Everything is open source for this guy after using this simple trick. Big techs HATE him!
NGL I apply to places where I use the software. But it’s not one thing, it’s a dozen things I would fix.
I actually never successfully got the job. Probably because during the interview, I come off like a rambling psychopath pointing out extremely specific things.
Part of my previous company’s hiring process included having the candidate use our software, then asking what they thought of the experience and what improvements they thought would have the most impact. It wasn’t entirely useful because devs weren’t in control of prioritizing changes, but it was always interesting to see which pain points stuck out to the candidate.
Honestly, anybody with a gender studies degree can get into software developer nowadays no sweat, nowadays the fortune 500 standards are so low that they’ll just hire anyone on the spot without even questioning it. Honestly only started to take note of this the second Biden got into office, the quality of software overall has gone down. Overall, back to open source, I never truly got the open source movement in general, never been my thing. Proprietary software is inheitly more secure which is why most enterprise systems still use windows xp.
That screams: Open you source code and accepted correction !
Let the patch be part of the code for one or two minor releases. Then revert the changes of the patch.
inb4 they wait until his last day then roll back the changes because functional code/unauthorized changes are against company policy and actually they need that bug to slow down the user so they don’t click so fast the database crashes.
