Ha, I wish there was a way we could split the labor on that. You do the learning, somehow transfer that to me and I do the bug fixing. I love fixing up a legacy system but don't enjoy the first few weeks of feeling unproductive. That h

There is a mix. Some things you can learn from the code other things you need documentation. Often it's the domain knowledge that is hard to glean from the code. Especially when bug fixing. For example: The domain expert told me t

I hate the experience of a new code base when everything is so alien that at first it seems horrible. Then when you learn the ideas they're using you start to like the way everything is put together. Then you start finding navigation r

I work in an automated factory. We will not get to zero humans in the loop anytime soon. However we have drastically eliminated the number of unskilled humans required. I've not understood why fast food doesn't use more of the sor

I worked on a couple of large legacy PHP projects. They were terrible. Then I saw someone come in and modernize a legacy PHP project. It was a thing of beauty. I think modern PHP is seriously underrated.

Consistently spend less than you make is the most important part. Then always factor the risk in an investment according to your ability to handle risk.

I liked the way that was written. It was very easy to digest.

What a stunning project, it's beyond a beginner result. It's polished and fun to play. Excellent work!

You're probably much smarter than you give yourself credit for. You are achieving at a very high level.

Wow! This is what I love about HN. You get people like the founder of Tarsnap responding to questions.

I love my job because I get to have a huge amount of creative input. I get to suggest pretty much all of the technology we use. I get to understand the business domain fully, even take part in informing business decisions. I get respect and

I still find jasper reports the best in pdf generation. Jasper studio gives you okay design tools. Much better than hand coding. Jasper server means integration is as simple as a rest interface. The community edition seems to do everything

Have you talked to many conservatives? It seems you have a very polarized view. It's almost a caricature. Our media paints the other side very negatively. I come from a very left leaning family and while I have been an offensive jerk i

Not to mention that most of these services run on compromised systems or leverage amplification attacks. There is no way that can be legal.

I think left wing authoritarian identitarianism is the best neutral term I have heard. I'm not sure if that would be found offensive however.

Yes exactly that. I managed first class honours and the only benefit is that I'd be able to start a PHD without finishing a masters. We had a fourth year as our engineering degree was part of an internal agreement such that it would be

Correct, my wording was poor. You can go from Bachelor's to PHD but only if you achieve first class honours. Here honours is an additional year of study as well.

It is concerning people think this. Modern politics has become so much about mud slinging that people honestly believe horrible things about political other groups. Conservatives do not vote for Nazis. They don't support Nazi ideologie

Here in New Zealand you cannot go directly into a PHD. You have to get a first class honours or complete a masters before you can start a PHD.
