This is great advice. I don't know about other countries but Germany does have a severe "specialist" fetish when it comes to recruiting IT professionals. Less severe for permanent positions but very painfully apparent for con

Agreed. But I would like to add that there are also numerous UX pitfalls that apps fall into that are trivially solvable on the web. Broadly: - deeplinking (while technically doable it is still a pita to set up cross platform and require ju

Sounds like something very fixable though. Why is it so difficult for apple to fix the "engineering mistake" and move the PWA process to a less privileged user or even a jail?

Another aspect of this might be what I'm experiencing. I'm currently increasingly often confronted with overly bloated codebases that, with the added speed of llms / coding assistants, have reached levels of unmaintainability

Cool idea. Stuff like this reminds me why I like the vim ecosystem so much. At least since the introduction of terminal buffers, most people I know that use vim for serious code work have a form of "send text under cursor to shell&quot

Can't such issues be solved by having something like a helm chart with meaningful scaling cofigs provider? Nexclozlud dies somthing like this and it makes scaling the cluster a breeze.

Sometimes I wonder whether ETFs that track top valuation will lead to some weird stickyness and overvaluation in say, S&P500.

Probably. The biggest blind spot internal auditors have is things that didn't leave a paper trail. It is too common that such investigations don't even start because there is just one connecting piece of evidence missing. Leave a

The article talks about how this one fungus found in the depths of the sea can break down PE (polyethylene) plastics. The biggest problem with combating ocean plastic is deployment of any solution. The seas are vast and trash, while a huge

My rant, as evident after that sentence, is about the industry selecting to standardize on Swagger instead of emerging a more powerful/succinct/etc system.

Fine article describing the weak points of GrahQL. I find it a bit poor though that the only recommended alternative is OpenAPI rest APIs. I have no beef against doing REST, jsonRPC etc. Actually I consistently steer people that way. But th

But is the Internet really as centralized as Email has become? I was living under the impression that Internet backbone providers where more diversified than that.

You still cannot stop, remove or update a Dev container from CLI and there at numerous issues with the rest of the implemented features. [0]: https://github.com/devcontainers/cli?tab=readme-ov-file#cont...

I am a bit familiar with this pattern. I think this and what the OP describes are the two sides of a similar coin. On the OP side we have a culture that is too inclusive whereas in your case it is a culture of not breing inclusive enough. N
