In a weird way it feels like we are more prepared for this in countries like Sweden where your social security number, tax returns, income, credit history, address, spouse, children, company board positions, pet ownership, car ownership and

I agree that the database (and things like uploaded images) can be a challenge. For WordPress we usually sync down from production, to staging, to testing, to local (while filtering out PII). For other projects is't usually easier usin

At the agency where I work we have about 40-50 somewhat active projects at any time. Any given week I work with maybe 3 to 10 of them. It saves so much time to just pull down the repo, run "docker-compose up" and have everything r

You don't even have to use Lamda@Edge, you can just forward them to your origin and use them there. A client used an IP to country service until we realized that we already had the information they needed in the Cloudfront headers.

Centralised "right to disconnect" regulation is what will protect workers from sweatshops? I'm not saying there should be no labour regulations in EU, just that there is a lot of detailed regulation that is more appropriate t

How does this affect freedom of movement of workers? Could we not have freedom of movement with slightly different laws in different countries? Does every little thing relating to the labour market need to be regulated centrally? It's

One weird thing here in Sweden, is that you can take sick leave from your vacation. So if you get the flu during your vacation you can call in sick and not use your vacation days while you are sick. I have never heard of anyone doing this t

As a European I hate these types of EU initiatives. Why not let member states decide on this themselves? When Sweden voted to join the EU there was a lot of talk about the subsidiary principle[0], but it seems almost completely forgotten n

You should probably be looking at the core Laravel framework repository, not the "new project"-boilerplate. https://github.com/laravel/framework/graphs/contributors To me it seems like the ecosystem

But compared to other types of clothes I find that they last a long time. I buy a new pair every year from Nudie Jeans for $140 and they last around four years (with the included free repairs). And when they are worn out you get 20% discoun

The big adoption driver in Sweden is the Amex SAS Eurobonus card which lets you collect air miles with the card. It's one of the few cards in Sweden that lets you "game" a points system slightly.

I think it differs a great deal between countries in the EU. I'm Swedish and I have an Amex card and most of my friends and colleagues use Amex as well. I use it for about 85% of my spending each month. The only places in Stockholm tha

I think there are a few issues: 1. Site builders are still hard to use for most marketing staff, if the site should look professional and you need a few small integrations. 2. They don't mind paying for a solution where someone else do

I feel like all agencies should stay away from JavaScript frameworks unless they are willing to be open with their clients on how much time will go into maintaining the project. My agency regularly take over older JavaScript projects - buil

Trail Router is great! Tested it out for a few cities I know like Stockholm, Gothenburg, Las Palmas and Hanoi and it's really good. The only thing I noticed is that it seems to prefer going next to water over anything else and have a s

> Every week that goes by Sweden imposes more restrictions. Soon they will have as many restrictions as the rest of Europe. That's not true. Can you name any new restrictions imposed the last few weeks?

I would say that PHP is pretty similar to Ruby and Python. It has a messier history and some inconsistent syntax that people like to complain about. On the other hand it has a huge community, a wide selection of web frameworks, a big set of

Well, I'm not arguing for this system. I suggested using corporate credit cards instead since there are already security mechanisms in place to handle those. But it obviously require some form of trust in the entity you are interacting

Every time I sign up for a service using our company card, with our company address and company email I feel like I'm pretty open about who the buyer is. Wouldn't a some kind of certified bank card be an even better proof of corpo

I was not saying that. I was just disagreeing with the statement that Sweden is over its intensive care capacity. On the other hand, as a Swede I feel that we ARE playing it pretty safe. Some of the measures other countries are taking seems

From what I read 13 less serious cases were placed in a field hospital at Sahlgrenska as a "trial run" to test the facilities, but since there is available room at in the actual hospital (and people complained) this has now stoppe

I've been waiting for something like this. But now that it's here it seems a bit complicated to automate the setup if you have lots of accounts. I'll probably just go with an API Gateway proxy for the SNS webhooks in one acco

I think lots of startups are prone to something similar to the "second version" problem. They bring in a really good senior developer as a CTO. This person finally has the chance to set their mark and for once build the perfect se

Well, you have just built a custom theme to support the data from Netlify. I guess you could just as well have built a custom theme for Wordpress to avoid being stuck with an unsupported theme.
