While I kinda envy US salaries, I don't think I'd rather have to deal with insurance for possibly "better" healthcare.. You could also say that when shit hits the fan and your health goes to shit, not worrying about money is another kind of better healthcare. Having unemployment insurance is another nice feature you probably don't get in the US.

That java example in most cases is a redundant cast. The metaclass in Java is generic Class<T>. For example the metaclass for MyType is Class<MyType>. Because of this any method that accepts a generic Class instance can return T directly without the need for casting. You can also easily add bounds to extend method flexability. T <T> foobar(Class<? extends T> clazz);

We've chased after abstraction in programming for a long while, but what most programmers benefit from most of the time is automation, not abstraction. Type checking automates an important common abstraction - the form of data - while unit testing is only abstract where it requires an artificial test environment to be created. What just abstracting the code does, on the other hand, is make it a little more set in stone, harder to review and repurpose. This is correct if the abstraction is correct. But we often err in abstraction when it fails to give leverage to automation. For the same reason that you often see rules like "factor out the code when you see three repetitions, not before", the best abstractions come about when the code is "ripe for harvest" and there's a clear pattern of automatable repetition taking place. Prematurely abstracting mostly serves to add technical debt since it makes many assumptions about the bottlenecks of the design. A language that keeps itself a bit dumbed-down and conservative like Go is saying, in effect, "if you think you are tough enough to abstract me, prove it by writing a code generator." You can always write a customized abstraction with a bit of code generation or an interpreter. And that will push you to think harder about whether the abstraction is worth it. It does not leave the programmer feeling comfortable in the short term, and it poses a problem for intermediate skill levels that can use language-level abstractions but not do this kind of metaprogramming. But it does achieve the goal of avoiding premature abstraction.

Because it's optional when is shouldn't be. If the remainder of your computation is predicated on the successful execution of some function call, the language should force handling the failure case by default. In languages like C, you get sigfults when you forget to error check if you're very lucky. In languages like Rust, you cannot access the result unless you explicitly handle the error case. It's little (but important) things like this that made me finally drop C after using it as my language of choice for most of my career in software development. At some point, you'll simply run out of excuses to tell yourself to justify C's shortcomings. If you haven't given Rust or any other language with similar design directions an honest try, I strongly suggest you consider doing so. For your sake.

I think that go plays into the python space. Rust is about replacing c++. I'd love to see rust replace unix utilities. Maybe it could replace Java in places, too, except that Java is many years ahead and people have worked out how to get around the Java problems. Maybe go will fade because people get tired of being bossed around by the go maintainers who think that they know better than everyone about generics and nil and whatnot.

So, I'm going to argue that the biggest difference, by far, has to do with culture and communications tool sets. There is, without question, a _huge_ benefit to being able to have semi-random informal conversation with team members. Including informal conversation about cats or other non-work related stuff. There is also a _lot_ of value in being able to just drop into those random conversations because they happen to be talking about something that you know about. And when I have worked in an office, you had a large number of those conversations, with a 'good enough' signal to noise ratio to make them reasonably valuable. When I switched to working full time remote, most of those conversations went away, to the detriment of everyone involved. But on the whole, I would argue very strongly that the times I have been in an office are _not_ the times where I had the best conversations along those lines. Nor the most number of valuable ones. No, by a fairly good margin the best environments for me, personally to have those conversations were where the _entire_ team was remote, and where group chats were active. (IRC at the time, but stuff like Slack should work just as well.) And those had the strong advantage of being _much_ easier to ignore when I actually needed to be in the zone. It's not really about 'are we in one physical location', it's much more about 'do we have a good way to just talk about stuff'. Now, I will say that being the only remote person in a team of people who are all in the same office just _sucks_. The company isn't going to have the right communications tools, nor the culture of using them, and there will be a lot of hallway conversations that you are excluded from.

I can answer that for California - don't know if same laws apply in other states. After your sick time is up, and you've eaten through your vacation - you have two choices. 1. You can file for state disability which pays you at some percentage (either 33 or 66 - can't remember now) until you get better. Or 2, if you chose to contribute to a company sponsored disability insurance at the beginning of the year - it'll pay out your full salary while you are sick. In my case, after I ate through my sick time and vacation, my boss let me borrow those from the following year, so my pay remained the same while I was out. Source: I was seriously sick.

