   TC or GTFO. Honestly I've been in markets where this worked out. You pay a lot of money to get someone good who's motivated and does great work. Tech recently though has been a game where you get a high paying job and you just spe

   I was going to say the opposite. Leaders are often wise, experienced and good communicators, they dont need intelligence.

   As the website says, Cloudflare Tunnel is a great solution, both for this reason and also to throttle if you have to.

   Another issue is that I've spent a lot of time and effort in the past to train up graduates on our grad program. Previously you would train up people and they'd train 2 years then work for at least 2 years after. During the boom t

   Actually the other part is everyone wants to work from home and training juniors remotely is just too hard.

    My FB/Instagram keeps showing me that pretty but loud woman about learning to be a "Front End" or "Back end" developer. It seems everyone wants to be a developer these days and why not, seems easy.

    More realistically, what would you do if you were a developer in one of the cut off countries eg Russia, Iran, N Korea right now.

    Yeah makes sense. I love the politics like this where everyone is firmly in solidarity but everyone is making deals out the back door. Like Europeans at war with Russia but buying gas, Americans hating China but spending all their money on

    That's what I thought too, not sure why OP said "Emirates cannot trade with Israel", maybe its an old anecdote.

    Most x86 hardware comes with Windows license already. If build your own, I bought a Windows 11 Pro license last week for $13. Cost shouldn't be an issue.

    Is this a small company or a team in a big one? If you're a team in a corporate its good to talk to other divisions and see what they're up to. There might be company wide tools you dont know about. Usually too you'll see peo

    Wow great, I used to customize Excel a lot for financial companies. VBA was good enough until about 20 years ago. VSTO was never as good because you need admin rights to install it. ExcelDNA was much better. I gave up 10 years ago so dont k

    I could be interested in this, but would have to be from a reputable company, not a small startup. The weak link in my security is SMS which most online accounts rely on, so until that problem is fixed the email is a secondary issue.

    Thanks I hate this, but seems to be everywhere now. "This products is now 3 times cheaper!", WTF. They still haven't got to percentages yet, like 200% off!!.
