That’s some funky code, pagination is much easier than that, unless there’s something else going on.

Is this hyperbole? I really doubt someone can be a SWE for even 2 years and not know what oracle does…

They are doing something wrong. Say what you want about their commercial strategy, the product itself is pretty good. It can definitely do pagination, and I hope they are not doing skip and limit.

It hasn’t been popular? I guess you mean “cool” or “trendy” but well more than half of enterprise applications work on oracle, closer to 75% in fact.

Yes, plenty of companies are exiting oracle but it will still dominate for at least a decade. Sometimes there’s just no good equivalent, and no, Postgres cannot compare even tho it’s a great DB for many use cases.

Lawyers are always in demand!

Give it a honest shot, learn the limits, help your team establishing best practices. Depending on the language, framework and vertical it can be mor e or less autonomous.

It always needs good specs, clear steps, and lots of testing. Some of which can be automated by the AI itself. Make sure you write yourself or strictly review (am besten im vieraugenprinzip) the code that touches anything related to money or safety.

Thinkpads are usually acquired as enterprise retire their stock, 2 or 3 year old devices for a fraction of the new price.

I’d like a definition too, I’m an old dude and don’t get the new fancy words.

Hey, I always do that when it’s used as a noun!

It’s probably because your dumb!!1!

Sigma, at least.

Depends on the country and the party. I won’t stop being friends with someone who disagrees with me about the best way to assure solvency of pensions (even if they support a private scheme), or how to best support transitions to clean energy, whether we should forbid the installation of gas heating or wait for the cost advantage of heatpumps to speak for itself.

In some countries however the discourse is whether some people should be executed on the street or not if they displeased a thug with a gun, or if their choice of sexual partner is not of the liking of the government.

Low birth rates do have a great impact in the pension schemes of countries…

20% of the population is just crazy and will believe in flat earth, young earth, essential oils, Jewish space lasers, 4d trump chess or bevolent ayatollahs.

I imagine some of them are okay with fines, or strongly worded letters.

One step at a time…

Tbh, all locks are horrible in the hands of an experienced picker…
