Unless it’s a 10-man startup, a typical company doesn’t employ exclusively architects and senior engineers.

By the way, I think it’s quite arrogant to think about this in terms of outsourcing and “we”. “We” might not outsource everything, but there’s a huge market with a lot of potential beyond borders where “we” are located. That’s why I explicitly said:

I don’t think that Java is going to wither away anytime soon, at least on a global scale.

I think that India will be a major factor and there are many Java developers. C-level guys don’t care about programming languages, they do care about cheap labor. So I don’t think that Java is going to wither away anytime soon, at least on a global scale.

I didn’t know that I needed a Pricefield instance until now. But it’s down.

That applies to lightsaber fights too.

Use case: I run a single user instance where I don’t create any of my own communities but I subscribe to and interact with a variety of communities on other instances. By making my instance non-private, everyone on the Internet can browse to it and see every remote community I’ve looked at which seems pretty bad for privacy.

My company laid off a few very efficient workers, who sacrificed a lot of time and mental health for the company, because people working remotely in India are cheaper.

I have to spend time looking at all files, figuring out which keys i haven’t added there

It sounds like a simple bash script could do that for you. Take keys from the English language file, compare against other language files, find missing keys for each language.

Why move from Reddit to a forum?

Sadly, I don’t see the answer to this question. While reddit shares some features with classic forums, these platforms are different. Moving to XenForo, which also requires a quite expensive license, is not the best choice as a reddit replacement.

Can’t ctrl+f a video. People don’t often have good presenting skills, talk slowly or with defects. Text is much easier to navigate, faster to read.

Because no other OS or DE that I use does that and it’s not convenient to jump from one to another. As of the wear, I think it’s marginal. My main file manager is mc anyway.

You’d probably need to configure your router if you want to access your laptop when you’re outside of your home network (e.g. from a mobile phone). If there’s an incoming connection to port 443 (https), your router doesn’t even know which device in the network could handle it. Port forwarding should be easy to set up on any modern router using their web interface. Same applies to some VPS providers like AWS Lightsail, they might have firewalls.

Like with every big task, take it step by step. You can’t learn everything overnight, start with something small. Set up a web server (e.g. nginx) what will act as a reverse proxy. Make it accessible from the internet. Then try to set up one of the services from your list and focus on it.

Learn one thing at a time, don’t rush and avoid context switching.

Finally. Single click to open a file/directory is the first feature that I disable on a fresh system.

winprivacy.de truly rocks.

I enjoy ProtonVPN and other services that come with the premium subscription. Proton Pass with email aliases is a very good addition.

Both were widely used in 2000s too in some part of the world.

My forum was blocked at my work, it had roughly 20 active users.

Also it was very stupid, ineffective and had allies.

It’s extremely easy to do if both the server and client are using wireguard. Just add FwMark = 42 to both interfaces (the exact numeric value doesn’t matter). This way, internet requests will go through the paid VPN provider and local requests will be working too.

If not, good luck with iptables.

People online also say it’s used to detect which controller is in use.

I don’t get it. Any modern game can detect when you connect or disconnect a controller on the fly, in the actual game.

You’re paying for your privacy. Also, a copy of a game or a movie is not a service.
