I think you should learn the foundations of JS before you use a JS library, but I see no value in teaching people JQuery before you teach them react.

To what end? Would you also teach someone binary, assembly and C before you taught them JAVA? I see your approach in a lot of fresh graduates. They’ve learned things from the ground up, which means a good chunk of what they’ve learned is us

Sftp servers are still the backbone in a lot of datatransfers. Apparently APIs are really hard for most companies.

Having started with vue, and now playing with react, I’ve found myself often thinking “this is so much simpler”. But maybe I just sucked at vue.

I’ve always loved django, and graphene isn’t half bad for GraphQl in python, but it’s getting harder and harder to deny how useful JavaScript is becoming compared to python. An Apollo/yoga graphql setup with node and prismsa is just re

Those few topics aren’t close to being 50% of the mechanical aspects of programming. What are you even on about? Furthermore they are all easily explainable concepts that any CS student will be able to grasp once they reach their first prog

Well, after the first programming lesson, they are no longer magic. In python, they are never demystified.

Java has some advantages over python in a teaching environment. Writing a basic hello world function you’ll learn about types, return values, references, imports and access modifiers, all in three lines of code. Java is also excellent for b

It's not the ML itself, it's the ability to quickly store large amounts of data and troll through them in a few hours and then shut everything down and never use it again. One example is the case files I told you about. It's

If the data is completely anonymous it’s not really breaking the GDPR. If it’s not voluntary they are in a range of other problems though.

The data is kept in Europe, Microsoft is especially accommodating in that regard, but with both AWS and Azure there are special plans that open up when your sector spend billions. So not only is the data kept in Europe, it’s also kept on in

It could be, but it’s more expensive. We killed the local datacenter a decade ago when we started renting iron to house our own cloud. The majority of our systems still operate on VMs in that setup, but even that is more expensive than goin

The European public sector is moving into the cloud and we’re picking either Amazon or Azure. Azure is really far ahead on security compliance with EU regulation, perhaps mostly on the image side of things though. But that’s important too,

Oh, it was just Ruby on Rails, well, the more you know. My bad.

I’d say the same thing for enterprise companies though. It’s not like they bank that money. They use it on project management, sales management, key account management, four layers of testing setup that still lets bugs slip into production,

Danish CS degrees are in high regard, and we’re all fairly good at English. There are a lot of Danes in Silicon Valley, I mean, C++, C# and Ruby were made by Danes, so it’s not like Murica isn’t open for us. You can make a lot of money in I

I think poor education, stagnation of living standards and rising inequality is a lot worse in that area than Facebook. Granted, I think angrymob-media would be a much more fitting description than social-media, but it’s not like humanity w

I get that we don’t like Facebook, but isn’t this a bit much? Are they worse than google or amazon? What about people who work for Coca-Cola? What about the people who make mobile games and loot boxes for Blizzard? Where is it ethical to wo

That’s kind of my point though, if Amazon took over Ubuntu, then I wouldn’t mind using it for production. IBM is literally the only major software with services company we have reservations about, and it’s only because they’ve been consiste

The fact that x-distro might be bought, is part of the reason Linux has little traction in enterprise. Look at redhat, we have a terrible relationship with IBM in the European public sector, and now that they’ve bought Redhat, we’re already

I think it goes for any topic. I’ll use food as an example. I’ve been on a lot of food blogs, I end there from DuckDuckGo or google, mostly google. I only remember a handful of them, one in particular that is now a regular bookmark of mine

Companies are important to cities, and that means they get privileges. Maybe that’s not fair, but a company with a few thousand employees will pay for quite a few things through income taxes. All those employees will also bolster the commun

That’s festival payment done wrong, but cashless can be really great at festivals. In Denmark we have a festival called Skanderborg festival, and they build both your ticket and your cashless payment into the festival bracelet. You use the

Look at it from a bigger perspective. We have a digital mail box for every citizen in my country. It’s safe and works very well, but people still have the option to opt out. Opting out was meant for people who aren’t capable of accessing a

Every government has a lot of IT failures, but the perception that they are worse than other enterprise is mostly due to the failures being on record. There was a study in the 00s that looked at major IT system implementations, and I can’t
