> As it stands, in Los Angeles, median one-bedroom seems to be about $2,362/month, and a minimum wage job there, before taxes only pays $2,462 per month.
Never been to Los Angeles so correct me if I'm wrong but is Los Angeles a small town or is a massive, sought-after city with a ~4 million population and ~18 million greater-area population?
> But this fantasy scenario is really quite unlikely
Based on what exactly. The delta variant was unlikely. The COVID-19 was unlikely. I think I'll back governments taking precautions against the possible rather than somebody thinking it's a fantasy(def: the faculty or activity of imagining impossible or improbable things) scenario, ignoring the last 18 months of world life.
Basically speeding and being mouthy in bars, sometimes leading to parking lot fights. But that was early, young, and they basically used that to harass him continually.
Let me know when you can do proper software engineering, with unit/integration tests and deterministic performance testing/scaling on them.
A previous company forced devs to switch/add a no/low-code tool. We were given 3 to evaluate: dell boomi/mulesoft/some other crap.
Most devs were gone within 6 months of that mandate coming in to effect.
Horrible, immature, limiting tools.
Do you think the A team devs are building these no-code tools after their initial prototype? No, they're being farmed out to design and development by middling product managers and devs - which never ends well.
Rational non-technical business users are exactly the reason we need open source tooling.
What rational person would build the foundation of their business on a closed source, proprietary web development framework? Only the less experienced or less than rational would choose this setup. We have decades of evidence that companies that develop these will inevitably:
1. Not support the use cases your business needs as you grow, despite your pleas.
2. End support for a necessary feature that you need. If you're lucky, you can continue to operate on an older version or a fork. But then you don't get any new functionality going forward.
3. Simply charge you more.
4. Go out of business.
There is a niche in exploiting the naivete of such business owners. That doesn't seem to be the goal of Budibase given that you can always pick up where they leave off in any of the above scenarios.
Anything about making their workplace less coder hostile?
Open plan office - great for sales, HR, marketing and reassuring insecure managers/leaders/CEOs they have worth - not so great for people who need to concentrate hard to solve hard problems and write good code.
clickbait nonsense headline. article even contains the truth:
> In collaboration with local telecommunication companies, people were sent from door to door to physically unplug the infected routers and put them out of commission.
> it's a piss take of Irish country life and a very affectionate one. I grew up in Belfast, spent a lot of time visiting relatives on farms in Donegal.
The cup of tea thing isn't a rural Irish phenomenon. It's a widespread thing that would happen in pretty much every house in every (at least ROI) Irish rural/village/town/city.
