> One might argue there's no advantage to the company laying-off people, but they could save on the severance package, and frankly, two companies entering an understanding like this bodes well on other levels where someone could probably explore a "cross-company" job change with blessings of the employers on both sides of the table.

>If your testicles can be hit by a bouncing ball you should re-evaluate your jobsite wardrobe choices.

At this stage I'm at least 50% sure I'm conversing with GPT-3 now.

A man's testicles hang outside his body and, short of a cup or another hardened material in a dedicated protective shape, are exposed to the potential for impact with foreign objects.

If this isn't GPT-3 then I'd highly reinforce my suggestion to go see a physician about your "testicles". In the interim, may I be so bold as to suggest you consider changing your screenname to "mulmxn"?
Parenscript is nice because you don’t need complicated externs: it has a pretty straightforward mapping to JS symbols and no runtime. However, the downside is that it feels more like “JavaScript with a new syntax” than like Common Lisp or another lisp. I personally find the trade-offs acceptable because it’s fees fairly natural to right JS in a lispy style, but it’s not the “pure” experience of something like Clojurescript.
You cannot verify that Facebook will not change its product to malware in the future. That it to say, at some point, you trust the software publisher in the same way you trust the service operator.
Facebook created a platform which allows users to access information about others users who have agreed to be "friends". A third party then came along and asked users for the information which their friends gave them access to. The users gave the third party the data.

I'm not missing anything here, right?

If the third party should not have access to the data, then neither should the friends who gave it to them. Facebook is responsible for allowing the users access to the data.

If users should have access to the data, then it's the friends' fault for agreeing to be Facebook friends with those users in the first place. Alternatively, it's Facebooks fault for not making it clear what data is made available to friends.

Either way, I don't see how this is a problem with thr research group.

I guess you could argue that the data was still technically owned by the friends and therefore the users had no right to give it away. In which case the fault belongs to the users.
In the SFBA, it's almost mandatory for every company that I've interviewed at. (100+)

The rest of the country has high variance. It will also depend on the company you're targeting. A lot of target companies have a leetcode interview style (I presume every other interview style has too high of a pass rate).
The security example is a really interesting one because what you describe as a weakness of no-code viewed another way is a huge strength.

That is, an approach of the user not understanding these things and so deliberately going for a black box, just-works-in-exactly-this-way solution that's centrally tested, audited and maintained across the no-code platform is actually pretty great for security.

Having an understanding of how these things work, even a really good one, does not preclude mistakes if you want to do things customly - on the contrary this only ever increases the surface area for mistakes.

You might argue, and it often is argued in engineering (use the auth provided by your framework, well-trusted ecosystem libraries, etc), that it's better to just rely on known good solutions even when you do have a great understanding of the principles for this reason.

> Nevertheless, as with many frameworks, it gets awkward when you move too far away from the 'intended use cases'

Right. And that probably applies to many, if not all frameworks, by virtue (vice?) of their design. I don't know Mendix, but I've worked on programming frameworks like Rails, Flask and others, including some in-house company proprietary ones. You sometimes have to work around their limitations with custom code, awkwardly, even Rube Goldberg style at times.

And there can be instances or even categories of apps that can't be done using the framework at all.

The framework giveth and the framework taketh away.

There's a Youtube channel (Historical Italian Cooking) that deals in ancient Italian cooking and, while it seems really interesting, I unfortunately can't clearly understand the host due to his accent and intonation. I speak Italian so it's somehow doubly frustrating but, regardless, I plan to power through some videos and try some out soon.

Here's an example, of Medieval pizza:

1. ZFC is fairly "obvious" when taught the right way. Unfortunately, most people do have not the privilege of a good set theory instructor.

3. I'm not sure what reasons you're referring to; can you enlighten me? I can guess, but the ones I'm guessing are not very good, and I'd rather not attribute weak arguments to you or them.

Even bigger issue than base rate is that this is a retrospective study, so I suspect heavy measurement bias. Patients that are likely to have a Vitamin D level checked are different than hospitalized patients. Vitamin D levels are not checked routinely in hospitalized patients. I know this because I'm a hospitalist, but also because during the height of the local pandemic this 900+ bed hospital only had 216 patients with a vitamin D level checked. Presumably at least 1000 COVID patients moved through that hospital during this time, more likely several thousand.
The article keeps on saying that make is "complicated" ... make is an abomination in many, many ways, but claiming that Makefile language is complicated is just sheer ignorance.
2-3kWh seemed impossibly low to me, so I checked, and yup, that’s amazing.

A phone battery at 5V and 2500mAh (probably about the average) is approximately 12.5Wh of energy storage. Even if you used the entire battery every day, we’re talking 4kW per year, costing ~60¢ in the US.

Your phone battery could only power a standard 60W incandescent lightbulb for 12 minutes, but powers your phone for hours. That’s amazing!

I have been that boss. Is that you, Wendel? In any case: the deletion even had a "type your app name to confirm" prompt, but I knew I wanted to act on production; the issue was deleting the wrong one of multiple production databases.

Yes!

I moved internationally in 2012 and, knowing no-one in my new city, promptly volunteered to organise the local chapter of a popular developer meetup. I met dozens of friends and future colleagues at those monthly meets. Almost immediately I got a job with the outgoing organiser, and a couple of years later I recruited the core of a greenfield team from the regular attendees. One of them wasn't even working professionally with the language, but it was clear from talking to them and seeing their code they had potential. Moreover they were a really decent yet introverted person who just needed a break. I loved working with them and was proud to watch them grow into a truly accomplished yet extremely humble engineer. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat.

