I was responding to the guy who suggested working remotely for a high paying US company. But remote salaries are adjusted to the cost of living so just because a company is paying $155k in LA doesn't mean they will pay that to someone working remotely from somewhere else.

Far more often than not 'duck-typing' provides benefits.
I reckon it's worthwhile having a look at the Plan 9 operating system. All devices on the system are accessed using standard file I/O, so apps that could read and write to files, could also r/w scanners, displays etc.

Programming language interfaces are exactly what I mean, though. Go already has interfaces without inheritance, and I'm saying that specifying which interface you're implementing wouldn't create an inheritance hierarchy out of nothing.

I don't know who you've interacted with to give you that impression, but my experience with the rust community has been almost entirely positive. As far as fake politeness is concerned, I can't say I've experienced it at all within the community (though I've only been dabbling in the language for a year or so).
I can't say this with any certainty because I don't know what you experienced, but is it possible you've misinterpreted genuine kindness and desire to help people entering the community? I've heard similar complaints from quite a few British people who interact with Americans on a regular basis, but they do typically relent once they realize (usually after living/working here for awhile) that there's no facade or malicious intent involved.

Abrash's book is more focused on optimizations and techniques used on Quake Engine with topics on 3D rendering like: Occlusion, Z-buffer, 3D to 2D Projection ,Triangle filling, 3D BSP, Visibility etc.
This should explain things from Doom Engine, where for example rooms/sectors are 2D convex polygons with Height for floors and ceilings, and walls must be perpendicular to the floors, 2D BSP, walls are rendered vertically, floors horizontally etc.

This being proggit, this will get downvoted, but here goes anyway.
You stabilize software over time, not when it gets written. The developer that didn't think to handle the error path in Go wouldn't have thought to handle it in any other language either. And the developer that did it incorrectly because they weren't thinking isn't going to suddenly start thinking when using other approaches.
But atleast when you're looking at the code in Go you can immediately see that the error handling isn't there. So that you can stabilize the code over time. With exception handling all you see is your program end.
My point is that there's a certain class of developer that seems to think code shouldn't evolve as time goes on. As if writing the code and then having to adjust the code is evidence that the code is bad.
calling it error prone is about the same as saying something isn't maintainable. It's a valid point, but it's big enough to drive a bus through and so people tend to try and use it to argue points by abusing the term.

I work in the US. I have paternity leave, holidays, paid time off, doctor time, sick leave, and 401k AND pension. I would say I have an average job.
Working in America is great if you’re outside Silicon Valley. Get your head out of your butt.

After insurance (say 800 dollars), rent (3500) and tax, (30%), on 120k, youll have about 2500/month left over, which is about the gross salary of an entry level developer in the UK. Commute, competitiveness definitely come into it, but it's not guaranteed to be better or worse anywhere. It is always going to depend.

Your right that Doom would never run on the Apollo guidance computer, but I used to run Doom on our 25MHz 486 with 4MB of RAM. Granted it couldn’t run full screen at a decent frame rate, but very playable at about 75% of full screen. Absolutely amazing how efficiently coded Doom is.

The 'spooky' music is to reflect the circumstances of Terrys mental health. It's a scary and emotional thing and music is the best way to convey that emotion. This YouTuber is known to make very unbiased and non egotistical videos and this was very respectful. He simply retold this man's story, not bully him. By the end of the video you feel a great sense of sadness because you come to the realization that this talented man fell victim to his mental illness and payed with his life. And this same feeling is being displayed in the comments of the video. Everyone is sad for Terry in the end. Everyone learns a little bit more of the challenges that those with mental illness face.
So no. There is no bullying or harrasing I'm this video. Just you, you, crying over something you don't even have a full grasp on.

Well I was trying to give you the benefit of the doubt there, but since you've clarified let me be explicit.
traits are not interfaces, your statement is wrong in all but the most technical sense. It's not an accident that there's a different word for it.

