I found working with Operation Flashpoint/VBS2/Arma 2 that the code base being so large and so many edge case conditions that it will never re-written. One example from the VBS2/Armed Assault 1/2 they replaced the way ar

You only need a some major players and big names to get behind rust and I would bet it would surpass C/C++ code-base within a couple of years. It wouldn't replace major frameworks or libraries written in C/C++ but I it wouldn

I cannot speak for a employers, but I would say they've found a better person for the position. Either it be by age, sex, religion, health, ect... They're in the Business to make money and they've chosen somebody who is young

Businesses have three major phases they go through. They're adolescence, teenager, and maturity. Adolescence is the phase where the business is formed, and there isn't any formal procedural manual written or processes within the b

Really sit down and ask yourself do you really want to be in your 40's around 20 year old's who have completely different ethical, moral, and work ethic than you do? Personally I would rather find/work for a business that hav

You can go to their accounting department and tell them you're unable to pay the full amount of the bill due to hard-ship. They will in turn probably reduce the bill down to $300 dollars. Either that or you walk out the front door and

I would have to disagree with you. Software [Engineering] is a science you just treat it like a craft.

The good thing about fixed size memory ranges is it decreases debugging time. It also allows deterministic behaviour for your modules.

Take this with a grain of salt. If you can prove that you project can work without the GPL V2/V3 code being present (eg... the GPL code isn't a major contributing factor in the working of your program) then it stands that under co

I will agree with your approach. With any large system or government database schema adding another table and then adding a relation to the necessary reports is 100x better than changing the parent table. I've seen too often jobs being

Our current manager wants to transition over to NoSQL, as he doesn't see any value having to constantly update JPA Repositories and dependencies when a column is added or removed from the database table. I recommended that JPA Reposito

For me personally, relational data model didn't really make much sense until I studied relational algebra. After over-night my supervisor was amazed and wanted to know why my quires went from shit to amazing in their eyes.

By any chance did these DBA's be the Linux server administrators at all? My own personal experience is DBA's/Linux server administrators have authority issues. I had one situation where I had a encrypted file on one of the Li

Most of the time when business logic is put into triggers it turn into a disaster. Even Oracle recommends only putting simple logic within triggers and for the most part should only be used for auditing purposes. For example too many time

Just remember there no point earning the mega $$$$ when you're going to put a bullet in a gun and shot yourself in the head because of the stress. Look after yourself first.

Just as a side note, we've never needed to upgrade the ipad air 2 nor any prior tablet from apple. We're of horror stories of devices slowing down or degrading with each iteration of ios so we've been lucky in not keeping the

I agree with your view point. Although why are you in the CS class? If you're only interested in just getting the job done the fastest? From a practicality stand point of view using bash, batch files, nodejs, python is going to be fast
