Do they ever have discount codes available? I assumed yes, waited for black Friday for nothing and now not sure what to do.

Does anyone have a good guide like this but with good answers? I can come up with decent solutions to problems, but the best way to learn is to be able to see alternatives you hadn't thought of so you learn something new.

Looks like inflation makes $1 in 1982 about $2.67 today. https://www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation/1982?amount=1 So the Apple II+ were $4000+ in today's money. Still doesn't make the new Mac Pro look re

I've finally bought my house, its pretty scary how much is designed to last 10 years. Kitchen Appliances, HW heater, HVAC, matresses, furniture seems normal to have a steady stream of stuff heading to the landfill.

Many items in the <$30 price range will cost a lot of money to ship it back, let alone the time and effort to process at both ends. Its more efficient just to give away or even throw away yourself, but returning gives you a credit so tha

Agreed feedback is tough. One of the problems is that it depends a lot on the setting and team. A person in one team might get some kind of feedback, but in another team the same person could get the opposite advice. The other problem in ou

I worked on a big C# system with hundreds of windows servers, developed on Visual Studio etc. It was an awesome project and everything worked like clockwork. However there are very few projects using that technology so when I wanted to move

It sounded surprising to me too. Looking closer the source is actually "Human or Animal Blood". Also Ireland similar amounts as the US, so I'm thinking its probably Animal blood, but I haven't found a good definition. h

I've switched from manager and back. Usually there is a real shortage of devs that want to be manager. If you're inclined, ask your boss for some responsibility, maybe with a grad or junior dev, I'm sure you'll get it. A

My advice is you should be getting to know your system well before writing code. Look over as many parts of the codebase you can, run unit tests and see how they're all written and put together. Hopefully then you can write in a simila

Wow you're the second guy I met that went home to a good salary. Is this a manager role I guess? My cousin in law is making like 10 zl/hr so I'm not sure what is going on.

Ironically the managers in the factory are probably baby boomers who started working their way up from the factory floor straight after high school. Which is the way it should be today.

My view isn't full of praise. My family was really affected by the recession he caused. The recession was brutal and lots of people never worked again - it caused a lot of pain and despair. Everyone talks about how taming inflation is

This article says NYC has by far the most number of STEM jobs. So as %age growth is harder to be the highest, but I'm guessing number wise it would be in the top few. https://www.forbes.com/sites/joelkotkin/20

Yes I know that, but how does it affect anyone? Worst I can see is that poor quality banks pay a few percent overnight if they need to borrow on bad days. Surely that is temporary with so many players.

This is fluff. Sure if you build a few multi families in 10% of lots it wont affect neighborhood characteristics much because you're only adding 10-20% more housing. Its doubling and quadrupling (even 10x) the number of housing units t

I agree the last decade has been really tough for sysadmins, but the payoff is developers have had a great time and I dont have to rely on those guys any more.
