100% agree with you. As a freelancer I usually have to decide technology stack and infrastructure and I always go with the cheapest option for my client with the argument that one day he could just scale it up even by rewriting it. This mak

I also read somewhere about book stores being smashed, because of selling books against Erdogan. Can't find the source, because I'm on my phone.

If that has the iTerm speed it will be my new terminal app. It looks awesome! Can't wait to see the ecosystem around it.

I think software is going to the direction of emulation anyway. At this point you have platforms like Electron, which run in a browser environment. Java software which runs inside JVM. Now there's even linux sub-system inside windows,

I was a Windows user for a long time. 5 years ago I switched to OS X, because I think it's closer to the deployment environment I use as a dev. However what OS X did ( when they killed the old one - MacOS 9 and rewrote the whole thing

I find it more like a mindset than an actual excuse. E.g. I want to buy a Tesla and I don't have the money. I say to myself : "Now it's not the time." instead of "Let's save some money!". If you have milli

My father always says : "saving money is the beginning of being poor". So I always try to save money by thinking how can I make more. These days money = time is a strong equation, so just don't loose your time and use it in a

In my freelancing career I usually choose the language with the following Q&A to my colleagues ( myself, if it's a side project ). 1. Are there business requirements for the language ( already written project, specs, etc. ) ? 2. Wh

I've never used AngularJS, so I would stick my comment to ReactJS. I would like to point that with ReactJS you have a suggested way of implementing the data-part of your application by using Flux-like architecture ( Redux, Fluxible, Al

Don't do it. The biggest benefits employers give to you such as : steady income, predictable working conditions, career opportunities are basically a marketing trick. I had an employee contract after 6-7 years freelancing which I termi

My reasoning is that CSS is not a language, it's just a configuration file. It doesn't have a console.log, but it has `background: red`. JS as a language and as such ( especially it's callback / event-driven nature ) mak

CSS ( properly written ) is easier to debug than JS.

I'm still a huge fan of "If you can do something with CSS, avoid JS", but these days, working with React, everything is JS. Although IMHO it makes logical sense to put the logic for the modal windows in the JS, not the CSS. A

Great to hear that, because I was ( still am ) skeptical about any government legislation these days.

Yep. Sadly the question is boiled down to "In or out of EU" instead of "How to make EU better". IMHO, Europeans need to act together on a personal level. If people forget about "French", "German", &qu

Putting it that way it means that Berlin is a cheap city to rent an apartment. You are totally right about that. What is more interesting is that around EU prices of cars / consumer electronics, etc is relatively the same [1]. Not to m

As a Bulgarian living in Germany, I would say that this vote is a complicated thing. On one side politicians were not able to explain the benefits of the EU to the UK people and on the other hand the ratio remain / leave is so close th
