I didn't see any mention of encryption. Wouldn't this mean that data is flowing unencrypted between you and the proxy, even if you are visiting an HTTPS site, thus defeating the whole purpose of HTTPS? And without even any indication in the browser that you are doing so.
It's possible to set up a proxy over HTTPS, but it's a much more involved process.

> Asking people to use TDD for a coding test is probably a bit much since it takes a long time to learn the ins and outs,

This hits close to home for me, I was very recently rejected at an interview (a 1 hour pair programming session), because my approach to fixing the algorithm was 'not TDD enough'.

I think that it's really dumb to expect people to go full on TDD in an interview session, where the purpose would ostensibly be too demonstrate analytical and programming ability. Couple that with the fact that they didn't even tell me that there was going to be an emphasis on TDD, it basically amounted to wasting about 3 days of my time for the entire interview process.

It is unfair that companies can unilaterally make such demands on your time, while themselves not spending more than a few hours.

> if the app made sense and the code was readable, even if in a very different style than what we were used to, we would be up to talking more and asking the applicant about it

Not sure what "style" means here, but this seems strange. Why does the author need to say this / why should style matter?

It sounds like the habit of the candidate about the position of braces had an influence on their hiring process, and after giving it some thought, they decided against it. This is the lowest signal one could possibly imagine.

People on "temporary layoff" are not counted as "unemployed" even though a quoted study says 42% of those won't be able to return to their old job, and "If you are out of work but didn’t look for a job over the previous four weeks, or couldn’t work for family reasons such as caring for children who are no longer in school, BLS says you are out of the labor force. If you’re not in the labor force, you’re not unemployed.".

Typical games with statistics. The same has been happening in other countries as well, refined over the years.
Maybe there are some places that require everything you've listed (open source repos, take-home project, whiteboard coding). But I think many, or maybe most, only require one of them.

At the end of the day, I'm sure we've all met someone that justifies requiring sight of some sort of code of the candidate before hiring them. But different people will find different types of coding test better or worse ("I don't want to spend loads of my free time on a take-home project" vs "I can't code under pressure in front of a white board even though I'm great at coding in general"). So Hacker News will always be filled with endless debate trashing all forms of assessment with no agreement on what to use instead.
There are a lot of different approaches here. Some of it stylistic.

If you've ever played an Elderscrolls game:

do you repeatedly mash quicksave

save every milestone

save every x minutes of play

I'm sure amongst the people who code and play RPGs this will surface the different attitudes to this.

From a workflow perspective there are commits per feature/story, or commits per working unit of code (maybe TDD influenced), commit per decision, commit per unit time (commit at lunch or end of day)

Interestingly, with git you can kind of have your cake and eat it and achieve a mixture of all of those through rebasing.

From a professional point of view your git history is a valuable artifact of your development so having a clear and well documented history is a good working practice as some teams like git being a source of truth for a project.

Small and tasteful commits can be valuable in taking a newcomer through a codebase as some people like to read a codebase from its git history as it can be quite a useful contextual annotation of the evolution of the codebase - HEAD is only a projection of the final state of that and loses a lot of the journey.

So there are git commits for the reader and there are git commits for the writer. The workflows may not always be the same but they also don't necessarily need to extremely tightly coupled. Of course if you can find a happy medium of the two then you're winning.

EDIT

In the case of a hiring code test, the projects are (hopefully) small so sometimes the commits may feel a little contrived, but so is the whole exercise of a coding test.

That said if you personally value clean git history as something in your own ideals of code quality, it is worth communicating that through smaller commits in your code test for your candidate employer. Much like unit testing or documentation are signals of quality outside of the code itself.

These are part of the day job as much as slinging code or churning out features are (depending on the role)

I feel like it comes back down to the ethics. A lawyer should not accept the case, because they should know the case is not valid, but they do it regardless. If there was a repercussion for accepting too many invalid cases or suing people for not legal grounds, they would stop doing that.

But, that is not going to happen obviously.
I can totally agree with this. Most of my customers that I see struggling with K8s are those that haven't internalized 12-factor principles: not just heard, read or understood, but really internalized. It is unfortunate that K8s talks / blob posts / articles do not focus enough on this pre-requisite.

Here are things I have had CS grads demonstrate an inability to do within an hour or more timeframe:

Make a loop that sums up numbers in an array.

Write an algorithm that sorts a list of three numbers. I watched students spend an hour making a bunch of if statements to try and cover all cases... ultimately getting it wrong.

Compute the accuracy by computing the number of matches between two lists and dividing between the length.

Split a list into two lists.

Generally the failure mode is to find something vaguely near the task, but overly-sophisticated from google. Then wrestle with trying to hack it into working by frantically scouring stackoverflow etc for their next code adjustment.

> The standard argument is that you want to incentivize employers to train employees.

Charge tuition for training and offer "student loans" with no payments or interest while you're working for the company which are forgiven if you stay for five years or whatever. Then if somebody wants to poach you right away, that's fine, they can just pay off your training loan.

