Maybe i'm just in a bubble but none of those Docker Desktop replacements work well on a locked down corporate laptop. Sure you can get it to work somehow, manually configuring proxies, dns and stuff. Docker Desktop somehow just works. Thats why we pay for it.
The Problem with SSPL is, it triggers at runtime. Most OpenSource Licensens trigger at compile time. GPL ... you pull in GPL Code, compile it, your code becomes GPL. SSPL? Triggers at runtime if you run it as a SaaS, not really making clear what counts as SaaS, not really making clear what counts as a third party, etc. Thats the reason it should NOT be recognized as a open source license.
yeah, wage adjustment will bring inflation out of control. Not the tax breaks for companies, not the 2 trillion dollar stock market bailout in 2020. It's the people getting a 2 dollar wage increase thats driving the inflation. /s
while i understand your sentiment, over the last few years java became a lot less oracle-centric. JavaEE moved to Eclipse Foundation, openjdk became a reliable open source alternative to the oracle version, a lot more companies are involved in the development process. yeah, oracle still provides a lot of manpower but it moves in an overall positive direction.
its not just the best ones. If you remove people from the grind for 1-2 days a week, give them a small budget and enough autonomy to do what they want, most people will fix shit that bugged them for a long time.
The main problem is how micromanage-y the current development processes are. Everything has to be a ticket/user story and has to be planned and approved by some people that never even wrote a single line of code. Everything has to have some immediate business impact. I even see scrum teams measuring for team utilization now. target is 90% atm and they wonder why productivity is down.
You're not wrong. I mentor some juniors and the ability to talk to a specific target audience about a topic is the most important skill a dev can have. I can teach you the tech stack, but i cant teach you how to talk to the business people or the finance department. "I need budget to rewrite that app in rust" will get you a no from the finance guys most of the time. Tell them that it would reduce your current infrastructure cost by 10% (or whatever you want to achieve) and they might say yes.
JAMStack is the fancy term netlify introduced.
Most of the time its just a static site generator like gohugo.io with a bit js and apis sprinkled into. So instead of rendering the page at request time, its rendered before deployment, deployed as static html with the js part managing the dynamic parts like stripe, apis, etc.
I think its the google centric view of the article. All the perks google offer in their offices are tools to keep you in the office longer. Stay for the Gym, stay for Dinner or come in early for lunch. Considering that its naturally that they expect your social circle to be mostly other google employees.
Agile is cool if you have no dependencies. If you have to tie into some 15yo legacy system with a static release cycle its not so agile anymore.
Same with CD and microservices. I cant count how many times i had a requirement "dont deploy to prod before x.y.z" because thats when the required changes on some old system would go live. And even then you need approval of like three different departments...
Simply make them pay for it. Tell them you come in if they pay for travel expenses, at least two nights in a hotel and your travel time counts as overtime or something like that. Push the boundary a little and see how they react. This way both parties have to invest and they will make sure to not call you into the office if it is avoidable.
for static sites to take off, they need a comparable usability to wordpress. currently there is to much technical friction for the common user. no wysiwyg editors for posts/pages, no point and click customization for layouts, no easy asset management, the requirement for git and a build environment.
Oh boy you have no idea how horrible it is.
Check out the latest rulings in that regard. Google Fonts is a big no now.
Everything that "transmits PII (including your IP address)" is problematic.
Its just a matter of time until all those free static site hosters (github/gitlab pages, netlify, etc) are targeted, cloudflare probably too. Our legal council already told us to "at least add some notification that people are leaving the site" if they click on the social login buttons ... because it could be considered transmission of the IP because of the redirect.
its not only about food, shelter and entertainment, its about perspective. if you have to slave away for another 40 years, living paycheck to paycheck, can barely afford a family, a revolution in whatever form it comes might sound good. Check out the Strike at Kellogs, 80h/week, 16h Shifts for barely any money and the Company just wants to fire the striking employees. You can only press so much productivity out of people until they push back and i think we can see that this pushback is starting...
Same for me and even if you have notes you will get "thats not what i said", "thats not how i remember it", etc.