A free market for labour keeps labour costs _down_ any time there are more candidates than jobs. It only raises wages in sectors where talent is rare, such as software development.
Also, high salaries are relative. Costs of living, such as rent and healthcare, are _also_ the highest in the world. As a result, there seems to be a middle class of people who don't qualify for welfare but can barely make ends meet. Yay.
I live in a decently sized city in Europe and my costs of living are about €800/mo total including paying off a medium apartment in a nice neighbourhood. When I was in LA, it cost $1000/mo just to rent the tiniest apartment imaginable, internet was three times as expensive, and so on. I'd _hope_ your nurses get paid a lot more.

Just work through a simple example, take two scenarios, one where you are paing $1000 per month in rent for 10 years, the other where you buy a house for $200k, and pay $1000 per month in mortgage/taxes.
Rental case after 10 years you've spent $120k. None is coming back.
Bought place you've spent $120k. Conservatively you've paid off $60k of the principal. If you sell the house for what you paid, you are $60k ahead. You'd have to sell it for $60k LESS than you paid for it, ten years later, for it to be an actual loss.

Should’ve clarified I meant a top tech company since that’s what’s required to have the salary the post is referring to, and obviously not everyone can have those jobs.
Any of the most competitive companies in places like SF and Seattle will be easily paying that much for someone with several years of experience. And if you’re saving 100K a year invested in an index fund and have expenses of 40K a year you’ll indeed be on track for an early retirement. I won’t go into detail but there are plenty of resources online if you just google FIRE.
And I completely disagree with your claim that 250K looks like more than it is. Expenses are negligible at that point unless you’re just carelessly wasting money.

That's the irony. Management saves money on "space" and loses x10 or more on productivity.
Why? Because measuring productivity requires competent management, which again costs money that the business owners want to save, so they triple fuck themselves by being "business savvy".
Even more ironic is the fact that management NEVER uses the fancy "open office". They are very comfortable in their corner office.

Rust has concurrency as a language feature (there’s some details here, but it’s technically true), built in doc generation, single static binaries, and composition over inheritance. Some of these things are not in Rust because they’re considered anti-features, like GC or duck typing. Different languages with different tradeoffs!

I hear what you are saying, but I think that exaggerates it a little bit. Some of the most valuable conversations I have are when I talk to somebody by the coffee machine. Some of that informal collaboration turns out to be really useful in a lot of organizations. Being able to grab a beer after work can do a lot to build team morale and cohesiveness.

I never even heard of Terry before this video but afterwards I actually had a lot of respect and sympathy for him. The video is tasteful and respectful and gives you great insight into how someone with mental illness declines and degrades over time and stress. It's not a video you would laugh at. Maybe you don't use YouTube much or maybe you only watch video that appear on the trending page... Idk. But not all YouTube videos or YouTube personalities are these big celebrity want to be's who make 2 minute videos to giggled at. Some of them make real professional and quality content.
And this video is probably one of the best things to ever happen to Terry in his online life.

This is a false dichotomy, libertarian fantasy bullshit.
For a wealth of counterexamples, research average salaries for developers in western Europe. A quick Google search revealed the norm to between 50k-60k Euro annually, with some outliers. It's taxed at a higher rate depending on where you live... but that gets you free education, free health care, ubiquitous and inexpensive access to public transportation, guaranteed PTO, parental leave, government insurance for pensions, extensive labor protections, and so much more. The money landing in your bank account goes toward _your living expenses_ and not a litany of public goods you'd have to manage yourself in the US.
If the US has "the most innovation in the world" (it doesn't... there are innovative technology hubs all over the world), it's simply a historical curiosity, entities in the US having developed much of the foundation for modern internet technology. It's certainly not a consequence of a robust labor market.

With https://github.com/igrigorik/videospeed I usually watch videos on 1.7 - 3.0 speed. Works on every site except OneDrive.
Alternatively, play video in VLC (it supports YouTube URLs, or you can scrap many sites with youtube-dl) and use `[` and `]` for speed control.

Lol sports unions screw over their members so badly. I forgot to add that unions also help the union leaders, because that's obvious. Look at the sports unions and how little the bottom 80% of their players make, it makes software engineers seem like kings.
I don't know much about the SAG so I can't comment. I would guess that the bottom 80% of actors get screwed badly (mostly aspiring types I assume), based on how other unions operate.

