github may be too important to block well that explains why my company somehow came up with the idea that it should be on the blocked sites list while this place isn't.

*top 10 health care company in the nation. absolutely fucking amazing.

Is this why it seems to be every prabeep's language of choice?

Now working with a developer that has 4 years experience explaining that you can use StringUtils.isNotBlank(aString) to check for empty or null strings. Guess the gender :|

We just "merged" (more like takeover) with these fuckers last year. We're now a top 10 sized company for our industry, and before the merger they still did most things with pen and paper. Help.

In my experience they aren't even cheaper than hiring citizens. We've worked with many H1B coders, who were fucking terrible (admitted to having friends take their coding tests), that were paid as much or more than mid-level developers. They were hired to do tasks we didn't want to bother having our juniors work on, so not like we were hiring them for things we couldn't' handle. Doesn't make sense unless someone is getting their pockets lined.

Manager who was a senior developer. Asian female.

Been a developer long enough that I don't want to mess with programming when I'm not at work. I don't want to be on a computer when I'm not at work. Basically just stopped purchasing any electronics.

Dev for a health care company. We were overbooked when we had 20 developers. We are down to 5 with the same workload. One of which has been working for two years and can't figure an error when trying to build a project in the wrong version of java.

Except when this is real and you've been stuck working on said projects for almost five years and just feel like blowing your brains out.

Post more of the code, please.

If I was between angular and what you're currently doing, I'd pick the angular job in a heartbeat. If you want to move to a full stack .net / java / whatever job from there it will be easier than where you're coming from now.

This is a good read but at the same time you have to realize that the companies paying the programmers don't care about 99% of what he wrote about. I have been juggling 6-8 projects by myself for multiple years at this point. I don't have time to continually optimize. My manager sure as shit isn't gonna want me spending time doing that either.

Was born in the early 80's but learned basic web development in grade school. It is so much easier today to learn, I don't get why someone with a shit job doesn't take some initiative.
