Recently, our industry’s lack of care for efficiency, simplicity, and excellence started really getting to me, to the point of me getting depressed by my own career and IT in general. Evergreen article: Things aren't as good as they were in the old days

Many of his complaints are valid. However, he ignores the parts of the software world where performance and small size are competitive advantages - the firmware world.

Online gaming behavior can encourage gamers to gain a variety of soft skills which could assist them with training to support their career aspirations, according to new research from the University of Surrey. Frag your opponents for a promotion?
Soft skills: yelling slurs at team mates, yelling slurs at opponents, throwing controllers across the room

More soft skills: silently crawl upon you opponents and stab them in the back, planning traps on everyone's way to ensure your success

Honestly since I started playing Final Fantasy XIV I became a better driver. It trained me to keep track of multiple things at the same time better than I used to and got me a better hand coordination.
This has been for me the first real online game apart from Warframe, which sucks because it's too frantic and chaotic to actually be useful as training.

Cornell University researchers have created an interface that allows users to handwrite and sketch within computer code—a challenge to conventional coding, which typically relies on typing. Is that a quicksort, or a moose?

This, combined with no-code platforms, will usher in the age of the average Joe being able to develop software.
The difficult we do right away...

It's about small teams, microservices, bias towards serverless, and having the creator of Java on standby I'm guessing in The Cloud(tm)?

Quote: A team is typically 6-15 people, Lee and Zhadanovsky said, also known as "two pizza teams,"
The fact that Amazon considers as few as 1-2 slices of pizza (15 person team, 8 to 16 cut pizzas) as adequate says a lot about how they nickle and dime themselves internally as well as how little they care about individual employees preferences: 2 pizzas means you're limited to the most common default options and anyone who doesn't care for them. 6 people would generally be 3 or 4 medium/large pizzas most places I work just to give enough for a full meal and options beyond plain cheese and pepperoni.

I was wondering if anyone would point that out. IMO a 1-2 pizza team is me.

Visual Studio is a rich IDE that provides an abundant collection of tools and functionality for developers to use in every stage of software development. If it's broke, they won't fix it
Bad news for that Workflow Foundation fan?

Hopefully this will become a standard for all development environments. Forcing developers to swap out unsupported components will lead to fewer breaches like the Equifax and Experian breaches.

Alternatively, if the removal is forced, it will result in more developers sticking with out-of-date IDEs simply so they don't have to work out how to update working code to the latest-and-greatest framework, and then coordinate updating multiple servers to that framework, before being able to deploy even the smallest tweak to their application.
Eg: If MS decided that ASP.NET WebForms is no longer supported, and forcibly removed it from Visual Studio, that would break our existing ASP.NET MVC5 apps which need to display and/or export SQL Server Reporting Services reports. Rather than writing our own replacement for the ReportViewer control using a 3rd-party SSRS library, or following MS's "solution" of paying for PowerBI Premium licenses, we'd have to stick with an outdated version of Visual Studio.

That's why I started to use VMs a lot, to keep different constellations of development software that were not compatible to each other.
First contact to a new customer...
- Do you have already a running system in your maintenance department? Yes? Please send me a screenshot of the installed software versioning list (automated functionality).
- Do we already have a VM with that basic constellation? No? Add two days to create one in the cost estimation.

What you seem to have missed is that corporate IT forcing it down your throat is also a feature; so when MS deprecates something major your choices will either be spending half a year doing a rewrite (obviously not on corporate ITs budget 🙄) or having to tell your boss that in fact it's impossible to fix a typo on your apps main screen. 🤦🏽♂️
