Part of it probably stems from that it's always been done this way, and the processes haven't evolved over time. Another part is also to protect the bank against rogue employees, it wouldn't be the first time a developer made

I work in finance, where we have clearly defined processes for production support, simply because developers don’t have access to production environments. However, production support teams don’t have a real understanding of our application

This happens to me so many times, sometimes I will wake up about 30 minutes after my alarm was supposed to go off. I've always wondered if I was somehow turning of my alarm while waking up and instantly falling back asleep or if my ala

That's because gambling for cash is illegal in Japan, you buy balls, and win balls, exchange those balls for tokens. Then across the street, you can exchange those tokens for prizes / cash, thereby circumventing the law. It has no

That seems like a strange flow, it means the user first has to input his email on your app, then you redirect to Microsoft, user will have to input his Microsoft email and password, and redirect back to your app. This means the user now has

95% of your list is applicable to any other project you might venture on. This is absolutely nothing specific to static site generators. In fact, if you started a WordPress site from scratch, you'll probably be adding a ton more things

I personally think he could've handled this is in a much nicer way, calling a business shady or saying they screw over clients instantly sets the precedent that you're trying to attack them. If he just asked them what would happen
