One woman I worked with like the colour purple so everyone her desk was purple, her phone was purple etc. I recently had a retro where it was "Barbie" themed because that is .
      It is cringe meant to appease a child like mind.

    4:58 To answer your question about why Google doesn't migrate to the open-source variants of Google-internal tools (e.g., why Google doesn't migrate from Borg to Kubernetes), I believe it's because:
    1. The cost of migration is not worth it - given how much infrastructure and other Google assets (existing SWE knowledge, additional tooling, integrations with other Google-internal tools, etc.) are built on top of the old, Google-internal tool.
    2. Open-source tool roadmaps are steered/influenced by other companies (e.g., Google doesn't have 100% control over what new features Kubernetes will support in the coming years).
    My guess is that 1 is the main reason - since some Google products DO use open-source tools (i.e., some Google products use Kubernetes).
    (That said, it's hard to make general statements about Google, since Google is so big and each team is actually quite different.)
    Great video, BTW. I learned a ton!

    Stubby/RPC looks complicated but it’s really easy and convenient to use

    • @monad_tcp
      @monad_tcp Рік тому +1

      Choosing things due to convenience is not a very engineer way, ironically

    • @ezikhoyo
      @ezikhoyo Рік тому

      ​@@monad_tcp Than you are a bad engineer. gRPC and Protobuf has so many advantages above REST, some include version safety (including backwards compatibilty when you e.g. add fields to a message), type safety obviously, being much slimmer in bytes (because it's binary and not sending field names with it like JSON does) but also speed wise, as it's using HTTP2, therefore reusing connections. You open a connection to a gRPC service and then can burst hundreds of requests, without always having to open a new request which takes heaps of time. Apart from that, it also supports things that are hard to impossible with rest, like bidirectional streaming. A rpc defined in the service keyword can either (or both) be set as stream. That means, you could call a gRPC method, say "UpdateStatus", and every time something changes, you send a new message, but it's still the same request. Or you can get auto completion results as you type (every type results in a new message and the server is also streaming and sending requests as fast as it can). Or you have a batch processing scenario where you send mulitple messages, like chunks or files or whatever, and as soon as a message is done processing, you sent one back. But it's not coupled, so one streaming message from the client does not require a 1:1 response, you can also have the client stream however many it wants and when it's done, the server sends one single response, like "ok done, I processed all your 100 messages, bye now". But the video also depicted proto pretty bad. Javascript is probably the worst example for proto, because 1) the lang itself has no type safety and b) (i have never written proto in js, but) it looks kinda weird what he did in the code, like reading the .proto file and going from there.. because usually, in proto, proto compiles classes/objects for whatever language you are targetting. That means, you don't have to write the server and especically not the client yourself, you're only plugging the business logic. For java or go or whatever lang with type safety, proto generates messages in the language of choice and server/client stubs. For server, it basically creates an interface which you have to implement (which would contain all methods like UpdateStatus, etc. which you need to fill your business logic in, like querying from a database and then returning) and then call a method to create a new proto server with this interface. And you're done. Client even simpler, just create new instance of the generated client classes/structs, supply an IP/Port, and you're good to go. The object would then have all methods and handle the HTTP in the background. So no, using REST over gRPC in 2023 is nothing but being lazy. For new systems there is absolutely no excuse. Especically because proto can easily do REST (with grpc-gateway) as well. You can write options in each message (and rpc method) saying "this specific method would be a GET, this a POST and for that message, the name field should be in the path, etc., etc." and then it'll serve a REST API along to use. But gRPC was also made to be used for internal communication between microservices. So not having direct browser support is a feature, so to speak. Again, with grpc-gateway that is not an issue, but still, grpc is not really suited for it, as there is usually no authentication in microservices and opening them up for web is kinda.. not good.

    I loved your leetcode journey - but can you explain your journey of how you're 'fluent' in all these tech stacks? Looks like a huge leap from doing X# of leetcode problems to all these academic tech stacks. I've come across some of these, but I don't think I'd be very good if my day job required me to understand all of this.

    • @friction5001
      @friction5001 Рік тому +9

      to become fluent at these techstacks you'll most likely be reading documentations or getting help from seniors at google to guide you

    • @coherentpanda7115
      @coherentpanda7115 Рік тому +1

      You likely don't often interact with these special tools at Google except in higher level Senior positions. These tools are already built, likely already integrated in the stack and automated. You may only need to ever interact with one of those tools in your project, and documentation is thorough enough to get you started.

    • @tejeshreddy6252
      @tejeshreddy6252 Рік тому +15

    "Spanner is the crackhead database that uses GPS and atomic clocks to literally break CAP theorem." YEAH! It is f'in crazy and hard to use correctly. I've actually never seen an implementation that didn't have contention issues. But there is absolutely nothing that scales better.

    7:32 Why is that?. Vast majority of the courses/tutorials are really FE focused. Even the ones that are supposed to be "Full Stack:" are just using some BaaS to avoid work on the backend.

    • @NeetCode

      My guess is because it's easier for self taught people. Backend isn't crazy either, but it requires a bit more foundational knowledge, so a CS degree helps.