I don’t think it tallies up with my experience either. I work in London and I’ve seen plenty of 6 figure jobs (when converted to USD) both advertised and on the Glassdoor.
I’d picture a Silicon Valley developer to typically be from a good university and working at a big organisation and making software that is technically challenging (in some way or another). In the UK we’d see that same profile probably in London, probably working in finance or a big tech firm. And probably getting paid or soon on the way to getting 6 figures when converted to dollars.
So while I won’t dispute that there are low salary programming jobs in the UK, there clearly are opportunities here.

Ok, I was being overly simplistic. What I wanted to say that most devs would benefit more by learning SQL over learning the latest.js framework, backend language etc.
New devs always ask React vs Angular questions, when in fact they would almost always be good with Javascript alone and some SQL.

It was good, back in the days of strong scaling CPUs and cheap memory loads. That's my point; it's the assumptions that you didn't know you were making that bite you in the ass down the line.
There is *no such thing* as absolute platform independence, no matter what your textbooks told you. If that were true, build systems would be a solved problem. We are always running on a platform. Is platform independence a design ideal? Of course it is. But it can't be magically invoked to allow developers to ignore proper documentation.

I'm not going to quibble about the word magic here, I'm simply going to define it.
magic is when things are happening that are unseen.
All magic in software dev can ultimately be understood, real magic doesn't exist.
What exceptions do is make control flow non-obvious and create unseen dependencies between code higher up in the stack and code lower down in the stack. These dependencies being unseen can have non-obvious repercussions.
They also terminate the application and allow the developer to write code without thinking too hard about the errors that can come out of a method call. We've all experienced the surprise of an exception bubbling up out of code that we didn't expect and thus ending the program right then and there.
That's not a problem you have with the Go style of error handling. Yes it's ugly, but it's also explicit.
> This can have a pretty significant benefit in readability.
Only if you're not actually handling the errors. The second you do, you start throwing away any readability benefit. We've all seen multiple try catch after every single method call because you have no other way to determine which specific method threw the exception. exception handling code can get real ugly real fast.
But more than that, the point of exception handling is stability, not readability. You're valuing the wrong thing here.

The Atari has similar raster palette switching tricks. Also, because of the GPU, it is programmable so you can do it with barely any CPU overhead. This also makes it easy to have two or three palettes and switch between them for each frame, giving many more colors the hardware wasn't designed to display. This Wikipedia article discusses a number of the [software video modes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_8-bit_family_software-driven_graphics_modes) that are most common but unfortunately doesn't show an examples. Here are some samples of the [APAC mode](https://www.google.com/search?biw=993&bih=1329&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=fp0NXLnrLuSVjwSl1LP4CQ&q=atari+apac&oq=atari+apac&gs_l=img.3...77731.79352..79473...0.0..0.123.532.2j3......0....1..gws-wiz-img.......0j0i8i30j0i30j0i24.S_li4JM4jkA).

Except the web never gets faster. As technology improves, internet speeds and bandwidth increases, protocols evolve and modernize - it just becomes an excuse to fill it with more lazy, useless, bloated crap that they couldn't get away with before. The end result being something just as slow as before, while providing no additional value or benefit to the consumer.

Wait so you sell the $200k house for $120k after having paid $60k of the principal and you somehow pocket the whole value and get your mortgage pardoned? This doesn't add up...
According to this [handy calculator](https://www.nerdwallet.com/mortgages/rent-vs-buy-calculator), break even point is typically about 4 years into staying put, if you have dozens of thousands of dollars for the downpayment. Now, what if you invest that $50k and your business grows? How about that opportunity cost?
Things are not as clearcut as you might assume.

[Here is NASA's own description of the AGC](https://history.nasa.gov/computers/Ch2-1.html) and the history of its development, both hardware and software. From the summary:
> The lessons of this endeavor were the same learned by almost every other large system development team of the 1960s: (a) documentation is crucial, (b) verification must proceed through several levels, (c) requirements must be clearly defined and carefully managed, (d) good development plans should be created and [53] executed, and (e) more programmers do not mean faster development. Fortunately, no software disasters occurred as a result of the rush to the moon, which is more a tribute to the ability of the individuals doing the work than to the quality of the tools they used.
