Yeah, it was actually a lot of fun. I worked in a port-related area and often we would just cruise around the port and look at the ships. If it looked cool we would yell loudly and ask if we could come aboard. The seamen were usually thrill

I remember Mohammed Said (of Laravel fame) telling this story to Matt Stauffer in the Laravel Podcast. He wrote is programs at home on pen and paper and went to the public library to try them out.

No idea where you get your news on Germany, but the only valid thing was the part about the auto industry being legacy. As someone working in the energy sector, I can gladly tell you we got rid off most dependencies, we’re 95% independent r

Price is not everything. My company has Gitlab licenses as a part of a larger Microsoft enterprise agreement/partnership but we still pay for GitLab Ultimate and use that as a default for all developers.

As a Linux (and Mac) user, I had the same feelings for a long time, until I joined a large corporation that heavily relies on Microsoft stuff. So just speaking as a user: Outlook is the crappiest email client on the planet, but it’s the bes

Those industrial titanium powder printers are not comparable at all what you know, I assume. They‘re used at scale to produce airplane parts. Usually also utilising bionic structures, e.g. to make brackets that are much lighter and sturdier

Working for one of the largest energy grid providers in Europe, I can tell you: This is the future we‘re currently building. We already have many areas with a huge energy surplus completely generated by renewables. There is no one here th

My company would happily pay for licenses. Not after this shit was pulled, though. They even went so far to remove the Kong enterprise api management products from our internal order system. It's not so great to work with a company tha

Inline styles have no support for media queries, container queries pseudo classes (hover, focus), pseudo elements (before) and attribute selectors. With tailwind I can even just stack them like this "lg:hover:px-[10px]".

Works councils represent the interests of the employees and work very well in my experience. AFAIK companies with strong workers representation do a lot better than those without. Council members are elected on a yearly basis. By law they c

The key mapping still works. I prefer the UK layout, e.g. (which has the vertical return key instead of the horizontal enter key in US layouts). If I connect a UK keyboard and use US mapping it still works. Generally, though, I always try t

Starting a competitor involves doing all the things that Reddit is doing (having a legal team, servers across the world and staff to operate them, making policy decisions, ...). That is not at all the same as building an iOS client using an

We‘re using a FIDO2 security key as a passkey. Corporate policies force our users to also password-protect these. So whenever people authenticate using a FIDO2 key as their passkey, they also need to enter its password. The benefit of passk

Exactly. I work for a larger company that builds and maintains the electrical grid in many European countries. I won’t say there are no challenges, but I can assure you that we are confident that we can build the solution(s) to sustain no o

At least the first line of commit messages shouldn’t describe WHAT changed but WHY the change was made.

The Katadyn Pocket water filter will probably last you a lifetime with the (replaceable) 50.000L filter it comes with.

Yup. I have inherited a custom pair of leather hiking boots that‘s at least 40 years old and I intend to use them for another 40. Of course it’s pure luck that these boots fit me perfectly.

That’s funny. I’ve recently been involved with several projects steered by high-end consulting firms. They were all complete shit shows, most of all the SAP projects. The problem IMO is, that on the corporate side, you often don’t have any

Or maybe just cool down a little and give them the chance to clarify things? From reading the discord, this really doesn’t sound like a hostile takeover but well intentions with bad wording.

No premature optimization. Don't wrap code in complex patterns unless you're sure you're gonna need it within the next hour. E.g. if you're building some kind of file system access and know you want different "drive

Fathom Analytics is quite fool proof. No cookies (hence no consent) required, completely anonymized data that still identifies unique visitors and provided valuable analytics.

Depends on the country and sector. Where I work it’s pretty much impossible to fire people. Worst case, positions with older employees are phased out (which still sucks for the teams). That means employees get offered nice retirement packag
