I believe it's the past. Professional IT culture in Russia is in many ways retrograde compared to Western countries, especially the part that concerns mentorship, education and professional ethics. It's changing, but slowly.

I run IntelliJ and WebStorm on i7 iMac 4k with additional 4k monitor and have no issues. I think for me key is RAM size, I set the heap size to 4GB because I work with big projects and it helps a lot.

Article 13 looks like a really nice foundation for censorship. It’s interesting for me to see how EU socialistic tendencies correlate with things like “right to be forgotten”, “article 13” and other initiatives. It’s as if party nomenclatur

Isn't blaming their parents' character flaws for the adult children's character flaws just a way to avoid responsibility by those adult children? If a grown up child thinks parent should've fixed their flaw before it aff

I think a lot of what this person describes about their thinking process and life patterns is actually going on in everyone's brain, but with less awareness of it. The irony is, I guess, that the narcissist part is only the part that a

This looks like it could easily be a part of the retaliation for the arrest of the Huawei executive last week. Timing is pretty revealing and I have no doubt that Chinese courts, similar to Soviet courts, are completely subservient to the e

I’ve been thinking about this a lot and came to a conclusion that because of the fact that in communist/socialist society of Soviet Union money couldn’t buy you things you wanted, government really struggled to motivate people. That’s

What's up with the critical comments in here? How many of the judgemental and jaded posters here donated anything close to this to a charitable cause? Good deeds must be applauded, not shamed for not being better. Especially if the def

To me it's like code optimization. You may spend a lot of time optimizing the code responsible for 1% of run time, or you may spend that same time optimizing the code that takes 60% of the total run time. That said, I'm not saying

As a Russian, living in America, I would suggest not to take any clues about social behavior from Russians. It's all shades of dysfunctional from the bottom to the very top.
