In the contracting world, I get one of these people every year or so. They jump onto projects often, are discovered, given warnings and improvement plans, and usually find another project before they're actually fired. Their big asset

Agreed. For non development use, an Air was fine and I'd actually recommend them at $900 (often on sale at BestBuy or Ebay). I just bought a brand new Dell Latitude Ultrabook with i7 and SSD for $600 from the outlet store. I added ram

None of the things you're looking for are going to help your team much unless they already have a good understanding of relational DB theory and some experience. That being said, I do like DataGrip by JetBrains for general SQL usage. V

That's because you, as a 37 year old healthy individual, are subsidizing your father's healthcare. That was one of the main goals of Obamacare: push up and force premiums on younger people to help pay for the increasing costs of t

I think most decent engineers in even small markets in the South and Midwest US could expect $100k or so by 30 years of age. In contrast, I see salaries in even expensive cities like Amsterdam, Madrid, Munich at far less. When you add in t

No it's not. Consent is a synonym of permit (permission). I consent to the groping of my ball sack at the airport because those are the rules, but I'd prefer they didn't do it.

Lombok is a bad idea, IMO. Getters and Setters are verbose, but usually model classes are contained in a single class anyway, and can be generated automatically with any IDE. I can glance at a typical bean and ignore the code bloat without

I've learned mostly the opposite. Those that become indispensable rarely get promoted because moving them would create a huge gap in a necessary role. At best, these engineers are rewarded with 'pseudo promotions' like team

True. I did a year of sys administration, and when I got back I realized I had missed that year's JS frameworks du jure. Panicked, I began learning everything I could about Bower, Grunt, Angular JS 1, and Mongo. I lucked out, though,
