Great point, imagine learning about Roman history and some 3d models of the Roman cities pops up.
Work environment have changed so much in the latest years and I feel school remained the same. Last week a young family member asked what does excel do? and she's about to enter college, and we're talking about Ireland that it supposed to have a good school system
are they calling you? many companies have an automatic filter for CVs(one person won't read 200+ CV's), I was in the same boat till I used a CV parser, it digest your CV so programs can read it perfectly.
Once on a Data engineering interview I was explaining some diagrams and data flows when my nose decided to bleed, a lot.
The blood started to run over my white shirt, while I was still trying to explain why we were moving data from one database to another on a whiteboard, with one hand trying to stop the bleeding.
I understand using paper for Diagrams and arquitechtual design, but for coding?
On college I remember having to code on paper and you simply can't test your code for typos or small error, even if your logic was perfect professor give you marks for a missing ';'
note: the class was evaluating the Logic / algorihtm not basic code syntax
I dont understand how come condensation while de-freezing didn't damaged the components, but if you spill a bit of water in the keybord might damage the laptop,
>>you can't simply put up a bridge that would support 500 cars and say "oh we'll update it to support 5000 cars down the road"
In that case the requirement changed, it might require some extra support or upgrades to the bridge, if not we have to build the bridge all over again.
Similar in SWE, the requirement can change, if you planned a small MYSQL database to hold 2 Stores transactions and then "oh well we will need to support 2000 Stores Transactions" you might try upgrade the server or start from zero on a AWS cloud instance that keep up.
In SWE you still have the big decisions than can impact people and budget, a bridge can collapse, so the autopilot software can make the car crash
We're doing a env migration and we've been using spark diff extension for reconcile data, it's amazing, we've discover bugs in the data logic so quickly,
Once in front of my colleagues put a piece of paper with some writing closed,
I asked one of them to pick a number between 1-4 (they were drawn in a another piece of paper) he picked 3, then I asked to another write the first veggie name that comes to their mind, he picked Carrot.
I open the piece of paper that I put at the beginning, the writing was 3 and Carrot.
They were amazed, one of them got scared of the situation,
The thing is that I wrote the numbers 1 and 2 smaller than the number 3 and the number 4 was in very bad handwrite, and the most common Veggie that people think first it's carrot
