Really? So soon? Can you be more explicit?

This is exactly what happened to Lightwave (a revolutionary 3D animation software). Management refused to allow the engineers to address pressing concerns so the chief engineer left to create another company whose products modo has now eclipsed Lightwave https://youtu.be/DiOX-D2B8LE

Made redundant last week. Company scrapped the project I was working on in order to cut costs. Industry FinTech

We put a kitchen Aid blender on our wedding list almost 4 years ago. It's costly but rock solid, near if not industrial grade. I only wish I'd bought one years ago instead of buying and disposing of cheaper brands that don't last. (Penny-wise pound foolish I was.)

According to American Society of Mechanical Engineers one reason Germany has kept is industrial base are the Fraunhofer Institutes you will find all over the country right next to universities doing essentially free R&D in almost every area of technology for companies that might otherwise not be able to afford them. (I had a student assistant job at one such institute when I was an MSc student in Germany)

I hope IBM is considering a similar suit against Oracle for their implementation of SQL.

Some mods are ridiculous. The profile of one tag maintainer for example read thus (paraphrased) "X is now a mature technology and all the meaningful questions have been asked so I spend most of my time editing and deleting questions".

ALL my questions got downvoted. So I stopped asking questions under that tag.

Typical medium article. Scant and clickbaity (fell for it this time).

Is there a way to block all medium articles from my feed?

Stock options in the UK are a near fraud. Your a ability to excercise them is contingent on an exercise window opening at the next funding round (a long time) and you lose said options on your last day of employment. Unscrupulous management trying to claw back options can force employees out.

I do not take stock options in UK companies seriously and neither should you.

Sadly this is true in my current and previous jobs.

I worked and have worked with people who know very little or do very little yet but have mastered the art of hobnobbing and have fared a lot better than yours truly who'd rather put his head down and get the work done.

> US does corporate espionage to favor domestic companies, and creating a new plane is such a big project that there's no way to miss that.

Pardon my ignorance but I thought the Chinese government was the one doing this sort of thing. Surely the US government does not engage in espionage on behalf of it's companies

Blender would give Maya a real run for its money if it had an API.

As someone with a phobia for snakes I don't appreciate seeing such recommendations in my feed. I have clicked on not interested so many times but another snake video inevitably finds its way into my feed.

BTW, how about STOP SHOWING ME GRAMMERLY ADS!!!

Being called a coder.

It's one of my pet peeves.

WinXP is still very much alive in the retail sector. Retailers are extremely sensitive about migrating their systems.
