I'm a full stack software engineer with a diverse range of experience that spans from early stage startups to fortune 50 companies. I believe in a culture of trust over rigid process and simple solutions that deliver wonder. I love collaborating, learning, teaching, and experimenting. I'm particularly drawn towards building the thing that builds the thing.

I've been interested in using Linear but I don't understand the workflow. Do branches have to use the linear issue slug, for example? Is that the keystone of the workflow? I've looked all over for examples of usage to no avail and the Linear website mentions nothing in the way of docs or onboarding.

It strikes me as odd that a company whose software facilitates distributed teams so well doesn't embrace a remote workforce. I'm a Notion user with a ton of ideas and would love to help improve the app but there's just no way I could move to SF to do that.

I’m a fullstack engineer with experience in both startups and large corporations. I am proficient in Javascript, NodeJS, and PHP and looking for remote contract positions. My sweet spot is helping founders with deep domain experience who are funded and need to build a v1.

Do you recommend a condescending attitude at all times or just this time?

Mind elaborating? I just search for a podcast and click play. Never seemed to need much more functionality than that. What am I missing?

In an effort to fool us meat bags companies have moved to the term "Human Capital" in place of "resources".

Do employers often depend on "nanodegrees" (first I've heard the term) such as Udacity?

TLO and Mana are good players but Im not sure they fulfill your criteria of top humans at X

Exactly. Eventually eroding REST away to "RESTful".

ES5 is not better than ES6. So I prefer ES6 in that case.

> more thought than calling a dead-simple REST endpoint

REST shortcomings aren't necessarily found in a single api request. REST's shortcomings are the handful of endpoints required to get the information you actually want.

I'd feel more comfortable with my personal data if that were the case.

Secret variables are NOT output to Gitlab CI job logs... but if someone echos them, they WILL appear in the log. This may be obvious to some, but, I like to point it out nonetheless.

Examples include: use of globals, inefficient queries, mixed templating, lack of namespacing, doesn't follow PSR standards.

Off topic, I only recently found out about this book and it might be my favorite read in recent memory. Love seeing it mentioned in the wild.
