We started with a monolith which made determining service boundaries that much easier. What we struggled with the most is the concept of sharing data between services. We started off with publish/subscribe method which quickly became v

Just out of curiosity, can you even maintain proper form with any type of intense workout training? I'm not a fitness guru by any means, but I've been working out fairly consistently for almost 7 years now and, to me, anything mor

I think the biggest uncertainty is what happens to exchanges on and after august 1st. So the recommendation at this point is to take your coins and move them to a secure personal wallet. I think if you can make a purchase and have the trans

We have half of the comments here trying to figure out what "sexual harassment" actually entails which makes a pretty darn good point in my opinion - people get triggered in different ways. This could be anything from an actual se

I'm not a YouTuber but I do subscribe to a dozen of channels. It seems to me that the sustainable channels are making their money from donations either via PayPal or Patreon not so much from ads which was my long-standing belief.

Oddly enough this doesn't really resonate with me. I've done contracting for 5 years and 90% of the work was focused on new development with the opportunity to get hired after the contract was up. Now this was a few years ago and
