   I know where you are coming from. I migrated from a European country with a very robust public safety net (14 months parental leave, long term disability, etc) to the US where similar protections largely don't exist. I don't think

   Sorry to break it to you, but a shortage of software engineers is what brought all these perks in the first place, not unions.

   This reinforces my belief that everything in Australia is out to kill you at first opportunity.

   Even more so - lots of content on YouTube wouldn't exist without the economic incentives to create it in the first place.

   You want a polished product and something that can run all sorts of different models. I don't know that both are possible at the same time.

    I think Uber chose a better approach for their Go logging library called Zap [1] logger.Info("failed to fetch URL", // Structured context as strongly typed Field values. zap.String("url", url)

    You can't beat physics. You'll need some sort of line-of-sight over those 5 miles or at least some path that allows signals to be reflected of something. Unless you venture into frequency ranges and transmit power levels where yo

    From Wikipedia[1]: Together, LoRa and LoRaWAN define a Low Power, Wide Area (LPWA) networking protocol designed to wirelessly connect battery operated devices to the internet in regional, national or global networks, and targets key Interne

    While deterministic execution for concurrent/distributed systems is great, there's also value in fuzzing the timing and order of asynchronous events to reveal race condition bugs in testing.

    It solves a problem that OP doesn't have. He's fine with inefficiencies and third parties, he wants great customer support if there are problems.

    iojs comes to mind. This is the beauty of open source in action. Long living forks and fragmentation sucks, but now HashiCorp has to react to this and provide compelling benefits if they don't want to loose the whole project alltogethe

    There is nothing inherently asynchronous about coroutines. You can use them to model concurrency or even parallelism, but that's only a subset of their use cases.

    Of course, but the major difference is that if I don't like the maintainers, I can create a fork, build a community around it and happily run it in production. Imagine where nodejs would be right now if they had been BSL licensed in th

    You fall into the trap of confusing necessary and sufficient. Switching to solar is necessary, but it is by no means sufficient to become carbon neutral. Other things have to happen, but that doesn't mean that we should stop rolling ou

    There are also earthquakes, during which I'd rather have shingles than concrete tiles above me.

    The US is a very homogeneous country. I live in a very liberal part of it. There are probably places with similar problems although I can't name any. Can you?

    I was literally pointing out another aspect on top of what GP said of that region and ended with saying that the city is "super nice". I love visiting and still have many friends there.

    Having lived there for a decade, I must point out that you are painting a very one sided picture of the region. It's also a hot spot for Germany's populist right. I've witnessed visiting Indian colleagues of mine being threat

    Camping inside the valley is very hard to find too. My personal reason is that I'll be hiking the John Muir Trail for 3 weeks - camping in the wilderness for 20 nights - on Monday and want to have one last night of relative comforts :)
