Nothing about being "worth" it if you ask me. It's about collecting the money (and not getting layed off coz you're the guy that makes the most). This will depend on the company. Some companies do stack ranking and you c

Not a real issue at all in my experience. Businesses all over have done this for decades. If you have many many microservices what is the combined resource usage vs. the monolith? Probably about the same and microservices may use more resou

The modern answer? Really? I'm sorry but this is exactly what tons of "old" businesses have done for ages. But they are being told over and over that that isn't "web scale". In my old life we just scaled via th

I find it interesting how I got down voted for pointing out the same thing as you basically (just you did it with regards to China's report your neighbor program, while I pointed towards East Germany's report your neighbor and fam

Oh I'm sure some other people took the discussion on various different ways. Such is communication between humans ;) Btw. in case it helps you. No fresh clone in a different place needed. I think I know what kind of situation you mean

It is a misconception that all nomadic or foraging humans had to spend 100% of their time trying to stay alive. I'm fact, if you look at African tribes and their original lifestyle you will realize how little time they had to spend on

Are you sure that our beliefs aren't "just" (the appropriate equivalent) of a stimulus or data point that has really high weight, e.g. because it was created during childhood and constantly reinforced? Take the biases that we

I think all three of you are actually hitting the nail on the head. Large headed nail I suppose ;) Take ne as an example. I could've had a really low user number on Slashdot if I had registered right away. I never actually did but I re

You realize the good old UK is also apparently taking cues from the East German Stasi here?

I completely agree with the advice you got there and I'll add one thing on top. I give a shit about what I do. I know my employer does not give a shit about me though. My advice: keep a timesheet! It's amazing how much unpaid over

It's funny. I never understood the food coma thing. Never experienced it. Sure you're full after overeating on pizza but that was it. Until I did keto. Went to a friend's house and they made pizza in their pizza oven, so sure

This. I don't think I have celiac but I have issues with histamine. Went on Keto and probiotics (Bacillus subtilis being in the mix doing the trick for me). I was very lethargic and I couldn't drink alcohol, no alcohol free beer e

I'm pretty sure (well hoping) that all of the advice to go deep into one thing would always be in addition to actually being able to code. I completely agree with you that understanding git very deeply is not needed or useful to the le

At least in pre git days many large companies had people whose entire job it was to merge and resolve merge conflicts. They were not part of the project teams. They were part of the build and deployment team. Granted in any sane company thi

You don't. The consistency is within the same book (or maybe publisher). A book would look ridiculous if every paragraph was using a different number of spaces after punctuation. But between two books its just personal preference wheth

3D sucks. I have to remember some other damn password. It happens rarely enough that it's even worse than if everyone did it because I have to go check what the password is first. You can basically check whether someone hacked me. The

I would kindly suggest that yes you are then. The above is "how you predicted it would be reached". And to be fair how many others probably did and it might have been the original intention of the phrase even. I definitely thought

So are you saying that if you set a target for someone to reach, if he doesn't reach it in exactly the way that you predicted he would, he didn't actually reach the target?

Not sure about Leipzig (not the OP here) but in a sort of comparable (ish, Leipzig is much larger but also in the east of Germany) place elsewhere in Germany I paid about the same like 20 years ago. I had the choice of 2 bus routes to get t

Sounds a bit like my experience waking up from anethesia after an operation. I couldn't see but that didn't disturb me for some reason. I felt that I was lying down but had no idea why. I tried to sit up but couldn't. Wheneve

Also I wonder why one needs to drink any soda at all. What's wrong with water? Simple plain water, not even carbonated. I don't get why so many people out there "can't drink it". Apparently it doesn't taste goo

It's not just aspartame. When I played soccer as a kid, coach would give us a little "fructose bar" at half time to boost us for the second half of the game. I would always get a headache from it so I started turning it down.

Not the OP here but there's two things to that. As a European coming to America, you generally find the sweets here to be waaay to sweet. You get used to it though. I also did Keto for a while though and after you've been on that

Absolutely. This is worse when eating soup. You'd have to be veeeery careful when eating soup with a spoon. I always hated eating soups as a kid coz I'd feel so bloated after.

This. Kind of, since I just don't drink any soda but I still find that skipping breakfast and having late lunch (or dinner only) is much easier if I didn't have carbs for breakfast. Coffee and a waffle with syrup will make me hung
