I think part of the issue is how we learn differently. For some students the lecture is important, for others it’s a time where your mind wanders and then you’re sort of “left behind” because you didn’t pay attention. So it’s likely always

A lot of you are taking the laws too literal. I guess it’s down to the cultural differences between the EU and the US. We have a lot of privacy laws in place regarding photography and other things in Europe (I guess it should be the full le

The only area of development where ORMs haven’t been the cause for at least some trouble in my career has been with relatively small and completely decoupled services. Even here I’ve had to replace countless ORMs with more efficient approac

I think automated tests are the one area that LLMs will truly improve productivity (and overall code quality). It’ll likely also lead to a lot of tests that actually tests nothing, but as a whole, it’ll hopefully be capable of both generati

You always have to worry about your model changes if you run at any sort of scale. Some ORMs will get it right most of the time, but the few times they don’t will really bite you in the ass down the line. Especially with the more “magical”

I wonder if it would really come down to AI if you did the user research, maybe focused on the “onboarding” process. I remember a time back when you would get a Quora result on a search query and you could click on it be find a few answers

One of the reasons my city decided to go with LoRawan is exactly because it’s less complicated from the legal side of things. It’s much more complicated to work with, however, and because of Danish telecom laws any such tech comes with ridi

Oh I’m not a big fan of it either. Especially because I’ve never really seen a lot of the “fake work” have much value. Usually enterprise architecture or whatever you want to call it ends up being an insane amount of aged documentation that

You have a point in that bureaucracy can needlessly get in the way of meaningful change. It frankly always will to some degree. That being said, part of the way you make sure it gets the least amount of in the way is to standardise it, and

I’m not sure why you’re trying to make it seem like Microsoft isn’t rewriting the core of their 365 business products from C# to Rust, but you do you I guess. As far as I’m aware I was never traumatised by OData. It’s true that I may have r

Hashicorp does so much more than terraform, but I don’t think OpenTofu is better than terraform. I’m not sure that was ever really an interesting issue, however, I think the main competition to terraform was/is things like Bicep. I kno

It may sound weird, but there is not a link between lending from libraries and book sales. Some children’s books sell well, but if you go to the sections of them in book stores you’ll rarely find more than a handful of Danish authors repres

I can. Book publishers are terrible and they always have been. At least that is the case here in Denmark. They game our library system, so that books they know won’t sell well but will be lent a lot at the libraries, like a lot of children

I don’t mind the {}s too much, maybe the primary reason I dislike them is actually more to do with the fact that I’m Danish and I’ll need to press option+shift+7 to make a { on my Mac… or similarly annoying combinations depending on the mac

I think you’re mistaking C-style syntax for what modern C languages have adopted and become. How many C style context even really exist today? The block separation by single characters is ok. Using (), [] and {} to separate things makes thi

While what you say is sort of true, developers are paid better than what you made it sound like for me. The difference is perhaps that professions like truck drivers and a lot of tradeskills are compensated very well because there is a gene
