I think those people just want to impose their will on others and engage in attention seeking by constantly being offended about anything and everything. People with anxiety usually want to do the opposite: Stay in the background and not at

It's a lot easier to add another server to a data center than to increase the battery life and performance of a mobile device that is constraint by size and cooling.

After turning the country into a dictatorship, regularly arresting and torturing foreign tourists, and now corona, I doubt that there are any tourists left at all.

Companies in the US used to hire hitmen to murder union leaders (I guess they still do, at least in South America). When that didn't work they sent in the national guard to mow down the strikers with machine guns.

There are regulatory reasons. In Germany all the functional parts of your car have to be certified, often for that specific vehicle and in combination with other parts. To a certain degree that's definitely necessary. I don't want

What if one black person feels discriminated? What if all black people feel discriminated? I think it's clear that the term blacklist is not discriminatory in origin nor is it used in a discriminating way. If, hypothetically, all black

Have you read the manifesto? The whole point of agile is to continuously adapt the process to fit your team. Following SCRUM to the letter is exactly the thing you shouldn't do.

One of my colleagues works remote from another country and you were going to charge him $600/month. That's more than $7k per year, a good 10% of the gross salary of a senior developer in Germany. For that much money our company ca

Do you personally contribute to some random FOSS project? Usually these projects are big and it's just too much work up front to implement a tiny feature which you don't even know if it will be accepted upstream. I'd rather s

There is no problem here. We should be happy that this unsustainable all-consuming population growth is slowly coming to an end. Not having children is by far the best thing you can do for the environment and the world as a whole.

In my experience, this will result in a ton of unneeded extra complexity. Microservices are very heavy and should be cut along domain boundaries and not technical boundaries so that they are as independent as possible and you reduce the nee

Deus Ex: Human Revolution showed how a good hacking mini game can be done. Besides, hacking is only one instance in a long series of disappointments. Pretty much every single feature of this game is shallow and badly implemented.

It's not like the PC version was ready. It has issues that can not be fixed in another 6 months of development. But as bad as the PC version is, it's at least somewhat playable in contrast to the console version.
