Geord Floyd full body cam video leaked
Even without this, who was to say it was a racist murder anyway? Black people kill black people in great numbers in the US and here. Black police officers have killed white suspects in the US. Only if you look into the history and background of the officer as in the Rodney King case could a... -

Developer, data science jobs: US tech is taking a worse hit than other sectors
Not following the logic on that one, the desire to have your own bespoke software is increasing not decreasing, it will become increasingly rare for a business not to have an online presence. I've seen software development happen without every single one of the job roles you mentioned except... -

Slightly technical post on Git
Just Western civilisation disappearing up it's own A-hole, nothing to see please move along. These people are a walking cliche, so much so the Chinese have a name for them, Baizuo. a sarcastic reference to those whose political opinions are perceived as being guided by emotions or a... -

How can we fight back against Infosys, TCS and other Indian consultancies?
You seem obsessed with Brexit, I'm not sure where all this fits in with the Kübler-Ross model but it isn't healthy.- PlanB

Labour / Conservatives / LibDems offer very little real alternative, their message is essentially the same. Any party that even remotely looks like it is going to break that cartel gets stamped on from a great height.- PlanB

You mean like that well known failed state Switzerland? You started in on Brexit for some unknown reason, quite clearly several posts ago.- PlanB

How can we fight back against Infosys, TCS and other Indian consultancies?
This has quickly descended into a tedious rehash of Brexit which I have no wish to get into whatsoever, every time a democracy asks it's population to make a decision be that electing a party or a referendum somebody wins and somebody loses. The entire process falls apart when the losing side...- PlanB

If there were any issues they were solely down to politicians and a sizeable minority of the population not accepting the result. Democracy only ever works when losers accept they have lost.- PlanB

Some form of direct democracy is the way forward, those who seek power should be automatically excluded from it. Something like jury duty but for MPs for a time limited period and severe restrictions on back handers be they trips to Disney Land or directorships after office. Any party that...- PlanB

I think money going into the back pockets of politicians may be involved, does that help? Any reasonably free thinking person not brought to heel like a pavlovian dog would be able to see that mainstream parties are not acting in the best interests of the electorate.- PlanB

How can we fight back against Infosys, TCS and other Indian consultancies?
Many still don't see the connection between voting for a globalist party/leader and their quality of life when having to compete with the rest of planet earth for their own jobs, not in the protected professions of law and politics of course. Instead of blindly following the MSM with their...- PlanB

Stop engaging with the system, break down what you actually need from life, food, shelter, warmth. I'm moving into farming and self sufficiency as my plan b, it's hard work but at least the rewards of my labours will be clearly visible and I will minimise the amount of tax I hand over to people...- PlanB

State of the Market
I've been around long enough to see the peaks and troughs of people entering the industry, there was a boom prior to the millennium as the world turned online, then a massive shake out after 9/11 and another after 2008. After each downturn any who couldn't hack it moved out of IT and the...- PlanB

This is not how you should interview a contractor!
It's their gig, if you want the money you need to fit in with them, by all means give them advice if you feel it warrants it but not all clients will be appreciative. As for scrum and agile, that is not the silver bullet of software development, it has many flaws so I wouldn't die on the cross...- PlanB
