7+ years of experience; specializes in Front-End Engineering. Here are the kind of services that I can provide for you:

- Building Web Apps: I have good experience in developing web apps with great UI/UX design. You can check my latest projects on my GitHub account to see what I can do. I'm an expert in Vanilla JS (ES6) / Webpack, and I also use React JS and Vue.js to speed up the development process. I love this field, and I don't stop learning.

Here are some links to my latest work:

Welcome to the club. The over-the-top reactions to events like this are what's going to get this guy re-elected.
And just look at how much simpler it is compared to modern kids programming materials. The code is denser but there's less of it, and far far less bootstrapping.

I think that is the killer right now, the amount of barriers to moving pixels on the screen is very high relative to how it was for us on the 8bits.
Inexplicably, I'm not entirely reassured.

Official economic dogma is that inflation is caused by pay rises. This has always been self-serving nonsense, but it's particularly unhelpful now because it disguises the real causes of commodity inflation - which is a combination of supply/demand shocks that spike the prices of essential commodities, combined with loss of trust in national currencies, often made worse by foreign debt obligations.

(Asset price inflation is a different thing, and is caused by too much cheap money pumping up the cost of rent-seeking assets - which happened after 2008. If you're on the wrong end of the rent-seeking process it's still price inflation, but it's usually considered a good thing rather than a bad thing in official figures.)

It should be obvious that there's a danger of at least some of the above. Down-to-the-bone commodities like food and medical supplies will become more expensive, and there may be some spill-over into industrial commodities.

Luxury and "entertainment" commodities - which have driven the Chinese economy - are going to take a severe hit, because part of their customer base is going to be wiped out financially.

Rent-seeking assets are probably going to have a bad time too. As is bricks and mortar retail. I'd expect a wave of bankruptcies and default among landlords at all level. Even those who own property free and clear may struggle.

tl;dr: A rebalancing away from luxury/investment/speculation towards basic essentials, which will spike in price, with a lot of collateral damage at all levels.
Five Rules for Writing a Good Book
I had Kaiser for many years and it was trash. Sure it's efficient and relatively cost effective, but the quality of service was terrible.
The worst part was if you needed anything mental health related, their services were so bad to the point of being virtually nonexistent.
Want to see a therapist? How about a group therapy session with 30 other people from 1-2pm every other Wednesday on the opposite side of town from where you work. Want to see a psychiatrist? Call five different numbers and wait for a few weeks for Kaiser to tell you tough shit.

Have an addiction problem and want treatment? Tough shit. It breaks my heart to think of the number of people who finally got to the point in their lives where they actively sought out help, only to be basically turned away by Kaiser. I would imagine many of those people never got a second chance.
Can we just get the 'color picker' option that exists on windows when you are using chrome/color key feature for 'green screen' effects?

Not having that on Linux when it exists on windows is frustrating.
By this logic GPS is "not secure" because the US government pays for that too.

But GPS receivers don't even have to transmit anything, they calculate your position by receiving broadcasts made by satellites with timestamps and calculating your position by triangulation based on how long it takes for messages from particular satellites to reach you. It would be difficult to have better security properties than this, which was done on purpose because the US military can't have the positions of their units leaking to the enemy.

We know this is true not just because their incentive are aligned but because the system's mechanism of operation is public and anybody who discovers a vulnerability can publish it. And so it is with Tor. The US government funds it because they use it, but it's also completely open source. If there is a vulnerability in it, as they say, PoC or GTFO.

Most vulnerabilities don't come from breaking GPS or Tor or AES. They come from, you have a suitably private way of calculating your position using GPS and then your phone takes that information and uploads it to The Cloud. They come from people visiting a website using Tor and then typing their name into it. They come from people uploading their TLS private key to a public repository, or generating it with a predictable random number generator.
That’s actually fairly standard naming in networking, like cat5 cables, cat5e is cat5 but after fixing a few bugs in the standard. Cat6 came out later and supersedes cat5 and cat5e.

Think of it like 6.1 instead of 6E. Minor revision to the existing standard.
The trick to manage the DOM with vanilla HTML is to not use HTML! Then abstract code into functions.
The advantage with modern JS frameworks is that they make it easier to handle state, and state handling is usually very hard. The trick to state handling in JavaScript is to make use of closures, to prevent the anti-pattern of global state where you don't know which functions change what state. The only function allowed to change the state should be function that created the element! This can be achieved with event listeners that listens for messages from the server.
but if we're going to insure them, shouldn't they pay proportionate taxes? it seems like these corporations weren't being taxed enough if they could give themselves such large payouts and then teeter and fall at the next downward trend.
Sometimes I question if people claiming vanilla is spaghetti have actually used vanilla in any meaningful way or if they are just parroting what others have said. I find that a lot of times, it's the latter...

