listentojohan | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: I will become a father tomorrow, what advice could you share with me?

Congrats. 3 things that I found the most useful: - Know that it will get better. The first period, and periods after, will suck. But it is also very much worth it. When things are at the absolute worst, just remember that this too shall pass. - We got an octopus teddy from Jellycat - lifesaver! Baby’s hands will pull out the pacifier when they sleep - they wake up - you wake up. The baby could hold on to the tentacles instead of the pacifier, meaning everyone slept better. - Prep meals when possible. Cooks stews and similar for the freezer for those hard times when you can’t even think of cooking. Will make it easier to get a good meal.

Bonus: sleep whenever possible, and bring the baby to see friends so you don’t become a hermit.

My first though was Ishkur's guide to electronic music as mentioned in another comment, and which hasn't updated in ages. I then go into the wikipedia, and along to twitter, and see that there's been a countdown going on today - hoping it's a launch of a new version... https://twitter.com/Ishkur23

The data science team at my workplace mainly uses python, while the rest of all development is done in Go. Works mostly fine.

listentojohan | 8 years ago | on: UK mass digital surveillance regime ruled unlawful

I'm not exactly convinced this will change anything. It's the same for Denmark, and even though it was also ruled unlawful, it just continues. They are even planning on expanding it, and sharing data across public inst. without approval.

listentojohan | 8 years ago | on: The two questions I ask every interviewer

One of the good interview experiences I had, included going through a project I had previously done, framing the problem, how I'd have worked through it (with class/function level whiteboarding), and what could be improved. It was a project from a previous job, but too high level to be replicated. But could see how going through work from a previous job could be problematic (no code was shown).
