  1. She's representing privilege. She is definitely the problem. She's misrepresenting an entire group of people by trying to dictate how two different groups should be treated. Buying RGB headphones and wearing a cute outfit to play a game is certainly NOT representative of the majority of men or women that lazily lounge around playing a game on crappy speakers and a crappy table.

  2. This guy is the one that's complaining the most out of everybody we've seen so far. And there's something about him complaining about all of this legal process that adds humor to the whole situation. There definitely is value in not being the guy who is complaining the most, which allows for humor and reflection.

  7. To be fair, what Ludwig argues about saying his transcribed text can't be used by some other independent site is a little silly. It's like saying using an entire book and paraphrasing it is illegal. If it was word-for-word quoting and akin to plagiarism, that's more illegal.

  17.  @eduantech  It's not like Prime's point diverges too heavily away from Uncle Bob's. I would say he only lacks the compatible experience of writing TDD code or test cases in a way that he might find it hard to empathize or imagine certain "feelings" or judging things based on "smell/feel" as Bob describes. But the principles are quite close, especially with the thoughts on Agile. Though Prime has had a viewpoint against TDD and can't empathize with it much, I don't think it weighed down the discussion. Bob was well-spoken even when Prime was confused and did a good job of translating to topics/scenarios Prime could grasp and even agree with. I would argue that both Prime and Bob would arrive at a similar end point (if he isn't convinced already), just as Bob and his peers did in 2001. It is rooted in wisdom more than experience in a corporate/business world. I primarily think the direction that Prime's life has mostly influenced his little exposure and insight into TDD. If you give him years of the same kind of exposure I feel that the world would steer him towards TDD anyway. For the purposes of being a streamer full time I will contrastingly say that TDD is probably the LEAST entertaining topic, except for those who are truly passionate about writing test cases and working in such a way outside of a professional context. It doesn't make money, TDD has never been the thing that makes money on its own.

  18. The graphics are not shitty; they are simplistic (as you go on to state with the third word in your sentence). It is a piece of the game that is well defined. Graphics are meant to form the first impressions while also being technically remarkable. People care if the look of the game is cohesive. People do not care about the resolution of individual textures in a game unless you're a game reviewer that is picky and has a standard for game development, namely TotalBiscuit.

  19.  @laden6675  no, he did a good job. he led bob to build his own arguments even when he disagrees with them. this comes from a person who is highly critical of prime in many instances.

  20. Canary releasing is immediately the first overall strategy that I thought could've heavily mitigated many of the global effects of the outage. I'm speculating entirely from this point on, but I believe it couldn't be rolled back since the interaction between Crowdstrike's software interacts with Windows at a low-level and causes the O.S to be inaccessible once the software deployment went live. I believe they have to delete a file through some relatively straight-forward procedure, but it requires manual intervention to some degree and so it is painstakingly slow to recover everything when the downstream IT organizations don't have great remote controls over each individual instance of Windows. Indeed, it is most curious how and why early detection of such a blatant issue was not present here. Perhaps, some testing was neglected?

  21.  @charliebrewster2809  I agree. I doubt anyone can replace TB.
    6
  22. It should be absolutely emphasized that doing TDD with the AI is not a replacement for any code review. Otherwise, you just get a test case that AI wants to pass, but not necessarily a test that tests the code. You must review the code, and simply use the AI as a pair programming partner that never "drives."

  23. AI is unfortunately just a marketing buzzword for many. It only has a few niche uses, none of them that are reliable enough to put into a business.

  24. The worst part of it is too that not a lot of game developers are competent engineers. Game development is advanced compares to the 90s but it's still way far behind and has a lot of archaic thinking to this day.

  27. I have mixed opinions on your comment, OP. On one hand, it makes me laugh, but on the other hand it reminds me of the typical software engineer ego! And after finishing the video and realizing it's all hypothetical and opinionated, I agree with your sarcastic tone even more.

  33.  @scorcher117  But that's the problem. Partly due to the c*sorship, along with just being a popular platform, Reddit has become a much more limited and less diverse pool of individuals, at least from the perspective of having viewpoints. Many of them lean in a certain direction and share nonsense emotional argument.

  34. I agree. Prime definitely missed something. I would revisit his distinction between the two: CI is about "making sure your code is always working," and CD is about "making sure your code is always releasable." CD includes CI.

  35.  @cdarrigo  the whole point of tdd is to take small steps though... he says this often.

  36. He probably omits PRs because he thinks pair programming is a better way to do code reviews (it might not work with open source), but it doesn't make any difference. If you find PRs prevent you from using this methodology, it probably points to an issue with the code review, not everything else. For your last question, it takes a lot of trust in your team; believe they will code using BDD/TDD and run unit tests before pushing. It is far faster to run something locally than remotely regarding unit tests. If your tests fail at integration (your integration tests), your unit tests are insufficient. Your design needs to be simplified, and you need to break it apart or have better interfaces with well-defined ways to speak to other components. The same needs to be considered for unit tests that run far too long. Suppose your unit testing is too simplistic to detect issues between things you might think are "external components" external to the module you worked on. In that case, your code needs better interfaces between the two systems. As for the rest of your questions, MANY resources cover these topics as the result of decades worth of software development. The XP book is an example of this, written decades ago. I tried to consider your question and any other questions you might have in this explanation. If something needs clarification, I will try to explain it my best. This is my understanding from looking at Dave Farley's videos on CD for the past two years and reading his CD book (although I admit I need to re-read it sometime soon.)

  43. Most of all, he did not create many of these ideas. He just groups them together and re-explains what he learned from others. To talk to one another is to discover how little you know. It's a thoughtful direction for Prime to go into to bring such a guest on and dedicate an entire hour to. I truly think that his separation from the business world, like Netflix, has given him a clearer viewpoint on many matters as of late.

