Have you used VS without major extensions like Resharper for a decent length of time? I find Resharper slows everything down significantly and makes VS worse overall.

It probably is, but it's a Ponzi scheme with a potentially addictive lower layer in the form of a game, which is going to make previous ponzi scheme architects jealous. Me giving money to Bernie Madoff via wire transfer hoping for gain

Can you not use network namespaces on Linux to give a process its own restricted network device and then filter that traffic?

I don't think that's particularly useful though. A program with requirements like that seems more likely to be split up into two independent pieces.

I cannot bring myself to strongly believe in putting more inputs on a CRUD app, adding some database columns, and doing some business logic on that data elsewhere. It's bog standard work most of the time. Small little incremental featu

Maybe for new hires getting a lower rate, but if they try to cut back pay for doctors/nurses after the pandemic, you'll probably just end up with a strike. We already did jack shit for healthcare workers and a base pay decrease wo

If it takes 15 years to teach someone only to a decent level, the industry needs to start laying out plans for effective training and credentialing. The solution here is not higher years required, but more effective teaching. Learning on th

Idk what robustness is saving us from - if you’re big enough, you get bailed out. Amazon is clearly big enough now. There’s lots of bank competition but they still needed a bailout.

I’m thinking being able to replay worlds or map geometry like your brain is rendering it live is more rare and maybe this is teaching it a bit. No one’s ever quizzed me on how many details (big and small) I could get right though.

Ditto. Good pentesters have arguably more skills than myself since I just do business apps, but I made about $40k less as a pentester than what I do now. Plus the pentesting interviews are just as annoying as the development interviews.
