If you asked me in 2009, a GitHub would be enough for a developer's portfolio in the context of an open-source developer. Given the mainstream status of Twitter in referencing tweets as "evi…

Most of everyone's main reason was that GitLab was "open source" and also supports free software. As much as they claim to do, I'm afraid that by being partially owned by VCs, they…

I agree. For this particular role, there is little to no justification to use whiteboarding or Leetcode that would be relevant to this role. Being self taught + open-source contributions or projects i…

The only websites that I know off the top of my head that still use Flash are Newgrounds and the BBC, for its iPlayer content. It seems that Google is already using WebAssembly in its products, Google…

Several traits or indications I mostly come across with junior engineers is that guidance from seniors or on-boarding might be slightly more involved for them to bring them up to speed. Usually, they …

> It went public in early 2017 at $17 per share, sinking below $5 per share by the end of 2018. Well I guess those who threw their money into "dead stock" at an all time low of $5 at the …

> ‘Inclusivity is one of the Students’ Union’s founding principles.’ Don't make me laugh. To outright ban clapping to avoid triggering a minority is like banning free-speech to favour the offe…

> There were many more concerns than we expected. Telemetry was always going to be a concern with services that promote themselves as "open-source" or "free-software". The subj…
comment
The recent Github repository exodus has now been in vain since GitLab is taking action similar to how MS is famous in developer circles for telemetry and not respecting your privacy. Whenever VCs are …

That is a iPhone X like device, which only has Face ID or a PIN. A PIN is more secure than a fingerprint and Face ID. But at least use a combination of either one with a PIN to make it more secure. Si…

That's true, most broadcasters have to also bid for broadcasting contracts which give them a-lot of revenue too if they win. However, UK audiences tend to question the TV license if the BBC does …

This was bound to happen. The "community" always finishes last if a company is involved with investors on the table and as far as GitLab's is concerned, they must please them with evide…

This can be said for any social network that plays on the FOMO idea. So LinkedIn is just one of many accounts that one needs to closed down or limit to avoid FOMO. Social media is a giant psychologica…

Frankly speaking, I'd prefer to use macOS to do software development generally these days and since I don't really need to do alot of configuring my environment thanks to its consistent user…

> Ride-hailing company forecasts reaching profitability by end of 2021 I think such jokes are meant to be reserved for a late night comedy show, not in a quarterly earnings call. Lyft has been chro…

Strange to see that the authors of the LLVM project, Chris Lattner and Vikram Adve are not present given that LLVM has been used by many large companies (Google, NVIDIA, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, In…

Fuchsia + Zircon kernel is probably the most serious answer to being a mainstream "open-source" non-linux alternative operating system other than GNU/Linux, Windows and macOS.

Clever way of getting free credit from people that signup to DigitalOcean via your referral link. Nice try, but I already have an account. :)

Good riddance to the highest dishonour towards the tech industry.

Well unless you are not working on a kernel / libc / compiler component, I'm sure that the closest thing to encountering 'RSS Memory' (meaning Residential Set Size which is th…