  45. Outside of making novel AI applications/web apps, I think much of A.I. is hinged upon academia. I dont have any experience, but I would start with some of the academic papers which publish findings in machine learning/generative pre-trained text algorithms. It's still highly experimental and not very clear what sort of impact, if any, it will have in the next 10 years.

  46.  user-tx4wj7qk4t  Just found it funny, that's all. I've seen my fair share of corporate software development which looks closer to blue-collar work than actual science. I agree with all the thoughts that an engineer should be well-rounded and know low-level (even occasionally dive into math, or not occasionally if they're working with physics or actual mathematics) and high-level and understand things like IaC. I'd go further to suggest that it's a little bit more basic than just knowing everything/general knowledge. The engineer should have a common approach for any domain, one that focuses on healthy practices and having "mechanical sympathy" and iteratively working upwards to a more complex solution. I've found writing code to be more subjective than I previously thought, getting a positive feeling for how you wrote something is generally a good sign that your design is paying off.

  48. It is harder to manipulate due to its scarcity and non-centralized structure. Just as gold and silver are scarce, that's where we see the value. Crypto is simply more liquid because of its speed. The usefulness isn't much of a concern, the guest speaker on the show demonstrates that with his NGO. The main goal is for more people to adopt it, but this is a significant challenge since some countries (like the U.S.) rely upon its FIAT currency. There is a significant downside to owning something physically tangible that is as heavy as gold and silver. One of those reasons being it is very hard to physically move and is a waste of energy just for the sake of a transaction.

  51. ​ @dylanclarke9497 , discussions like these are great. I think people will learn a lot from asking these kinds of questions. I think the issue here is that agile is intentionally vague. Two weeks is arbitrary, and this sprint length originates from agile's history. It's just a detail in history. The length of a sprint is not essential to succeed with agile. It's just a way for people to imagine how much work they can get done in a reasonable amount of time. If you can't get enough done in two weeks, you won't be able to accomplish agile. You need to have confidence in what you can get done in a specific timeframe. If you can get plenty done in two weeks, where is the importance of following the two-week arbitrary deadline? If you can exceed expectations, why would you limit yourself?

  52. I expect writing a book is similar, based on what I've seen from some authors that livestream their book writing. Now, reading a book is much different. It is an experience, one meant to immerse and obscure the structure in order to make it least predictable. But, to write a book, I feel that some authors wrangle their own complex structure for writing by managing it in these sections/modules.

  53.  @aaronpannell6401  Just wondering, do you still hold the same opinion even though the eyewitnesses have been shown to be coordinating in falsifying their accounts? As well as evidence that NCIS formed a prosecution before an investigation? All the evidence presented against Gallagher has been hearsay. I would be interested to see if you still think the same after all the dust of the case has settled.

  54. Looked pretty real to me. The examples are simple like he explained, it's good design. You seem to gloss over the advice of NOT writing tests across multiple systems. That is bad code and bad test design! That part is tricky on purpose! But there are ways to mitigate those complexities

  55. I totally agree with this. It is VERY easy to debate with him just from viewing this singular video, without any other context on what CI/CD is. It would help a lot of others who are confused to view his other videos, especially where he cites real-life businesses of various sizes with measurable success using CI/CD.

  56. Well, as Dave mentioned, microservice developers might have different standards from team-to-team. If done separately from the data model, logging that data would be most useful if its all connected together in some form or another (correlation IDs so that you could query it) and that could require disciplined teams to do that. I agree it is lazy. In my experience, you'd be able to create a partial picture from the logs and query it using something like ElasticSearch, but it was hardly ever conclusive enough and mostly a scratch on the surface for something that needed to be further reproduced. This is THE problem and solved with a unique navigation of how teams are organized along with smart solutions that provide the necessary and exhaustive set of logs/metrics/traces for any particular event. I'm mostly drawing from my anecdote and working in an ElasticSearch logging system that had logs but still not valuable on its own without even more context and data. I guess one question would be how easy would it be to add testing for the logs associated with the transactional data? Whereas if you do it separately, you might not be able to test for the existence of logs. It might just require discipline. Maybe if your business is to sell data with logs associated with that data to your customers? Otherwise not sure.

  70.  @azena.  Well I appreciate the general observations you've made more than specific scenarios. Certainly a good read, thanks. It makes sense what you have to say about mob programming. I think it makes perfect sense that mob programming would be great for getting some people who struggle with people to add value in a cooperative setting. I haven't yet experienced any mob programming and the amount of pair programming I have has been limited even if it has been my favorite form of collaboration yet. On a side note, I envy you. I would definitely enjoy contracting, but I've yet to break into even the entry level market. Not that inexperience would be a barrier to contracting, but perhaps I just want a bit of reputation before I get into that.

  75. Its not so strange when you look at the consumption of ESSENTIAL goods in the U.S.. For example, a car and gas. These things have little to do with your health but also have everything to do with you eating healthy. Cheap prices and long-term storage have to be prioritized to justify the costs of extra "essential" things that may as well be utilities. Just breakdown the expenses of an average American, and you might see why additives exist and why the food industry has such low regulations.

  76. I disagree; poor product naming. I wholly believe this is a luxury product for the rich. I like the idea of having a gpt accessible offline, but even open-source models require a beefy setup and don't have great text generation. How is this going to compete with something like Meta's llama or Mistral? How will it run any better in such a small form factor? How will this be accessible to poor people in 3rd world countries? Especially when a cloud subscription might be required for these services? I expect all it will do is allow offline restoration/tracking of your previous workspace/history, but not generation of content, locally. Not very innovative.

