In Germany the companies all are crying for specialists aka "Fachkräfte". Interesting is what our "Fachkräfte" are discussing in chats on such messages like in the most admired heise news.
Too make it a short business case: "Who pays peanut, will get monkeys"

As long as a company does not have to waste (!) money on something that does not increase sales, it won't. Yes, it'll be an important topic in the meetings, but it will not materialize during your scrum.

Heed the wisdom of your programming elders, or suffer the consequences of fundamentally flawed code. Just use two bytes for that year field. This isn't going to be in production that long.

Nyuk! Nyuk! That's funny stuff, right there.
I guess because it's true. Who would use software for 100 years?
Most software I don't want to use for 100 seconds.
Where's the update!?!

That implies the customer needs a new release. It will be expensive

Yes, one byte is more than enough!

A U.S. space probe slipped into orbit around Ceres, a miniature planet beyond Mars believed to be left over from the formation of the solar system, NASA said on Friday. I think it prefers 'planet of short stature'

Apple's head of design says in an interview that there are emotional reasons why the iPhone needs regular recharging. "You can never be too rich or too thin."
He's too rich, your phone is too thin, apparently.

I tell that to the customers of my software "You just love the bugs. You just can't wait to start my software and find out what error crashes it this time! Sure, I could fix them for you, but it would take all the adventure out of using my software. What did you say? It doesn't crash all that often? Just wait until the next update! It'll be ehhh... adventurous!"

I'm sure it works better for Apple than it does for you?

But we don't ask for bigger batteries. Smaller batteries that last longer would be ideal.

I thought the same thing. I prefer it to work forever with no battery at all.
Not sure why Apple can't do that. I guess they just have limited thinking over there since Jobs passed.

I just want a thicker phone; other than a taller lens for the camera in one corner, a bigger battery is just the thing that would make the most sense to fill the volume. I'm entirely serious about the first point too; half the reason I went with a (fake??) leather case that doubled the thickness of my phone was to make it easier to hold. Enough extra battery capacity that I could leave my charger home on the weekend, or go without having to find an outlet mid afternoon on the rare days I use my phone extra heavily would be much more useful than a slab of non-edible cow parts.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

I have a Mophie Juice Pack Plus case for my iPhone. Nearly doubles the thickness and fully doubles the battery life. With my normal usage I can get 3+ days between charges.
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.
