Almost everybody should agree on bugs as the major annoyance to developers :) But do we have data to support any claim about bugs? Are developers to blame? lousy requirements? aging software? inappropriate tech? process? Maybe we need more

Alternatives : - send your resumé to uk/ireland/switzerland to get a good paying job where you can sharpen your skills (it's easy to relocate inside Europe) - start your own business if you're living at your parents AND

yes... kind of... I had another job, and used knowledge from that other job. And I still see many needs that are not fulfilled. I'm around 1000€ MRR now... The app was 100% free for one year, and 600 users signed up... 100 of them stay

I think you should look for a niche. They are everywhere. Select a professional, then find where their pain comes from, and offer a solution. Dentists? no shows are a problem for them. Same for hotels. Car repair? is it easy to find one clo

Who said the french people don't want cheaper taxis with Uber? Did you ask them? So why say Uber is anti democratic? Who's barring people from working with Uber? The french government -> that is anti social, in a country where

I meant to say you've not benchmarked disk access, and we have no idea what each filesystem is actually doing. Caching performance is "nice", but it says nothing about the actual performance we'd get in real use. Maybe t

In a sense, domain names are similar to (software) patents. They're considered private property. Which is, imho, a very bad idea. It's a kind of legal extortion, just like patent trolls and software patents in general. And unused

I like Scala. It's a JVM language, it's extremely powerful, but maybe it's too powerful for us mere mortals. Eclipse allows very fast compilation times, but when I tried sbt, I gave up because I CAN'T wait for compilatio