  77. Armored but not bulletproof.
    2
  78. Anecdotal, but I agree. I've worked in a system where observability of things like resources and infrastructure health were there, but we wouldn't necessarily have anything like a "trace" to debug issues or "metrics" to track customer usage. For such a complex system where we needed to make new features quickly, it was odd to see such a lack in business intelligence. Most certainly the observability/monitoring was added AFTER an outage, I became familiar with the tools that observed the production system.
    2
  79.  @TheEvertw  Also I would further agree that designing observability is a bit more involved than simply adding it to production. The same benefits were often sorely needed into testing/staging environments where devs had no clue what was broken and why. Adding monitors retrospectively is great and all for keeping customers from getting angry at your own issues, but it misses the point of adding monitors and thinking about how the overall system might function and what one might expect from it.

Over the course of time, there should be an improvement. I would recommend thinking about what other parts in life you can't/don't cooperate with well when it comes to working with others.
    2
  83. I know this video seems to discuss intermittently failing tests (perhaps due to some asynchronous work) without changing the code, but I also think of flaky tests as tests that fail whenever you make any code change, too. The follow-up questions in fixing tests that fail unpredictably might be along the lines of "are we testing correctly," or "is our code poorly designed," or "is the test poorly designed?" I'd really like a book that really goes over these kinds of intuitions in a more dedicated manner. Perhaps like a testing anti-patterns book.

  99. @pnk4996 I'm confused on how you're disagreeing with OP. The LLM might have a different response based on the most common test case for your scenario, especially when the context of your prompt is niche and not in its training data. Test cases aren't for mimicking other people's tests. They're for writing design that you would use as if you were the end user, with an added side effect of having a way to track progress. It's text generation that's translated from a plain text prompt.

Rich and educated does not mean you're also not barbaric. Kindness isn't always a value to be educated to or purchased for others. Kindness is also formed around society. Political instability and things of unstable nature in general are all reasons why there aren't large scientific institutions in that part of the world and a general sentiment of the middle east being a region of barbarism. One can easily look at the geographic resources of some of these countries and easily figure out why wealth is more abundant in one place versus a sparsely populated winter wasteland... These people aren't damned, but it's willfully ignorant to forget about how frequently violence spreads in such a part of the world.

  113. I understand why Nexus mods exists still.. but their website is atrocious for modding. The searchability, the way their comment section is structured, the amount of junk mods, 16 character password minimum requirement, the limited set of tags/categorizing of mods, download speed limits, and worst of all the lack of structure when modding games out. (You simply dont know what mods are going to break your game, even the ones in collections.) ... The only thing I think Nexus mods does better is the NSFW content purely because L*versLabs looks like a virus website, but even that has issues with censorship. A competitor to them would be a breath of fresh air for the modding community.

Rumble is after all publicly traded, there is money to be had in such a thing, especially when your biggest competitor hurts its own consumer base. I don't see it growing with only one relatively smaller community being ousted, it would need to be at least a few more significant groups.

An official statement from Discord, who provides the servers, in cooperation with law enforcement would have been a best-case scenario. Likewise, innocent until proven otherwise is most important here. It's not respectable on either side to promote negativity.

I suppose one might overlook this contradiction if you only take his videos with a grain of salt and a pound of entertainment.

  137.  @kayakMike1000  I guess that's one point of view, but my understanding has always been that DevOps means that developers participate and automate the operations side of things along with coding the solution. Your point of view sounds like the common misunderstanding Dave Farley touches upon 7:32 where dev and ops are seen as separate, instead of together. The problem with siloed ops teams is that they simply do not know how and why the system works. They can only guess as to what the engineer was thinking and only after the fact, rather than being involved with development and also engineering a better solution in parallel. So it's a bit more than just developers don't understand how the software operates, it's simply that they don't participate.

  140.  @awmy3109  So how would people start a new project while pair programming then? You don't have to program 100% of the time when you are "pair programming," there's a lot of conversation and discussion involved, too.
    1
  141.  @awmy3109  Well pair programming isn't just about programming, so yes, it is about discussion. You're discussing with the one other person who probably is the best match for the project. So, you would be seeking a second opinion more than blind confidence in their guidance. Pair programming is more of a tool to help alleviate burnout after typing a significant chunk of code (this is why people take pomodoro breaks). When you get mentally exhausted by physically typing on the keyboard and following syntax, it can affect your design choices (I wonder if there is a conclusive study on this, it would be interesting.) and having a second person to take over while you recuperate is great! There are common misconceptions of what pair programming means, for example you can pair program remotely, it doesn't have to be in-person.

  142.  @awmy3109  Well-- you could make the convincing argument that pair programming is just a real-time PR without any delays. Its analogous to trunk based development.

  144.  @Immudzen  Mob programming should be done sparingly only because it is expensive, it's a good way to "see what sticks" as somebody put it. I think pair programming is far less expensive but just as viable as mob programming. The times that people program alone, it's just using it as a form of debt for delaying code review to a later date due to people being far too split apart in responsibilities. Alternatively, it could also mean that the company is hiring employees that don't actually match well personality-wise (and are somewhat antisocial or dont work together naturally) or they don't know how to interview people. Rhetorically, how many times a day do you speak to somebody that's not directly involved in your code? Whether you are gathering requirements, getting clarification, or pushing back on a feature you're going to be talking to somebody. Nobody can be completely insulated from the real word, that requires communication skills.

  145.  @errrzarrr  Continuous Delivery and Continuous Integration is a healthy practice, his statement on DORA follows. Of course, it all depends on whether its actually 2x, but it certainly is more valuable being that iterative by "having the ability to deliver daily" rather than being stuck in a monthly waterfall process. As a disclaimer, DORA is just a DevOps metric and should only be taken as such, not as a fact. Metrics show a very limited scope of the story and often require much more context to judge whether or not it is meaningful.

