You are working for free, please don't do that; Mr. X is taking advantage of you.

10 hours/day would leave me K.O for the rest of the day. What's the point? It's probably not even healthy.

Exactly. Around 75% of the people I know (teenagers, youngsters, adults) from a variety of backgrounds (tech, health, no education, etc) don't have a Twitter account nor check Twitter.

Interesting. How did you come up with the ~45h/week thing? Why not ~40h/week or even ~35h/week?

I've had exactly the opposite experience. What does your comment and mine tell us? Absolutely nothing.

I had to Google what 4Chan means. Fair enough.

In the rest of the world: CV and resume are interchangeable.

Scrum sprints for musicians. Sad news.

We should stop taking FAANG-like companies as examples of everything: - they do not represent the majority of tech companies - the majority of devs out there do not work for them/won't work for them - their techniques/process

Hiring. Companies hire, hire and hire like there's no tomorrow. There's zero incentive in becoming a stable business without keep growing every year. No. Instead companies want to get bigger, to hire more and to add features to a

Hiring for the sake of hiring. I cannot understand why companies think that growing implies hiring more people.

How can you compare a PHP framework like Laravel (that sits on top of a language) with a framework (Next) that sits on top of a library (React) that sits on top of a language (JS)? Next is not like Laravel.

Please share the email address (use a throwaway account) so that everyone can do it as well. Otherwise it's pointless.

Microrobots. Each robot the size of a grain of salt; disposable (and hence, cheap). They'll be able to: clean your teeth (goodbye toothbrush), cut your hair (you'll have exactly the haircut you want), cut your nails, shave your be

Mobile apps are great, the only problem is: app stores. For this only reason, I will never write a mobile app again.

It's impossible to be an expert in everything, but it's very doable to be competent in many areas. I just don't see the problem in being quite decent,for example, at Vue.js and Kafka and Postgres. Let's say you have been

I have worked in the past with AngularJS and Vue. The work I produced was similar in quality to the work produced by pure "front end" engineers. I am a generalist, and I haven't seen yet any "front end" engineer doi

I don't call myself a "full stack" engineer. I call myself a software engineer (or software developer); this pretty much means: I am a problem solver. Do I have to design a relational data model? Sure, there I go. Do I have t

I think I've expressed myself wrongly. I'm not a contractor, just a normal fulltime employee. This normally means (at least in Europe) 8h/day 5 times per week, hence 40h/week. I'm not being payed by the hour.

This must be an American thing. In Europe it's pretty rare to find tech companies that do whiteboard questions and/or leetcode. The usual standard is one meeting with HR and the head of engineering (and/or a senior engineer)

I agree. I can't believe they are spending so much money and effort to preserve code I don't give a damn now and once I pushed to GitHub. And like me, 99% of the devs I know personally.

This is not exactly correct but almost. I Europe expect around 40% percent of your gross salary to be gone in taxes. Health insurance is not 100% free (e.g., you go to the doctor and he prescribes you some pills. You have to pay for those p

That offer (75K) is definitely not the norm for a new grad. It can happen, sure, but I think it's more productive to discuss salaries 90% of the software engineers in this forum can get/expect.
658.
by dakiol 6y ago
A good rule of thumb (although it's difficult to summarize the salaries of all the countries in Europe) is: Juniors up to 30K. Mediors up to 50K. Seniors up to 80K. This is for software engineers.

Your comment is as valid as what you have quoted. Kubernetes can bring lots of value, but not to everybody.

But it does not make the argument less true.
