Front End Engineer roles pay less than general Software Development Engineers at pretty much every FAANG

Not in my experience for the last 5 years, looking at two job ads and comparing the salary range, they are usually the same. Which FAANG still does this?

This seems like a trifle not justifying the unusually harsh wording in the press release, combined with the hasty decision. Doesn't really add up.

If anything you'd probably drastically increase your salary if boomeranging. Inflation has been no joke these last years, and getting a new job usually outperforms a promotion by a large margin.

I've always done it like this as well. Initially I did it for the most obvious reason: it gave me the working software that I needed the fastest. Then later on, I always found it to be the best way to find natural abstractions as you go.

Cross Platform UI is a myth

How can you say this when many of the worlds most used apps are written in React Native? Same with Electron and desktop apps. I find it hard to believe you can be more productive writing native code when you need two entirely different codebases, compared to a single one, no matter how good of an iOS and Android developer you are.

iTerm's session restoration. It just works, without manually saving or anything. Saved me tons of time from reboots or crashes.

It might even be >1 considering many postings in the Who's hiring have multiple comments (some 10+).

This is very cool, impressive work in 2 weeks! Each action seems to have some delay after it, is there any reason for that? Is it because you are streaming the OpenAI response and performing the actions as they come? If not, I imagine streaming the query response and executing each action as they emit would speed it up quite a bit?

Software development isn't really about just acquiring and memorising knowledge to later spit out. You need reasoning, logic and creativity. That AGI can develop complex new software (not just some code that has been scraped of the internet years ago) in 10 years is something I doubt.

The Medallion Fund by Renaissance Technologies has had an average annual return of 71.8% from 1994-2014.

By only testing and building packages that has a dependency on the changed package.

Does anyone know how many of these are in engineering?

I always thought NRK TV was so well done and beautiful, glad to find someone else that feels the same way :)

It certainly doesn't help his case. If you have had troubles with the law prior to a new crime, it gets taken into consideration negatively by the judge. Same with cheaters. It means he is a cheater by definition and has the moral compass to cheat again.

It works great with the VSCode extension.

What do you mean? Which extension?

console.log({ variable }) when debugging

You pay a premium to let your devs work on what matters, the actual product, not tinker with devops tools for hours on end on something that has already been solved. Something to keep in mind is that infrastructure code has to be updated and maintained as well, with services that gets handled for you. It would be interesting to see how much of a difference in price it would make over eg. a year.

I think that for the average developer, these tools will soon be obsolete. For frontend applications, hosting services such as Vercel and Netlify gives a far superior DX. For backend, Vercel does the same, or other BaaS' like Supabase that gives you most you would need to create a fully fledged app with easy to use API's. The only downside I can tell, is the pricing, but compared to dev hours saved, it's probably a net benefit.

No, it's YoY, meaning from May 2021 - May 2022 prices rose 7%. From June 2021 - June 2022 prices rose 9%.

Could you explain it to me?

I've always been confused by this, as most studies show around 5~ hours a day is the maximum your brain can do work that requires deep focus (programming etc). So what are these people doing where they can work 10+ hours days? You will see seriously diminishing (and often negative) results when overworking. You'll end up waking up the next morning cleaning up and fixing bugs from your overworked brain.

What exactly do you mean by this?

No, the loss deduction is capped at 100% of your investment, no tax benefit can go infinite. And also assuming the market over time goes up...

Why is it more important? Anyone would take no tax on gains over loss deduction any day

It's... the modulo operator

ES6 really has nothing to do with isEven and isOdd

Yeah, that's exactly what I would imagine vanilla js code look like, and I'm glad we moved on to frameworks. Just this small app seems not so fun to maintain

Just look at Facebooks last quarterly results and guidance. When the company itself tells investors it's dying, it probably is.

GCP must be down.
