It's spent more of its life than not above both figures.

I think Article 50 doesn't mention it. I'm not sure anybody can really be sure unless it's tested in court.

The EUR hasn't exactly been rock solid against USD in recent years.

No, I'm not. Not sure why you'd feel the UK would make less good use of your tax receipts. UK corporation tax is on the way down. It'd be higher in NL anyway than in the UK. Enjoy the cheaper rates and if you really feel obli

For the most part as an employee, do it on work time. If you need an important algorithm or data structure, then put extra time in beyond the one you know you can make it work with. Pay as much attention to what's not suitable for the

I know I'm struggling with modern JavaScript tooling. I've been using React with JSX and maybe as little as React router too. Trying to get router added was so painful. NPM, Babel, we pack, grunt, gulp, etc and then you find you&#

Yeah. I had what was termed a "tolerated fail" on what I think was the equivalent on my (UK) course - "Foundations of Computer Science". Tolerated as in because I scored high in all other modules I didn't have to re

It's weird, isn't it? They seem to be going from pillar to post, ditching products that may not set the world alight, but were surely never going to. Neither can they be dragging Google under. Meanwhile they're acquiring a re

Usually the best indicator of this is when the initial snaglist for a piece of work grows after the snags have been "completed". I think that's probably quite normal, except for small pieces of software. If the snags aren&#

I prefer natural light, when the time of year allows for it. A decent chair, a high res monitor and quiet go a long way.

Who cares what the membership fee was without considering how that fee is redistributed? The UK is one of very few net contributors. They haven't leached, quite the opposite.

Not always. A pilot in France who's British but lives in France, is paid in the UK by the airline, tells me he pays income tax in the UK based on flying time in UK airspace (not much, he flies long haul, though he's restricted on

You're right, unless you're at an extreme (zero automated testing, zero bugs found in the wild) it's much more nuanced as to what the balance is (or should be), but there is a balance.

For me, I imagine the dropwizard guys sat round asking each other what the best servlet container is, web MVC tool, ORM, DI framework, etc, etc. and they choose the very best they can think of for a dev to work with. Then a couple of years

Maybe. Personally, I've come to think that you need the right tool for the right job. If you spend more time writing / running tests that you would fixing the bugs they find, you may be doing it wrong. If you're writing docum

It's a mess, isn't it. I'm still on an HTC One M7 (2013) with 5.0. And I'm a software developer who just sticks it on the business. I was all set to get the new Nexus, looking forward to the marginally quicker software u

Apologies, I mistook watercooler as literal rather than a metaphor. I agree the little things that mimic, or substitute for, the subtleties of working in an office are still vital when working remotely.

FWIW, while this is important, it happens in remote working environments too.

Yeah, my wife's said similar to me in the past. Of course, you can't argue when they're pregnant. My wife's 8 months pregnant with twins at the moment; I think she's probably at the point of admitting defeat but she

Indeed, I couldn't agree more. Though I'd be happy for them to be coerced into providing the petabyte+ datasets too. If they can afford to store them they should serve them. I believe the UK signed up along with the US as part of

I've got an Aeron. I've been through a few others far cheaper and near enough as good for sitting in but they broke so quickly with effectively zero customer service about that the 10 year guarantee was worth it. I've had it

I tend to start with a monolithic service. Sooner or later you get a feel for which bits are becoming at least API stable and could run independently. That's when I split them out. Do it too soon and you end up choosing the wrong bound

I think the open office trend might be accelerating remote working opportunities, which has to be a good thing. I don't mind going to an open office occasionally if 90% of my week is working from my own office with walls, a chair setup

Why the downvote? With the exception of the Eurotunnel route, customs checks remain unaffected by juxtaposed immigration controls and continue to take place upon arrival after disembarkation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&
