Growing up in the north of the UK I had the same 2 lunches every day at primary school (4-11) without even batting an eyelid, cheddar cheese, sliced between white bread, packet of crisps. Or the same sandwich with a slice of processed ham i

So much this. I was brought up being told swear words were the worst thing and never heard my parents utter a single one. All while classmates used them all the time. All this did was cause me to use them all the time in literally every sit

Maybe an overthink from my part, but I swear I also replaced appliances (from small, kettle, to large, washing machine) all 1+ times in the 10 year period. Although maybe there were also cheaper

I used Bumble for a while a bit under 3 years ago and id say 85% of my matches fell into the bucket of 'hi' first messages. I found that if I only responded to people who actually sent me a 'real' first message it was an

I try not to.. but trying not to have routine tends to end in a rather haphazard but repeatable pattern anyway. Some days i wake up and go straight to work at ~7.30, at my desk for 8.10. Some days ill lie around watch tv and relax in the mo

Many big tech co’s have ‘distrectionary equity’ awards exactly for this. One off large stock grants. Enough to keep your pay ‘up’ above your band for a few years

Maybe im being naive but if you had an inkling something like this was going to happen, and given the 'worth' of the guys in questions.. would you not just burn all the personal devices you had when you left? it seems amazingly ca

I used to be incredibly efficient in the beginning of my first job, i could easily do 8 hour days of fairly solid coding. Then came the investment and the big client and the 'big time' and i spent 6mo doing 12-14 hour days and man

Not sure how much I agree with the sentiment of this article as a relating class seemingly directly with salary. In the UK its fairly well considered now that a working class 50 year old thats worked at UK average pay for the majority of th

Interestingly similar discussion going around in the UK at the moment after a UK MP came out saying that '£70,000' salary makes you 'rich'. 70k as a single income won't get you a flat in London in any reasonable tim

This is totally untrue. As someone from the north of england, now living in London I would say <5% of people I went to school with took a 'gap year'. In London I would put that number closer to 25%, but that says more about the

Not everyone is the same, there are a lot of people who come straight out of college to the big companies who end up not being incredible software engineers. And vice versa. Not everyone can prove their real skillset to the Facebooks of thi

Depends on what you're looking for. Theres a lot more customizability in Hybris and Demandware. More advanced features and extensibility. The same can be said for Magento, Magentos issues always come down to performance.

Depends on the use case, small medium shops I think the shopify business plan covers everything, and once you've grown to want more, go with one of the big dogs. Hybris or Demandware.

FizzBuzz has to be the simplest coding exercise out there after hello world. No matter how much pressure you feel it can't be hard to figure that out?
