There are two very important ideas in this article, which I fully agree with: QA are not the only people responsible for quality - entire team is. QA act as experts and drivers of quality management process, but they should not and are not

I fully agree with you, it doesn’t. However I wasn’t saying that, so I have to conclude that you are speaking to someone else here, making up arguments from an imaginary opponent, and I’m not needed here. Good luck.

This conversation is not about „employees thinking/not thinking about shareholders“. You are cherry-picking that topic and taking it out of context, for what reason exactly? I have explained already a few times why and what context mat

This sounds like AI-written comment, at least in the first part. What I do not get is why are you dismissing the argument about number of visits. 3D printed braces are still braces. They require manual adjustment for each treatment stage. A

The “people who are critical of you” are very broad category that includes both toxic behavior and constructive disagreement. The former must not be tolerated, the latter can be encouraged as long as it’s not a blocker. In this case it is c

LightForce still requires a lot of visits to the doctor. Nice source of revenue for orthos. Aligners may become more accessible to patients, because that tech is more scalable by design.

It does not. If you need to parse a number, you use standard library and you will be fine. The described case with huge impact on hot path is the demonstration why using brains is important. The developer that will get into this mess is the

TBH, I do not see how Java as a language steers anyone to use one those shotguns. E.g. the knowledge about algorithmic complexity is foundational, the StringBuilder is junior-level basic knowledge.

The answer is simple: model optimized for storage and model designed for processing are two different things. The languages used to describe and query them have to be different.

It‘s easier to evolve library code. If Java would ever infer type of constants from initializer (makes more sense than a new keyword), it could look nice and powerful: private final LOG = lazy(logger(MyThing.class));

With SSR/HTMX/HATEOAS the amount of code executed on client side is relatively minor and does not justify the unstable JS/TS tooling and frameworks, and the security nightmare which is NPM-based supply chain.

Most of backend development on Java is procedural with OO syntax and ability to replace something in the chain of calls with stub in tests. Spring beans are usually stateless singletons containing a few references.

Spring Boot isn‘t bad. It‘s opinionated about configurations and dependencies. Its main advantage is that you can start shipping production-quality code very quickly, focusing on business problems rather than anything else. Vibe coding on i
