From my experience, large codebase refactorings are almost never a priority until the deadline is just right there. 10 years for many companies mean the last 6 months, when everyone else has already done a lot of work on the same problems a

Unfortunately that's true. In general, that's something that should be known in advance when someone chooses a cloud provider. As I mentioned, there is no one-site-fits-all solution. :/ Vendor lock-in is a serious issue for s

What's your level of experience with ops/networking etc.? Because it all boils down to that. If you need a simpler service, maybe you could use digital ocean etc...

Indeed! That's exactly the point. AWS or other cloud providers are hard to use because they are about managing a data center - that you can replicate across different regions (so, multiple data centers). That's it. People confuse

If you hate AWS so much, wait until you use Azure. Worst support ever. UI not in sync with the az-cli, documentation super chaotic, lots of basic features from AWS not yet supported in Azure. From my experience, AWS has up-to-date documen

I wasn't aware of the fact that react native is fragile - it seems I did the right choice by learning Flutter. I hope it evolves even better, and also the criticism to Dart for me is so far quite irrelevant, as there are already tons o

Could you describe your experience more in details? What exactly didn't work out? I would like to know to understand whether it makes sense for me to invest my time in Flutter/Dart instead of a more mature solution like React Nati

wow! I didn't know that. I am currently learning Flutter, because I think it has a strong potential to unify mobile and desktop development, however, I didn't know that React Native was "so bad".

If you ask me? There is no way without proper preparation. It’s a wide area and it requires hundreds of policemen. So from this point of view, this is the usual “let’s put tape over the holes, and let’s hope the water doesn’t leak”. It’s li

Did you ever speak to policemen not as a citizen but as a friend? Maybe you would understand that’s a shitty job (because it has to deal mostly with shitty situations) always frowned upon and not even well paid. Why does anyone have to risk

Power != law. This policeman risks his job now. If it was in another country, I would laugh it off. Here in Germany this will become a national case.

German police officers have very limited power to do anything at all. What you mentioned is one sort of loophole they use to be able to “catch” someone: you touched me! Oh, regarding the policemen trying to hold your arms. Never seen that a