I don't know this video is so accurate. I'm a UK software dev and I would not go to work for < £50k because I know how much I make people, and if they fail to use me to make that much, they are basically stupid, so it's their problem. Past 6 years I've made people 100 times what they've paid me in the best cases, so use me for that, but don't be offering me small potatoes because you don't have the setup.

> Nope, London isn't more expensive than cities like Copenhagen, or Oslo, or Zurich, or New York, or Tokyo. You're right and wrong at the same time. https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/rankings_current.jsp All the cities you mentioned are more expensive than London, and yet it's true that "London is one of the most expensive cities to live in the entire world". While this index is obviously not the only thing people should consider there's a strong indication that going from $150k in Denver to $85k in London would be a huge loss for him. > Anyway, while you get paid only 65k in Frankfurt, remember that almost all over the Europe there is universal healthcare system, while you have to pay quite a lot in the US He said pretax. People like to claim that healthcare is free in Germany but it isn't. You pay 15% of your income into the healthcare system, no matter what you earn (though at higher income levels people prefer to get private ensurance that is calculated differently). With a salary of $150k that's $22.5k per year. It's obviously cheaper than paying for high end hospital treatments yourself, but you don't get admitted every year. Public healthcare in Germany are still companies and they still make a profit, just like every insurance company that wants to survive.

Well from what I've seen, my current job is pretty standard as far as tech goes, and yeah I've got that too: both short term and long term disability coverage (basically insures your salary in the case of any health issues so that you still get paid even in medical situations where you can't work anymore). Also have unlimited vacation time in addition to federal holidays, life insurance, commuter benefits, company retirement fund contribution of 5% of salary, etc. (Although while we're on the topic, the government does provide unemployment/disability coverage for those who don't have it too, although definitely way worse than what I have from the job and is likely worse than yours) Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending the U.S. as a whole, because it has a *ton* of problems, and we need things like universal healthcare like crazy, but what I'm pointing out is that the reason we need it is because it will help low income people. Top earners like us in tech already have a way cushier life than any government program like that ever offers anywhere. We get these high salaries and take no negative trade-offs in exchange...that's why the situation with tech pay in Europe is so dramatically worse than here. It'd be one thing if we got the pay but then had to pay our own medical bills or something, but we basically get everything someone could want because of how in demand the roles are.

I think from a business perspective you are right and that's exactly my cause for concern. What I found while working in the enterprise is that velocity is king and quality is not a concern. This attitude naturally leads to bloat. My experience indicates that as companies grow, eventually their only purpose becomes the service of the shareholders (i.e. raking in as much $$$ as possible through whatever means possible/necessary). Quality then becomes a dream in the minds of developers. The company senses this need of its idealistic workers so if they are clever, they put up a facade - internal meetups, hackathons, paying lip service to the ideals, investing into new tech, giving out gadgets, etc. - which lets developers think that quality counts so they don't leave. But in the end, where the rubber meets the road, spending time on quality becomes an anathema and everybody resorts to the usual method of bolting another patch onto the monstrosity which became of the product.

Yeah, I don't know where this idea comes from. I'm very familiar with Python and pretty familiar with Go, and they're just completely different.

Regarding FastMail, they recently made a [blog post](https://fastmail.blog/2018/12/21/advocating-for-privacy-aabill-australia/) which I think you should check out. In it, they make the following points: - They already have access to email contents in plaintext - For customers who use PGP to encrypt their emails, they already didn't have access to email contents and they still won't - They already comply with law enforcement requests when they are legally required to (after vetting the request) - So, the bill wouldn't affect them in terms of encryption and backdoors (a backdoor wouldn't be needed since they already have access) - They still are against the bill for a number of reasons

Why are you scared to answer the question "What do you do if you landlord locks you out?" There are only two people on hackernews who agree with you, and 10x that who agree that the paying renter should not be kicked out). Why are you scared to answer the question "What do you do if you landlord locks you out?"

What indeed. C++ classes are not pointers in any meaningful sense. I suspect what OP is referring to, is the fact that member functions receive an implicit this pointer as their first parameter. I mentally model classes as structs as functions, which is also wrong, but I still find it useful

Can we get medium banned from this sub until they actually start producing something decent. This post is just another 5 second job of looking at a bullet point list that someone else has done hundreds if not thousands of times before and then just reiterating what the bullet point is but in more words.

Fixing the "extremely slow" part of that makes it more appealing. Distributed write only databases sound like a great thing. Plus reading and writing are the only functions you ever really need anyway, all the rest are just rewriting history.
