null | oracleoftroy | null | > The heap is garbage waiting to be reclaimed.
I agree with that. I was thinking of labeling every line that did heap allocation as garbage to highlight that, but I thought it might look like I was calling that line of code garbage and changed my mind.
One thing worth noting is that when my example function returns, the C++ version will have no remaining garbage, whereas the C# version (with the resource leak fixed) will leave some garbage on the street for the garbage collector to pick up later. It's a bit nitpicky, but it is a big part of the reason Adobe can with all seriousness say that C++ doesn't generate any garbage. I do prefer the more tempered version (which fits well with the point you are making) that says C++ generates less garbage than those languages that allocate nearly everything on the heap.
I do have to disagree with the implication that not having to do anything special to clean up a resource is "manual" resource management, but having to remember to call Dispose() or use a using block is "automatic" resource management. Heap memory isn't the only type of garbage out there, even if it is the only one C# manages automatically.

I haven't seen that behavior at a rate different than any other group. Might just be my experience, but plenty of folk lie (or a recruiter lies for them) either on purpose or just... inflate their experience way too much.

null | Kattzalos | null | The Unix Haters Handbook was written in 1994. I urge you to read [this section](http://web.mit.edu/~simsong/www/ugh.pdf#page=138) on usenet and tell me if it sounds familiar at all:
>A necessary but, unfortunately, not sufficient condition for a decent signal-to-noise ratio in a newsgroup is a moderator who screens messages. Without this simple condition, the anonymity of the net reduces otherwise ratio-
nal beings (well, at least, computer literate beings) into six-year olds whose apogee of discourse is “Am not, Are so, Am not, Are so....”
>The demographics of computer literacy and, more importantly, Usenet access, are responsible for much of the lossage. Most of the posters are male science and engineering undergraduates who rarely have the knowl- edge or maturity to conduct a public conversation. (It turns out that comparatively few women post to the Usenet; those who do are instantly bombarded with thousands of “friendly” notes from sex-starved net surfers
hoping to score a new friend.) They also have far too much time on their hands.
>Newsgroups with large amounts of noise rarely keep those subscribers who can constructively add to the value of the newsgroup. The result is a polarization of newsgroups: those with low traffic and high content, and those with high traffic and low content. The polarization is sometimes a creeping force, bringing all discussion down to the lowest common denominator. As the quality newsgroups get noticed, more people join—first as readers, then as posters. Without a moderator or a clearly stated and narrow charter such as many of
the non-alt newsgroups have, the value of the messages inevitably drops.
>After a few flame fests, the new group is as bad as the old. Usenet parodies itself. The original members of the new group either go off to create yet another group or they create a mailing list. Unless they take special care to keep the list private (e.g., by not putting it on the list-of-lists), the list will soon grow and cross the threshold where it makes sense to become a newsgroup, and the vicious circle repeats itself | null | 0 | 1491361972 | False | 0 | dfuiq10 | t3_63e1ws | null | null | t1_dftwhug | null | 1493806801 | 4 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

null | rebbsitor | null | As someone who's worked in the industry for 20 years, I disagree that they're interchangeable.
Programmer/Developer - this is someone who mainly writes code. They should be proficient in the language they're using and are mainly implementing software designs except in the smallest companies.
Software Engineer - this is someone who designs software. Anywhere from small to Enterprise applications. They will spend most of their time working with requirements and design documents (SRS, SSD, etc). You would expect them to know UML. They probably don't write code or touch the build environment.
Computer Scientist - this is someone developing novel algorithms, methods, data structures. It is often at the theory level, but requires a strong understanding of mathematics (set theory, linear algebra, statistics, etc.) You'd expect a Computer Scientist to be working on the cutting edge either in academic research or industry. Areas such as Machine Learning, Computer Vision, BCI, Deep Learning ,etc.
Information Technology - these are people that design and maintain infrastructure. Servers, desktop computers, networks, phones, etc. They're probably writing scripts here and there to automate some processes, but their main role is maintaining IT infrastructure.
They're very different jobs with little overlap other than they all work with computers/technology to some extent, but in very different ways. I certainly wouldn't hire someone with an IT background to do software engineering or development (believe me, i've interviewed lot of people over the years.) The skill sets are quite different.

As major sites with brand recognition and the work of millions announce short-notice shutdowns of their entire services, including Geocities, Friendster, and Yahoo Video, Archive Team arrives on the scene to duplicate as much as they possibly can for history before all the data is wiped forever. To do this, they have been rude, crude and far outside the spectrum of polite requests to save digital history, and have used a variety of techniques to retrieve and extract data that might have otherwise been unreachable.

I mean, API versioning is done since decades, starting with C and assembly. Anything that is not one "project" needs it, and it needs it even if it is one project, because mass (lockstep) upgrades of all sides are hard and undesirable for reasons like downtime and risk mitigation.
Swagger exists because the real world cares more about the RPC than it does about REST. REST is for human, not machine, consumption, really. Machines prefer RPC.

null | DonLaFontainesGhost | null | I prefer to talk signal & noise.
In my experience, more general "common" forums are high noise, but they can act as on-ramps for lurkers who want to contribute.
Submitting content and having it deleted *stings*, and can sour a contributor on submitting anything. Usenet had the top-level groups that were something like open mike night - a chance to submit some stuff, get some feedback, and gain one's footing. After a while, some folks will get tired of the high noise and look for a more focused low noise, more heavily moderated group.
The general groups also act as a waystation to ask which group might be the best place to go to.
I also have a creeping suspicion that many subreddits have rules borne of people who live there. This situation isn't really great for people who cross a lot of subreddits.
I used to be a pretty heavy content contributor on reddit, but any more I don't really submit because I can't be bothered with reading the stereo instructions necessary to submit to most subs. | null | 0 | 1491372026 | False | 0 | dfuostj | t3_63e1ws | null | null | t1_dfuiq10 | null | 1493809777 | 3 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

One tip is to figure out where a lot of the time is going, and document that thoroughly, then move on to the next big thing. That way you start to carve out the time to improve the rest. In our case we had a frequently occurring issue that took up a lot of senior engineers' time. Documenting the triage for that thoroughly gave us a bit of free time we used to doc further.
