2FA isn’t as scary to implement as you think, and I’ll prove it to you in 3 steps. — Two Factor Authentication (2FA) is a second layer of account protection, which I highly recommend everyone should enable.

4 Things You Should Stop Saying to Developers

Stop asking us to hack your exes' Facebook account. — I grow weary addressing the mountain of questions and comments as a software developer. Most of the questions and comments don’t make sense because they‘re grounded in stereotypes. What we learn and what we do takes a lot of time, energy, and dedication. Our profession is no different than the…

There's a really critical problem with this story, the junior was not completing their tasks on company time (and they clearly weren't trying to make up for that work on their own time). Regardless if a company has that policy, it is outlandishly disrespectful to miss (not one, but TWO)…

Cheating without a doubt is not the way to go, but this also exposes a major problem with interviews (and my personal gripe). Interviews are not testing on skill or actual problem solving, they're testing how well a candidate can memorize solutions and algorithms, and how fast they can spit…

We're at a point where we need to start reimagining what marriage, families and happily ever after's look like to us. We've been conditioned to believe that the order of events are: Marriage > Kids > Retirement But women are evolving in our society. We're not just caregivers anymore.
