Wow, I had no idea it was that bad. Good luck in finding a job abroad! If you don't want to move that far, and live in one of the safest countries in the world, I can highly recommend Norway.

Maybe we could start by doing a proof-of-concept before we rewrite the civilization?

This reflects my experience as well - most (all?) literature and presentations on REST cover extremely simple use cases, and when you start building complex applications things start to get ... complicated, and you discover that there aren&

I've had long-time overtime policies changed for the better, actually! It was great. We had went from not getting paid for fixing servers on xmas eve, to a clear and well paid system of who was on call. I have less than great experienc

I'm surprised so many people have negative experiences with HR. Perhaps I've been lucky, or perhaps it is because we have a different culture in Scandinavia, but my experiences are almost entirely positive.

There's a flood of aging developers right around the corner, starting with the C-64 generation. Perhaps there are not tons of older developers now, but there will be soon.

I try to eat low carb too, and feel better when I do. I've also lost a lot of weight. One thing I dislike about eating low carb, or paleo for that matter, is that it is not possible to measure it (other than weight, of course). It is b

It's true that video game streaming is far from being mainstream, but considering how engaged kids are in gaming now, I don't think it's far-fetched to see it only becoming more popular in the future. There is already a lot o

What ORMs have taught me: people will complain endlessly about how ORMs don't work, when they don't bother to understand how they work, what they should/shouldn't be used for, and how to use them appropriately.

I took a position as a team manager when I was offered, and I absolutely do not regret it, but it made me realize that what I really wanted to do was to be a developer. Try to find out what you really want to do, and be aware of that it is

Yeah, maybe it wasn't a great question. I can get 3.5% where I live, though. Mutual funds may be a much better option, though.

Have you compared this to just putting the money in a high-interest savings account?

It would be great if everyone used PGP/GPG, but there's something missing for it to get widespread adoption. It probably needs to be easier and more user friendly somehow. Perhaps there's an opportunity for someone to do some

Very nice parable, I love it. It seems to easy to get stuck in between the two, though - working hard, but not hard enough to retire early, but still not having time to enjoy life as the Mexican fisherman.
