I'm curious to those who disagree with the parent why, or what exactly they find is inaccurate about their statements.

"A permanent solution to a temporary problem" is a government's most practiced response.

The guidance staffeng.com provides is very useful, but is there something similar for one level below? I am nearly a senior engineer by title at my company (one level below it) - where can I look for guidance on getting to senior?

Do you have anyone who you can work with? When I first started as a SWE I pair programmed every week with a senior engineer on fixing bugs in the application. It was one of the most fun and deep learning experiences I have had.

Besides that, when I come across a technical article - or even comments here on HN - I print it out to take it offline to read later, highlight, mark up. Then months later I circle back to it and usually find that I'm a lot more familiar and knowledgeable about it than the first time - a kind of long term spaced repetition.

Reading other people's code is also really good. Do you have other engineers in your organization that you can read code from? If you don't, try to find open source projects in your field. Again, I like to print things out. It is the best way I digest something. So yes, I print out code to go over later when I'm having dinner with wine.

Sounds very fun and full of interesting challenges. It's not directly applicable because they didn't use underground dwellings, but you might appreciate the book "One Straw Revolution" for the spirit of community and simplicity of growing food. Maybe some people on permies.com would be interested or have advice.

Rust is already greater than Haskell. Not in programming terms, but in social terms. Rust won't die, or at least won't die the same death as Haskell. Rust, compared to Haskell, has already won.

No, I'm not trolling, and I do NOT believe the earth is flat. Everything about this "pandemic" seems artificial. It's been driven by media creating fear and hysteria, compromised scientists driven by control and fame, and politicians driven by further power. If you're curious for more perspective on understanding the false narrative, check out coronacircus.com or r/LockdownSkepticism — even if you think I'm crazy, maybe you'll have better insight into how I am crazy.

I've heard it's good for huge datasets that you want to shard, that mongo makes it easy to shard. The use case was per second location updates stored for at least 30 days

Since you bought them during a time of transition, I'd say that's not so bad. If you bought them new now I think it'd be more of a problem. And I am not a vegan that thinks you should just throw them away all of sudden - it's difficult to explain to people since they might see your leather boots and think you're a hypocrite, but better to keep them and wear them since you have them.

Oh cool, that's really neat! Thank you for sharing

Sorry, can you explain? As someone who's reinvesting time to learn C lately, I'm very curious

Did she /believe/ she was black, or she was pretending and knew she wasn't?
