Tech interview antipattern: interviewer springs a “so do you have any questions for us” to the candidate after a long coding session or when there are like 5 mins left. IMO this should be a whole separate, no-holds barred conversation, if the technical rounds went well.

The citation chain usually works like this: -supposition stated as fact -supposition with reference to reputable book from c.1930s -reputable book from c.1930s with reference to Sir Edward Chortlemuffin, 1782 - Sir Edward Chortlemuffin, "here's a idea I'll fart out," 1782

Infrastructure will never become a priority because infrastructure at its core is a liability. Applications are profit centers. People and technology are investment centers. Infrastructure is a cost center. Your only role in infrastructure is to bleed less and die slower.

Einstein worked out relativity by finding the smartest physicist in his grad school program, dating her, having her do 1/2 his homework, getting her pregnant so she dropped out, then publishing both his and her work as his own, and then sealing her notes.🤷🏿‍♂️ A+B is "him and her."

Einstein worked out relativity with pure thought experiments and you need an A/B test to change some marketing copy.

That's correct. The reason platforms will nuke your account for drawing a titty is because American law makers decided that could be the same thing as sex trafficking.

Just hired a FT Senior DevOps for our team, and soon hiring a FT Senior Developer and I have zero plans to do any coding tests. I've found over the years most code tests tell me nothing about the future performance of a team member. Talking about their goals does.

When I did 4 months of looking for a new job last year I did a lot of code tests. All it did was piss me off how arbitrary some of them were. They told me more about the company I'd be joining though, which helped me realise a lot of companies still don't know how to hire.

i feel like this idea that wearing a mask isn't disruptive or annoying is largely held by people who don't have to wear them very much and are totally ok not doing activities for which masking is impossible (i.e. sharing a meal with someone outside your household)

I thought I was being smart by rounding up the payment into the “mortgage” pot to the nearest whole £, as I figured I’d eventually have enough leftover that it paid itself for a month. I just did the maths on that: 3071 months, or 255 years. I’m not very smart. 🙃

This obviously assumes you are in the luxurious position of not scraping to make ends meet, in which case obviously arrange it so you have to pay as little as possible and assume circumstances change in future

https://twitter.com/issyl0/status/1490314549240684547

The way I did it is to arrange the mortgage with the longest term possible so that the required monthly payment is low, then choose a monthly payment I'm happy with. It doesn't feel like overpaying then, and you've given yourself some headroom if you need to take a payment break
