Motivation and Objectives

Enterprise software often has more non-functional requirements to fulfill because of the nature of the business of large companies. Think about it! Large companies often buy smaller ones. When that happens, some integration work of the two companies is imminent. Very often the case is that there is a mismatch between the acquiring and the acquired company's software stack. For example:

• cloud provider and/or other software hosting solutions
• tech stack
• tech standards (secrets injected into the FS vs. read from the network at boot time)
• etc.

A pattern for using GADTs to subset cases

Consider the following straightforward mutable queue implementation using two stacks:

type 'a adt_queue = {
  mutable head : 'a head;
  mutable tail : 'a tail;
}

module type T = sig
  module type S
end

module T = struct
  module type S = T
end

module type K_Bool = functor (X : T) (Y : T) -> T

type NatModule<Nat> = {
  
  zero: Nat;
  one: Nat;
  add: (x: Nat, y: Nat) => Nat;
};

const NatModule = <A>(cb: <Nat>(Nat: NatModule<Nat>) => A) => {
  const zero = 0;
  const one = 1;

Understanding Nix Inputs

Every Nix derivation produces a Nix store output that has 3 things:

• Executables
• Libraries
• Data

Executables are always exported using the PATH environment variable. This is pretty much automatic.

I bundled these up into groups and wrote some thoughts about why I ask them!

If these helped you, I'd love to hear about it!! I'm on twitter @vcarl_ or send me an email [email protected]

Onboarding and the workplace

• How long will it take to deploy my first change? To become productive? To understand the codebase?
• What kind of equipment will I be provided? Will the company pay/reimburse me if I want something specific?

const some_module = require('some_module')

/**
 * require('some_module') calls Module._load
 * 
 * Module._load then tries to load the module with a filename (also save it to the cache) using module.load(filename)
 *
 * module.load(filename), given a filename, passes it to the proper extension handler ('.js', '.json')
 *
 * If there were any errors when loading the file, it deletes the file from the cache (delete Module._cache[filename]) and throws an error
