Hey Zeni. That's actually something I was looking into myself as well. I would have been happy to receive free credits for AWS but I assumed I would need to own a company in order to qualify for that. I on the other hand literally just sat down and started working. In any case, thanks for the feedback and if you have any other ideas, feel free to let me know.
Usually you have 3 options :

1. Instructional design and Course authoring. This is where you can build content for clients and companies. Think keywords like SCORM etc

2. Sales/sales engineering: you are technically skilled to sell a complex product that requires technical discussions/implementations. You may have to start as an SDR/AE first.

3. Customer Success/Account Management.

Thank you Four recognizing that

Steak, fish, mayonnaise salads at superior quality, hot dogs accompanied by a Thanksgiving-worthy spread of heaping bowls of condiments,…

We ate raisin bran every single morning almost without fail, although there were a few frosted flakes mixed in mixed in the selection of cereals I guess for competitive incentive.

For us it is docker desktop. Developers use mostly Mac and getting everyone to switch to something else takes time for testing, documentation, roll out etc.
That would be an acceptable answer if we were all wealthy within the same country, but we both know it's not the case. People buy cheap because they can't afford to buy expensive. Putting in 60 dollars in a USB hub is some privileged behavior. Many people just need those prices to be low, because they don't make much, because rent takes away most of what they have, etc. As to why they're not paid much, I'll let you circle back to said companies that keep increasing their margin with cheap chinese products, without ever redistributing that wealth.
You do realize, illegal work environments and unreasonable expectations on developers is "best practices" in software development. As a society we need to end illegal best practices that require developers to work so hard they have physically damaged brain issues from the overwork and stress afterwards.
Yes, that's the obvious cynical interpretation. But our beliefs aligning with our self interest doesn't automatically make us wrong, especially in areas where we have expert knowledge. It could just be that our interest aligns with the general interest.
I enjoy programming things I want to program. Working for X company making their veiled crud app but linking it with 900 different things just sucks the joy out of it.

Working towards becoming a pianist now.

Tutoring prospective students as well remains interesting, provided there’s genuine interest on their part.
How soundproof are your walls?

And how many names are on the deed of this house? Assuming 6 names, what happens if a divorce were to occur?
This is far from being obvious to find out and hardly a scalable MITM.

These are always the same tricks that work in a lab, but then when it comes to do an actual MITM on a web site - there are no solutions.

If my web site is www.example.com, you would need to get very close to the site (network topologically speaking) and insert yourself in the traffic. This is in practice undoable, except if you hack the local network where the web server lives (specifically some equipment) or the server itself.

Or hack the DNS server.

None of these are remotely easy with basic security in place.
Play more, ignore your official goals, do it just for the fun. There are many interesting things to pique your imagination. I bet that's what you were doing when you loved to code.
I find titles not that meaningful since they can have wildly different responsibilities depending on the organization.
They are not "that" high (ok, maybe in total compensation but still)

It's for two main reasons:

- Because American companies have a better sense of what the employees are worth (especially FAANG competition)

- Because Dublin COL is crazy

But outside of FAANG those salaries are not that high
An edict to reduce cloud spending can have perverse consequences in the hands of stakeholders that don't understand the technical requirements of the business. One of the primary reasons for using cloud resources is scalability - the ability to increase your workload when there is work to be done, without up-front capital costs. Having a cap on absolute cost while the business expects jaw-dropping growth in the work outputs defies the laws of physics.

These companies need to think in terms of improved cost efficiency and reduced waste _relative_ to the system throughput. If you incentivize your employees to reduce absolute cost absolutely, you'll lower throughput and build a culture where scaling up is a fearful event. Scaling up should be seen as a triumph - more work = more revenue - unless your business model is a total failure.
You need to find logos. I can be a children or not. Have you every been involved in any volunteering project or movement (not involving coding in isolation), some cause that help other people?
$250k is Sillicon Valley rate. In Europe similarly skilled people earn less than that, typically $80k.
There are 3 problems with that

1. Broadcom, if history is any indication, is about to make VMware much less of a bargain, likely exceeding the cost of the cloud, if not matching it.

2. Often time when a company moves to a cloud model, they lay off the traditional administration staff in favor of "DevOps", many many devops engineers would not have the first clue how to manage the low level infrastructure of Storage SAN, FiberChannel, vLAN's etc... let alone managing vSphere or hyperv, etc..

