fyi the article layout is a bit wanky in chrome and mozilla. However, Safari doesn't have this problem

That's very harsh. If it were a bunch of cobbled together perl and bash scripts I could understand poopooing the software stack, but java for enterprise accounting software is a super common stack and arguably one of the most suitable solution for this type of software.
Or Kotlin. People usually complain about JVM but lots of enterprise software runs on it. Spring boot ecosystem provides lots ready to use libraries. Kotlin can be much easier to use compared to Java.
Yes Go can be better language now, but still lacks lots of library and API support. And Rust, I'd rather code in jvm language fast and ship it fast than building up whole infrastructure that takes way more time to implement.
I got laid off a few years ago and I immediately bought a plane ticket to Spain to do the Camino de Santiago for a month. Ended up staying almost 3 months.
Of course I was lucky that I was single, in tech, w/ a high(er) salary that allowed me to do that, but it was a positively, life-changing turning point for me.
Since then, I've never re-joined the grind of FTE.
Do you do contracting jobs or freelancing?

Is this a new type of Jinja?
do you make hybrid mobile apps? What frameworks do you use for mobile apps?
Go to south west Turkey. Several kite surfing towns, food is very similar to Greek, people are super friendly, weather is fantastic. Internet is good enough. Finally, 1K USD a month is equivalent to a local mid-level engineer net salary.
Eastern part is cheaper and less crowded.
I'm a CS associate professor. I teach a course which consists in contributing to a free software, in third year at my uni. A few years ago a couple of students decided to make a contribution to GNU ls. The change was to have the output color independent of capitalisation (it is based on filename extension). Their code was accepted. It was a tiny tiny contribution, but it's probable that these few lines of code are and will be executed a few thousands times more than all other contributions my other students made.
That the best way of teaching CS! Bravo! I wish the US professors have the same attitude like yours.
I'm still figuring out Hugo, so I'm not sure I can fix it right away, but I'll take a look.
