That still doesn't solve the prerequisites being exceedingly rare in most teams. A system solving an issue under rare circumstances is barely worth considering, doubly so if it doesn't solve the issue in your specific…
You might be a decade behind, but there's still diminishing returns kicking in hard even just a few years in. That's disregarding inefficient learning and what else which may close the gap further. Your latter point is…

Consoles aren't going to be obsolete anytime soon while the alternatives, PCs and laptops, are more expensive, worse at the same price range, and provide worse handheld experience. Less of a market share maybe, but…

Only Japan would remotely apply unless you're cheating the system by checking only hotspot cities and trying to claim they are the entirety of their country. Suffice to say, most people don't live near Amsterdam, let…
>If you burn out your employees Burn out in Europe is still omnipresent and rising these days. This includes Germany, the 'chosen child' every proponent points at in these discussions. A few weeks off barely makes a…
Free healthcare is not a given even in well-off EU countries. Besides a 'strong social system' (too vague given the dozen ways each country's system is leaking), the remaining points can be done by anyone who has the…

Sincerely, who gives a flying ** as long as things get done? All I can tell you, having 2 loud conversations going on in an open office almost the entire day is going to mess my performance up far more than taking a 30…
2 hours? It takes a few minutes to bake most lean meats and eggs. Potatoes aren't too difficult to cut and cook. Same for rice. Many vegetables can be eaten raw. All of it can be done in parallel. Who are you talking…
This was a webapp to be used internally in an enclosed system, so yes, modifying the keyboards. Company's own hardware.
Wait until you get asked, by CTOs and business people, to disable F5/refreshing because it breaks the process flow but building a resilient process flow into an old app takes 10x-100x as long. Only for them to realize…
