> Raising small children in an apartment can be pretty stressful

this is precisely the entitlement I was hinting at - I was raised in an apartment - lots of my friends have been raised in apartments - I do live in an appartment (*1984) and we have many neighboors with children in our apartment building.

It is absolutely possible and also very humane indeed also to raise children in an apartment.

> But: apartments also aren't available! They're just as appealing to the downsizing boomer.

And this is just expressing the sad state of the US. The reason why there aren't enough apartments is not b/c of the babyboomers (also not b/c of migrants and Mexicans) - it's b/c your government fails to build them (I'm from Germany). Now you are stuck with a market in favor of people renting out own flats.

> Where will they work?

Not build at all - just live in an apartment or not move to super-hot-spot areas like LA or NY. If you can afford to build a house you can afford a car and you have to commute.
I can't look at the word "toot" without being reminded of a terrible, terrible Alvin and the Chipmunks song where it's an euphemism for farts.

> 3. present features that let customer think about benefits -> sell products.

I see this trend and it actually makes me furious. If I want to buy a GPU, I want to see the stats and how it compares to other products, not how many headshots i can make with that particular GPU.

I'll see these ads on billboards, on tv etc and think of the greasy marketing people that want to trick me into buying their stuff.

If the ads are to obnoxious I'll actually make an effort to avoid that brand ( looking at you Apple and Coca-Cola)

Ignoring people who need to control what leaves their systems for legal reasons I always find it odd how much the hardcore Windows users freak out over stuff like this.

I mean you trust your entire digital life to this OS yet the idea of analytics being sent back to the people who made the OS terrifies you? They also seem to freak out and declare certain versions near unusable when I've recently started using Win 10 after not using Windows since Win 2K and honestly it's 90% the same thing to me.

Also interested as to how many people freaking out over telemetry use Google software.

You already don't need to do that. Intel and AMD's open-source drivers are included in the kernel and nVidia's driver can be installed without recompiling the kernel.
It took me bloody ages to find the toggle that allows Google Now to be used on an Android device tied to a G Suite account. We don't even manage our devices.

Turns out it's something to do with enabling support for the activity log or something. That was a fun few hours.

I also love how no matter what Google site I'm using, it's signed into the wrong account. It's almost comical.

And I believe you. I still don't think that's a problem exclusive to Node. I've seen godawful, naive, insecure codebases written in C, C++ and PHP. I've talked to co-workers about similar experiences in Python, ColdFusion ...

I very much doubt that you could support this statement. The geological record shows huge variations in sea-level, sometimes much higher than now, without any massive extinction.

There's a load of frameworks for marketing stuff, I tend to rely on two of them: EBF or BAB.

EBF. Emotions, benefits, features. You spark a feeling within someone, whether it's presenting them with the pain they feel or showing them their life a bit better ("my mobile pictures are crap" / "Dave's doggie photos always look on point").

Then you say, well, "this new phone can take awesome photos".

The feature will be "16MP, autofocus etc..." to ground the ethereal feelings to tangibles to make it real for people.

Then BAB. B(efore), A(fter), B(ridge). Frame someone's life before your product, then what their life will be like afterwards, and then the bridge is your product, linking the before and after.
"Fed up of blurry, out of focus mobile pictures? Picture this - all of your Instagram lunchtime shots hitting the trending list. Make it happen with the 16MP camera in the Piphoxel."

It has a type system, just a differently structured one to support its goals.

Oh goodness, I'm glad someone found this intriguing, I think I came across as a bit self-promotional before :o

It was mainly accidental that I got into digital learning. I was pretty traumatised from my degree, even today I still feel irrationally reluctant to code.

But I've always been passionate about design and education. I also wanted to "self-heal" if you like, to repair myself as a person and as a learner. And what better way than to learn how to learn and teach??

One of the best parts of my job is I can get away with being "dummy". I tell my subject matter experts that it's helpful to assume this position, so I can be empathic to all types of learners, but really I'm a slow learner myself haha. And yes you do end up designing better eLearning! Being in Learning And Development also gives a good overview of the whole organisation, as you need to understand how it works and where the gaps are in order to tackle them with training (or not.) I learnt a lot, and dare I say I am much more confident as learner, teacher and professional.

Lately though I've been feeling that I have a debt to pay. I consider myself lucky to "survive" depression, and to live in a good country with lots of opportunities. So I am moving to my own edtech project focusing on literacy for children, with lots of interactive eBooks :)) I do have a backup remote gig though.

