in what industry does your previous salary not matter? (Not a snarky ask btw.) I have never entertained an offer blow my current salary, so personally find them highly correlated (sw eng).

definitely, there are sqlite csv one-liners.

in software, this is where "catastrophic" data leaks and security vulnerabilities come from, an engineer or team deciding to roll their own version of a security or cryptography library without having the proper experience to even know what they don't know.

I can't seem to find it, but I read a description for a game in development that seemed really similar to this, a farming/crafting simulator where you start in the basement of a house and can expand to the kitchen etc. You have to avoid the house cat etc.

I'm guessing the people downvoting don't know about "The Line"

this is an issue I have battled as well. Docker is great for normalizing the execution environment; which should be a huge boon for developer tooling but on MacOS having your laptop sound like a hovercraft just to have some files watched for hot rebuilds is no bueno.

Would love to see it!

that was a tearable pun if intentional.

Even if you don't change the interface, by doing fun things like writing types in go that accept strings or ints as ints to strangle a perl server binary and proxying unimplemented handlers, you can still end up with problems. We started having issues with our db getting knocked over by callbacks from our server fleet on an endpoint we hadn't even rewritten yet. Turns out the slowness of perl handling the tls connections had shielded the db and forced retries, switching to go meant the db was hammered with the concurrent requests from perl workers, unhindered by the tls handshake.

USPIS was Benjamin Franklin's greatest achievement, and yes I know he popularized parmesan cheese in America.

tl;dr: git gud

same! We actually built an 8-bit cpu, and while debugging some very strange, seemingly random bit flips, learned why you coil wires.

Makes sense, I am enjoying looking through the source as we are moving to an ansible and hopefully dockerized deployment model.

nope. I am sure there are but the ones I worked one were (non-os) mvps that kept getting new middleware and features bolted on until they were barely sustainable and got ported to another language.
