vargalas··on Full-Stack Developers
LOL. Exclusively frontend or backend developers are extremely limited.

I never understood why would somebody limit him/herself unless it's for market positioning.

vargalas··on Ask HN: Can an insider explain why Apple's networking/connectivity is so poor?
Following. And I add two to the list: - Macbook's wifi connection is crazily unreliable. Based on Googling, it's also not unique. - Iphone cannot find mobile net after coming out of the basement until I turn the mobile net off and on again. Grrr.

vargalas··on Docker Swarm vs. Kubernetes: Container Orchestrators Compared
Good comparison. I'd be interested in a comparison with Rancher, too. Looks promising to me.

Well, it's interesting to read the words "Trump" and "tolerance" in the same sentence.

vargalas··on Ask HN: Should I choose big name or big salary?
If you love one of them, go for the love. Otherwise, the money you make is yours... If one pays 50% more, it gives you so much freedom. You _never_ can exactly know if you'll love a company or not before actually working there.

vargalas··on My Immigration Story
I'm looking forward to reading it. Your visa story is well-written.
vargalas··on My Immigration Story
I agree. Post Soviet countries had really good education. My Hungarian Bsc level maths/cs degree was way more difficult than my UK masters or my second masters in Belgium. You needed to learn and you had to think, not only buff back the knowledge. Also the competition was quite high. Still, the universities of my masters' are in the top 200 and the Hungarian university is not in the top 500. Well, that's life. But I still was not able to get a visa (to be ontopic).

vargalas··on Ask HN: How's working in the Silicon Valley today?
I'm a senior web/fullstack developer, interviewing with some firms in order to move to the Valley. I have a good chance with a company in SF, soon I'll have to negotiate the salary with them. Is $120.000/year really hardly enough to live on there? I'm in Europe now so I really don't know the costs there. Here I make ~7000-9000 Eurs / month, which is quite enough.

vargalas··on Don't Start a Company to Be Your Own Boss
Start a strtup in case you want to make business, to have fun. Investors are not your bosses. Their goal is the same: make your company perform better. Don't be afraid of them :)