  152. ​ @ironboundfate  I somewhat agree with this take but I only think these live-service games have been well taken care of because they're so constrained and uncreative. I think a lot of games are not really games anymore. For the sake of having an idiomatic expression, they're games for casuals. Although I like to say they're mental exercise at best, especially for people with attention deficits. I mean it's not so long ago this channel had a video on a study showing findings that most gamers don't play strategy games anymore. I mean battle royale is just a mod of a military sim game, it's meant to be a dumbed down version of a more in-depth game. Fortnite was always dumbed down, it started off as a super basic tower defense, remember Save the World? They just chase trends and marketing. Modern video games are just walking marketing ads.

I would say it's more ignorance on people that spout this sort of generalized nonsense; In reality, the U.S. happens to care a fair deal about China. Is it pro*aganda to say that that country produces the most goods also produced the most amount of pollutants? I think it's obvious why they produce them, even your description supports the idea... It's obvious how China makes so many cheap goods. All one has to do is look on the bottom of their plastic good that reads 'made in China' after realizing why it broke after a few days.

  163. Do you consult for groups of developers? Wondering if there are any good studies on applying correct agile models to groups. I was reading a single study on the effect of pair programming for short amounts of time where in pairs that were either made up of heterogenous or homogenous (things like personalities matched, previous existing knowledge) people. There is no silver bullet to getting people to work well together, but perhaps there is a common pattern for finding groups that mesh well together. Do you have any anecdotes that suggest something like that? I feel like personality matches and social skills are overlooked. I personally thought (in University) that it would be odd to be co-workers with some of my peers because of a general lack of social skills. I admit that it was immature of me at the time to think this way though.

  178.  @Orneyrocks1609  You seem to forget that marines do not have the disadvantage of being stuck in history and without written accounts of common Roman tactics.
    1
  179.  @Orneyrocks1609  I mean if they are somehow stuck on a mountain that they couldn't really reach without helicopter support, you may as well consider giving them helicopter support to reposition or resupply. As for your comment about marines only being successful because of their technology, sure it can be a big factor that one SAW gunner can carry around ~1000 rounds of 5.56, but it could realistically take only a couple of bullets to kill one leader as well; killing the leadership can be the quickest way to end the battle.
    1
  180.  @Orneyrocks1609  Yes exactly, killing leaders will not only severely affect morale, letting troops question whether to continue their orders due to a lack of punishment for deserting, but the movements will become chaotic at best. The leaders need to be closer to relay orders since they do it by speaking to each other and not radio. As you described it, the legates will not be describing orders directly unless they're otherwise on the battlefield. Further, if the leadership is unable to quickly relay orders, any changes to the plan will surely be slow, allowing the platoon to outmaneuver the enemy easily. Hypothetically let us say that the legates never choose to come to the frontlines to relay orders and analyze the field. If this is done, the understanding of the current situation is limited to their ability to understand the messengers between subordinates which can affect planning. Additionally, you leave an extra vulnerability of how do you successfully send and receive messages without simply having them get picked off by marksmen?
    1
  181.  @Orneyrocks1609  Any marine can be a marksman, they are capable of reaching out to long ranges. Even if there are multiple positions of leadership you fail to acknowledge that loss of any of these will lead to disarray and lack of communication. As an example, since you lack the foresight to come up with simple and possible outcomes, if one of the upper figures of leadership is killed (no matter if he is the highest or not, but any of the high ones), who holds the men accountable, who is to say that men won't start deserting when their numbers begin to drop by the hundreds? This kind of psychological warfare can easily multiply as more and more men die and more and more men desert or retreat. They do not even have to be intentionally targeting leadership, it can just happen. Don't forget, not all men will be outright killed, many will be wounded by the 5.56, men will have to tend to their wounded, causing a severe shortage in manpower and supplies.
    1
  182.  @Orneyrocks1609  Well just give the Romans guns and there's no technological edge. What's the point? You're changing the whole point of everything by saying that. Romans had tactics and strategies based on their current technology, not just because; the same applies to the platoon. Steel shields, sure it can work but it will be heavy and does not guarantee protection to vital locations, the platoon can retreat since they will have a much lighter load; this problem expands when considering steel armor. Hypothetically speaking, as you mentioned with javelin volleys, if you have thousands of troops 20 meters away from a platoon of anything, of course, the thousands of troops win. Without any more hypotheticals, how do you get those troops to advance towards the platoon, hundreds if not thousands of yards away without suffering any of the morale or mobility issues that I mentioned (Not even accounting for the hypothetical idea of steel armored Romans which surely adds a significant amount of weight)? You continue to not acknowledge that the loss of a leader leads to disarray. Having a system of leadership does not guarantee that all the leaders think in a hivemind. Different leaders have different approaches, tactics, ways of problem-solving, leading to chaos or disorder since you cannot really predict which leader will fall. The purpose of a leader is to coordinate movements and to relay information, not to just simply exist and pep talk everybody. How can you achieve this when the leader is dying at an unusually fast rate? How can you rely on the soldier to follow when he sees the foundation of his military strength crumble around him? And this all occurs before the Romans can even have the possibility of reaching the platoon in time. How can you rely on the next leader in line to continue the order to charge with the imminent risk of quick and sure death? They are the new leader after all, RETREAT AND LIVE TO NOT FIGHT ANOTHER DAY!
    1
  183.  @Orneyrocks1609  Ancient Rome is history, leave it at that. You don't have to kill all the leaders to affect morale only a few which is likely in any normal situation. Anything with 2000 years would perform better. I'm not introducing 'too many things' such as "Orneyrocks 1 day ago @Johnathan Busse I know, but for example, they are both stuck in a mountain... " USMC platoon also has utility, they build outposts, foxholes, fortifications, etc, if they need to. Alright forget about leaders, the platoon can set up a formation that is effective and will just mow down enemy troops so badly from long range so that they just call a retreat since they think the platoon will kill them all. Simple as that can't go wrong with it.

