    This is anecdotal, but I had a positive experience with the lack of privacy recently. I bought a baby stroller, after doing the typical research and finding a used model, I ended u…

    I wonder what the author means when he says “ classical polymorphic OOP”. In my experience, subtyping is the absolute worst part of OOP. More so in an enterprise setting, where aft…

    I live in Denmark, where we lift a lot of the burden of civilisation together, to give everyone access to education, health/elderly/child care as well as a solid security system fo…

    I work in the public sector of Europe. One of the primary reasons that we prefer Azure and AWS to google cloud is support. When things go really wrong on our office365 platform or …

    I think there has been a steady reduction in the required IT personal needed to do a lot of things. Need a web-page/web-store? You buy a standard product for almost no money, and y…

    When do you need to drop a column in a production DB? Maybe my anecdotal bubble is about to burst, but I work in the public sector, and have for a while and on our 200 different pr…

    I really wish a lot of things started with the conclusion or TLDR. I have ADHD and I have issues reading to the end of an email without skipping and quitting before the end. I mean…

    Well, what would stop them from doing that anyway? Look at Poland or Turkey, it’s not like a constitution is going to save a democracy.

    I always found America’s grips on these things a tad weird. In my country you’re accountable to print the truth, and if you don’t, it comes with fines or even prison time. Because …

    Not necessarily, but if you can justify one thing for yourself then it should help you understand why other people behave similarly. Whether buying hardware or working for google i…

    How do you buy hardware? I’m genuinely asking because where I live it’s impossible to buy stuff that wasn’t made in China. It’s almost impossible to lead en ethical life in this da…

    I think they are choosing react native because they genuinely like react. I don’t remember which video it was exactly, but one of the higher ups talked about future technologies wi…

    I work for a city, I think you can be pretty certain that they are doing both. Hell, the team that’s working on unemployment benefits probably didn’t hear about this project before…

    We’ve gone from using four or five different team/project management SaaS tools to using what’s coming with our already purchased office365 for business subscriptions. I know it’s …

    Really? I really like it. I almost solely use Facebook to organise blood bowl matches, so it’s a lot of group chats and events, and it’s so much better than the old design. I haven…

    This was my thoughts going into it, unfortunately a static ip turned out to cost around the same where I live. :(

    This is the issue. The “no-code” + “no real oversight” tools don’t really work for us, but we wish they did. ;)

    I’m Danish and I work in the public sector, so factor that into my anecdotal experience. We would take it serious, some people get into high positions quickly. We would ask you abo…

    I’d probably pick the new iPhone SE. Unless you have something personal against using Apple products it seems like the perfect fit for what you want at a decent price point.

    We operate 300ish IT systems of various size, from handling vacation time between leaders/employees to full fledged SAP solutions. We have 10,000 employees but only 5 developers of…

    Yes, as an example we can run docker (for windows) on our own VMs or (all) in our Azure setup.
