This is anecdotal, but I had a positive experience with the lack of privacy recently. I bought a baby stroller, after doing the typical research and finding a used model, I ended up buying a new one from some babyshop. All the pictures had

I wonder what the author means when he says “ classical polymorphic OOP”. In my experience, subtyping is the absolute worst part of OOP. More so in an enterprise setting, where after two decades, you end up with some really mutated weird as

I live in Denmark, where we lift a lot of the burden of civilisation together, to give everyone access to education, health/elderly/child care as well as a solid security system for those who get unemployed. And here society is ha

I work in the public sector of Europe. One of the primary reasons that we prefer Azure and AWS to google cloud is support. When things go really wrong on our office365 platform or any part of Azure, Seattle will call us on the the hour with

I think there has been a steady reduction in the required IT personal needed to do a lot of things. Need a web-page/web-store? You buy a standard product for almost no money, and you don’t really need anyone to run it for you. 25 years

When do you need to drop a column in a production DB? Maybe my anecdotal bubble is about to burst, but I work in the public sector, and have for a while and on our 200 different production DBs behind around 300 systems we’ve never dropped a

I really wish a lot of things started with the conclusion or TLDR. I have ADHD and I have issues reading to the end of an email without skipping and quitting before the end. I mean, I know there is a certain way to write research articles a

Well, what would stop them from doing that anyway? Look at Poland or Turkey, it’s not like a constitution is going to save a democracy.

I always found America’s grips on these things a tad weird. In my country you’re accountable to print the truth, and if you don’t, it comes with fines or even prison time. Because lying to the public is dangerous. That hasn’t stopped opinio

Not necessarily, but if you can justify one thing for yourself then it should help you understand why other people behave similarly. Whether buying hardware or working for google is worse is another debate, but you should be able to see why

How do you buy hardware? I’m genuinely asking because where I live it’s impossible to buy stuff that wasn’t made in China. It’s almost impossible to lead en ethical life in this day and age if you do anything related to tech.

I think they are choosing react native because they genuinely like react. I don’t remember which video it was exactly, but one of the higher ups talked about future technologies within Microsoft and how they were doing more and more GUI-bas

I work for a city, I think you can be pretty certain that they are doing both. Hell, the team that’s working on unemployment benefits probably didn’t hear about this project before they read about it here on HN.

We’ve gone from using four or five different team/project management SaaS tools to using what’s coming with our already purchased office365 for business subscriptions. I know it’s anecdotal, and while it’s certainly great for us, it’s

Really? I really like it. I almost solely use Facebook to organise blood bowl matches, so it’s a lot of group chats and events, and it’s so much better than the old design. I haven’t noticed it being slower either, it’s certainly not fast,

This was my thoughts going into it, unfortunately a static ip turned out to cost around the same where I live. :(

This is the issue. The “no-code” + “no real oversight” tools don’t really work for us, but we wish they did. ;)

I’m Danish and I work in the public sector, so factor that into my anecdotal experience. We would take it serious, some people get into high positions quickly. We would ask you about it out of interest and we would also ask you about why yo

I’d probably pick the new iPhone SE. Unless you have something personal against using Apple products it seems like the perfect fit for what you want at a decent price point.

We operate 300ish IT systems of various size, from handling vacation time between leaders/employees to full fledged SAP solutions. We have 10,000 employees but only 5 developers of which 2 are also operations engineers developers. If a

Yes, as an example we can run docker (for windows) on our own VMs or (all) in our Azure setup.

If they actually worked they might not be so bad. I’ve never gotten my otherwise beloved mx3s to do one single thing I wanted them to do while using the touch controls, but I can see how pausing a song, adjusting volume or forwarding might

I work in the digitalisation department of a danish city. We have a couple of running processes. Mainly for paying already approved bills and benefits through different systems. Which aren’t only web based. But we had/have an intention

As someone who implemented and runs RPA in the public sector I would be interested if you made a couple of things come true. No one offers an easy way to let employees build and share “personal” bots. Part of this has to do with non-program

I think the resale value is Apples real strength. When I upgraded my 2016 13” mbp to the new airbook, Apple offered 60-70% of the airbook cost in return for the mbp. Because tech-wise there are just so many hood options. I ended up selling

Why do you think it’s a silly reason? I don’t want to spend a lot of hours every day working with something I genuinely dislike. Don’t get me wrong, I know I’m fortunate enough since I get to pick and chose, but the time we spend on project

I’ve turned down job offers I was interested in from companies because I found out they use the atlassian stuff, that’s how much I dislike it. I wonder if I’m the only one.

Doesn’t the react tutorial end after what’s basically a hello world project? Some people prefer a lot more guidance than that.

Denmark has a long term plan, which requires a sharp lockdown at first to make sure hospitals weren’t overrun, and to buy time to get our own production of protection gear and testing kits going. We’re currently entering stage two of the pl
