I have read it. I know what liquidity trap is. That's not the problem. It's incentives. Incentives matter and people in western countries are not incentivized to have children and money isn't all that matters. People…
Of course it's a Ponzi scheme since it promotes freeloading. People without children also expect to receive pension while escaping the effort and time to raise the next generation. When you did this at family level the…
It's hard to explain people in US but in Central Europe Java is like 70% of software jobs, the rest is Node and .Net and everything else is really niche outside of their domains.
Well not million but 500-600k sure.
Visual Studio Code is fast on startup and that's it. It chokes on million LOC project while Eclipse and Intellij work fine.
USA in 1945 was 91% white so it kinda makes sense that government did it. Homogeneous countries have no political issues with welfare because everyone is alike.
First comment is good: Always appreciate your insights Patrick, but you are completely off base here. USA has far fewer working age combat veterans now than it did in the 1950s through 1980s, and violence isn't anywhere…
This kind of migrations were non preventable before but now we have enough resources and technology to build walls and surveillance to block them entirely. Unfortunately, the only thing that is missing is will to do so.
Yes, English had crazy fertility rate. At the begining of the Hundred Years’ War France had population of 17 million and Britain(excluding Ireland) had 4 million. By the time of Napoleonic wars Britain(with Ireland) had…
USA spends very little money on military as a percentage of GDP while being the most powerful force in history. I would argue that that money is very well spent.
There are two tools nobody mentioned yet. DbVisualizer -> best GUI for databases, you learn it well and use for all databases Editpad -> fastest text editor I’ve ever seen with bunch of useful features and terrific…
Funny thing about corruption...It's very hard to quantify and as someone who spent couple of years living in China I would say there is no link between corruption and economic growth.
Yes, I would actually argue that developers earn more than they would in Germany, Belgium or France.
I don't have a lot of experience with Oracle but I can tell you that Postgres optimizer is shit compared to Db2 zOS or Db2 LUW. When I worked in a large bank we tried to migrate core system from Db2 zOS to Postgres and…
To be fair I think only Postgres has that feature.
I still go with Groovy for scripting and tests with Spock. Scripting is better because Kotlin doesn't have simple dependency management like Grape and compilation speed is way faster than Kotlin's. One of Kotlin's…
Well of course but Javascript is in unique position to do those kind of things, other languages have to be careful not to alienate its communities.
Yes, it's exactly the same with me, I simply do not like tall keys. The one thing I did like in mechs is abundance of layouts that came about. I got Mx Keys and it's very good but!!! * escape key is doubled in size so…
the thing is alot of Cavaliers escaped to Virginia and during the Restoration Presbyterians and Independents fled to New England. New England, with its Puritan settlement, had supported the Commonwealth and the…
because every Maven project is more or less same while Gradle projects vary drastically...I don't know how anyone can tolerate Gradle and performance benefit is not that great...
I can't believe nobody mentioned DbVisualizer. It's by far the best db tool and it works with bunch of them. Advanced Query Tool is also good but it's geared more for BA than DBA. Aqua Data Studio is also very good but…
Yes, that's another abnormal labor market. I'm from Croatia, but I've seen similar things with colleagues from eastern and central Europe. IT salaries here are much better than western Europe compared to other…
