eko Engineering

Check out @OpherV as he takes a break from fixing his mom's computer to talk about implementing complex #animation systems at @ReactNext #react #developers #html #devcommunity #javascript

Excited to share my new series - #UIMath I'm going to show & explain the math that makes #userinterface work! 😄 We're starting off with LERP and how to use it to calculate progress bars. In the future we'll get to more complex stuff. What would you like me to cover next? ⚙➗

@YGLC_conf @YGLF_IL @Rich_Harris @sveltejs @Una @dsternlicht @mweststrate 4 eko devs attended that fateful talk which resulted in us Svelting up many parts of the @ekovideo tech stack!

During 2019 we celebrated @YGLF_IL where we had the honor to have @Rich_Harris with us. Rich introduced @sveltejs and his talk became a huge hit gaining +250,000 views so far. Here's Rich's epic talk + a special podcast covering his story: yglc2022.com/post/rich-harr…

Watch @OpherV build a multiplayer game with @trostcodes using @PixiJS & @Firebase in front of a live audience on @FrontendHorse’s #ComponentCarousel. Each participant got to play with their own procedurally generated monster! 👾 youtube.com/watch?v=wi0Bw8…

#Hasoub is an NGO paving the way for the next generation of Arabs in #tech & we were so proud to sponsor their 2021 conference, “The Change from Within”. Our @OpherV shared how junior #devs can lift themselves & kickstart their careers in his talk “Go out there and Rock🤟”

Video is everywhere, but our CTO @hofshy has a face for radio, so he went on @barvazg to talk about how we’re making it just as fun and interactive as other interfaces. An interesting discussion (in Hebrew) about tech and the people who make it happen. open.spotify.com/episode/741O5R…

Most importantly, keep your old dev PC around at least for a couple of weeks before turning it back in. There’s bound to be something else you’ll need from it (even if it’s just a sense of nostalgia).

Downloads folder: 99% of it is email attachments, memes, executables, old drivers, and other assorted, unsorted trash. The other 1% is probably important and let’s be honest, you’re never going to sort it anyhow, so might as well migrate all of your junk with you now.

Switching to a new laptop? Maybe a fancy MacBook Pro M1 Max from work? We got you covered. Here's all the stuff every developer needs to copy over but always forgets to: (Courtesy of @opherv who opted for a @Razer Blade instead of the Mac since he likes his win key to be toasty)

Speaking of things that kinda are and kinda aren't Tetris did you check out iFramily yet? codepen.io/asimen1/pen/qB…

Handling technical debt is a lot like playing Tetris. Or gardening. Or cooking. (and also like none of those things). Great post by @shaiyallin

Suddenly autoexec.bat means something completely different... @TheBadBatch #StarWars #TheBadBatch #maytheforcebewithyou #starwarsfans

Ok, so we have to wonder - the IT that has to maintain all these computer systems...are they a ⬜, 🔺 or a ⭕? How do the staff even open support requests if they can't talk to each other? Do they have a Squid Slack?

We know where we’ll be at 2pm EST tomorrow (9pm in Israel)…join us and watch eko dev @OpherV live on @FrontendHorse!

@vaidehijoshi We don't do that at all as a principle when we interview. If both candidate & interviewer can just google/memorize an answer, then it's just an empty ritual that doesn't predict whether someone's a good dev. def not useful for screening & frankly a bad use of both's precious time

idk why any of us are still asking candidates to whiteboard algorithms in technical interviews when everyone knows the hardest part of software engineering is resolving a gnarly merge conflict
