Worked at IBM back in 2010. It was the second most valuable company in the world at that time. I left and now the rank has slipped to 86. Sorry.
I have a Masters in Computer Science and Engineering. Most jobs in my country requires either a Bachelors or a PhD so it is more of a stepping stone for a PhD which I have no interest in pursuing. My current job is the only one that requires my highest degree. My previous jobs all require a lower qualification. In fact, most of the things I learned in my 2 years of acquiring the degree are not that useful in all the jobs I've had so far. Was it worth it? Well, I got the degree from a prestigious institute and that seems to matter more to interviewers than the degree itself. Maybe the real degree is the friends we find along the way \s
I love it when the NPCs in my life story become half-sentient to make my day a bit better.
Apparently I only gave it a quick glance because I thought it was Arabic
No longer part or the tres commas club
What is the name of this technique where some ranking based on year (or any other criteria) is displayed. Is there any javascript or c# etc library for this where the Year could be user controlled?
Finally figured it out. It's in the name!!

I have been searching for a good open source project focused on social impact, something along the lines of Ushahidi and DHIS2. My experience is mainly on enterprise CRUD applications in Django and whatever common JS Framework is in use during that time.Can anyone suggest any such projects?
just gonna leave this comment here to reply to the person whose blog I've followed years before Browserling was created.

I am developing a django application for a business which will be used for storing client information as well as visit records. There are two users: the owner and his receptionist. A daily visit count estimate of 30 would be on the generous side. I am curious to know if this can be served reliably on a Raspbery Pi 4.
My first job was as a COBOL developer 10 years ago. My annual salary was around $4000

I am trying to create a Whatsapp bot for testing some ideas. My requirements are:
1. Chat with the bot using a predefined phone number.
2. Show a list of available menus to the user. Eg. "check request status" menu option and then ask the user to input the request id
3. Connect to a database to extract result based on the user request and send that result to the user.
4. Use Free Services and...
