How does this apply to switching teams within a company?

Currently on my first real job out of college and after 6 months not really feeling this team. I know Amazon has more dev-ops work than most companies for SDEs, but my current team feels like it has too much. I don't feel I'm actually learning much about programming or software design.

I am considering switching teams to try and find something a bit more programming focused. Interested in hearing feedback.

This is possibly misleading as this 20-Person company is obviously not yet at a phase where they have a mature customer acquisition pipeline. It's obvious because they're on basic or free tiers for all these services.

As soon as they try to land a customer with any sort of compliance requirements, the pricing tiers on nearly all these SaaS plans will jump significantly. It's unrealistic to expect to pay less than one full time employee for basically all your supporting infrastructure.

SaaS is definitely great to start out, as demonstrated here, but the danger is lock-in and expense creep, which can kill otherwise strong companies. Burn cash to accelerate but always have an escape hatch ready for when you need to tighten the purse strings.

Thanks.

Yeah, that doesn't sound quite right. There must have been some approach to Intel, but that particular complaint applies to the 8086 not the 286. There was certainly a big emphasis on memory bandwidth at Acorn. There's a video by Sophie Wilson (who I knew pre-Sophie - worked with her to reuse BBC BASIC floating point libary for ISO Pascal) describing how Acorn found that, across various process architectures being evaluated, performance was directly related to instruction fetch speed regardless of how that broke down in terms of clock speed, bus width or cycles per instruction.

Acorn had of course been experimenting with most of the next-gen processors at the time, and put out a few in "2nd processor" form before a bit later repackaging them as the Acorn Business Computer series. There was actually a prototype 286-based version of the business computer, but by then the ARM was already being developed.

I don't recall hearing anything about the 286 being evaluated by Acorn the time (I was there from 82-85). It's interesting that the 286 and Nat Semi 16032 both came out in '82, and Acorn chose to go with the 16032 as a 2nd processor (I still have one - did some work on PANOS) rather than the 286. Perhaps this is the time frame Hermann is talking about? The "If Intel hadn't rejected us, there'd have been no ARM" story it cute to make Intel look foolish, but it's not obvious that a 286 2nd processor would have curtailed ARM development anymore than the 16032 had.
Apple will definitely take the more casual part of the market, the folks going on day hikes. But Garmin will I think stay king among the more serious hikers. The battery life is the Achilles heel of the Apple Watch, it really needs to be at least ~3 days long before anyone serious is even going to consider it.
Drawing up a component is quick, sure. Measuring and specifying is not as quick and easy, and you won't necessarily have appropriate metrology equipment or trained personnel on site.

Meritocracy Is vital
In a world of billions of individuals you can always find some that believes in whatever it is you're looking for people to believe.

OP's point as I read it is that once those beliefs hit a critical mass amongst the general population they tend to come true via self fulfilling prophecy. Correlation/causation aside - the point is not "if my uncle thinks a recession is coming, there is", it's "if 100mm American adults think a recession is coming, there is"

I thought it would be fun to learn physics after reading some pop Sci books and basically struggled with what this article mentions.

Physics on and level deeper then some small books is academic and in my 30s I realized I need to learn or relearn algebra tricks, multiple calculus courses and maybe even differential equations before I even start to get to physics. And to do that I need to work through basic physics before I can get to anything current. After seeing all this work I ran into the next thing the article mentions, it's a lot of work to do just satisfy some curiosity, I'll never do research, test any ideas or go anywhere with those knowledge if I can even obtain it.
That's a mighty stretch you try to construct. Born in Poland, lived in Poland, just had the bad luck for being there during times when soviets cough cough russians were taking whatever want, and terrorizing the rest.

For most Polish people this would be quite an insult even disregarding current war waged by russia just next to them, which is pretty much impossible to ignore if you live there.

Yep, it's around 60 bucks per person per month. Compared to a developer salary of around 6000$/M (in central Europe) it's not even 1% of the salary cost per person. A hand-wavey calculation I know, most developers in the US make more than that, there are additional costs per person and there are not only developers in an organization that size. But All in all, it's not that much...

