Everyone involved had simply grossly underestimated the challenge of carrying out computer operations in space. So much for my idea of filling a rocket with iPhones

More than any other industry, technology companies prioritize ethical issues important to most Americans, according to a study released Tuesday from Forbes and the non-profit research group Just Capital. How the times have changed
I agree on Facebook, though

Ethic was removed of the list of skills of big players in this branch long time ago. There is only "shine" left, and that is done by the marketing and public relationships departments (maybe legal too). And in some companies those are even bigger than the architecture and development departments

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Microsoft would not be nowhere near the top of my list of most ethical companies. I would them down near the bottom with Facialbook.

When mapping out your development career plan, it's important to consider how the specific skill sets that a developer needs have changed. Good thing my career is over as I still think I need these
taaaaa-dah!

That was a pretty ignorant and biased article. Everyone of the skills mentioned are needed if you want to become more than a run-of-the-mill programmer. Even as a web dev (at whom this article seems to be aimed at), you need to have these skills if you want to be a top-notch programmer.
Grrr. What an EYE-DEE-TEN-TEE!

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Nicely stated. It has become the newest entry in my collection of quotations, although slightly modified.

I'll weigh in on the local development environment point.
I work on a huge legacy codebase and without a local development environment I would not be able to do my work.

Whew. I wish I didn't have to deal with setting up dev environments (kiss a day goodbye if i have to start on a new project type) or dealing with packaging (my job for the last few months has been all about trying to figure out how to get our stuff to run in Docker/k8s).

It's attitudes like those in the article which make too much software crap.
