100% agree.. Home ownership sort of sucks in some ways..

I like to go home and not worry about the plumbing, or grass, or if the rain was going to impact the solar panels.

Now when I owned my first place, I spent my weekends putting in new floors. I painted every room, and helped redo the plumbing. Months of lost weekends, and about 15k...

So when we sold I was rather happy. We got 30k over what we paid. Then the agent after 2 days work took his 17k slice off the price. And so now that 30k was down to 13. So weeks and months of work and net profit - 2k.

My Parents were also in 50's.

Yeah.. this

VS code competes 100% with Atom. MS vs MS.

People who say things like this should be required to read 1984 before they're allowed to post again.

People who say "I have nothing to hide" should be required to post a video of themselves going to the bathroom, along with their bank statement, and facebook/email password.

I for one love Heroku.

As a dev, the last thing I want to do is solve a solved problem. Building a docker image to allow me to red-green deploy sounds about as exciting as writing an XML parser.

As someone who pays for dev time. I can spend > 100k for an ops expert, or pay a small fraction of that to have something like Heroku handle it for me. They do updates, I don't care. 200$ a month and I'm cooking with gas.

What I remember of RIM, is they took some guys code. He innovated, and they took it. He told them, and just asked for a mention in the authors page. A quick thanks mate. I'd suspect it would help him land future jobs, and be fun to talk about.

They rejected it. He died and his estate sold the rights. Then BB got sued. They should have been sued, and deserved what they got. Don't steal from devs

God help your kid when they are under performing at work.

Oh.. you failed to learn to read and write. Well no grades. Good luck on your Jib Hunt. Hope you have someone help you rite you're rezuma.

Grades are a measure of understanding VS expectations. If my kid is struggling with a topic, then I can hire tutors, or just sit with them and work through things.

You can't fix what you can't measure.

Teaching kids is the schools job, but it's my job too. I'd argue it's more my job than their job. I'm the CEO of my kids education. If they are falling it's on me to help them.

If I don't know there's a problem, how can I help.

Lost me at Which of the following agile method are you using?

TDD is not a method of agile. It has nothing to do with project management or team structure. On a rails/elixir team you TDD as a reflex.

Release cycle is many times a day. On a team of 20 devs, we're releasing to prod about 12 times a day.

The idea of Projects keeps coming up. Often projects are 1 or 2 day features. Customers don't feedback in a day or two long feature.

Then we A/B test the feature, and if it improves the metrics, we move on.

...

Ahh... I see what you did here.

These projects are desk or mobile apps. Clear release cycles and manuals. Web dev's deliver many times a day. There is no major and minor version management in most places. In fact many places have different teams delivering different features on one app at the same time.

"You take the necessary time to document the changes you made to make them traceable, even in crunch time." -> GIT takes care of this, and has been for well over 10 years now. No dev company would go without git or like.

My rails app has really nice HTML and CSS. All the class names are logical and lovely to code in.

My rails app takes that lovely HTML and CSS, and (in the middleware) it makes it look really ugly. It removes all the sugar, white space, newlines and SCSS niceness. It replaces all the lovely class names with numbered class (c1, c2...). It removes unused classes from the CSS.

So... it's well programmed, and very ugly when viewed by the user. It's smaller and semantically correct, but reading it client side is not really possible for a human, or a scraper (because the class names change)

Now the ugly HTML/CSS is displayed rather nicely, so the end results are (to the user) nice.

Not just open source.

I mean technically speaking every post, put and patch operation is an upload. It might be JSON (these days) but they are still data being uploaded.

I use Kafka, and the data I upload there is raw binary (formatted through schemas).

This could only be proposed by an idiot.
