   This is described in http://carlos.bueno.org/2014/06/mirrortocracy.html Some companies stress interpersonal fit over technical ability, as you are initiated in "the Culture."

   >At times, it's incredibly depressing to me this is the case. How will people know about the human race if our entire culture is wrapped up in bits and bytes and discarded without a thought to their permanence? It will as though we never existed. You may want to talk to Jason Scott or other Internet Archivers. (He mostly goes from physical to digital, but I'm sure this subject would interest him.) In the meantime ha…

   For a very long time, I thought the "{" was called "birdwing" because that's how it was explained to me. When I try that now I get very odd looks. Related: http://carlos.bueno.org/brackets-of-the-world.pdf

   I don't think the paper contradicts the second quote. It just points out that things got a lot more complex since. "this again shows that getting software right is not easy." Not easy, yes, but in my experience getting software right isn't too difficult. What seems impossibly hard is keeping software right, maintaining correctness in the presence of new requirements, compatibility constraints and just sheer caring a…

    The article could be appropriately titled to reflect this wisdom: solve every problem in whichever language is your strong suit. It's not always Java, and arguing that Java is the one-size-fits-all would earn you few friends. For web services the importance of the language is diminishing with solutions such as cache, messaging queue, etc. I'd go on a limb to say getting your cache right is the most important web ser…

    In general, if you are depending on a secret cryptographic algorithm, then you are doing something wrong. Cryptographic algorithms are horribly complicated, with many attack vectors you need to know, and prevent. Chances are, someone writing their own code isn't going to make a secure system. By using a known, secure system, it doesn't actually matter if people know what it is. A known system has been tested, and de…
