Specailly because public transport is amazing, living outside city is doable, while drawing comparable salary.

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?

I meant more in terms of anyone who has been in software industry long enough , 30+ in terms of age was just a safe boundary.

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?

Thanks this is inspirational .

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?

My problem has been are we playing catchup with the latest and greatest of tech, instead of solving problem's without rebuilding foundation every few years. At least in library/framework sense.

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?

Sorry about the usage of "old".

I meant more 30+ without any qualifiers , would try wording it better next time :)

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?

sorry about that, I will edit it.

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?

Sorry, I am in 30+ range. Just was wondering what everyone is else doing to stay excited about Software engineering because I was struggling with it.

Probably I could have better worded my question.

sorry, what's FOH ?

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: The State of FOSS in India

I started my career with Geodesic, handheld division, which @atul was overlooking as VP , IIRC .

Was really a great experience interacting with him and other stalwarts of FOSS at thats time. I owe my first job to him and Pradeepto :)

Just a side-note: just discovered your channel, pretty interesting content.

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Effective Airflow Development

Testing Pipeline in Airflow is bit pain, but great expectation makes runtime pipeline validation much easier. https://greatexpectations.io

For unit/integration tests we ended up doing lot of Docker in Docker setup.

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Huawei CEO: After September 15 No More Kirin Chips

I don't have enough knowledge of chip's logistics so my less informed 2 cents would be, thinking from a business perspective, if eventual dominance of chip supply-chain was in cards, Chinese businesses would have had done it regardless of ban existed or not.

So, this ban gives Taiwan and US businesses some breathing space to keep that lead. How its leveraged, is upto the governments and business's .

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Speeding up function calls with lru_cache in Python

oh sorry , somehow I missed it :)

shankysingh | 5 years ago | on: Speeding up function calls with lru_cache in Python

Thanks for article

Just a side note: with Fibonacci + caching it solidly become Dynamic programming problem so Time complexity reduces from quadratic to o(n), IIRC .

There is a whole class of problems where recursion + memoization(caching) = Top Down Dynamic programming , The other way to Increase performance and actually reduce call stack in these class of problems including Fibonacci would be Bottom Up Dynamic Programming

Some gists I found on it https://gist.github.com/trtg/4662449
