I work on a payment system that invoices consumers on behalf of other companies and pays out the money to these companies by splitting the payout on multiple partners (luckily I do not handle the support and follow-up).…
Interesting approach. I have some coleagues that actually remote desktops to their powerful desktop computer. I never did that because I fear all the tiny issues I have to deal with, but they tell me it works quite…
I think it is quite common. I develop financial systems, and I compile apps regularly for running tests locally and large parts of the system is running locally using docker compose. This has the benefit of fast…
I might have misunderstood the scope of the idempotency layer, I thought it was this thin layer close to the web server that just replays the last answer from the services that are lower down. So that means stripe…

I can absolutely see that there are many cases where the code is not run many times or the dataset is dirty and that types actually get in the way. As a example, I cannot stand using stuff like VSCode with lsp because…
That makes a lot of sense. And I think the lack of teaching technique has to do with the broad variety of programming tasks. Techiques are way too specific to the domain and we won’t see more of it in school until…
Very true, but there is a gradient there. I have an example of the opposite extreme. A few years ago I worked with a person who would rather continue working in php 5.3 than start using Scala, which was hot at the time.…
That makes perfect sense actually, thank you for taking the time to answer. And I’m indeed a SW eng with a degree, so spot on. I do something similar to data analysis «for fun»/non professinally but my day job is…
Great! I am so glad more people see types as a useful tool. Personally I see it as essential, so I struggle to understand the mind set of people who do not want to use them. I understand that people think it feels like…
