Yes its insane LOL Managers were non-coders themselves, and they looked at developers with suspicion. This happens in a lot of projects, where developers are almost treated like children or assembly-line workers. I realized through small hi

Higher pay than consulting its hard, a consulting job pays usually almost twice as much as a permanent job. I prefer it to permanent, because besides the monetary aspect you can also get into new projects just starting out more often, and t

Yes sure, already after a few months doing production support and reverse engineering instead of coding, you start getting questions on interviews about why are you not coding lately anymore. This was a bad look, because hiring managers wan

My shittiest project was a hostile takeover from another development team. In the interview, the manager told me a bunch of BS that turned out to be completely false: that it was a new project, that lots of new development was expected, tha

That is obviously false, nobody tried to censor the creator. People have just pointed out that the title is inappropriate, which it obviously is. It implicitly conveys the message that women don't belong in Finance. I don't see ho

The title subtly but still obviously implies that finances and investing are men's business, and not women's. I don't see how anyone can deny that. I bet that many women reading this title that work in finance don't appr

Water also works great, the plant milk does not change much the taste. No matter which plant milk, at least it won't have the bovine growth and female hormones and saturated fat and cholesterol.

There could be all sort of reasons, but cow's milk no matter what we feed the cow it's still a cocktail of bovine hormones. The cow just gave birth and its in lactation period, so its hormones are through the roof no matter what.

Cow's milk is full of growth hormones and fat, including saturated fat and cholesterol, but I think the worst is probably that it's a cocktail of bovine growth and female hormones. It is highly allergenic and linked to asthma and

Angular also works in a somewhat similar way, there is also no virtual DOM. Instead, the modern compiler is used at build time to generate what looks like a change detection function and a DOM update function per component. These functions

Those are condiments, used in minimal amounts to give more flavor to the food. They do not make the bulk of the calories, maybe 1 to 5% of a meal. This is unlike a pea protein isolate burger, which makes a huge part of the meal. Also, ther
