I don't understand where the author got the idea that git was production ready in 10 days... Let's look at git history:

  • Official development started on 03.04.2005.
  • Git could self host on 07.04.2005.
  • Git achieved Torvald's performance goals on 29.04.2005.
  • On 16.06.2005 git was used to release the Linux kernel for the first time. That can be considered the first beta release, which achieved its goals, but wasn't production ready yet.
  • Production ready v1.0 was released on 21.12.2005. That's waaaaaaaay longer than 10 days.

No good software is released in 10 days.

A lot of Russians who are against Putin's regime moved to the US. The trend started back in 2014. I guess there will be a lot more deportations now...

One of the rules of creating a good database is to never delete any data.

Most info screens these days are powered by a browser, even dot matrix screens. The browsers have all the graphical tools built in to create any kind of UI and they support any screen size and resolution. Creating all of that yourself is a waste of time, money and energy (read more pollution). And browsers can run on very low end hardware without any issues. First iPhone and Android phones were super under powered, yet came with a fully functional browsers.

Well, to be fair, modern lamplighters in London are not low skilled employees, they're highly skilled and well paid engineers. So it did work out quite well for them

You should see how Italians debate their own food when two of them are from two different towns. It's bloody epic!
