There are various rating systems, but it boils down to comprehension. 6th grade reading level is about the level to be able to follow the plot of Harry Potter.

Do ya’ll just not use linters?

If Microsoft knows how to do one thing well, it’s killing a successful product.

A lot of companies make their most senior devs engineering managers, and expect them to stay technical. I assume this was the case here.

Totally get that. Just saying that different people want different things out of their jobs, and it’s a good thing that there are places where all of them can fit.

Isn’t that the whole point of hiring people that fit the company culture? I’ve worked at both types of places in different stages of my life. Both can feel good or bad depending on where you’re at. Don’t try to change the job to fit your needs. Find a different one.

So streaming services are really becoming on demand cable. How long until someone bundles a bunch and makes a company out of it?

I’ve worked on dev tooling in a fairly large company. Especially for cyber security, do not get a Mac. A lot of the tools are just different enough on a Mac that they will make your life much harder.

I wasn't trying to go into typing as much as using structs or objects when working with known data attributes. Sorry that it was a bit misleading.

The original actually went into using trees, sets, heaps, tries, etc., but it felt way too... ranty. After writing all that out, I realized that most of those other cases come up really infrequently, and that my biggest gripe was about not using structs or other pre-defined key container types. I thought it would be better to keep things short and focused.

Maybe I should re-write and publish a data structures edition.

I love the addition of dataclass. Makes refactoring such a breeze. If you need to extract some function, boom, you already have a class that you’re using everywhere.

I’ve used pine64 boards for this. They have a few more options and are always available.

Keeping my fingers crossed that it would be a Definitive Edition feature, if nothing else.
