Yep that's us--maybe half of us have CS degrees.
The funny thing is that the pushback is coming from the "regular" development folks. At least we're using git too :)
I recently hired into a data analytics team for a hospital, and we don't have a style guide. Lots of frustration from folks working with legacy code...I thought putting together a style guide would help folks working with code they didn't write, starting with requiring a header for SQL scripts first as low hanging fruit.
Or so I thought.
My counterpart over application development says that we shouldnt be documenting any metadata in-line, and he'd rather implement "docfx" if we want to improve code metadata and documentation. I'm terrified of half-implementing yet another application to further muddy the waters--i'm concerned it will become just one-more place to look while troubleshooting something.
Am I going crazy? I thought code headers were an industry standard, and in-line comments are regarded as practically necessary when working with a larger team...
Read our detailed comparison of the Canon EOS R6 vs Canon EOS RP to find out their strengths and weaknesses, and decide which one to choose.
As an enthusiast that takes portraits, travel, some macro, some wildlife, and a desire to do more sports and birding; I've always wanted to upgrade my SL1 to a full frame sensor/mirrorless.
Price is a big deal for me, and I want to buy once cry once--i want a camera that will last me the next 8+ years. Reviews on the RP look great, and I don't pretend to be an expert--im confused though, because while the R6 mkii has a few nice features I can't see why it costs twice as much. Is the R6 mkii worth the upgrade, and/or will it be more future proof?
I am on an on-call schedule for a hospital and i need to be able to answer my phone when it rings, even if I'm driving. If I don't, it may negatively effect people in a real way. I can pull over, and doing so on the freeway may be more dangerous than simply answering the call. My reason for posting this post is to help understand how folks are using hands free technology and other strategies to stay safe while also doing what they need to do. Entertainment is there too because I, honestly, want to get better at not being distracted while driving, I have terrible ADHD.
I didn't mean to offend with my response above, pardon me. I was trying to understand how this ties into other equity vs safety vs freedom topics more generally.
I don't think anyone thinks that folks should be recklessly endangering each other for no benefit but entertainment. People do endanger themselves and others for all kinds of reasons, including entertainment--folks motorcycle in the rain, they drive tall heavy cars, they don't run their headlights 100% of the time, etc.--should all of these things be illegal too, because they are less safe than convenient alternatives? Is that "reckless endangerment"? Honestly, I would probably say yes--but it's not like I'm an expert.
If we say "there is 0 tolerance for making our roads less safe", even for "good" reasons, then why not say men under 24 may not drive, and anyone over 80 can't drive at all. The safest thing for everyone would be to never drive, and that seems silly to say...not that I wouldn't love to walk to work, my kids' preschool, and the grocery.
I totally agree from a safety perspective.
To play devils advocate just a bit--this is objectively reducing folks productivity and quality of life, particularly for folks that aren't privileged to work from hom, live near work, afford to purchase hands free tech, or be child-free etc.. These folks probably already have inequitable quality of live/productivity challenges. Not saying it's a "bad law" or anything, safety is almost definitely worth it, it's just annoying that as usual the measure will most negatively effect more vulnerable people.
It would be fun to quantify productivity loss and quality of life loss vs. gains in safety/public health--i'll look around for statistics.
We're not allowed to touch our phone more than 1 tap when we're driving in Michigan.
I just got off of a 3 hour drive and realized I probably broke the law 10 times. I hate voice commands. Does anyone have a strategy for not being a total criminal while also staying entertained and/or productive during long communtes and trips?
