Apple also rewrote the rules to allow Amazon Prime users to buy video content in their app as long as the user has Prime and already has a CC on the account
> “Apple has an established program for premium subscription video entertainment providers to offer a variety of customer benefits — including integration with the Apple TV app, AirPlay 2 support, tvOS apps, universal search, Siri support and, where applicable, single or zero sign-on,” Apple said in a statement given to The Verge. “On qualifying premium video entertainment apps such as Prime Video, Atlice One and Canal+, customers have the option to buy or rent movies and TV shows using the payment method tied to their existing video subscription.”

Well assuming Swift and Kotlin split the remaining half 50/50 (I think this is reasonable as most major apps are on both platforms and it is unlikely to use Swit for iOS but flutter for Android), they're probably only 25% each.
Unless you want to count them both as Native at 50%?
My only counterpoint to this is that for some folks, particularly at the junior level, forcing them to write out their questions into text helps them focus their ideas and what they are trying to solve. This process often helps them find new avenues to search and helps them answer their own question
I don't just offer to have a call when someone says "Hey I need help"
My approach is to have them write out the issue in text, and say what they've tried.
Then I judge the urgency and if it's a barn burner I get on a call immediately. If it's a Junior blocked on something that I think they can solve I will tell them we can have a call in a half hour or something and very often they do solve it on their own.
Essentially I use the async communication methods as the gatekeeper to prioritize the incoming requests for my time, but when I do give people my time it's on a call so I can give them my full attention.
Hi. After 6 months at a FAANG company during my first performance review my manager said to me “after the first 3 quarters I was going to give you a needs improvement, but since this new projected you’ve completely turned it around”. Several years later I am a senior software engineer at a large respected firm.
Take a deep breath. Treat each project as a clean slate. Ask questions sooner rather then later. Find the parts of the technology stack you enjoy working on. Take notes and write documentation for the next person when someone helps you. Be nice and courteous to people who take the time to share knowledge with you.
And if this doesn’t work out, there’s lot of other places that might be a better fit culturally. You’ll be fine
> Its hard for me to know whats a junior engineer error and whats an error I shouldn't be making at all.
I’m seriously not making a joke when I say this, senior engineers are only experienced by attrition. They got to where they are by making the mistakes before
There is no such thing a error you shouldn’t be making. Why does the tool make it so easy for you to ship a big in prod? Why are there no tests to verify the code you made? Why does your company not have a review process for dangerous or brittle areas of code
To everyone here saying “duh he got fired” I would ask you to step back and think about the implications.
Why would you take the side of a corporation covering a legitimate data breach over an employee that is broadly sharing that information? Why would you support a company trying to censor its employees on their personal social media page?
Yes, the employee can be reasonably and legally fired. But this isn’t the society we should be striving for and we should feel angry at Zoom’s response
You're conflating pointing out how the world works, with defending the way that the world works.
I can think that in an ideal world he wouldn't get fired, but I also agree 100% with "duh he got fired".
I'm also not sure that even in a reasonable ideal world that this wouldn't be consequence-free. He's inherently burning the political capital of anyone managing the relationship between those two companies and stressing their relationship. Even if the law doesn't allow the company to terminate him, there will probably still be social consequences. People don't behave like robots and they get annoyed at other people.
And if those people managing that relationship were so perfect that they could always understand the larger picture, and if the whole world was composed of people who were that perfect, we would never be in this situation because Okta would never have mismanaged the breach that badly.
