So that I look prescient, I predict coronavirus will go widespread in the US, like flu does every year. My kids & my wife will probably be fine (all under 49), but a lot of olds will die (earlier) than they were planning to.

STATUS: Learning R. It is only 1 letter long, how hard can it be

nobody:
me: My current top car choices
1) Leased Tesla 3
2) Used Tesla X
3) Some Toyota or Lexus Hybrid

Enough people use swarm that it is hard to get a mayorship in most places, but not enough for anyone in my social network to be a regular user. Or maybe there just isn't a use case for tracking their physical location

META: Twitter should have a place for next to you bio for flavor text, which will have no effect on your abilities, hit points or the damage you can do in an attack.

That guy is going to be so surprised when he finds out the pay is a bag of 145 actual letter Ks

It's not so much of a BDD pipeline as a BS pipeline. https://x.com/ExpertBeginner1/status/1230865759863103488

Did the copy-paste guy make a copy of himself before he died?

Paperless billing is a scam to drive up revenue from late payment fees. Companies that offer it are f'n anti-consumer. It doesn't stop the endless promotional mailings, just the bills.

I'm trying to make a "functional try-catch" in #python. Again.

In JavaScript this was easy-- it was easy to create a multiline lambda anywhere. Any ideas?

There is nothing wrong with being a jr developer

Don't cheat on interview programming puzzles, lie about experience on your resume. Tell the interviewer what language you know best if the question isn't in the same

But y'all are all super folk, so I didn't need to tell you that

Geneology is bad for your sleep. It always, oh just 2n more grandparents and I'm done. It's never 2n. It's 2 cubed n, and now it is 2am.

Someone put all the self reported Tech salaries from twitter on a spreadsheet- https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22334702

#Python. If I want to continue or break out of a for-loop nested 4 for's deep, I should be allowed to. C# can.

AWS Step functions are so much better than their name implies. It is a workflow thing, it is a message queue thing, it is executable diagrams, it is massively parallel processing, it is a serverless/lambda programming style https://x.com/Shentonfreude/status/1229828403127255040

I think this is the most votes for a survey. My wife said, "really? we should consider moving" https://x.com/mistersql/status/1228672887084789760

Unlike the military that is known for team building & caring about Espirit de Corp, a typical DC software dev office is utter neglect & contempt for social aspects, leading to "Lord of the Flies" cruelty & people betraying their org to wikileaks

I've seen more wild dolphins today in Virginia Beach than I've ever seen before in one place. Like 12 at least.

If you're a software developer, would you move to SF, NY or Boston for a $300-$500K a year job (2/3 cash, 1/3 stock)

I used to think I understood tech salaries. Now I'm seeing in San Francisco, New York, Boston - $300K-$500,000 tech salaries (not management, not startup founder cashing out)- nothing makes sense.

What are you using to reformat your yaml?

Sonar doesn't like pycharm's style.

software dev boot camp with "ISA" student loans where you pay 17% of your income up to $30K...except the quality of study is totally dodgy & the customers treat this like a biz-op (bet your future income that you can escape poverty now) https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/11/21131848/lambda-school-coding-bootcamp-isa-tuition-cost-free

I think to copyright these, (max 10 per registration) is 68 billion/10 * $55. Then you need to litigate each infringement. https://x.com/codinghorror/status/1228035069836611584
