It turns out that programmers are artisans and dreamers of new methods previously thought impossible. It is not possible to manage them in the same way as worker bees on a factory line. Caveat being, if you have a programmer who is clearly

Hello, Sorry to hear you are having a hard time. I suggest you find work as a contractor in backend work just to stabilize yourself financially. Try not to take it too seriously, consult with your doctors on how to manage your pain and depr

It's almost as if tourists and workers are the lifeblood of a pub, and when you physically bar (hehe) those people from entering because of a peculiar collection of organic material going around, it is the pub that is squeezed to death

Never trust corporations (or anyone for that matter), even the most well intentioned of ones, to always make rational decisions, even when they hire rational people and write down rational policies.

Interesting. This is why in my current job I developed our business logic to be completely self contained and agnostic to the outside world. There's a lot of needless translation that happens (DynamoDBClient -> MyCorpDynamoDbClient)

I mean, I enjoy using Apple products, but they quite literally paid out a very large lawsuit which found them culpable for planned obsolescence with iPhone 5 batteries and etc.

I am tormented by the fact that at almost every company, there is so much amazing work that could be done, but everyone sits around blocking it or being lazy.

If a veterinarian or anyone else has harmed or committed malpractice against your animal, you have the right to present evidence to the police and pursue criminal charges against them. Very curious that despite all of the licensing and regu
