When seeking a new job, it's important that software engineers have diverse skills in multiple coding languages, a new survey concludes. "Gotta catch 'em all"
OK, at least they didn't include HTML in the list
|
|
|
|
|
That's based on the premise that a software engineer is willing to take just any job. I find web and database front-end development loathsome, so have no desire to learn Javascript, Ruby or whatever. Yes, this severely limits my job searches, but it's been worth it.

Physicists have experimentally demonstrated an information engine—a device that converts information into work—with an efficiency that exceeds the conventional second law of thermodynamics. "In this house, we obey the laws of thermodynamics!"

So much repetitious information! Does that work?

A survey of 1,700 bug bounty hunters registered on the HackerOne platform reveals that top white-hat hackers make on average 2.7 times more money than the average salary of a software engineer in the same country. My next get rich scheme: quit and come back as a bug hunter to fix my bugs
|
|
|
|
|
Thats such a useless comparison, what does the top bug hunter earn in relation to top Software Engineers, or an average bug hunter in relation to average software engineers.
|
|

Simply shocking coverage:
0) The top people in a specialized sub-field make a lot more than the average person in the general field.
1) A sub-field that largely pays the same globally (via bug bounties) is proportionally more lucrative in countries with wages much lower than the global average.
What are they going to publish next?
2) All code has bugs.
3) Anything can be hacked eventually.
4) All lists should be 0 indexed.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Totally read that in the "Macgyver voice"

But is it just new wine in old systems?

That's a bad idea, because new wine will expand causing he old system to break. 
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

Sitting in a bar, you start chatting to a man who issues you a challenge. He hands you five red and two black cards. After shuffling, you lay them on the bar, face down. He bets you that you cannot turn over three red cards. Alternately, how to cover your tab tonight

If anyone ever bets you something you can be assured that it's heavily in his favor.