Microsoft Outlook and live.com logins can use security keys, in fact they are accepted as a single authentication factor rather than a second one: supply your Yubikey and you're logged in without username or password!

However, Windows Hello in Windows 10 does not support local logins with security keys. This may have changed last week with a recent update, but it definitely wasn't supported when I installed Windows last Christmas.

I think it's Microsoft's opinion that security keys are too secure for consumer use; if a consumer is locked out of their personal device due to mismanagement, theft or loss of a hardware key, that's a support headache and liability burden that they're unwilling to take on at this point.
yes that's me, how comes?
The situation is similar to that of the logarithm and exponential functions[0].

There’s a log2 function and a log10 function and they are both useful. But when we talk about the log() function there can be no doubt that it is to base e.

If you want to define a sinT() function that works in turns then that’s totally fine. But the sin() function is defined as taking an argument scaled in radians, because it is mathematically natural.

Mathematically speaking, all trig functions are in radians. When you write sin(90°) the degree symbol ° is a conversion factor. I blame calculators for confusing high schoolers into believing that there is a separate set of functions that work in degrees.

[0] unsurprisingly because Euler’s formula equates the trigonometric and exponential functions.

Great. The EU works on the same principle, that's why they aren't giving the UK the terms they want. Because those other 27 member states still in the EU are still sovereign and have agreed to negotiate as a bloc. Hell, most of the antidemocratic features of the EU boil down to "the EU is accountable to member states first because member states did not surrender sovereignty when joining the union".

Y'know what we call countries who think their right to self-determination overrides others? We call them paraiahs, or war criminals if they really push the issue.

> Wow, you must be a hit at parties.

Ad hominem attack.

> The way I phrased that sentence is how some some dialects of English, like the one I speak, express agreement. Consider it shorthand for "I agree,".

There is no English dialect that does not include the adverb, "yeah," etymologically formed from drawling the affirmation, "yes," colloquially and informally. More often, however, "yeah" is employed as a common filler in the same way as, "um," or "uh," used as a pause to think when not finished speaking, as such, when written, it is meaningless and superfluous. In modern usage, however, it may most often be correctly replaced with the phrase, "as a Millennial, I informally affirm."

> And perhaps consider the limits of your experiences and that wisdom is (partially) knowing what you don't know, and not attempting to speak with authority in such areas.

Ad hominem attack.

> In wording my response to you, I've deliberately avoided other expressions from my dialect that may confuse you, but are very applicable. Like "twat" or "tosser", or "tu meke".

Ad hominem attack.

> Yeah, nah. Thanks for contributing nothing that a basic Google of "Jesus Yeshua" wouldn't have.

Contradiction of informal colloquialisms and an ad hominem attack.

> In my dialect, "yeah, nah" often means "I'm experiencing fremdschämen".

False. An affirmative placed with a negative is a contradiction, but the assertion here is a clumsy ad hominem attack.

> You're going to need an awful lot of citations there.

While I agree with anjbe that this is moving the goalposts, it is also an ad hominem attack.

> Firstly, define the scholars you're referring to.

While I have not referred to any particular scholars, making your employment of such a straw man, I would define scholars in the ordinary sense as academics.

> Also, what sources are they working from?

This is further development of the previous straw man.

> Josephus, the closest there is to a contemporaneous source, doesn't mention baptism. Neither do Seutonius, Pliny the Younger, Mara bar-Serapion or Tacitus.

Though this is a continuation of the previous straw man argument, in fact, the closest contemporaneous sources, in chronological order, are the letters of Paul, the Gospel of Mark, the Gospels of Luke and Matthew, Acts of the Apostles, and the Gospel of John.

> Maybe the scholars you refer to are extrapolating from the title "Anointed", or from the fact that, gosh, if you're saying this Jesus is sinless, and baptism is for the remission of sins, then why would you include a story in your holy writings that Jesus was baptised? It makes no sense, so you must've included it to be historically correct! Also known as proof by mortification. Or maybe, you're just referencing crap you garnered from a 5 minute speed read of Wikipedia that really needs more citations? Who knows? Tu meke au.

