Well she was really promiscuous, I'm not shaming her but I get it certain words offend certain people so I should filter what I write.

IF you think this is cool check out Irmin.

Perl isn't dead so much as it's primarily only used in production by older sys admins but it still has a community that loves it, VB.NET is alive and well in Microsoft shops and among noob malware authors.

My definition of fucking dead is smalltalk. But this is coming from a guy who's favorite pls are erlang, SML/NJ, and Ocaml lol.

Well it's cyclical for me for companies I work 60-80 hours a week then I live off savings for a while and work on personal projects about 42 hours a week, then I go back to work for the man.

To answer whether it is reflected in my yearly income well it depends where I am working sometimes it's kind of just a salary based set up, sometimes I get per hour pay, I don't think any software engineer ever has gotten a time and a half for over time though.

I mean they are right on most of these points, but ultimately it's moot because speaking from the position of a systems programmer most of us don't think about application developers that much unless they are heavily involved in the process.

This is just because most of us wound up as systems programmers because we found business logic boring and we are both smart and masochistic.

We compensate by making sure whatever we are building is nevertheless very extendable.

But like honestly even if we cared that strong consistency is easier on the developer, the only techniques that I can think of on the top of my head that aren't hellish to implement where you can come close enough to the performance and availability of strongly eventually consistent AP systems are chain and copyset replication, and unfortunately you really don't see many people using it outside of Academic and Erlanger circles.