If you're really interested, google up "Instructional Design" and "eLearning" just to get a flavour of the field. As I said, there are WYSIWYG tools but increasingly organisations are moving towards mobile-friendly courses, which is great news for developers as it means more coding opportunities. Have a look at "Adapt", an open source authoring tool which requires a bit of HTML/ JavaScript knowledge. "Unity" is also increasingly being used ... and there's a growing trend for VR learning.

Hope that's helpful, if not just email me via my profile.

It is pretty straightforward to write an automated tool to convert one syntax into another one.
I'm developing a web app that can be installed via the G Suite Marketplace. They also have an 'Integrate with Google' button that we can put on our website so users can just install/grant permissions from there - sounds great - in principle. Except the users don't have any way of choosing which account it uses. So if they happened to log into their personal Gmail account before their work G Suite account, well, then they're just shit out of luck and can't install. I asked about a fix (e.g. a 'select account' box like you get when logging in) on StackOverflow and filed a report on their developer support site - of course, this being Google, there's been no answer more than a month later, and I doubt there ever will be...

Anyways, in the meantime, the only thing we can do is pretend that button doesn't exist and instead direct users to the marketplace to install. Except, since our app is only installable by G Suite admins, if you happened to log into your personal Gmail account first, our listing is not even visible...

Google's whole account situation is a dumpster fire - and don't even get me started on the APIs they have on G Suite, that seem to have grown organically out of an 'admins would like to script a bit with the data'-use case and only added 3rd party apps as an afterthought. I wonder if the G Suite team is just chronically understaffed and underfunded or if they just don't realize how broken the whole thing is.

> I'm sorry to be blunt, but if this is the case then your skills are very much rock bottom.

Job-finding skills, maybe. But those don't necessarily correlate with job-doing skills. All of my job searches have been >3 months ("Absurd! In this job market?! You must be awful."), yet managers have made it clear to me that they've been extremely satisfied with my work.

OP, if you're anything like me, you need interview practice and networking.

* Interview practice is easy. Drill yourself over and over and over until you're comfortable with the kind of things that get asked during interviews. Then, once you're comfortable, find someone to do mock interviews with you.

* Networking is hard. Your best option is to talk to people you previously worked with and let them know you're looking for a job. If you're not in contact with former coworkers, try going to programming meetups and talking with people.

It's utterly hopeless trying to communicate with climate change deniers. It has the opposite of the intended effect -- if you're the opposition and you're unhappy, they must be doing something right.
You should try D. It's pretty much C with some weirdness fixed and OOP added on. Do mind that it's not a weak language, D has some very simple but extremely powerful features that plain C doesn't have, or that C++ has in a too complex way.
Although these tools are great, I'm afraid these are of limited use, as these aren't preinstalled but must be explicitly installed.

For personal use these are great. But if you write a shell script to be executed on different machines where you can't install anything, these tools won't be available to you.

And if you don't have that requirement, i.e. you can install everything, just install appropriate Perl/Python/Ruby libraries and use a proper scripting language.

(BTW, I tend to assume that Python is installed on almost all modern Unix systems by default, hence I prefer writing portable tools in Python instead of portable Shell code.)

Has This Silicon Valley Startup Finally Nailed the Indoor Farming Model?
Assuming you write code for a living, most hiring managers (even big 5 hiring managers) care far less about your work history than you'd imagine- it's merely a means to an end, the end being how well it applies to the skill sets (keywords) needed for the job you're applying for.

Assuming you're not living in a backwater, getting to phone screens should be pretty easy; if you're willing to commit 4-5 hours onsite per opportunity, the odds favor your landing one in the first 10 onsites. Big co's are different from startups, but not as much as you might think going in.

I like how some people consider 100 people a small startup (kind of like how 250 employees is still according to the US government a small business). Maybe my views are out of the mainstream, but I'd say 20 is a better threshold for small.
We've been developing on GraphQL internally for the past year, releasing our public preview on September 14th of last year: https://githubengineering.com/the-github-graphql-api/

All new features at GitHub are now developed with GraphQL first which means integrators will have access to the same API that we built the feature on once it ships.

If you want to learn more, one of our engineers just spoke at GraphQL Europe yesterday detailing our experiences with GraphQL thus far, here are his slides: https://speakerdeck.com/bswinnerton/launching-githubs-public...

Highlights from Mini Habits by Stephen Guise
GraphQL is a method of creating APIs for consumption by e.g. JavaScript apps or mobile apps that is gaining popularity at the moment. So it can be seen as a successor to REST. It gives you a pretty easy query language to specify which data on which objects you are interested in and that data is then fetched for you. An example could be a React app where each component specifies which data it needs to work on, and then when a page is loaded, all of the rendered component's queries are merged into a single query that fetches all the data in one go.
