I think the point missing is that food that get wasted could not arrive where it is needed before getting rot. Letting aside the expenses to do that. The problem is not that we was…

If the plan is to live off the savings, probably not. The idea is to make some investments, either stocks or real estate (for renting, for example), and have the money work for you…

There are already problems with this written in a comment above. I recall it would be like: do residents get it too? How long they need to be in the country to get the UBI? What ab…

Totally agree with this. Otherwise, I don't see UBI solving anything, but creating new problems.

No, is the other way around. You claim UBI would work and the problems some of us said are not real problems because it could be solved. So now, it is your turn to explain which me…

Of course! government intervention in prices and supply and demand! How nobody thought about it before? Well, they did. And it failed spectacularly, as central planning of prices d…

I'm confused too. How is that engineers here talking about UBI as a solution to this pressure to keep your job don't talk or consider how to pay that? Besides, when everyone has a …

Oh man, if you see it like that, is probably becoming true. In other industries or jobs it could b, but in tech? Companies are the ones looking for more developers, and if you made…

I think it may be about expectations. It is a game and, no matter what people or company say, they are NOT your family. Face your job with that in mind, avoiding the cynical views/…

As mentioned above, I think it is due to the fact that SPF may be too broad, as in softfail SPF (defined here https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7208#section-2.6.5 ). Based o…

I would add that SPF alone may not be enough, and that's why some of the other mechanisms are needed. AFAIK if you have a softfail SPF (a record ending in `~`), you would need DMAR…

Yes, life sometimes sucks. It is also bad to have to commute for 1 hour or more when you're a junior and have no car, so what? When you're young you will struggle with things, we a…

Actually not true. That is the typical environment of big corps in my experience. And also for companies who didnt adapt correctly to remote work. I work from Europe with a NY base…

That is true. But the problem here is not the remote work, is the company workflow. It will be the same problem in the office.

That is also the case when studying, and people may go to libraries or other places. That's an option too. The bright side is that a junior eng. is young, motivated and full of ene…

"But personally the late night hours is a time when the world seems to stop and I'm able to be in my own space." I think this is exactly what the definition conveys. I had this "ni…

Being myself a big advocate of remote work (and being working remote for the last 3 years, before pandemic) I agree that usually people underestimate the downsides. The thing is, i…

> But I would imagine it's far slower than doodling on a napkin with a colleague during break. I think you overestimate how much relevant these napkin innovation situations are. Ta…

It doesn't need to be so. I started in my actual company 3 years ago, NY based startup and I was based in Europe. The first months we had every day meetings with one of the senior …

"I am not employed to write programs for other users or to be read by programmers. Every user is different." Well, unless you are the only programmer that company will ever has, yo…

"Rich people mostly ignore poor people because visible poverty makes them uncomfortable so they look away. They hate themselves if they see our humanity so they try not to." It has…

In regards to finding a project to start practicing, coupled with buying a dev board, I can recommend this course https://www.edx.org/course/embedded-systems-shape-the-world-... I …

Spain. There are levels of taxation that provokes the following: your small company (1 to 10 employees) is doing really well so you try to increase the number of employees and busi…

This is, in my opinion and experience, the main gist of the problem. Management work doesn't take full time and people get bored or scared they can lose their jobs if someone finds…

I would agree with that. But the problem (already mentioned) is: how could a manager help you grow in the technical field if the manager is out of touch with it and didn't do codin…