It certainly contributes to health issues that things have additives, but the real question is "why have we come to this point?" What I brought up, it was referring to the fact that you have to drive everywhere just to accomplish the simple task of buying and then eating food from your grocery store let alone your local farm... A larger issue is that we've purposefully made population density low and zoned so poorly, even in urban areas. It has caused so many ripple effects that far exceed the scope and impact of being concerned about local farmers vs. food imports. Not sure how we fix this kind of issue, one that plagues an entire country, but it probably should be the focus over the course of a century.

  195. my professor taught us a neat shortcut for dets for 3x3 matrix( and i guess any other square matrix), you take the first two columns and make a copy of the matrix with those same two columns added to the end of your new matrix, let me try to illustrate this in this comment 1 4 7 1 4 7 1 4 2 5 8 --> 2 5 8 2 5 3 6 9 3 6 9 3 6 so as i described earlier, you take the 3x3 matrix, and basically make it into a 3x5 matrix, this is just to compute the determinant and doesn't have any other purpose other than that as far as i see. so to compute the determinant using this new matrix you multiply all the diagonals going from top left to bottom right so starting from the left most one, ( 1*5*9 + 4*8*3 + 7*2*6 ) this is half of the determinant now we need to do it going backwards, from top right to bottom left, ( 4*2*9 + 1*8*6 + 7*5*3 ), this is the second half of computing the determinant now we combine both of these sums, but the second half subtracts from the first half so: ( 1*5*9 + 4*8*3 + 7*2*6 ) - ( 4*2*9 + 1*8*6 + 7*5*3 ) = det of the matrix, hope I remembered this correctly!

  197. But the planning upfront thing he describes is more of a learning experience than generating an entire diagram describing a solution. Maybe it's an artifact from the UML days, but I think it's a bit heavy handed to call it "planning upfront" when it's more like describing a napkin sketch on a post-it note or a temporary drawing on a whiteboard. This is done less frequently and still consumes a very small amount of time compared to the actual time spent writing the code. I would say his explanation of it is a much more lightweight interpretation of planning, not meant to bog down the coder. The entire waterfall approach is in reality more reminiscent of heavy upfront planning because of having less access to frequent deployments.

You write a function which expected certain functions from an object, the type hinting gives you a hint that the duck typing will work (or not if you violate it) as intended.

  204.  @TheEvertw  In my experience, the monitoring system was heavily under engineered. There isn't any need for deep insight, but it should be able to state its dependencies and anytime it interacts with them and the chain of errors that occur downstream in other services. I think most of the time that sort of in-depth insight is most visible in the current test suite rather than observability tools. The tools don't need to dive too deep other than to keep track of performance, stability, or user interaction. Rarely did I ever need to tie the specific log to a line of code. The real issue was just tracking down the origin of the error, which service was producing it and the circumstances to reproduce it. I agree that observability should be designed and engineered into microservices. But, first and foremost make sure your microservices are as close as possible to be a "micro" service. After all, observing is the way to attribute your work and how its has reaped benefits from and for your customer.

  212.  @prosilentgamerxrap5615  It's also terrible because the attention span of people on there is terrible... even though it's an app devoted to reading. And reading comprehension is quite low when it usually amounts to people typically only reading the highest voted comments/posts and then moving on. It's an ecosystem of clicks for sure. People just click on the most attention grabbing thing and then move on. No research, no backing up wild claims, just arguing with nonsense emotional-driven arguments. I can only bear to read subreddits which primarily focus on reading in the first place, and even still the c*sorship and political biases on such a platform outweigh any skill in reading comprehension even in niche communities.

  217.  @babgab  Also, your issue has little to do with pairing and more with poor team organization. The team structure isn't good enough to support pairing, you might need intermediate members who can bridge the gap between a web programmer and a graphics dev (assuming there's something worth developing features which requires these two very different kinds of tech stacks).

You might not have the budget to bridge the gap between two very different tech stacks either because the opportunity isn't profitable enough or the money wasn't used in a constrained enough manner.

  221. I'm not prepared to debate this, mostly since I don't know enough. An article from SeekingAlpha shows why the physical aspect of precious metals is a downside; from the perspective that gold is a currency. Can widespread adoption of BTC be done without causing negative side effects? Or at least mitigate most of the negative side effects? I think these are the most important questions for BTC rather than questioning the practicality of an electronic system (something that the U.S. primarily uses). Gold is a commodity, not a currency. The comparisons should be different. Not to mention the counterfeit issues that come with gold and the historical lessons we've been taught with metal currencies being phased out and replaced by FIAT currencies time and time again.

  222.  @inhocsignovinces1419  Fair point. I'm not sure if crypto is ready to be a nation's currency. Maybe it can, but there are probably many issues that we would see if that happened all of a sudden. It would have to slowly be phased in more likely.

  223. This is what I've been referring when discussing that Linux's release process does not necessarily decrease the impact of bugs. Arguably, it exacerbates it. It's that the overall development process that is flawed; the deployment and review process also somewhat flawed again. It allowed this bug through. I would've loved to see a review of the breaking code changes themselves, not just the patch to fix it. Chalking it up to "things just break" is not even an archaic philosophy, it's just reckless.

Whether there was enough difference between now and then so that it would affect the cutting of kevlar enough, I'm not sure, not a bow/arrow and kevlar expert. Anyway, this is a silly assumption by the original poster since it doesn't consider how the longbows would reach 200 yards, and that they just magically appear there and the platoon was stationary.

  231. Pretty sure cache servers are in neighboring countries/regions, they're not geographically near to Russians anymore. Its probably not more expensive, like you suggest, there's simply a prioritization of geographically close customers. Ukrain was also a source of ad revenue, I doubt the invasion helps to produce more revenue now. If anything, taking Russians from their homes and pushing them into an invasion force probably drives less traffic toward YouTube. It's clear why there is less incentive to have business in such a region.