3. Often times when a company moves to a cloud model they decommission their Onprem Hardware, Lead times right now are crazy still so any org wanted to move to OnPrem quickly is going to be hard pressed to do so.
that's a "non issue" - commercial companies are vendor-locked with cloud on conscious decision so it doesnt matter - they pay for everything (an sometimes multiple times),

and any orgs that treasure open source philosophy either forking or not touching anything of redhat with a long pole.
3 years is a very short depreciation timeline for computers and associated equipment. That's how you ended up finding clouds being cheaper.

Many companies who buy their infrastructure learn that they can run servers for 10+ years if they are properly cooled and maintained. Parts that wear out (fans and disks) are cheaply replaceable.
Nope I have real crisism and the state of crypto after 10 years AND practical case studies like El Salvador shows the issues.

Unfortunate that it's geoblocked it's worth while as she talks to people in El Salvador about crypto. Normal people
Are you confusing podman with containerd perhaps?

Podman is designed to be a developer focused drop-in replacement for docker to use on one's workstation.

It's not possible to use it as a Kubernetes container runtime, there is no CRI for it to work. You can however run Kubernetes style "pods" locally from a pod manifest without a kube-apiserver which is pretty neat.
If true this is potentially very significant as the russian army is heavily dependent on railways for logistics. It's interesting that something as small as ball bearings can create major issues.
(Bin Laden was jailed and then banned from Saudi Arabia, for Zawahiri-like hateful religious blasphemy; and then that became an expense for the United States.)

((EDIT: BBC "Power of Nightmares" (2004) https://g.co/kgs/Egcn8E ; What do neoconservatives and religious fundamentalists have in common? Strange bedfellows indeed. Who just took our money over this? Accept it.)
SSO as a requirement is a reliable way to differenciate small business/ hobbist from commercial usage of your product.

I really don't get at whom this SSO-tax hate is directed at?
I agree, though I think it should be pointed out that that mistake was a deliberate policy choice, not an unforeseen outcome...
I was CTO many years ago, got sort of burnout and then new owner came just when I was at my lowest. Owner and I did not like each other at all. So I quit and went on my own. Since then I design and develop various products. Mostly for clients but also some for my own company. No more burnouts ;) Of course there are always problems here and there but overall I am happy.

I also do at least 2 hours of cardio almost every day and strength exercises with my own body weight. This helps very much both physically and mentally.
Kubernetes mostly.
To cap it all you'll feel guilty for feeling this way in later years when they're gone.
> Can you afford a sabbatical?

I would definitely not want to have no income for half a year (or more). Especially considering the current economic downturn. It would probably stress me out even more.
On top of that, the value for R&D and marketing the real-world demonstrations of these systems provide is immense. Sales of HIMARS are gonna go through the roof, and the next generation will be based on lessons learned against Russia's own current-generation weaponry, not the shitty export versions they give to places like Syria.

The US yelled at Turkey for buying Russian air defense systems because they feared information getting back to Russia on how well they fare against F-35s. That conceptual risk is now very real, but for Russia; the West now knows how to target Russian air defenses with drones, how good Russian counter-battery fire is, etc.
There was a time when this existed in France and was not illegal. I believe that's why the OP was saying "Do you recall the days when..."
One thing to be careful of is what sometimes is mistaken for burnout can be an episode of depression. If so called burnout persists and affects your general life, talk with a doctor.
Love it, but the latency with a Bluetooth headset is a sore point. Probably an inevitability of iOS...
Marriage is a contract. When things so intrinsic to your core are being denied, you absolutely have a right to reconsider that.

Marriage is not some form of slavery. It's painful to have dissolved... But very doable if the situation is bad enough.

Now the problem with op, is that it appears he is depressed and burnt-out, and is transferring the depression to a biological drive for children. To do this would be unhealthy for everyone, including any children they bring in the world.
Really shoddy DRM maybe?
This is only useful if the code is pertinent, you understand what it’s trying to do and there’s clear ip.
Have you tried taking a long break (months, not days/weeks) or did you dial back the hours and keep going?

I've burned out a couple of times and the fix was to stop working and do other things (e.g. travel, music, photography, pottery, sport) until I naturally drifted back to coding. Obviously not an option for a lot of people, but with 14 years of experience maybe you have money in the bank.

Finding enjoyment in work feels like a slightly different topic, I try to find some sort of interesting technical challenge or new learning opportunity in every project - though not just adding unnecessary stuff for the sake of it, of course. I kind of disagree with people who say "get a meaningful job", there aren't nearly enough of those to go around. Redefine "meaningful" instead.
Well who knows. All my stuff is based on the Tensillica and I have no use for RISC V.

