Utterly disagree. Workday (WDAY) and Veeva (VEEV) as great examples of just recently rallied SaaS stocks. The true value of SaaS is just unfolding, not being stuck on old versions is just now sinking in. The above companies have customers g

First and foremost, do not assume that everyone who ever worked on the code before is a bumbling idiot. assume the opposite. If it's code that has been running successfully in production for years, be humble. Bugifxes, shortcuts, restr

QA Engineer walks into a bar. Orders a beer. Orders 0 beers. Orders 999999999 beers. Orders a lizard. Orders -1 beers. Orders a sfdeljknesv. Hug your QA engineers, they save you from eternal embarrassment.

Good luck. Right now Harvard has the best course in the US. Stanford and Berkeley are a joke. The best path into PM is still doing something hands-on in that area. If it is enterprise, then start in consulting or pre-sales. Consumer is pure

"For a part, economic dependencies between countries." You think this happened by accident in Europe? It was a forced development, by very smart people. Coal/Steel union, EG/EWG, EU. The US and USSR were duking it out a

The most successful peace project on European soil of the last 1000 years can continue. Naysayers of the EU need to learn history. It is worth every penny, every inch of inconvenience. TWO fucking world wars were started by Europe, by natio

The WTO was created to prevent these shenanigans. Europe and US play ball, mostly. EU/NAFTA/CETA/TTIP all part of that leveling of the playing field. China does not play ball, at all. Literally don't give a shit about th

Expect the Chinese state to create a very friendly environment for those domestic planes. Did it in other markets, currently under way against the iPhone. Airbus and Boeing are toast in China.

The core business model of Apple is to sell hardware. That simple. That's why macOS, etc are free now. That's why they're ramping up their enterprise partnerships behind the scenes to ensure big apps run best or even first on

Not arguing about Google, but careful with using revenue growth as a leading indicator. RIM/Blackberry's best years in numbers happened AFTER the iPhone launched. Life comes at you fast.

It is. Functional QA is the very first user of a new feature. Automation handles the rest of the work. But not having a human go through the software as it is intended is a mistake.