  238. I think creative writers are getting the largest bang for their buck with all this LLM business. If you write code as if you were a writer it could really create some creative ideas (even if they're completely wrong in the context of your codebase) and help you brainstorm as a result. It's a lot harder to mess up creative writing than code since it can be more subjective. That's not to say that LLMs don't regularly mess up writing stories by overusing cliches, having wonky plots, or nonsense/lifeless characters.

  239.  @AlexGnok  CI (and CD by extension) is going to be hard for your company if its difficult for a lot of your developers to work together in a single branch AND implement automated "QA" into more facets of the software development. Trust is a big factor. Trust in that the tests are correct, that whoever wrote them wrote a useful test. Trusting your "neighbors" is also important, such that they don't break your code when they add a commit. Some of your testing may be manual, but the point is to reduce how much of it is manual. Testing accessibility can be hard when there aren't any tools, you might probably have to write your own tooling to assess the level of accessibility of your app, and it can be useful to do that on some low-hanging fruit to get a small sneak-peek into how a more dedicated solution would help. I am sure there are objective ways to measure how accessible something is. For browsers at least, there is a plethora of automated tools. There's a whole idea of "Web Content Accessibility Guidelines" and automated tools that flag errors on those guidelines. Now, I will risk some controversy here by saying maybe the problem is not that many people are junior level, but rather something much simpler but viewed at a layer higher than simply evaluating individual developers. Maybe that company isn't a shining example on how to write software. Or maybe accessibility isn't very important yet. Up to you if think its worth it. Somehow, somebody thinks it's all worth some $ amount.

  253. Yes, I commonly hear the mis-categorization of agile to be a "noun," a thing to sell to project managers, rather than simply to be "clean" or "agile." It depends on how people interpret and sell it. Look at writing of the original authors and you will see it has soft points, few or no hard limits. It is meant to be vague. You could say it all equates to having "good manners", but that's not as catchy and sounds more parental. "Professional" sounds too corporate. It's hard to express things in English in a singular way to everybody.

I doubt you want to hear it from anybody about how it can be really tough but it's definitely a big part of it. The only reason I commented is just to show that, from one person to another, there are many paths to success.

This is my belief as part of my anecdote from working a period of time in which my employer offered to double my pay. I hope that the only thing stopping you from leaving is preservation of your professional reputation with the company, and even that is expendable if you believe you can help others in a better environment. Once the company can, they will treat you as expendable. Current job market is not very good if you are lacking YOE so most people recommend to not abandon your current job until it improves.

  275.  @g4rrett73  I too have visited Japan within the last year and I agree. I enjoyed the train systems there. I think intercity railways in the U.S. would only be feasible in a select few areas until there is some growth in passenger railways in areas with good zoning/infrastructure for walkability. Before trains there probably should be other forms of transport. Perhaps better biking infrastructure is the least cost prohibitive. So I agree that generally many cities are not equipped for passenger railways, its not profitable for private companies. Fix the zoning in cities and make it more walkable and then railways might be profitable. One such example of a small, incremental change might be Arlington Virginia. They've got intercity trains, no?

Either way it doesn't excuse any amount of removing one's rights. Let alone for countries that are at peace. War is another way of saying politics (and by extension its politicians) have failed. Failure in human rights is another way of saying politicians hiding their failures. Let's be real, historically so many places have had war. But more recently, the information age has given a huge reason as to why this is no longer excusable for any nation to have any sort of conflict. Everyone now knows what you do and it will be recorded digitally forever after. How can that not be the greatest cost on any nation?

  284. By the way, while thats a high systolic BP, I read online you shouldn't rely on a single reading. It's inaccurate, you should take multiple over a longer period (not multiple times within a few minutes, which can make you more stressed out if you think about it too much). Things like your comfort sitting down and keeping your arm with your heart level are important when measuring. Your BP does change through the day with levels of activity, but its important if you're comfortable and sitting down normally it shouldn't be high, generally. My BP was high from just stress with interviews. Take a load off and do things to fight against stress like challenging your body physically but safely. Cheers. Good luck and speak to your doctor if you're ever doubtful.

  289. Good point. It can be so easy to jump to the conclusion that forms from the repetitious stereotype of a wealthy actor. The trial has revealed subtle, hidden hints of an introverted lifestyle. Johnny doesn't expose his inner life circle to others; this premature idea of him being an abuser went unchallenged for years. After hearing the initial drama from the couple, I created a conclusion in my mind for the two; nothing more than another crazy life of a Hollywood star. Some of that is undoubtedly true, but I think it requires a particular sort of reservedness and an open mind to not hastily judge others. The overarching historical theme is how quick people's impressions can be manipulated. Otherwise, this can easily repeat with another unfortunate prey.

  292. 12:29 Regarding the interview techniques that are best for any given developer, I would argue there is no best technique. I've never owned a business so it might mean little, but I think it makes most sense to put your money where your mouth is. If you can afford to hire developers, you can take the risk of losing that money. And who's to say that once you hire somebody you can't fire them if they're not performing. It is always a risk to hire new developers because it can be so subjective and discriminatory in so many ways. Soft skills are probably the easiest to identify and are important. Save money by avoiding all these 'hoops' to jump through with arbitrary goals. Speed up the hiring process and speed up the delivery of the end product by hiring faster. That said, I think the bare minimum a hiring team should do is have budget for as many people they can hire for a single position, hire those people, and fire anyone that lied on their Resume AND can't deliver. Companies should stop hiring if they can't afford it, I don't think many companies can afford it in Q1/Q2 2024. A business trying to hedge their bets on the "one perfect guy" based on a crazy assorted system of screenings is rolling the dice. I'm not going to look favorably upon a team or company that encourages people to take needless risks. It's no different from a guy YOLOing his savings on a meme stock.

