That depends on if you respond with a comment that indicates it's not likely to be merged. Then it is understandable, otherwise it is just rude and confusing.

Im not a Jenkins fan. But at my last client I did appreciate that all our jobs where under source control and jenkins could be reprovisioned at any time from source control by using: https://github.com/hmrc/jenkins-job-

True, but I never undervalue the conversations that happen in the pub after work. (NDAs after all don't apply if people hold a pint or so it seems.) There just is no need to hang around for long nor do it every night. But it is benefic

This was done in Norway some years ago. With mixed success. The government departments lost a most of their key people whom had no interest to uproot their kids and their own future career from the Oslo area. Especially as some department m

I did not realise this was a tech blog by kickstarter themselves. I kept looking for where do I back this project. I thought maybe this was a new "back a howto or integration example" feature... Its early, my brain is not yet awak

Agree. Pairing up during the onsite follow up interview whilst you describe and extend your sample app is essential part of my recruitment preferences. That is how I expect people to work once they are hired so I expect candidates to be com

LOL. With that amount of users and exposure, they would need a huge legal team to handle all the complaints from users, companies and governments. And an even larger customer service team. So a tiny product team, with legal and CS departmen

No, and yes. I, and my last few places I worked all use sequence diagrams, especially when dealing with a new feature with a microservices based architecture (private and gov clients). But very basic usage. I do spend a lot of time tinkerin

Age 9 or 10 and moving to 11 a side on full size goals, shooting high was always a goal :) No need for even that slight kick off 2 curve. That was 30 years ago and they sensibly delay the move to those sized pitches and goals these days.

Sensible Soccer / Kick Off 2 is still a winning style. One touch passing and kick it in front of you and run like mad and shoot as soon as you can. Works in real life as well.

That may also be due to the egalitarian nature of Norway, the gap between the lowest and highest paid jobs are not that large. If you remove the statistical anomalies. So any job will allow you to live a similar life as your neighbors whom

Yup GDS is not the British Government. And do not represent all of gov.uk. True they are responsible for the main chunks of the new gov.uk. But far from all of it. I should know, as Im involved with the development of a non-GDS part of gov.

The $7 is comparable to one app per DO or AWS micro/nano server. So Heroku wins on convenience. If you have say 10 apps then Heroku costs 10*$7, but you might still only have used 1-3 servers depending on memory use of apps etc so then

I understand what you mean but that is generalising too much what people use GCE, public clouds, self hosted servers for, and especially going forward. It is not all convenience applications, game backends etc. What people these days use AW

First, all remote developers must first work on site for a few weeks/months. That way people know what they mean between the lines and vice versa, and what their personality is like etc. So communication becomes much more fluid once re
