Maybe i'm just in a bubble but none of those Docker Desktop replacements work well on a locked down corporate laptop. Sure you can get it to work somehow, manually configuring proxies, dns and stuff. Docker Desktop somehow just works.

yeah, wage adjustment will bring inflation out of control. Not the tax breaks for companies, not the 2 trillion dollar stock market bailout in 2020. It's the people getting a 2 dollar wage increase thats driving the inflation. /s

while i understand your sentiment, over the last few years java became a lot less oracle-centric. JavaEE moved to Eclipse Foundation, openjdk became a reliable open source alternative to the oracle version, a lot more companies are involved

You're not wrong. I mentor some juniors and the ability to talk to a specific target audience about a topic is the most important skill a dev can have. I can teach you the tech stack, but i cant teach you how to talk to the business pe

JAMStack is the fancy term netlify introduced. Most of the time its just a static site generator like gohugo.io with a bit js and apis sprinkled into. So instead of rendering the page at request time, its rendered before deployment, deploye

Not backwater IT market, more like the average. Agile is cool if you have no dependencies. If you have to tie into some 15yo legacy system with a static release cycle its not so agile anymore. Same with CD and microservices. I cant count ho

Yeah, Cloudflare Pages is out, same as Github/Gitlab Pages, Netlify and all the other free offerings Hosted by a US Company. Social Login Buttons are probably a problem too, if they automatically redirect. Could be considered a transmi

Oh boy you have no idea how horrible it is. Check out the latest rulings in that regard. Google Fonts is a big no now. Everything that "transmits PII (including your IP address)" is problematic. Its just a matter of time until al