But I think they'll make the older cores for years. ESP8266 is widely available...
Just have a kid lol.
Don't know. But a considerable part of "I was trained to take responsibility in serious, perhaps life-threatening situations" overlaps. And I suppose that the chances are that anyone who achieved NCO rank has experience teaching others.
Is there a good ERV design that is suitable for one room, e.g. the ERV equivalent of a window air conditioner?
The same was said about the impact of sanctions on Russia -- the people would revolt. Well, it's been almost a year and they haven't, at least not at levels that the state can't easily suppress.

China can get much further than Russia can in that amount of time.
> You're 40.

> It's not too late.

I second that. A (male) friend of mine was 40 when they had their first child and now they have three.

More importantly: 39 is probably not too late biologically for your partner. A lot has changed over the last 20 years for late births.

Find a doctor who's competent and supportive to help you along, you're not the first people to have children at that age.

Turn your regret into a motivator. I've done a lot of different and exciting things in my life, I've lived on three different continents, worked with some of the smartest and most renowned people in their fields, and yet nothing beats the experience of loving your children.

Good luck.
So I'll take it that you do NOT have any examples of the private sector privatizing a function previously done by the government (in the US) and doing it better/cheaper.... Sounds to me like you've read some Ayn Rand books thought it sounded great, but haven't put forth the effort to imagine how a fictional tale translates to real life. I don't say this as someone who is pro-government. I'd love to see things done better/cheaper. I'm just someone who wants proof not promises...
What are you talking about? I have direct access to buying USD via my Turkish and Russian banks. Rates and comissions are quite reasonable. Of course there are risks right now, especially in Russia, but they are incomparable with risks of putting your money into some virtual bytes someone told you should just work (and we have real life examples of some of them doing quite opposite).
In my experience, everyone should be buying RIs or a Savings Plan, right as soon as they start using instances. At the very least it's an incentive to plan to move to cheaper tech after 3 years. But it also takes at least 3 years for businesses to get serious about trying to save on their spend. And you can change instances or types during that time. Most people don't end up changing anything, though, and wish they had been saving.
Just abolish the food stamps and pay the money directly into people's bank accounts and require banks to issue an ordinary debit card for nothing.
Yes, definitely. Have had terrible burnouts in the past, to the point of not being able to code at all. Recovery is long, and these days I will burn out more quickly if I’m in a stressful situation, but I’ve also made changes so that I am not coding under the wrong conditions and it’s made all the difference.
Reading other comments now and have to agree with them that first you should take some time to stabilize you life, emotionally. Having kids will be a great undertaking (both before they are born and after).

So, talk to your wife, talk to your therapist, and anyone else you trust. Make sure you will be happy with your life, whether you have kids or don't and only then try having them.

Don't forget, that after your kids have grown up, they will go on to live their own lives and it will be just you and your spouse left. So make sure you have a good relationship with her.
It seems like a response. The parent said a source of regret was “I can’t take up new hobbies” and this response was “involve your kids in your hobbies”
SSO is becoming a necessity for small businesses also. If you are involved in audits, you will understand how valuable it is.
I am part of a group of CEOs that meet with a coach to work through company issues, and one of the things they continually drill into us is that employees need to buy into the mission of the company in order to be most effective. The reason they are most effective is that they are happy when working on something that means something to them. So I think it's good advice the other way as well. Find a company with a mission you can get behind, which should help motivate you to excel, and thus have a sense of accomplishment, and ultimately be happier. I think this is different than working on something that overlap with your interests. You might be interested in cars but an auto parts outlet and Tesla have very different missions. Also, if you don't like management, don't be a manager.
YouTube is the distraction!
Yes, they’ll pay the same. There’s no reason to think for most companies that that “same” will be the current Silicon Valley or even Western Europe rate.
Moved to Berlin (from Milan) just 2 weeks ago, would gladly join and have nice drink :)
But for column level permissions views are still needed, right? This isn't the case with hasura. (Of course hasura's approach has own limitations).

> Anyone accessing the generated API endpoint for the chat table will see exactly the rows they should, without our needing custom imperative server-side coding.

That looks like a bad joke. It is imperative, but now in the database. I'm not sure that it is better. Hasura's approach is declarative.

From my point of view, postgres' security model is still not suitable for users. It is more complex, imperative, and therefore more error prone. Hasura's approach is still not perfect, but a combination of postgres and hasura functionality make a huge difference.
You don't need podman-compose, docker-compose is perfectly viable with podman. They've even fixed some long standing bugs/problems lately, so docker-compose v2 can also be used with podman [1].

