Its about fragmentation, Europe is fragmented by countries (governments), language, culture and law. US and China, not so much, a company has an immediate larger reach, and has less scaling issues than it would in Europe. Consider also th

Maybe, I'm not sure if it actually is a gain, massive forest fires and trees that are pulped in 9 years, no idea if this benefits the climate or not when all factored in?

Reforesting with what? In Portugal this has mostly been with Eucalyptus and Pine (forget the variety, but less native and more flammable). Creating highly flammable non native monocultures that support very little wildlife. The reason for t

It is really quite simple to assess if someone is 'in a rut', even more so when they have more experience, as it becomes more obvious. Even with mid-career developers I check for this. So "My only concern hiring older engine

Not sure what the point of this discussion is, there have been BSc in AI at various universities for years (at least 20), whats the debate?

Sounds excessive and beyond the norms of what most people would encounter in not having a mono repo i.e. the opposite extreme.

No one knows if it is actually a bad thing to leave yet, give it 50 years. For some reason people read a couple of articles and become experts on really complicated, multi faceted, non deterministic systems and decide to expound their opini

Well no not really, as that completely lacks the semantic part. There certainly does seem to be an as yet untapped intersection between some of what GraphQL solves, with what JSON-LD and SPARQL provides where a greater than the sum of their

A good question! In a simple analogy its a bit like where neural networks were not very long ago, a nice idea with potential but wasn't quite there, many said it was a dead end. Some technology simply takes longer to mature, or is dep

I agree, when I can see the addresses match it would do my head in if the compiler says false, its unexpected, its surprising. If i write bad code, fine I'm used to that and I can debug it, if there are these new 'gotchas' t

ANN are great for a certain domain of problems, and a domain we have not been able to satisfactorily solve previously, which will indeed unlock lots of innovation. However that doesn't diminish 'regular' software engineering,

You'll earn most in the direction of demand. Some have spoken here about shortage of supply, Cobol etc, which might be true, but do you really want to upskill in an area that by its nature is diminishing? In demand at present is not an

Yes, not the first time for this style from Mozilla regarding copyright. Makes it hard to swallow their opinion as credible, when so obviously biased and non factual.

People are willing to speculate, and until this pops some people will make money, some will get seriously burned. The credibility of the technology or adoption of it by users isn't really important at present.

I'm not surprised, even some basic analysis on the ICOs such as Civic raise a lot of alarm bells. Will be very interested to see in the next couple of years how many of these projects still exist.