Another: my department was made redundant in March (great timing), but I immediately picked up contract work with a friend I first worked alongside many years ago. I've hired him into multiple roles in the interim with great success... and now I get to help build his business. We trust each other to be candid and know each others strengths and weaknesses (technically and personally) and he pays me on time. It's great.

Another: we needed a QA for my last team and one of our senior devs recommended someone from an old workplace. Feels bad saying it now, but with no experience of our toolset or domain we'd never have given their resume a second look. But good QAs are hard to find and we were desperate, so after a promising interview we hired them on a trial. Couldn’t have gone better - obliging, a quick study, and a knack for surfacing esoteric bugs. They went on to lead QA for our company.

Referrals and “the network” can work to your advantage.

Yet... when growing my last team I’d exhausted that network, so we advertised on StackOverflow. Amongst many applications were from two "developer famous" people I knew by reputation (twitter, conference talks, blog posts, book authorship etc). Our whiteboard-free process was a friendly interview followed by a small take-home code challenge. One came was arrogant and dismissive and said had neither the time nor inclination for take-home projects. While the other was gregarious, gracious and completed the task without fuss. Guess who we hired? They were technical mentor to virtually everyone on the team (myself included) and were instrumental in laying a solid architectural foundation of our product.

While I’ve plenty of “war stories”, it really is nice to remember how many gracious, friendly and deeply competent people I’ve worked with over the years.

I disagree, it's possible to find hacks to change your own behavior and even how your body works, these hacks can then turn into habits and long-lasting behavior.
Your points are not analogous to my argument which suggests you don't really understand it. Wheels can have continuous angular velocity which cashes out the continuous speed of a car. I don't preclude collections of parts from correlated behavior, which is what a rotating tire is. A road in contact with a tire is interacting with the complex of correlated parts and so the road's perspective of the tire is that of a unified whole. Similarly, our perspective of a table is that of a unified whole due to electromagnetic forces that keeps the dynamics of the constituent molecules highly correlated and our inability to perceive the seams between the parts (without the aid of tools). But when it comes to consciousness, there is no perceiver distinct from the perception, and so you cannot rely on such a distinction to cash out the apparent unified whole of consciousness.
You're assuming those laws were passed with the public in mind.

Instead of getting away from code, why not try to make code simpler? Let the businesspeople write scripts in BASIC, and keep them away from the messy Python and JavaScript.
You can definitely do this to all of them at the same time. And only one would survive. Why? Because out of sync does not mean the out of sync frequency is the same to all of them. SO you have machine1 at 70 HZ, machine 2 at 30 HZ and so on. Connect all them together out of sync in the grid and you get them all fight each other. Do this maliciously 10 times and in under a minute all but one are totaled, like the one in the video from article.
The proposed benefit of the legislation that takes these companies into responsibility is, depending on what political camp you're in, either reducing hate speech on digital platforms or reducing arbitrary censorship.

Debatable on either front but pretty tangible in either case. It's not even clear what the first amendment means in this context because it can be evoked on either side, the freedom of private platforms to moderate as they see fit or the freedoms of users to speak on essential infrastructure.

I do agree it’s an interesting concept, but I think there’s more going on, too.
Top speed in today's world is irrelevant, unless you are a professional race-car driver and drive on designated race-tracks.

The roads of today are too regulated, too crowded, and too poor in quality to make driving at anywhere near top-speed a virtual impossibility.

The last time I looked at doing this, I reached 200kph but had to slow down because the road wasn't good enough (too narrow, too rough, too curvy) or clear enough (visibility ahead impeded by terrain) to continue. That was 10 years and 4 cars ago.

I disagree with the many/most. Many/most are probably using uBlock Origin, which doesn’t try to prevent things like blocking pasting (to my knowledge). I’m sure some are using NoScript-like features... but that’s not the same as specifically preventing websites from preventing paste. It’s just a sledgehammer. I can’t name an extension to do that one task (and/or similar tasks) off the top of my head, and I’m reasonably familiar with discussions in these parts. uBlock Origin is known to be very popular, unlike an obscure “allow paste” extension. But, that’s just like, my opinion... as they say.

The point I was making is that copying and pasting seems like more effort than just typing the repo name. Do you commonly encounter long, inscrutable repo names? Do you delete repos frequently enough to have built up the habit of copying and pasting the repo name into the delete box?

If it is common enough, disabling paste would actually benefit the user based on the premise of the article.

I had also avoided modern web up until very recently. I focused only on Django sites and wrote custom JavaScript as necessary.

I even did a 3 month django project with a view that was almost entirely JavaScript—it would have been a perfect candidate for react but I refused.

As a compromise with myself I used es6 js on that and eliminated use of jQuery from my code.

About a month ago I started work on react. I had very similar feelings going in and was annoyed at having to figure out the node dependency thing.
And I was aghast at the “tool chain” which is the post processing you need to do on React and other modern front end.

However, I was really surprised at how much better it is to build front end using this rather than html templates and sprinkles of js.

I was also surprised to find out that the django community barely has a pulse compared to what is happening in react.

It’s safe back there, but there is no innovation. Once you see what is happening in modern web, it feels like a ghost town.

I think it’s a pretty good time to get into React right now. CRA just got an update, functional components are mainstream and now there is this nextjs.

I encourage you to give react a try, at the very least it will make you think more about why you’re building the way you are.
What use cases does that cover though that Hugo and Jekyll can't? For landing pages and typical business websites for example, some basic ways to create reusable snippets of HTML feel enough for me. I don't want to have to deal with a lot of React, SPA stuff and JavaScript build issues unless it's really worth it.
