Each time someone tells someone something they must’ve heard a million times — Omg you’re tall — it reveals lack of theory of mind or selfishness: you feel discomfort at your surprise and instead of enduring you put it on this poor person who has to hear it for the 1000th time…

“member of the technical staff” has become its own hyper- status signifier . whatever pretension to humbleness in the original form is dead and buried . you should know that

Ten years in federal prison per offense and Piker committed multiples thereof, and on tape! Even if he's smart enough to plead down? He's going to be spending a lot of time in prison.

@moultano This is a crazy position to take on software specifically There are plenty of smart American kids who are unable to find a job Looks to me like importing cheap labor is distorting the market in a way that provides short term benefits and long term costs

People talk about this like there are software mines in the santa clara valley and you just need somebody to lift the shovels to dig it out. People's brains are the raw material that software is made of. It's only made here because the people who make it can immigrate here.

@MostlyMonkey @GayBearRes Assuming that includes transfers from parents I think a lot of kids either get rent money or their down payment paid for But, like, they’re still getting the money

@mitchellh @jasonshah Unfortunately it's always the big dependencies that we get hassled about, I'm not going to go write an http server though

@jasonshah That’s true for like… your OS or OpenSSL or something. But 99% of dependencies are something idiotic like a data structure or RGB color parser or something. Don’t update those if they work (esp if you’re already in a memory safe language)

The "never update" bit is pretty much the opposite of what every infosec standard and software consultancy will advise.
Mitchell Hashimoto@mitchellh

Fork your dependencies, trim them to only your use case, never update unless it breaks for your users. I’ve been vocal about this for 10+ years. I’ve always said that updating is way riskier than latent bugs (which can be tracked and CVEs monitored). If you are updating a dependency, it’s on you to analyze every single commit in the full transitive set of dependencies. If you dont see anything compelling, dont update! I remember at HashiCorp once in awhile an engineer would try to update a dep or replace a DIY lib with an external one and id always ask “show me the commit we need.” Dont update for the sake of it. Feeling pretty swell about this mentality with all the supply chain attacks happening.

Lamest thing about the "boomer whiners" is they never have a plan to expropriate and redistribute the boomer's assets. Their minds just blank at that point and they go back on an endless loop of emoting about how houses were 20K in 1980. OK, what are you actually going to DO?
