honestly, who even comes up with these graphics?! More importantly, who looks at it and approves this?

The funny part about this is I travelled all over Mexico and most locals told me that they are scared to travel to the US because there's a high chance they'll be shot. Call it personal experience, but I've felt MUCH safer in CDMX than in any major US city.

This is just depressing to look at from a European perspective....

Another way of looking at this is hiring Technical product managers, aka, folks who have moved to product management from software engineering. This automatically means you have engineers and product managers talking the same language from day one and you don't have to package tech debt as "value propositions". Being software engineers themselves, the PMs at our company usually have a good understanding of when to move slow now (to move fast later), when it's acceptable to apply band aid fixes to keep the ship moving forward or when it's "everything is on fire, this needs a complete rewrite!" time

You pretty much summed up managers that have most of their employees on H1-B in the US. I know multiple managers that offload most of the work to the Asian immigrants on the H1-B visa, have them work 10+ hours a day and know that they can get them to do anything they want, because if they don't, they are scared that they can get fired and have to leave the country. I know multiple friends who silently work on weekends to potentially avoid being fired and leave the country!

I used to have the 5th generation iPod nano that had the scroll wheel and looked like this and I would buy it just for the nostalgia!

This, exactly this. I know so many people who are "above average" developers that I would love to work with because they are nice, collaborative people that are a joy to work with. The biggest problems we've faced are with these so called "10x developers", who do get stuff done, but are a total pain in the a* to deal with!

This probably will never happen, but if they let me run MacOS on the iPad, I'd buy it in a hearbeat.

Agreed. From personal experience, I can tell you that cutting out carbs in favour of protein actually made me lose muscle mass! Once I got my carbs and fats up and averaged around 1g of protein per pound of body weight, I was able to grow and maintain muscle much more effectively. Plus, I did not feel tired all the time, which I most certainly did when I cut out carbs!

I would love to show this to my colleagues, but sadly we don't talk about bruno (/s)

I'm completely agree with this. The people who like to dig deeper usually find structural issues that help you organise your tech debt and keep it maintainable. The other ones usually keep the ship moving forward and the product team happy, applying band-aid fixes where necessary. The key is to ensure that they are talking to each other!

Now they've stopped supporting PWAs in Europe - dark times for web indeed...
