I have been a software engineer and writing code in one role or another for over 20 years. I do not think any of the code I have written in any of the previous job can be used in the next ones.
I wonder how close the two companies following eachother's footstep that the code could be reused this way.
In my teams there are engineers from all across EU that are working with teams in Dublin. I have no idea what does this mean for those people because for them to be in the office in Berlin means nothing about co-location, and physical proximity to rest of their team.
Sun microsystem disappearing was/is a saddest case of a business failing for me. I wish they have done the correct marketing and partnership back in the time.
