Was pleasantly surprised to learn that the author of this blog post was none other than the CTO of Stripe! Glad to see a CTO who's still hands-on and even willingly blogs about making so-called 'beginner' mistakes with the float/integer behaviour in Rust. Big props.
Nice! This made me think that working in tech at Stripe is likely to be more fun and productive than in other comparable places. I believe in experts leading, and I also believe in leaders showing their human face - the author did both :)
This is something I like seeing as well. Show your mistakes and let the rest of us learn from them. Real development is messy and shit happens, its good to show beginners that this is normal and expected