Drive to Work [1] is a great podcast. Most of it is, of course, about MtG, but there are a lot of episodes about various things like writing, creativity, or communication. Mark Rosewater is the head designer, which means that he is responsible for creating the general structure of a set [2] and not the various stages of fine tuning that happen later on.

So there is a lot of content about designing for humans and little about detailed number-crunching and game balance.

He also explains most terminology and concepts, so a passing familiarity should be more than enough to understand the MtG-related content.

Also, no ads.

You need rigorous tests anyway. Typescript is checking types only at compile time if I'm not mistaken and what it detects is only a set of problems. Yes it's nice that you can detect some types errors thanks to typescript, but is the development overhead worth it? With eslint, sonarqube, and tests, I think typescript is not that useful and annoying to use.

For example I contributed to Typescript's definitely typed project in the past. To make typescript more useful. But I ended up spending so much time writing type definitions. After all, I rather have some NaN or "undefined is not a function" exceptions during development.
My linux-desktop systems get better smoothness and less troubles every time I disable swap.
Moving .xsessionerrors to ramdisk also helps a lot.

Linux memory management on desktop is broken and only suits server environment.

Also there is no linux distro that can protect essential libraries from swapping and when RAM is fully consumed system just became unresponsive.

CGroups actually can solve this, but it need big amount of work to properly tweak cgroups for every essentioal package in distribution. Probably.
"Delight" consumers was used 34 times in their S1. "Delighting" customers seems to be the new hip way to describe what SAAS companies should do these days.

There are two useful features I've found to be rare among markdown editors:

1) Inline application of markup. Discord does this for example. If you write text like this, the message preview retains the '*'s, but the text inside is italisized.

2) Persistence of text formatting when pasting from rich text. Roam Research does this. If I'm copying-and-pasting some rich text with e.g. a link in it, the link will be converted to the markdown format and then pasted.

I think to have a truly great markdown editor you need both of these things, but I've never seen an open source one with support for both. I've had a mind to find one and implement them myself, I might try that with tail.writer.

The problem is that OP is dealing with work where design is the hard problem.

They need to do prototyping without considering all of the faults of their programming language, all of the concurrency bugs they could make, and all of the logical errors they could make.

TDD falls apart here because TDD helps you write code that does what you think it does. When you don't even know whether it's possible to implement what you want to implement, TDD doesn't help.

I think the TDD model of implementation is a lot better than most sloppy dev workflows I've seen, but I agree with OP that small commits don't work out in this case. When you aren't sure whether something is possible, you need to stay less detail-oriented. To do so, you switch from TDD mode to prototyping mode.

Personally, I have so little faith in my prototype code that I always rewrite it.
ArXiv has the LaTeX source for most of the papers they host. They could compile it to HTML, but it might be quite difficult in some cases.

My schadenfreude regarding Android is that some Kotlin cool library on the JVM ends up requiring Java 8+ features and then all those #KotlinFirst heads on Android will finally get it why compatibility with newer versions is a must.

However most likely what will happen is some fork to make it somehow work on Android, even if with less features.
How Does Granite Male Enhancement Work?
The Granite Male Enhancement pill is not just a pill for me. I call it my life savior. The pill not only impacted my sexual life, but it also impacted mine all over health and mood. Before using the pill, I was almost depressed, and I usually got panic attacks, thinking about how I am unable to perform poorly in bed. But, when my wife recommended this product to me, I was elated. I have been using the pill for almost 3-months now, and trust me; it is very effective. I always find myself happy, as per my wife, I perform well, and we have a better relationship now.Click Here https://www.marketwatch.com/press-release/granite-male-enhan...

It's not unlikely, in fact it's expected.

The hypothesis of a virus circulating in August which eventually evolved into what is now SARS-CoV-2 is probably likely (and surely more convenient), rather than the alternative hypothesis of a virus suddenly emerging perfectly adapted to humans and human-human transmission close to a laboratory that studies and specialises in such viruses.

Yeah, live transcripting is one of those jobs that can be easily done remotely, at scale, and crowdsourced; if one sentence is transcripted by two or three people, you can do error correction / checking as well (or just show the different interpretations). Transcripts for radio comms are important because they can be used in legal proceedings. Same with e.g. bodycam footage.
I actually have a particular use case for not adding one - as a running joke I changed my Signal name to the screen name of a buddy that went AWOL. Adding a last name doesn’t work in this model.

So it’s not just about not wanting to share information, but it ruins a joke in the group chat I primarily use Signal for :/

To top it off, it specifically says it’s optional. But you get reminded every week to add one... but it’s totally optional.

Pinnacle of devops effort to deliver apps before Kubernetes was AWS Beanstalk, which their setup replicates in great detail.

I'd take k8s over Beanstalk any time.

Kubernetes is not about scale, it is about defining primitives, everybody can use to describe their setup. It is a DSL everyone converges to and as a result of this unification products from different vendors can be packaged and deployed in the uniform way.