You should be apprehensive about the future of these mailing lists and super complex code. It's not going to disappear on its own. Nonetheless, it will be forced to change, and will probably continue to exist and grow (or something else will in place of Linux).

Regulation might not be relevant here as the weapon could've been stolen or borrowed.

  303.  @KillerOfTheShadow  ​Well, it actually changed significantly for a lot of America. Rather than being portrayed as the soldier who killed a father on father's day and a child, it explained he was being prosecuted extremely for such a minor charge. The jury found him innocent 6 to 1 on all but the one charge, which he did not deny, the photograph. All other charges were dropped due to a lot of questionable evidence and hearsay. It exposed a huge lack of transparency, how the military can violate the most basic of civil rights, even for service members, and lastly the dangerous ego and political backstabbery within the Navy. Simply said, there was no due process. His wife managed to convince the former president to step in, which caused the case to turn out the way it had, and allowed him to coordinate with lawyers more effectively rather than being placed in solitary confinement for his whole trial and imprisoned for life. This was a pretty big case for something so seldomly discussed and poorly understood past the initial reporting provided by the large news outlets. If you're willing to look into this some more sources, navytimes had a great article where the journalist discusses how NCIS got rid of some of their people afterward due to the way the case turned out. The NCIS and Navy sure went to some extreme lengths to protect their image. It just goes to show how underappreciated and how little you have in terms of independence and rights when you join the military. The reporting from AP, NYTimes, and most of the other news outlets was done extremely poorly. They unknowingly relied on intentional "leaks" from the gov't and focused primarily on the NCIS's cherry-picking of evidence rather than aggregating all the evidence to see whether the case was sound in court, which if they did, it would have shown that the prosecution had unreliable evidence and poor intent. The big news outlets had little to no investigative journalism and it is quite scary if you look at it like that.

  304.  @taliosnz  You still don't need a PR to help define a better contract that integrates with the code from another team. This can be done with pair programming still. If you work with the other team a lot, you may need to integrate more members between the two groups to get a wider breadth of knowledge. I'm not sure of my last statement, but I think it's more of an issue with team structure rather than code review structure.

  305. Continuous values is a unique test case I haven't really seen it around much. You could do it up to a certain precision I guess, but if losing some of the precision is inexcusable, you definitely are going to have to write a more thoughtful test. Although, if you are comparing data in a graphical way aren't you tolerating some loss in precision one way or another? How precise are we talking when it comes to people analyzing data?

  307.  @SirBenJamin_  If you're having to pass in parameters for testing so early in development, whos to say you wont need to do it for a production use case? If it already "broke" once as soon as you changed something as part of your development, it surely suggests and could correlate to an error of that same kind occurring in production in the near future. An added point to adding in a test double or mock thru DI is to avoid all the overhead of bringing in a real engine.

  312. Depends on the physics videos. If it's casual and in layman's terms, probably. But if you're watching lectures and exercising your mind along with the lectures that's irreplaceable and isn't easily done by LLMs. I'd argue doing fervent research is a lot different from fervently prompting an LLM for information/code which may or may not be hallucinated. I'd also argue researching with physics videos would supplement your ability to prompt AIs about physics questions in a way that's easily translatable to other physicists. Many things in moderation perhaps.

  313. Google doesnt need to do 15-20 interviews to find the best applicant. I think this is a fallacy correlating interview round count to applicant quality. They do it because its a war of attrition to un-invested candidates, and even further to against not-desperate-enough candidates. They also do it because of the status/fame you get of being at Google and they don't want impostors. It's a waste of money.

  316. So this explains you don't necessarily need a mock object (or to an even larger extent, a mock library) to achieve testing. You can stub, fake, spy. Mock objects are usually much more involved (and nowadays generated by libraries using reflection). Again, mock objects are more involved because they're mimicking behavior of an actual API. They're really not necessary, that should just be an integration test. Just create a better design by abstracting away your external APIs and substitute them with smaller test doubles for unit testing. Unfortunately, as other comments mention, this makes a poor design where your test is tightly coupled to something still. So, if you're highly dependent on a certain protocol's response that overall indicates poor design and is an important portion of the code to minimize that impact.

  319. 46:42 Locality of Behavior sounds like it is pretty different from separation of concerns, but I do not think they're totally exclusive. They're overlapping slightly in that both of these acronyms are ideas about organizing code. For example, you could group the markup, the scripting, and the styling for a button into one file (demonstrating a locality of behavior), this composes all the code involved in a single button while still providing a separation of concerns by keeping the different syntaxes together but separate from the code/style/markup of other elements in a different file. The developer may pick and choose over the other based on how they've grouped other portions of the code as well, but a consistency in choosing one over the other, or both together is important.

  321. ​ @ibolcina  If you regularly talk to customer, you don't have to throw everything away. You do a small amount of work, check with them, and then in a roman gladiator style they give you a "thumbs up" or a "closed fist". If they don't like it, then figure out why how to talk to them better, that's it. Worst case scenario is you throw out a week or two of work. The more you work with them, the more you'll understand ALL requirements and that is what decreases the problems you encounter. There's no reason for these cop out explanations like "humans are unreliable and give me a poorly written contract"

Could be a startup idea, a competitor to traditional language apps. Not sure HOW you would do it, but I'm sure AI could at least help with text generation in this area.

  331. The examples in this video were absurd and inaccessible. You wouldn't use ChatGPT for domain-specific knowledge, it pushes for a more generalized answer with builder patterns. Though what it does indicate is your code doesn't follow any well-established patterns, which I would say is not a typical case for most people's code, especially in a language which relies heavily on typing. A lot of code patterns re-occur regularly. This is why I canceled my subscription from GPT 4 to GPT3. GPT 3 still has plenty of capability in detecting patterns, summarizing, but still has the same downsides of lacking specific knowledge, which is fine for $20 less.

