That doesn’t make a lot of sense though. In my country first year CS students build game of life versions with thousands of not millions of individual entities all going about their business and interacting with each other in some shitty ma

But rent a worker is small scale. It is not signing a multi million euro contract. Consultants are a thing here, and they may be the closest companies get to not knowing what they buy. I mean, I’m not saying that the other way works. All ou

If people are frequently asking the same question then your information and how you deliver it is lacking. You can solve this by making a FAQ, or your can write better information. Having recently moved from Python (where the documentation

Which companies? I’ve never seen anyone willing to do that in decades of contracting. Maybe it’s just different here in Denmark, but people never buy things here without knowing what they buy.

Most project models are sort of useless in the modern office environment. Waterfall is useless because nobody ever follows it. I agree that it’s sort of the “default” mode, but show me a project that didn’t go back and change something from

Do they have these in SF? I thought Estonia was sort of special with these.

We have a long and proud history of big brands suing the little guy over names in Denmark. It never results in what the big brand wants, some have even gone bankrupt on the wake of it. Over all it’s more a capitalism thing though. Companies

Don’t you need some pretty solid source data for you to trust them? I only recently picked up typescript, coming from decades of .Net and later a Python, and the way you can turn things like json results into typed data via interfaces while

I think the first part is true as well, I mean, a lot of people are probably feeling quite alive these past two days.

I’m Danish and not at all interested in the politics of it, but there can be a case for teaching algebra late. We do it in Denmark, because it’s the subject children have the hardest time learning, and having too many of them fail too early

Even with small applications that don’t have fatal consequences, you aren’t testing if you aren’t testing in production. Especially not in a world where it is so easy to control traffic to your application in a way where 95% get on the stab

I’ve worked professionally with .net for decades. At one point we had a few visual studio enterprise licenses. I haven’t used visual studio for C# since 2019 or something like that, because VSC is just flat out more productive for me person

That was sort of my point. I’m not English so maybe it got a little lost in my wording, but decentralised trust doesn’t work, exactly because you need a centralised force to back its integrity up, and if you have that, what use is the decen

I worked in the public sector for decades and we did so many proof of concepts on block chains, exactly because successful consultants and university researchers (the sort of people we trust) tried to sell us various ideas. It never stuck i

I’ve worked with .net for 7 years and the “Microsoft” tag can really give you a false sense of security. I worked in the public sector, so we also took these things rather serious. We’ve had far more security issues with the .net toolset th

I spent 7 years working with C#, I like C# and I think what they’ve done in the past few years is amazing. I’m much more productive in Python. Not as in “I feel” more productive, but as in measurably more productive. Where Python falls shor

I don’t think anyone is afraid of nuclear power, I mean, some people are but no one serious. What anti nuclear movements in my country fear isn’t the technology but rather the people who have to maintain it. I’m not sure that last part can

I’m not sure 7 or 8 figures really matter to a company the size of Facebook. I worked in a medium sized municipality in Denmark, and when your budget is 9 billion Danish KR, well let’s just say that you treat expenses differently in enterpr

The human death toll is no doubt greater from fossils, but it’s sort of like traffic safety isn’t it? Something we just live with. In my part of Europe, anyone of my age or above still remembers Chernobyl and how we had to burn farming prod

I’m not sure people view COP as serious in general. In my anecdotal experience, people sort of stopped thinking the political elite would solve this back in the 90’ies. And back then they managed to do something about the hole in the ozone

I think this is a more complicated issue than most people seem to think it is. Very few countries have knowledge in nuclear technology while they have decades of knowledge in other green technologies. So it’s only natural that there is a se

What I don’t understand about this is how it’s supposed to work. Plug anything into any port on our machines and it’ll either have the key to be recognised as one or our devices or be denied any sort of access. This wasn’t always possible,
