A more thoroughly educated companion told me that the word Cotes (with some accent I don't know how to type) means "coast" in French, and that was in the name of the wine. Côtes. The circumflex, at least in French AIUI, oft

It's all about the dedicated room for me. https://i.imgur.com/ehJKHJ9.jpg Aeron chair, 4k monitor, some storage. I shut the door when the kids are home, I know which cafe I'd head to if the internet goes down, but

Home gym, quiet working environment with walls and a door, ability to receive online orders, monitors as large and high res as I wish to pay for, fridge and kitchen to myself stocked as I wish. Friends and family nearby if you want to lunch

I tend to agree. It wasn't that long ago that kids writing in cursive couldn't wield a quill and blotting paper effectively. Or a wax tablet before that. At least, until some Doomsday scenario arrives.

Quite. Equally, whilst Thatcher and Attlee disagreed about almost everything they had at least one thing in common – a loathing of referenda. There's been a lot of faux intellectualism and requoting of Poppler et al since the last re

It was reported elsewhere that it was the increased level of blue light. So perhaps something that can be addressed. Still, unintended consequences.

When they banned all filament lightbulbs, everyone was saying how bad it would be for the economy, but the industry was just forced to innovate and just a couple years later everyone is 95% on LEDs. And now we hear from a study in the EU

Possibly. Ha.

I avoid doing interviews, but I've suggested fizz buzz a few times to people I've worked with because it's so simple but once outside the environment of your usual IDE seems surprisingly simple to screw up. Whenever I've

This is so messed up. A company I work with used to have everyone use MBPs, bought for them if they didn't bring their own and people were actually excited to receive them. No one seems where to go next but it's pretty obvious no

Yep, though I'd imagine tablets won't address the deficiency for most of those.

Absolutely. It makes me laugh when the article says spring boot is opinionated - for dropwizard that meant picking the best tool for the job, for spring boot it seems to mean picking the spring tool for the job. I guess that's just the

There could be other factors. Anecdotally, I remember in the 90s my parents having an old and very box shaped Volvo. Driving through light snow one day my mother was struggling to clear the windscreen, we were on our way to pick up a hire c

Yeah. It's a tool, use it in moderation when most appropriate and you should be ok. Yegor often seems to take an extreme position, which makes for a good discussion especially as there's usually some truth in what he says but I

Yeah, it's supposed to be a role for a dev to play for 10 minutes a day. Unfortunately I've seen people with it as a job title. They were the absolute joke you'd expect.

8GB seems like a lot until you try to run Eclipse and chrome with 3 tabs open. Add in a time machine backup at the same time as a slack video call and it's game over.

Remote work is the only way I'd go now. Having had twins in the last year it's been vital. It doesn't work for everyone, but a way I've seen remote-first companies get around that is to offer to rent a desk in somewhere

For one, you're not considering malicious actors not acting independently. It's not easier to get an nth generation citizen than a naturalised one to apply for a CIA role. There is a way of limiting the severity of such a situatio

Likewise, I'm sitting on a late 2013 13" retina model. It has 16GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD. I just don't know why I'd pay more for an apparently worse keyboard and little else, even though it's just a business expense.

If you're deploying a dropwizard app as a war in tomcat you're doing something a bit odd.

For me dropwizard looks like what you'd get from a room if experienced Java guys picking the best of breed to do one thing and one thing well. Spring boot feels like it was from a room full of people where there's a guy in the cor

Yeah, I did. Although one day I managed to accidentally hand over my school ID rather than the fake one. Quite a quick walk out of the pub that day.

I lie. When I was a young, wet behind the ears, Java developer I answered telling them about making a modification to a Linux kernel driver for hardware support. It was a telephone interview but the silence was deafening. Still the only int

I've known a CEO of a company not know what the difference between Centos and Redhat is. All his company's servers ran Centos.

I've put some thought into similar deductions in the distant past. And measures to avoid them. Still waiting for the day a leak is attributed to the French because of the length of lunch breaks inferred from timestamps.

I've seen issues with this a few times and had to bite my lip quite hard when the cost of the software we were providing was compared to the (low) number of Porsche cars they could have bought instead. No, a Porsche couldn't do th

Strikes an odd chime when an article appears about marketing differences in a brand I'd managed to completely forget about despite having been one of those in the UK who'd enjoyed it before bed. I'm not sure I've heard i
