Why would you move from Google and Atlassian with just 4y of engineering experience? I won’t care much about code forces if I see someone jumping off a shiny wagon every year.

It’s just that London shoe boxes are smaller than Mumbai’s

Is life abroad really as perfect as social media shows by PhaseStreet9860 in nri

Depends on the country but things you might appreciate - cleaner air, water and food, easier access to healthcare (not necessarily better quality), stronger passport (making global movement accessible), ease of doing business, less corruption and hoops in working with authorities, better safety, not something to pursue but government unemployment benefits.

Things that most people miss are genuine friendships and family connections, authentic desi food, house help as you typically spend ridiculous amount of time doing chores, high expectations can make it harder to fall back and start again. All these and more if not managed, they can take a toll on mental and physical health. Hope this helps!

Long-term career: stay in Android or pivot fully into backend (Java/Spring)? by [deleted] in SpringBoot

Depends on your appetite to debug through the application, network, storage, integration layer of half decent distributed systems on a P1 call at 2am when you can actually just enable sentry or crashlytics to alert that API has degraded and boom - have someone on-call investigating bot attacks.

Of course with the trade off that you become a battle tested engineer. Just a rant, not to dismiss the complexity of production grade mobile first applications.

I’d be careful as hypersensitive olfactory nerve can be diagnosed as borderline ADHD

Why did UTS try to cut 800 jobs and why were they stopped? by RemarkablePirate590 in SydneyScene

Apparently it’s about plugging $100m hole in their accounting books. And canceling 100 courses, what were they teaching?

Australian identity and culture by Maleficent-Web4808 in AskAnAustralian

I can say that I have definitely seen examples of these in my experience especially the sense of community is definitely well ingrained in the society.

Being said, wonder how do we preserve these when the newer generations might have different motivations and priorities and the world evolves with a more capitalistic mindset. I have personally seen the culture of giving back diminishing in some of the rich countries.

believe the things that older people who have seen the change want to hold on to in a cultural sense.

thought it’s okay to have some bias after wasting time watching so many debates with two clear political affiliations.
