Did YouTube switch to Polymer yet? I think only the new design ( https://www.youtube.com/new ) uses it, and it's not yet switched on by default?

He implied that https://webcomponents.org/ is part of Polymer, but it is not.

I've used Polymer in three production applications and they were successes.

That's not correct, the Web Component catalog is completely separate from Polymer. Polymer is a library to make it easier to implement web components. You can use Polymer without using any of the community's components.

Jenkins 2.x for building the images (we just execute docker build and push in a Jenkinsfile), then we use Kontena for orchestration (e.g. the Kontena agent pulls the image from the docker registry). For local development we use docker-compo

" I see the future as running a docker file on your laptop, running it through a ci system, then pushing it to a container service. Docker is the clear standard." Where I work this has been the standard for over a year now.

So what is a good replacement for docker?

Nothing, and I do. It's just odd when I see tofu recommended as a "fake meat".

I recommend eating tofu as tofu, not as a fake meat. It's delicious if you know how to prepare it.

You merely present an opinion without an argument. You need to actually argue why trains are better than "mini metros for cars". You might be correct, but just stating your opinion is not constructive.

"Nobody cares about your code" That's a peculiar claim about people who hire employees to create code. "It’s not the code that counts, it’s the product" So is everyone only hiring programmers who write code which ca

Your comment is silly. Accusing someone of being a "nutcase" is not constructive, nor is a comment about becoming a Borg. Yes, at the moment it's not plausible to upgrade one's arm. In the future it will become plausible

3.8k EUR / month is low, since taxes and prices are high in Finland. The true cost to the employer is almost always higher than what is paid to the employee. "I don't really understand what you're complaining about.&quot

I don't think it's worthwhile.. the union governs over 42 000 employees, they will hardly take my own preferences into account.

Yes. There is of course still a negotiation of benefits on top of the standard contract, I'm not paid minimum wage. If I could remove some benefits I don't need from my own, personal contract this would give me leverage to get som

One non-American anecdote: Finnish software engineers are "heavily" unionized. However, the minimum wages the union has negotiated are really low, $52643 per year for the most senior roles (less senior roles have even lower minimu

Usually that only disallows reassignment of function arguments. For example, eslint's no-param-reassign rule by default allows modifying the properties of the function argument. However, the "props" parameter for this rule ca

Why is property on the blockchain nonsensical?

I don't understand what "value" means here. There is a large number of "jobs", maybe even majority of jobs, which without a modern society would not function. Would you then calculate the value of these jobs as the

In theory the company can instead hire trained employees whose training is paid by the other companies, and not invest anything to train their own workforce. And that ultimately leads to no company investing into training, other than the ba

You can "brute force" scale pretty much anything just by throwing up more computing resources at the problem - but that means the language/framework/library is less scalable than something else which requires less resour

I also disagreed with that part in the article. Big-bang rewrites can be just fine - but usually there are reasons it's not possible.

The important question is actually "should there be legal duties", which you can determine from the original point: "I am just shocked at the amount of control, influence, and involvement into their students' lives unive
