Good question. And the answer is the difference between companies who just want to make a profit (won't pay above market rate and hire anybody) and companies who want to dominate the world (will pay above market but will take only limi

If Google is there, they would. And if not Berlin is one of the few cities on this planet where people actually live in the city center and drive outside for work.

People who work in Tech usually love Google though. They produce usable software, pay well, offer real career opportunities. The only thing Techies don't like about Google is their very american way of doing work. Although the pay migh

Even in Lichtenberg, certainly not trendy at all, rents have increased significantly (although not doubled yet afaik).

This is also Mutti Merkel's proclaimed goal, stated like 10 years ago. She is patient, but she usually achieves what she sets out to do.

Sounds cooler than "We will also create the AWS VMs for you, just give us the credentials", though.

It isn't though. People will make stupid demands, not because they are stupid, but because they don't incorporate previous decisions taken and they don't incorporate how their desired solution affects other users of the whole

"haha, women problems", right? I'm a man who is now 32 years old. I honestly feel the same in quite a few regards. Certainly I don't feel grownup, or old. When people call me the local equivalent of "mister" I&

Or it means people want you to think you are stupid for not knowing something that in reality doesn't exist or doesn't have the credit and success it wants you to believe to has.

It's a little bad for newcomers to define these as one being better than the other. In reality it's a trade-off. And multiplexed/async are not really "I/O types" but ways to handle the two I/O types. In re

You can just host the git repo itself though if you know very specifically what repo(s) you want. A clear advantage of distributed version control is that each person has their own repo. You can give access via ssh or http I think (only tri

Well, let's call it not "feature list" but "specified vision statement" and then it should have that. It should be quite clear from the main README and the main website what distinguishes this project from others. O

Exactly my feeling, and I just tried it once on an AWS instance or similar. It was the only serious program running on the machine and it dragged down all the resources, worse than Jenkins ever could. All that doesn't say gittea is muc

Basic lesson of statistics: If you have one roll of the die statistics don't matter. Seriously, the individual context of your situation weighs much much higher. I would only use advise in situations where I have zero ideas what to do

Really good question! I also find this part quite illogical myself. My current believe (but no evidence whatsoever) is that: a) He doesn't want to move up. The higher you get the more visible lack of skill and ambition becomes as well.

I totally understand where that's coming from. A guy doing the same tasks/processes for 15+ years will get less and less from additional experience. However, he will not do exactly the same thing. For instance a 10+ years guy migh

It's not clear for me, if you confuse the compose/swarm development progress (which is like your ideals) and kubernetes (which afaik always was over-engineered to begin with). Kubernetes has the huge day-1 problem, that it doesn&#

I don't really see why this is a deal. If I decide I want to delete the content I put on Medium I very well want them to delete it everywhere else as well. One could read that as "Medium tries to protect their users content".

Looks to me like you are 1/3 into the project. Why give up now? Lesson 1) If a person didn't do almost exactly what you are doing (and most didn't) their advise is bullshit. And as you already see quite a few people even give

Django was the main reason I started with Python. Really loved it more than Wordpress or Rails. However, Flask is just much simpler to get started. So nowadays, where I mostly have to achieve the most bang for a given set of bucks I usually

Well, at least in Berlin you still have renter cooperatives, which also need to be cost efficient but not as profitable. I think even the city government jumps in to support new building efforts by the cooperatives.

Well, it's not like the rents stay static until death. As the owner you can still find enough reasons to increase the rent for 2.5-3% each year which is above the official inflation rate.

Okay interesting point of view. So you still fail but you fail earlier than the other western competitors and you might fail less. Can't say much against it.