  346. The risks of code churn addressed in the video aside, there's also just the general issue of how AI tools are just boilerplate generators. They take your English-like text and generate the boilerplate (whether what they generate is code or more documentation is irrelevant), that's it. If you know how to do something but don't necessarily understand syntax or semantics of a library as a single layer of abstraction, LLMs are great. But as far as using LLMs for code design, or for creating layers of abstraction, this kind of stuff is simply way above the scope of what LLMs are currently doing.
    1
  347. Some companies are using training LLMs to act as RAG(s) to have a intelligent code lookup on their codebase using large language models. But it doesn't necessarily provide any intelligence like I mentioned. It's just now generating boilerplate relevant to your existing codebase. So, in a world where you have to discover what you know (or don't know), LLMs don't provide much in the way of help for the world of software world quite yet. At least not from a general perspective.

  354. Cryptocurrency is great and all but there's not really a way to bargain with it unless the other guy has a crypto wallet you can send to. Again, whoever you're bargaining with has to have the knowledge of how it all works. Unless of course, you have one of those RFIDs that can be easily accessed by smartphone. At that point, you do have an easy to exchange asset, given that the person bargaining with you understands how to use all of this. Maybe you can give your phone away which has access to your crypto wallet but you're bargaining a lot more than just your crypto at that point. With all that in mind, I agree with your choice(s), I would carry gold or a Rolex. Moral of the story: Such a small thing can have a lot of thought behind it.

  356. So HTMX simply extends the abstraction of what an anchor, a button and a form can do and generalizing it to other elements through HTMX attributes? It seems like a unique way to extend the declarative nature of HTML and really supports the original idea of HTML.

  359.  @Muskar2  It's probably more dangerous for the reasoning that browsers are tightly coupled to JavaScript and vice versa. So much so, coupled to browsers where the GUI is untestable and not standardized. If anything, JavaScript has valuable lessons in navigating/avoiding this tight coupling with the complex configuration system it has via various json configuration files. From a perspective of creating patterns of programs, I would say it's all mostly still there but maybe only less accessible due to all previously mentioned overhead.

  363. Much of this advise follows for businesses with large and intentional corporate structures for development but I fail to see how this advice is useful for anyone but the people who are already in big tech. I guess my main gripe is that there isn't much solid advice outside of "get experience in a siloed corporate environment" which doesn't really come off as advice anymore. Not very representative of the actual value a developer is supposed to bring to a business and other teams. I'll agree on learning a new language or just reading a book that changes your way of thinking. But if we take this idea of learning outside this context, you could do that without focusing solely on a programming language.

  366. Without us knowing more about the Secret Service's advance team and planning for the security of this event, it might seem like a speculative remark about how political this agency is with its inclusivity... which is somewhat contradictory for an organization that has to differentiate its applicants in order to pick the best candidate for the job. The existing argument is that the current leadership in this agent is perhaps overly political rather than focusing on the mission. The agency is also well-funded with a sizeable budget. The Secret Service is also considered to be more rigorous in training and selection. It seems somewhat beneath a more elite organization to inadequately provide protection to important political candidates necessary for the safety and honest political process of this nation.

  373.  @igboman2860  I don't think people get upset with diversity. I think people get upset with the conclusions about it. Can we be sure your name change helped you on your resumes? You should research the company you apply to and see if their vision lines up with yours. Even after researching, you really only get a glimpse of the actual company through interviews. Sending a resume isn't exactly a way to express your own "diversity." It's still anonymous from the manager's point of view!

  375. ​ @igboman2860  I may be skipping over your conclusions since you may not be getting interviews for various reasons. In a world where anonymously sending your resume is now the widespread trend to apply for a position, no wonder why it's troublesome to find an interview. People may falsely believe that carefully crafted wording will make the difference. A busy manager only has time to skim the resume. It changes once you can put a face to the name. I am not discrediting your judgments of people being picky. The interview process isn't transparent enough for us to arrive at these conclusions. Sometimes non-qualified people try to sift through technical resumes. It could filter people out of positions for superficial reasons. The structure of how some companies hire is in an "ass-backward" manner.

  377.  @krYrrr  I wonder the same thing, depends on perspective. If she has savings, it's probably not that big of a deal. For HR people, I already feel the stress of just dealing with HR people from an interview perspective, I can't imagine what it must feel like from a firing perspective from their end. I suppose some people can thrive in a small world, but I find it hard to see that HR people don't feel conflicted that their imprint on the world regularly involves the suffering of other people for the sake of appeasing some faceless corporate entity that doesn't care for any single person. The company has a red flag of wasting of finances on these absurd processes. The tech isn't exactly bleeding edge, there are competitors, and so it's nothing to sacrifice your own personal life to. The corporate leaders that initiated this entire controversy are still in place. I'm speaking from my anecdote of being a late joiner to a public company that finally met an "end of the line" from a long history of mass firings (restructurings), only keeping the top 1% who were "long tenure" employees that were members of the original (overly large behemoth company) that went through repetitions in history experiencing companies hirings/mergers/firings. One particular event involving significant financial/tax fraud, and a final nail in the coffin due to bankruptcy. Anyway, my anecdote goes to show corporate KPIs/metrics really mean nothing, except for their finances perhaps. The common tie-in between these companies that constantly restructured was the finances. Hiring software guys is expensive, keeping your software running is expensive, some software is just not worth it.

I loved how we went over assertions, unit testing, and we even went over agile manifesto & design patterns from a high-level all in one class. That was the most value I've ever gotten out of a CS course, perhaps because I'm more interested in developing applications compared to traditional Computer Science.