Yes! Absolutely! (I wish I could elucidate it properly but I 100% get where you’re
coming from and can 100% answer yes.)
Yeah, it's your coworkers/manager — exercise is a requirement (should be required by the company).

Code is code, but if you have a cool manager and coworkers it can make it enjoyable. Particularly, for myself, I liked management that gave me autonomy, trusted me to write a framework without feeling the need to hand-hold.

Exercise breaks (I started out running, switched to walking when I got older) were something I used to feel guilty about — going out for a run/walk in the middle of a work day. I always wanted to be the guy who always had their nose to the grindstone.

As I got older (and more seniority, I suppose) I got over the guilt by just saying fuck 'em, health is more important. In fact though my productivity and ... code fidelity? ... likely improved. Often I left on the 20 minute walk with my head in a programming fog, returned with a succinct plan on how to proceed before the next programming hurdle reared its head.
Disclaimer: I support fully remote work and will likely never be returning to office in my lifetime if I can help it.

Here I play devil's advocate. Even though it is a hypothetical world you've constructed, you still framed it from the perspective of this world.

I can do the same thing you did with a different bias.

Imagine a world where everyone is socially isolated, forced to work 8 hours a day from their living space where they're supposed to be able to retreat from work. They're not allowed to have social in-person contact with any of their peers, but they must login to show activity on their computer every 15 minutes or else be fired.

Then along comes the "office". An amazing centralized place where you can take frequent breaks to have social interaction with your peers. You no longer have to wait for everyone to join the Zoom call and turn on their cameras and ask "Can you see my screen?" — you all can just look at the same whiteboard in the same room! Need to get in touch with Bill? Just stroll over to his desk. No need to ping him and wait for a response. We'll even feed you for free, and you can play ping-pong on your breaks! You won't have to bother furnishing your home office with a standing desk and complicated technology setups. We handle all of that for you, and even have in-house IT staff to fix any issues that pop up.

It all doesn't sound so bad when you frame it differently (which is what the middle managers try to do). Again, I don't really believe these arguments, I'm just pointing out that the way you framed yours can easily be done by someone with a competing view.
> Hire one person to buy, configure, manage hardware is what?

This point gets raised every single time bare-metal comes up for discussion and at this point I'm not sure if people are legitimately unaware or if there are hidden agendas at play.

There are plenty of providers out there who will handle the logistics for you with an interface similar to AWS EC2 - ask for server and get SSH access in minutes/days/weeks (depending if it's an off-the-shelf or custom build).

From there, your existing DevOps guy (which you must have to navigate AWS' complexity) can take over.

It's only at either extremely large scale or very unusual requirements that managing your own hardware makes sense. Until then, you will never be able to beat the economies of scale of managed bare-metal providers.
When my father worked for Republic Steel (1958-1969) it had a very strong safety culture.
I don't really think you can aka burnout with get bored). What I experienced was losing self control, being amazed how uncooperative one's brain can be, inability to get anything done even when trying to the max to get something done. Then being amazed by one's uselessness. It is like living in debilitating pain without the actual pain.

What I think it actually was - strong negative emotions. About the tools, about the organization, about the tasks. And these emotions only got stronger over time and could not be rationalized away.

And looking back, quitting and looking for things I still like was the only solution. Need a certain percentage of work to be exceptional match with what I like to do.
> I don't think most of these people are into cryptocurrencies specifically.

They are? Especially the creator of Algorand (a cryptocurrency) Silvio Micali. In his CV [0]

> "Scientific Interests, Cryptocurrencies, Blockchains"

At the bottom of his CV:

> "Technology Transfer: Algorand, Founder and Inventor of the Core Technology"

If that is not 'into' cryptocurrencies, then I don't know what is.

My point is it's a collective concern too. Because without coordinating all prices globally there will be variance in costs of living. Which could price out lower valued jobs from certain areas entirely.
nonmeasurable sets
What place on the Internet isn’t a Market? Even hacker news is a Market of ideas. (The speech recognition automatically capitalized market)

How will we be immunized against this influx of cheaply generated rhetoric? What is the paradigm, what are the tools – technical or otherwise – that will act as white blood cells defending against infection.?
> Contracts (and software licences) cannot override the law

I never said they could.

> If a government wants to ban self-generated keys (and/or make anti-Tivoization clauses unenforceable), then it can easily do so

Wrong. That would require abandoning copyright enforcement.

Tivoization breaches the GPL. When a license is in breach, integrators, developers and users have no right to use such software.