For example, something that I've come to find cumbersome about frameworks is that expressing things in terms of states makes it more convoluted to express mutations. For example: in vanilla, one sensible unit of organization would be something like this:

const doThing => {
input.value = value;
input.focus();
sound.play();
}
button.onclick = doThing

Expressing `input.value = value` is what frameworks generally shine at, but expressing the method calls is usually clunky, since they represent effects and those can't really be expressed in terms of state snapshots. So, expressing them in a "frameworky" way usually just looks like some variation of this, but on top of some abstraction (think, e.g. React's useEffect nested anonymous functions + refs + probably context and a provider because you're not going to just initialize your sound manager in your component, right?).

I think frameworks are about colocating things in some specific way, and whether the colocation structure is "good" is largely a matter of herd acceptance. W/ older frameworks like Backbone and Angular, the focus was on colocating things to fit a MVC paradigm. And people were totally on board with that. With Redux, one colocates actions for a particular piece of state. And people sing their praises about this structure too.

With reaonably written vanilla JS, it's not that there's no colocation. One colocates mutations related to a single action. It may not be a "cool kid" organization structure, but it _is_ structure.

Of course, one can write bad vanilla JS, but that's also true about any framework.
So what if it's 1%. It's life. Nothing else matters.

Should we shut down the country and quarantine ourselves during every flu season? In an average year the flu kills about 0.01% of the population, and nothing else matters but trying to save those tens of thousands of people, right?
Can it also be argued that share buy backs mean they didn’t spend that money on staff, research and development, and growth efforts, and definitely didn’t save it for a rainy day. I don’t what the name for this would be, but it is a weird thing and the only thing that’s coming to mind is this:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_sheet_recession

It’s different but feels like a class of phenomena the private sector take part in.
"You could argue that would be better because it leaves it open for someone who needs it more." The generosity! Who could need it more than someone who literally does not have any job?
Dunno, for me he’s consistently brilliant. Even more so in comparison to many other elderly painters, who seem to keep painting the same painting, just shuffling a few bits here and there.
Hackercat the Emoji and Zero-Width Joiner Characters
The Trader Joe's near me took the most serious steps so far. They are limiting to 30 people in the store at a time and setup 'lanes' six feet apart for carts to lineup for checkout. When you checkout, they take the cart and have you stand back while they ring up and bag your stuff. When it's time to pay they back up from the register and let you pay and take your own receipt. I say these are the most serious steps because the other grocery stores near me haven't changed much of anything last time I went to them.

It was a little weird at first, but I am willing to go through whatever hoops to make the grocery workers comfortable.
Ratner’s Star
The vodka and ammo was a bit of the joke (though I think the saying goes that post-apocalypse currency is fuel, ammo and cigarettes).

I've stocked up a month ago for a minor supply chain disruption. But the more I read the news every day, the more it seems to me that it isn't going to be a minor disruption. I'm starting to worry about survival even if neither myself nor anyone around me actually catches COVID-19.
How many Nobel prizes have been so far? 120 or something like that. For more than a century of literature. By definition there will be great writers left out.

It is nobody's fault or bias.
From the article: "[White Noise]... represents better than any other literary text just how apocalyptic dread has become the inescapable ground note of everyday life."
The classic 'engineer wants to have fun' example also irks me. Most engineers want challenges (i.e. complex problems to solve), and the space to apply their knowledge and skills for mutual benefit (i.e. doing things right), they just happen to have fun while doing it. I imagine this is true for almost every technical profession.

The most recent U.K. Labour government also reintroduced national minimum wage, raised the zero-tax threshold, and passed the Human Rights Act and the Freedom of Information Act.

I don’t like everything they did, but they did do various things which supported worker rights.
I still wouldn't expect wages to rise just because.

And I'm not sure as far as an airline goes investment isn't going prevent any of this either.

I get the buyback problem, but laying people off who aren't working seems entirely disconnected from those topics.
Authentication is hard, but to be honest, building your own authorization framework is actually really easy in phoenix. Mine is about 80 LOC, and most of it came from the phauxth generator. Granted the default is rather broad, so I've added a few functions to handle some role specific stuff.
Usually, when a small business closes, it's often a sign that the niche it was trying to fill didn't exist, or that the business person is not skilled enough to make it work. A lot of these businesses permanently closing probably represent niches that may re-open relatively quickly, and had people skilled enough to keep it going. Restaurants may not bounce back 100%, but it's not like the market for restaurants is going to be indefinitely 10% of what it was in 2019.

We just don't know. We've never seen anything like this in the modern era.

I do suspect that we're going to see one of those generational shifts like the Great Depression, and a lot more businesses are going to start thinking in terms of "runway", and trying to keep around a few months of "runway" in the future.

