Denial on what is actually happening is rampant at the moment. When in weeks, months, and years the consequences of these actions maybe, maybe, it will be acknowledged, though the pattern has been so far scapegoating the 'other'.
In our B2B space there are tons of custom business rules. For example, you place orders per manufacturer and each manufacturer has its own minimum and reorder amounts and reqs on an order, promotions, business rules, etc. This is for business that have been around 25-30 years.
We did an evaluation on several out of the box ecommerce solutions and none of them were able to meet the requirements that absolutely had to be there. Shopify flat out said no, they can't help us, etc.
Working remote for 10+ years and as a manager of software developers and developing myself, not sure I would see working remote or in house makes any difference on what processes you use.
The processes you use, or try to use, are limited by the culture of management that work above and around you in other departments. Changing that culture to be accepting of the nature of software development is difficult, particularly in my case where we are interacting with non technically-minded people who are prone to make decisions based on their emotions and/or their own motivations regarding office politics.
Milk allergies are different from being lactose intolerant. I developed a mild allergy to dairy in my 30 or so - or so it was discovered then. With lactose intolerance, you can at least take a pill - not so much for an actual allergy. My one child has a much more severe dairy allergy and will get a very upset stomach even with a little dairy.
We both have our appendix.
Though to your point, whether you can develop a milk allergy later in life I am not sure.
It depends. I had Hodgkin's Lymphoma and had chemo for about 5 months over a year ago. Everyone reacts differently as some have various symptoms that can be worse or better than others. Some people are miserable in bed while others it not so bad and tolerable. It can also vary on the type of chemo treatment you are receiving.
This, we have been working remotely for almost 10 years. You can be as effective as in the office and even better, but it also depends on the type of work you do.
Been working 12+ years remotely in a company that has been doing it even longer in some departments. It works and you can get around all the complaints no problem. I understand some people prefer to work in an office and I understand it also depends on the type of business you are it. I get that but people also need to remember times change.
I've been doing this 15 years and I've been dealing with second guessing or managers acting like we don't know what we are doing the whole time. The problem being the managers are MBAs who know little or next to nothing about software development. They don't like being told differently from whatever narrative they come up with and primarily solely focus on cost.
The company I work for considers themself a MSP. The parent company is a sales company selling non software products.
"AECL never publicly released the source code, but several experts including [Nancy Leveson] did obtain access for the investigation. What they found was shocking. The software appeared to have been written by a programmer with little experience coding for real-time systems. There were few comments, and no proof that any timing analysis had been performed. According to AECL, a single programmer had written the software based upon the Therac-6 and 20 code. However, this programmer no longer worked for the company, and could not be found.'
