I expect to get downvoted in Stack Overflow with the slightest bit of excuse but it seems that Stack Overflow gets you downvoted in every other forum you dare to mention SO without adhering to SO code of being totally right. Issues man. Dee

None in my team. About 3-4 in my open plan (I guess about 100 coworkers in it). Same numbers in Uni.Similar numbers to all the companies I've been so far (best one was about 80-20). SW Dev seems to be male dominated for as long as I re

The point I think you're making is that "it depends" and I agree with it. I've seen companies that have no funding issues building products that they know they will need to maintain in coming years and still follow a few

It's the Cambrian explosion in SW Dev tools. What amazes me though is how undead everything is. It seems that even ancient stuff is still somewhere out there waiting to be maintained. And there's a gazillion more every year adding

Good point on the app restart. I think K8S is in some ways the equivalent of Erlang BEAM for the masses for the cloud.

Can't agree more. To this add the moving-sand landscape of an ecosystem there. But then again it's actually the first public/popular attempt on a cloud OS. There might be a next one with better ergonomics than yamls.

Great work. I'm curious though. Why Flask and not Django? Seems like you wanted a heavyweight after all.

No opportunities arose plus office-politics make my stomach turn. Perhaps it is my long stint in a Byzantine multinational that spoiled that path for me.

TBH I kind-of self sabotaged my Amazon interviews as I was terrified by what I was reading about working conditions there in Glassdoor. Half of my brain was pulling me out the whole time.
