IDK, I worked like in ~20 enterprises and I didn't really see what you describe. "Navigating customer requirements" is mostly everyone speculating on customer needs and pushing the part they own, and whoever happens to get cl

Taking this to the extreme, I think most lessons represent sunset or dead projects. There's no sweet illusions anymore. No assumptions. No ego. No account for infinite flexibility. No shine. No excitement of a new thing. No holy wars.

doesn't your precious stash deserve an external folder or remote branch, in any case? the local repo is always a risk, so many things can ruin it. also, you only need to clean up like once a year, it's by definition a rare operati

my impression was not that most people like their SUVs, they're just don't trust other people and don't follow the conventions. While on the micro level Americans follow the conventions much more seriously than Europeans (sta

sorry, my question is not that much of a legal side, there's plenty of info around - it's rather about identifying jobs which are open to this. Most HRs and hiring managers just ignore the applications which openly state - "I

I worked for Cognizant for a couple of years on multiple engagements, and I'm not Indian. I saw different things, and obviously there was some dynamic around ethnicity, from 'I'll only hire Indians because they work harder&#x

The problem is that publishers, being the middleman, take over authors the same way the supermarket network takes over the food producers. Publishers own the shelf and a price label, and being less numerous and more organized, they can effe

it's kind of strange to me that ad-hoc debugging is considered such a valuable skill. I thought it's mostly a juniors' perspective. I typically set up extended loggers and logger methods, write everything to the some formatte

Neither huge amount of somewhat legit cases of 'unused', nor media coverage doesn't make it right. I also wouldn't easily compare the murder count (which are hardly underreported) and occupation count (which most likely
