It's a structural problem. If everyone expects 20 years of experience people to be principal engineers, and only 5% of roles are principal jobs, then after 20 years 95% of engineers need to leave the industry. And so, the industry is m

I very much experienced this with our django application and traced the problem back to django's dev server polling for fs changes at 1hz. Apparently this is enough to spin fans with docker for mac. I solved the problem by installing i
