It's widely known state of things because of the current situation (low interest rates for very long time, etc.). Infact, many financial institutions and experts have been of the idea that a major stock crisis was around the corner for

Before you get on a technical interview, an automated system, an HR person and a project manager (or similar) will have to pass on the application, which encourages putting buzzwords tech terms on a CV. Sadly today fewer and fewer companies

In aviation, reducing fuel consumption has always been very important, since it's the most expensive part of flying. The heavier a plane is, the more fuel it needs. But fuel has weight, too, which means you need even more fuel! Reducin

Is that really a problem in the country of the Silicon Valley? Actually, that might be the only thing preventing this from happening.

That's exactly the point he's making. If you use a frontend js framework and you have to do SSR, then there's no longer any reason to use a JS frontend framework, because the reason they were made was to offload to clients th

There's a good reason for that: US does not really need to put backdoors in software to spy. They have the largest tech companies under their legislation and can already force them to disclose information on users. Most companies won&#

For ages fascists have tried to propagate the idea that classics support their views; everyone dismissed them as preposterous. Now, it's the left that says it, to promote the idea that they are just, and no one is else, ever, even 200
