In my province, it's the same thing. If you want to be a real software engineer, you need to be part of the order of engineers of Quebec. It's all about accountability.

So you can run corporate applications that are tied to windows like teams and outlook and do dev work using containers, docker and such at the same time? I rather run linux containers rather than windows containers, and I can thanks to WSL. Microsoft even recommends using linux based containers.

What? We load Ubuntu directly without doing any workarounds at work for docker development (company is pretty huge and global). nginx works, I guess the only workaround that could apply is running kubernetes or something similar, but the charts work flawlessly.

It's more of an immutable storage solution where one can choose their own storage locations if they want. It's also tamper proof.

Why are your architects, tech leads allowing you to use unapproved languages?

.netcore is open source, so your comment is moot.

Huh?

1) .net framework has not been abandoned, far from it (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/support/policy/dotnet-framework)

Not sure about your logic here. Let us break it down to make it clear:

A democratic country (country being the key word here) had an internal vote to join NATO, just like any other democratic vote a country can decide on.
That vote had no bearing on NATO actually deciding the let them join (which was not going to happen).

So why are they fuckers? A free country voting on things internally, they can do whatever they want. They even get to vote in elections to chose their leaders, imagine that! Why does Russia decide on what happens in a democratic vote held in another country?

AvaloniaUI or Maui and the others I mentioned?

Not sure what you mean about .NET languages missing GUI? Mono/Xamarin have existed for a long while now and Maui is in preview and looks quite promising.

The solution is to switch automatically to another region when one goes down, why don't you do that?

No, you are correct, if you want three or four 9s, you need to have different regions available to kick in automatically if your main region goes down. Like in the old days, you had a load balancer with 2 machines and both go down, do you just give up and say the load balancer didn't do its job?

Learning CICD and the concepts behind it takes less than a week. Once it is in place, pretty much all your projects should follow the same patterns so I don't know why you are complaining about it wasting your time.

Learning security code best practices should be done continuously and applied to each project you work on, it's part of the job. Software development doesn't just encompass the actual coding...security best practices also applies to CICD, data access, cloud architecture, mesh, containers, etc.

Good luck coding your own frameworks like service meshes, orchestration framework, cloud framework, secure data infra like Hashicorp, etc.

Sounds like being a programmer for you is just front-end javascript old school stuff or simple command line scripts.

A car is bought to be driven and used as intended.

This software is bought to be used as a hacking tool....as intended.

Why would you want this? I assume SOLID principals apply to SQL as well...
