    People (github in this case) do something to make your life easier so that you can save time for the price of 1 latte per month and you complain? Software Developers seem to be the most whining profession in the world and I despise this att

    They would have an ideal work-life balance IF they enabled full remote work. Their hybrid you-have-to-come-to-the-office approach basically means that you still need to live in an area near to the office, which basically means no real benef

    Which job boards with salary ranges do you use?