Is that really freeing anything up, or just accelerating inheritance? It's not as though we'll find ourselves with a magical new land of free cash for all - it'll just get passed down as it was going to anyways. Boomers are already leaving the workforce in droves, I don't expect it'd be any sort of revolution.
I'm not qualified to give a long answer, but short answer (as far as I can tell): no
You should probably just look for a different job anyway... WFH or remote should be no different than working in an office if your company is focused on the right stuff.
I hope then someone in your team is responsible for continuously documenting these patterns, however trivial they may seem to the author. I use frameworks for their documentation more than anything else. Maybe it's the UK developer culture but I haven't come across any codebase that has even remotely useful documentation in the past five years in three jobs. These "intuitive patterns" only exist in the senior dev's head. New comers have to either constantly ask or figure it out slowly by going through source files. Homegrown "simple and intuitive" solutions only benefit the rockstar who wrote them, not the other members of the team who are there now and who will come after the rockstar is gone.

Please use well documented frameworks, otherwise we're trading away the entire teams productivity in favour of the rockstar to have his say.
I am a SWE at stenon [0], we make a portable nutrient analysis probe for agriculture. It is basically an electronic shovel that you stick in the ground, and you then can view a real time breakdown of bioavailable and mineral nutrient content of that soil on your phone or tablet.

I often say we're actually building three products, ML, hardware and software. It is pretty challenging but a lot of fun, and very rewarding.

Darn it. I just read most of that, and I didn't want to agree with his major points, but I ended up thinking he's mostly right.
How are they so late on this? I thought Bezos was going to be all over figuring out how to keep people working safely, that's going to be a huge factor in the success or failure of businesses going forward.
A recession is already guaranteed as it by definition is 2 consecutive quarters of contractionary gdp. Q1 and Q2 will both see negative growth. The real question here is when it will bottom and how quick the bounce back will be. So far the means of production have not been affected in manner that will permanently reduce their productivity. However the longer this healthcare crisis goes on the more likely that is to change. Right now it looks very likely that we are able to get people back to work fairly soon, especially now that testing capacity is ramping up so that resources are more efficiently allocated to mitigate the spread and mortality rate of this disease. Note this does not require a cure, but rather a rate of infection that does not overwhelm our healthcare systems, which is near term very solvable.
Good points. I would agree that when we do open up (which we will have to) it will be to a very different landscape of people who are much more cautious and have much less disposable income to spend. Without a vaccine, I would be think that infections around the world will keep bouncing around and reinfect countries without significantly coordinated efforts between countries to manage outbreaks or there would be long term shutdowns of trade, people flow amongst countries.

Basic did it first, including the structured programming variants like QBasic and Turbo Basic.

I see that from my historical experience.

Also we are moving goal posts here, I was quite explicit that Python is a good language for teaching programming.

What I am against is portraying as the one Language above anything else.
Author here. My take on this is that fail-closed is a vastly better security model than fail-open. I am genuinely surprised that OpenSSH actually issues certificates with no expiry date as a default.

If you have a certificate which expires within a day by default then an unsuccessful revocation is no longer a huge cause of stress. In the worst case, you lock down access to your bastions and disallow the issue of any future certificates for that user. Within a day, any potential threat from that certificate has vanished. This seems preferable to having a mandatory requirement of an up-to-date revocation database which is synced everywhere.
There is a lot more going on here than people getting termporarily sick and permanently dead. The economy is being transformed, in a not good way, in front of our eyes, and its only going to get worse over the next few months. 6.6 million new unemployment claims last week? How many restaurants & small business are going to be able to continue to pay their rent for the next 3+ months with next to no business? How many people are going to have their homes forclosed on them because they dont have a job and dont qualify for unemployment? The economic impact of what's happening right now is staggering, in a way that is not just going to fix itself once people stop being sick.
Even if I'm in the first group, I still need to know things like correct dosage, drug interactions, purity, etc in order to safely self-administer. I'm not quite sure where you would draw the line between "being educated" and "being protected from own stupidity"... Because to correctly self-administer you definitely need to be educated.

there's many ways to use unexpected income. share buybacks are one. lower prices and higher salaries are another. pretending that this is about cash reserves is a strawman.

if the company is going to depend on the public teet, it should bite when it isn't hungry.
Also, to use the example from the blog post, maybe the new reporting dashboard was an instance of a X/Y problem. Maybe the customer need something else, they don't quite know what yet.

Maybe they really do need the reporting dashboard, but can accept a workaround and a concrete timetable for when the new feature will be implemented.
Agree about portability issues. I cover only gawk, because I don't know all the differences between various versions. This started as a chapter in my command line text processing repo, where I cover various tools. I had come across various posts on stackoverflow/unix.stackexchange about implementation differences. I use Ubuntu, so I made a choice of sticking to GNU/Linux to make my life simpler.

I'm not sure about your point saying "only very minor enhancements". When I posted about my book on reddit, I got this comment [1] noting feature differences.

Also keep in mind that legalizing noncommercial infringement also legalizes noncommercial derivative works.

I think it's important to point out derivative works specifically because that doesn't necessarily follow. However, making money is also part of the point after terms expire.
