So many billions of dollars will be lost because of this, like scrum before it! Commits, without context, don't say much. Eager companies will try to follow this and just create a cobra effect.

I found it easier to get a new project if you focused on support tickets as a new hire. It is quite something to be able to be productive and see some dark corners of the stack earlier on.

Phew. Thought it might be a government shutdown or something that hectic.

I hope things will be different in our case. We always get everything last. Funny enough, South Africa has the best internet infrastructure compared to the other Southern African Countries.

As a South African, I hope the demand will force ISP's to lower data prices and improve speeds.
