I'm not that worried about returning to the office. I think most office jobs will be some form of remote work forever. We worked in offices because it's the way we always did it. But we now know we don't have to. It reminds m

Off topic: The pandemic has been wonderful for my gi tract. Constipation driven by office bathrooms problems where a regular concern. I would really try to time bowel movements so that they would happen at home. And would get constipated if

I picture the peak when the moons of Jupiter are full with a thriving civilization. One trillion strong under one government. Building the ships that take humanity to other stars. How small we will look to them.

I can't see the US ever adopting a single payer health care system. However I do think they could adopt a health care justice system. The US cares a lot about justice, and free markets. Some kind of well funded, and empowered FBI syste

The quote here is the main point. "But if you want to engage with 20+ exchanges, to go to market quickly, and implement continuous performance tuning, you'll choose Java." The amount of changes you need to make due to custome

I just wanted to add an another perspective. I had a great private office with a door that closed, and a quiet work environment. My home office is also a nice dedicated room and well equipped. Even in the quietest office noises would get to

Frameworks make hiring a bit easier it's true. I'm amazed at the number of developers who can't seem to cope with working with custom in house frameworks. I'm talking about fully working systems, with full source code an

I think I understand your point. It's more back to the mainframe model of software development. I did this back in the 90s and I never had to think about scaling. Granted these were just simple crud / back-office apps. But I can s

Any developer worth their wage tests. After writing any code I run the program to test the change I have made. I make sure the code is exercised either by logging, debugger, or clear UI change. If it's a browser app I use multiple brow

I feel the change that has happened is that managers _had to_ figure out managing remote workers. Before when remote work was not 'working' you could fall back to in person. That is not currently an option. So management has been

47 here, coding professionally since I was 24. No management, and no plans for it. While ageism exists in some places, I don't find it to be an industry wide problem. At the end of the day programming is just coding the correct if&#x2F
