This gives me fond memories of this excellent book I read as a kid. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_and_First_Men

Also hook it up to the Twitter api and multiply any price movements by 5 for 2 hours after an Elon tweet.

Nothing very automated I am afraid, but we had enough people who cared to do the admin work to make the figures reliable. We wanted to get a handle on how often work went backwards in our life cycle, and why it went backward. We had a JIRA

I envy people who enjoy and make a living from social interaction or physical work. I may be wrong, but looking from the outside it looks to me like they are improving themselves as a person and earning a living at the same time. I need to

100% agree. If you are good at coding, then you code for a day and create something you are proud of. +1 to self worth. You send it for code review or deploy and you get positive feedback. +2 to self worth. A junior dev in house or browsing

We tracked work hours using a custom desktop app in our team (made by the team over several iterations to make it not burdensome), and insisted that devs log time against the downtime category (only during work hours of course). Some of the

Another study here that uses an estimate for productivity. https://ftp.iza.org/dp8129.pdf His models show peak productivity between 5 and 6 hours a day. In my own experience, I have found productivity more related to sleep

Yes I am the same. Work sets me goals that I obsess about. I like playing golf, but I can’t obsess about getting my handicap down. I also can’t obsess about a hobby project. I can about a product that I know has a user base. Then the brain

“Weird psychological addiction” that’s where I would place it too.

I agree. And I tried it too. In the end I couldn’t find anything else to do in my downtime. So I went home at 5 and worked from there. Got up early and worked before coming in. I work from home now so the above is moot now.

Working 80 hours a week is unhealthy and a bad idea. I don’t think there is any solid argument against that. Until recently I was a dev manager for about 20 devs (not all direct). I did work 80 hours a week, still do. I know I am unhealthy.

Your question is "Is it ok?" rather than "Is it legal?". Assuming you have checked the legality of this hiring criteria in your country/state... I think it is ok, I live in a country with very little regulation, by

I agree it is a steep learning curve coming from docker only. But if you have to scale your app or other resources quickly and easily, I think k8s is the best of the bunch. I have found other solutions more difficult (docker swarm, paas pla

As soon as we brought our redis and mongo in house, k8s became easier and cheaper than heroku (and 2 other PAAS solutions that we had experimented with). After the switch (and a single open source tool) we still didn't need any special

> "you will not, in general, see that error at creation time. " I agree, this was daunting for me too. I use werf.io now (an opensource project which I am not affiliated with, I am just a user). It deploys my resources and wait
