500$ is a quite average price for the country I live in. Of course I don't mean cheap airlines, only the national ones.

One big point which hasn't been resolved by scrum in many companies. Manual testing - until it's tested by the QA tested you shouldn't mark it done. However, it is very seldom to f…

My observations are than "agility" in most corporations mean "agile" approach to requirements, hard fixed approach to deadlines and environment or sdlc. Once I got blamed from syst…

I come from the soviet block and I like to see when westerners keep flagging my post for laughing out communist advocates ( they are growing as you see ). My country ( Poland ) was…

Frauds are very often hidden or disguised as "bad investments" (yeah banks do mistakes as any other human beings) and covered with money from "slush funds". When they are on vacati…

I don't deny frauds in credit agencies. However, somebody was buying banks' CDOs? Who, ancient aliens? No, they weren't called surprime because credit agencies cheated on their rat…

I worked once for an investment bank and there it was mandatory to take once in year min 2 week vacation minimum. It wasn't because of their sympathy, it was due to the fraud preve…

That's the convenient myth to think banks caused crisis. Money printing and credit rates lowering by government caused this. Free money? Sure, why not. Please watch princes of yen …

My thesis was "you can't take Wikipedia quality for granted" it fails to be objective on many topics. And your thesis is? Your counter thesis?

And this is cherry picking. As studies show the quality varies strongly for historical, politically controversial and highly scientifical topics ( only few wikipedia editors ). Lin…

Most wikipedia citations are linked to some news articles (this is not too bad, still newspapers are being archived) and some random internet blog articles of some random people wh…

The owner of the site can remove content even from the web archive. It's far harder to remove books with isbns from national libraries.

There is a in memory database H2. Anyways, I have never used h2 as short form of http/2

Nope with an exception for CS academic theory. One year for CS is like a decade for human life and thus almost every IT book gets obsolete after a relase. That's why I read officia…

The biggest spam I get from Facebook ads itself. I live in Switzerland and I am BOMBARDED with financial frauds, scams and ponzi like schemes served directly from their ads. I chec…

Surely, nobody in Dachau knew what what have been happening in one of the very first nearby concentration camp on the daily basis. It originated few years before the second world w…

Understanding that you don't really need to understand it all and you need to understand only part of them. If you do try otherwise, you run into overhours :-) Most popular techniq…

Still you do have some requirements. Many legacy systems are 'as-is'. Just more or less working source code with huge label 'don't touch it'.

So stop mining damn coal!!! You didn't answer the damn question - how it looks like when German and Czech coal mines keep mining without any issues? Please, explain me this. German…

Czech people hate Polish and that's fact. However, regarding this brown coal mine, czech coal mines are very nearby and these ones are not toxic / dangerous to the environment? Sur…

No she doesn't make millions. It's not her fault that now her house is 10x more valuable ( on the paper ). As long as she doesn't sell, rent somebody else she has no income. No inc…

Yeah, nobody should have vacation cabin. It's very bad for the sake of society. I will paraphrase wrongly attributed to Bill Gates quote. 15m should be enough for each worker in th…

Ah sure. Old lady living in the house she bought 50 years ago will have to pay insanely high land tax because now it's red hot city location, what 50 years ago used to be suburbs. …
