Imagine getting your paycheck, buying groceries, and paying your rent, all using fake money called PrimeCoin or something. In Bezos We Trust
Yeah, I know he's not in charge anymore, but no one remembers who the new guy is yet.
Jammy? Jazzy? Something like that? (no peaking)

This is company scrip and has a demonstrably bad history.

In most (all?) Western countries, it is illegal to pay workers in anything other than legal tender. I don't see "PrimeCoin" being declared such.

I’ve worked with many software developers, some of them fresh out of college and others seasoned professionals. This article lists some of the traits these people seem to have in common. Habit 0: Avoid lists of "good" habits
At least that's the one I tend to follow (whether I'm highly effective is up to debate)

Surprise... at least is not totally bullsh1t.
I could even say that he has some points.
But...
Those points still are no warranty of being effective.

It's a decent list, though some of them are basically platitudes that could use more elabortation than can be expected in the typical blog post.
The one that I'd take some exception to is "Avoid premature optimization". In fairness, he mentions loop unrolling or caching as examples. Great. But at the other end of the spectrum is code that spawns a thread for every little thing, or repeatedly opens and closes a file while editing it, and so on. This kind of nonsense will have to be cleaned up later, so coupled with this rule should be one not to carelessly write inefficient code.

Our July 2021 release features mostly minor bug fixes. Does it also put a bow on it?

Why admitting you don't know things is so powerful I don't know if this is good advice

I know, I know, I should have realized, it can be viewed as rude by some people...
I was just thinking Socrates => Assassin Creed Odyssey => Malakas !

Not that I see it rude, but I know its most popular meaning in present times, that's exactly why I prefer not to answer back accordingly

Methinks they never worked in a publicly owned corporation. These words are dangerous in that environment.

Interesting, because my experience was different. I found that being candid was best. If I didn't know, why pretend otherwise? And if I did know, and therefore disagreed with something, no matter who said it, I didn't hold back.

Knowing if water is safe to drink could be as easy as putting a few drops on your smartphone's screen. Finding contaminated water may void your warranty though

I can't really imagine that it will work with all possible problematic water, at least not for a long period of time. What might bring a really dangerous sense of false security.

In a proof-of-concept, researchers reported they could embed malware in up to half of an AI model's nodes and still obtain very high accuracy. As long as the AI doesn't offer me cake
