It’s not (only) decision makers that need an explanation, it’s developers. Too many confuse technical debt with technology. Maybe your kitchen is clean but not so optimized with classic tools. Instead of cooking each meal manually, why not

That’s fine as long as you have balance and remember to do other things for fun too and not live all your life doing projects like that, because ultimately at the longer term there is nothing and you may have huge regrets of not having trul

As a generalist I also found consulting to be a good fit for me. Also good if you easily get bored because you are usually not tied to a product and get to work with different teams and clients every few months.

It was always like this except in the hobbyist world, and I think maybe you and some developers are confused because the corporate takeover of the web is relatively recent. When I think of software development in the past I think of Office

> France destroyed basically all of their forest in the last few centuries. It's a funny claim. It's like a homeless man saying his wealth increased by 100% in one day. Sure but the point is that it's not directly related

The key quote is that 94% of the drop is in Latin America and the Caribbeans. For example in France forests are increasing since more than 100 years [0]. So discussing diet is interesting but eating les meat in the developed world will do n

I’m not sure my doctor has access to better studies than what is in the TFA. My question is weirdly formulated, what I ask is is supplementation useless given what we know? Or is it safer to stay in the (arbitrary?) recommended range? What
