/ Still not great I guess

We have copilot as an automatic code reviews. It mostly catches my bad spelling, occasionally finds a real issue, and often is incorrect.

Yep. I can’t spell today

Not necessarily obscure, but I don’t think Tries get enough love.

Edit: I can’t spell

I assumed it was a personal name, but I don’t know.

/ If your language has 58 ways to accomplish something like that, you’re in for a bad time.

Such hits as ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘x’, and ‘y’. I know the version of the language we were using didn’t have native utf-8 support, so I don’t think kanji varnames were possible. It even made comments in kana and kanji really wonky (I think the comments were shiftjis)

You got 3 letters?! Luck!

I worked at a japanese company whose engineers we’re former NTT developers. Copypasta (i.e. not using functions), inefficient algos, single-letter var names, remote code execution from code as root, etc. good times!

We’re stuck on Mac at work and I hate it.

I’d love to at some point but, last I heard, it breaks the felica and wallet integration which I need to do japanese government stuff (and use the train and such)

It’s bamboo common here in rural Japan. We have two types, one of which has edible shoots in the spring so there’s that at least. It does hold the ground together along the riverbank so I never plan on fully ripping it up; last thing I need is for a chunk of my property to slide off in the next big quake.

I’d rather some more of it be human food, but maybe that’s out back. I’m slowly turning areas around the house I just bought into native stuff and food. It is, however, a constant battle against kudzu strangling and bamboo encroaching. I generally avoid having anything that tall and unkept (as some areas look to be) due to venomous snakes that can bite when surprised :/

Not necessarily. Maybe because I’m old, I don’t think being out in public and having that delivered to an audience way bigger and further outside that area without consent is right. If I’m walking by in a shot or something, I don’t mind at all. But if it’s someone sitting nearby when I’m at a restaurant or bar or something, that starts to get weird for me. I did also have a stalker once which definitely did shape my view on this more.

I should have the right to not have my voice or likeness recorded and sent to some unknown, private company without my consent.

move things, breakfast

Ah, sorry. Stupid race conditions.

Boring answer: older repos are master, newer ones are main. I’ve worked at companies that did other things such as having the prod branch be a branch called prod.

A child reads the headers and encodes each message brick by brick. Several receive the same message due to frequent errors

I have tortoise git on a windows machine and GitHub desktop on a Mac. I do some things from the command line when I’m not feeling lazy.

I switched companies. I started go when replacing php at a previous company. I wanted to do rust at the time, but my options from the CTO were go or newer php (we were 5.x IIRC). I chose go.

My current company decided on go before I started. There’s some python ml stuff and some other things in functional languages, but we’re primarily go. I don’t know why specifically it was chosen. The old codebase was a bit of go and the original legacy in Ruby. I’m definitely glad they decided to move away from Ruby slowly (and compleltely in the new codebase).

I’m mostly making sure they didn’t completely lie about being able to work in the language and can explain what and they would do, why, and how they respond to feedback. I expect people to be varying levels of nervous and that’s fine. I work with people to get them focused and take the edge off as much as possible.

What I ask for usually is related to what we need to implement, but a more basic chunk of it to, for example, show that the candidate understands concurrency and can use basics in the language to do something with that (which we do frequently).

For many positions, we do not have homework and this is the only coding we get (kinda depends on role and project).

As a newer company and still technically a start-up, the boss paying the bills can decide we need to chase something else and he isn’t being talked out of it. This can lead to very fast collaborative design and coding of PoCs which can be more intense than the interview. I don’t like it but it is what it is. Not everything we do is nice, stable, and long-term.

I can relate to needing that job; I’ve been homeless, so I definitely kno the hat that pressure feels like and why nerves alone are never a deciding factor for me.
