In software engineering you can easily take the wrong turn and work on the wrong thing or for the company for 3-4 years and it can reduce your hire-ability significantly
You’ve decided to take 1-2 year break and do something else in your life? Good luck finding a job after.

I completely agree. Google search is borderline unusable. I defer most of my searches to LLMs.
Google maps and gmail are still going strong. The day that those products will be replaced by something better is also getting near.

Stop the language wars! Every language has its own place and use:
Go - quickly write memory safe backend services
PHP - great all-in-one solution for hacky web developers
Python - data science
JS - creating user interfaces
Rust - bragging about how smart you are on Twitter

There are 5 concepts to understand
1. imports/packages
2. structrs/methods
3. error handling
4. go routines
5. channels
After that you've pretty much mastered the basics of the language
There is a bit of struggle around subjects like:
1. interfaces
2. map syntax
3. pointer syntax
But they are the same in other languages, so coming from languages with those features, you don't need to learn it.
You can go wild and also learn
1. cgo
2. generics
3. the weird iterator thingy that was recently introduced

imagine being a carpenter and being asked to build a chair, but instead of building that chair you make an entire framework that will make it easy to build that chair, then you use that framework to build just one chair and never use it again.
This is what over-engineering means

I don’t like talking about these subjects, but I’ll step out of my comfort zone. According to the story, the mother got a phone call from someone in Gaza claiming she is alive and resides in a hospital in the north-east edge of Gaza.
In reality, some of these people like to rub salt in peoples wound. It’s not enough that your child was murdered and their corpse paraded on the street. But they also need to torture you psychologically.
On top of that, they expect the mother to put pressure on the Israeli army to stop their military operation, even if temporarily, to give Hamas time to organize and regroup.

Sergio, your post is reflecting some of my recent thoughts. I think a lot of people seek a professional work setting where they can just do their job and go back to their real family.
I think company events & happy hours distract employees from their purpose and goals.
As an employee you should treat your work time as sacred to achieve your work goals. People are often promoted and appreciated according to how useful they are to the company and to their peers at work, not according to how cool and friendly they were in the latest company event.

Not really. You are getting the same information in an HTML format or JSON format. Doesn't effect data leak vulnerabilities.
Both approaches and miles better than anything GraphQL or anything firebase has to offer.

I was making 50k for my first real programming gig, 2nd year it was already 80k, 3rd year around 110k, 5th year it was 130k, 6th year it was 250k, 7th year it was around 600k and today I can't disclose 🤐

At the end of the day, 90% of Python is used as a a wrapper language for C.
Another 9% for simple scripts
And about 1% for serious projects that caught on and now they are forced to use Python because it’s too costly to change a language.

About 8 years back I needed a database that can handle 1 billion writes in few minutes with a single index. I ran a test with MySQL, PostgreSQL, Mongo, and Cassandra.
Postgres was a beast. 10x better performance than MySQL, 3x better performance than mongo
Admittedly I did use MySQL and Postgres out of the box configurations and haven’t had time to tweak things to see if I something improves. But that was the reason I never looked at MySQL as a serious database again.

My friends used to do that. If you book the middle seat on a half-booked flight, most likely no one will sit next to you and then you have an entire row for yourself.
It's a risky gambit but works out sometimes. Even if one of the seats will be taken, you still have 2 seats.

90% of engineers struggle with design. What follows is that 90% of interviewers struggle with design, so they design bad interviews.
90% of AWS products wouldn’t have existed if people could do proper design

Depends on the context. If you are uncomfortable to work with the customer without a down payment you’ll tell them: “in order to initiate the work I will request a 20% down payment, as soon as the money is transferred I can start working on the task”

Government and banks should not have the ability to print any money. The 2% inflation rate stat created by the government. In reality prices have risen by 6-7% every year.
Allowing government to create 1% of inflation will inevitably lead the government to create 100% inflation

you will end up doing switch type checks in any language.
You need to know what data you are operating on before you do anything.
well.. maybe not in JS, you can do array[i] += '1' and it'll work for all types. good luck with that approach.

Horrible advice for 99% of people. Yes some people generate excess heat and need coolness, they can sleep at 62f (17c). But you can’t, and you shouldn’t try. Hypothermia is a real thing. And you can cause serious health issues to yourself.
