No street art. No protesting. Social credit. No way to break away from the stigmas assigned you your face. No speeding. No jaywalking. No pissing outside. No way to rebel. I mean, it wouldn’t really stop crime. London has something close to

I work in the public sector where we often pick Azure, but your reasoning for why we do it is wrong. People are professionals, and these decisions are important and expensive enough that they are very rarely made by lower level management.

Coding standards are probably a myth.

What makes you say this? Gut feeling? Or do you have any supportive evidence? We’ve done self-driving as a POC for a decade in Denmark, and it hasn’t really improved much, to the point where we too are considering, that it’s probably never

The thing I really want out of these services is the ability to set a payment cap. It’s probably never going to be an issue, but I have anxiety, and I can’t sleep easily knowing that if I fuck up, if someone sinister abuses my application o

I don’t really like the admin interfaces or CLIs of either AWS or Azure. I’ve had an easier time with Azure than AWS for my personal projects, but maybe that’s just from being used to the Microsoft way. I’m not sure why they are so much har

The m not sure why this was downvoted. I think it’s correct and I think we could save a lot of money by collecting this knowledge. I say this, because I’ve witnessed departments where the managers of two teams in the same building had bough

I agree, but I think that’s on Microsoft. I’m not sure they’ve ever adopted any suggestions from us that weren’t universally wanted. When teams first became available in 365, it was automatically enabled for everyone. Today it’s not, we req

Our setup is mixed, all our own servers are virtual on rented space at a local server rental shop. I’m not a hardware tech, so I’m afraid that’s as technical I can get. So our SQL cluster, and most of our web applications run on our own iro

I work for a Danish municipality with roughly 10,000 employees. I’m not sure if you know, but our public sector has been competing with Estonia at being the most digitised in the world for a decade. We operate an estimated 300-500 different

I live in region midt, I know the Copenhagen region has a lot of exciting languages and techs available, but out here everyone is terrible conservative. I mean, JAVA is popular but there wasn’t a single kotlin job in 2019.

Is it actually always a good idea to keep yourself up-to-date with the hottest tech stacks? We picked up the first angular, because of the “keep up mantra”. That turned out to be a complete waste of resources when the second version release

I tried to get into management because I was afraid of ageism and no-career-path in development, but I quickly learned that I actually love building things. So now I’m just sticking to being a developer and I’ll see where that goes. It does

Most setups and most hardware isn’t efficient enough for language to really matter. So the solution to carbon footprint isn’t to stop using python, it’s to stop burning coal.

Why is the WikiLeaks foundation responsible for the content posted on their platform, when Google and Facebook aren’t? I haven’t really been following this a whole lot, but as I understand it, the US wants him extradited because his platfor

Weird that no Scandinavian brands made it on this list, do Americans not buy those? Stuff like the North Face is genuinely considered a pretty poor quality brand here in Denmark. Typically North American brands lose these types of tests by

I wouldn’t worry about the popular hipster stacks, but rather shoot for something productive and preferably slow moving. There is a reason things like Django or Ruby on Rails help people actually get things out the door. They come with a lo

I don’t like arena games, but they have been popular for a while. From what you can’t avoid picking up from general gaming media, it’s a genre that has been plagued by companies who offered horrible support and user experienced. It seems li

Can you even buy a smartphone, or even a computer without buying things from China in 2019? Especially if you’re not American.

According to our national health institute vaping doesn’t actually help people quit smoking, and this is an area we take rather serious in Denmark because we genuinely want people to smoking all together. There is no evidence to show that i

It’s not libertarian to value corporate rights above those of the individual citizen. Hell, when companies become more powerful than actual governments, the least libertarian thing you could possible do, is to give their kingdoms free reign

There hasn’t been a single Rust job posting in the entire region of Denmark where I live in 2019, so it’s probably fair to say that almost no one uses it. The progress is still cool though.

You don’t need your Raspberry PI to run your bank app, handle your payments or your bus-tickets. I’m not sure how I’d even purchase a non digital ticket for quite a few things in Denmark. Don’t get me wrong, I really hope something like Pin

Amazon and Microsoft are much better at support though. I doubt you’ll see a lot of Google cloud in the European public sector where I work for instance. Google simply doesn’t know how to work with us or give us the reassurances we need to

Privacy isn’t a huge concern in a free society, which is likely why none of us really care. But imagine having those systems in a country where having a specific opinion, or sexuality could result in a death penalty. You wouldn’t want to be

It’s because I use reddit, their use of “Karen” seem appropriate for the use of “Jytte” in this context. Maybe “Debbie” is as well.

We have a scientist in Denmark called Morten Münster who wrote a book called “Jytte fra marketing er desværre gået for i dag” (Karen from marketing has unfortunately left for the day), in which he talks a lot about the necessity of clear an
