   Completely expected. That's why the efficacy is not 100%. We have people in hospital after 2 rounds of Pfizer.

   Obviously this is very personal, but - not working in the last few hours before going to sleep improved the quality of my sleep - going to sleep together with my partner improved our relationship a lot (I'm not talking about sex life,

    This is absolutely not the case. Enterprise app developers (etc.) are not stupid. The domain and the business problem are often extremely complex and hard to understand.

    There's a very good reason why Spring is used so widely. Complex enterprise apps are often complex because the use case and the environment is complex. E.g.: - integration testing and unit testing is required - transparently pluggable

    I am positive that not 'everyone' is using Jira in the wrong way, just that many-many companies use it and many companies have broken culture or processes (or they have the right processes for the company, but that's not enjo

    Jira. Please stop crapping on it. It's a tool that's too flexible so many people can't resist abusing it. It's you, not it. For us, it's primarily a documentation tool. It has great integrations. If someone makes a
