It's crazy how bad the job market. I got laid off on January 26th, and it's been rough. Getting interviews has been unusually difficult
Very little communication from companies I'm applying to, even after doing interviews
I'm looking for software development roles, ideally in a modern Java stack, or Ruby
I have 4 years of experiencewith mostly Spring Boot, as well as some Node and Rails. I've also done React, Bootstrap, and Ant Design for the front-end
andrei!

AiresDo you, or have you ever, used a graphical user interface? If you use #Windows, #macOS, or any version of #Linux with a window manager or desktop environment, you can thank Dr. Clarence "Skip" Ellis.
Dr. Ellis worked at Xerox PARC, the research organization that developed the modern GUI. Icons, windows, the mouse, Ethernet-based networking, laser printing - all of these (and more) came out of PARC. Dr. Ellis led the team that created Officetalk, the first program to use icons and the Internet. He got his start at 15 years old showing a local tech company how to reuse punch cards, which was a game-changer back in 1958.
Oh, and he was also the first black man to earn a PhD in Computer Science.

SwiftOnSecurityIn my hands is my first iPod. Steve Jobs is smiling at me. Everybody at the Apple Store is smiling.
I take off my Apple Vision. I am back in the retirement home. Nobody has visited me for 12 years. I put it back on.
I hold my iPod. Everybody in the Apple Store is smiling.

This sneaky 1-line change sped up subprocess#communicate 1000x+
One of my favorite little fixes I’ve done at Stripe unrelated to my day-to-day work was fixing an accidental O(n²) behavior of Subprocess#communicate that made communicating 1GB worth of data ~1000 times slower than it needed to be. This ended up reducing runtime of several batch jobs from days to minutes/hours, among other things.