It its entirety, this is a straw man argument which happens to include ad hominems.

Based on the title I thought this was going to be an article ridiculing companies with this number of SaaS services.

It feels like they're really stretching the number of tools they're using for this article. I find it hard to believe they're actually using all these tools on a regular basis.

Excalidraw (???), multiple analytics tools, multiple hosting providers, Cloudflare, Algolia (Their docs appear to be using Docusaurus which comes with Algolia out of the box, so ???), multiple messaging tools, +more.

The team is putting up a minimum of 10 PRs a day? How do they have time to put up so many PRs and then also review other people's? These PRs must be tiny.
If you are making something like a game engine using computer hardware from the past 30 years, you should avoid angle measures to the extent possible.

It is much computationally cheaper and more robust (and easier to reason about) to use vector algebra throughout. Then you have no transcendental functions, just basic arithmetic and the occasional square root. You need the dot product and the wedge product (or combined, the geometric product), and derived concepts like vector projection and rejection.

If you need to store a rotation, you can use a unit-magnitude complex number z = x + iy, where x = cos θ, y = sin θ, without ever needing to calculate the quantity θ directly. If you need to compress it down to one parameter for whatever reason, use the stereographic projection s = y / (1 + x) = (1 – x) / y. Reverse that by x = (1 – s²) / (1 + s²), y = 2s / (1 + s²). [If starting from angle measure for whatever reason s = tan ½θ, sometimes called the "half-tangent".]

The angle measure is the logarithm of the rotation, θi = log z. In some contexts logarithms can be very convenient, but it’s not the simplest or most fundamental representation.

With units of "radians" angle measure is the logarithm of base exp(i) [related to the natural logarithm], and with units of "turns" it is the logarithm of base 1 (sort of).

If someone is interested in what's being done to improve LLVMs debuginfo, here's a talk by Djordje Todorovic from two years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpMLt1oecOk. It's about tracking dwarf locations for variables by keeping around information from the parent frame. According to that presentation, at least that work has been progressing.
Yeah, I get that. I think just a terminology thing. It seems like you're using "casual" to describe your mindset whereas I'm understanding "casual" to be offhand, or without significant investment. Forgetting about the absolutely massive time investment, spending > 2000$/year on running shoes alone is a distinctly not-casual thing to do.

> it’s not so different from that of all the other casual marathon runners out there

Maybe this is the disconnect? People who have ever run a marathon at all are < 1%, and people who continually run marathons casually are a niche within that niche. If the audience is "people who run more than 50km per week" then I think "casual" probably gets the right idea across, that's just a teeny tiny audience.
Yes, it has been. I've used it in the past (end of 90s) but I don't remember what for. Might've been some abacadabra like dd and fdisk on non-x86 or *BSD? I'm not sure. I actually forgot the name of this application, but now that I see it, I immediately recognized it.

> I'd guess the % of people who need 18 days of battery life is very small.

It's not that you will need 18 days of battery life, it's simply knowing that you have it there. If you're going off for 3-4 days on a hike, there's a possibility your trip is getting extended by bad weather, wild animals, and whatnot. Knowing that's a possibility you always pack extra gear, and the idea of your main map on the trail dying is not an option.

One of the things I like most about Age is that it made the very deliberate choice to __not__ become a general tool like GPG, and focuses only on one thing: secure encryption. You can read some of the reasoning about specifically not supporting signing as well here [0], but TL;DR -- it's a hard problem and age isn't really designed for communication and doesn't want to become a "a worse version of signal".

I did not consider any non-remote jobs during my search this summer.

I don't mind working in an office - it can be nice to have a clear separation between work time and personal time - but I do mind commuting, unless I can walk. (Motorcycling is OK too, but if I have to drive a car or ride in a bus to get to work, I'm not going to be happy about it.)

It would be hard to give up the general life flexibility that has come with remote work. We can live anywhere, so long as there's a reasonable time overlap with the West Coast; my partner's career options do not have to be constrained by mine.
