Currently we are using Vue.js for our frontend. The folder structure is basically: we have a folder for each of our pages (e.g., "tickets", "ticket-details", "orders", "order-details", "checkouts", "checkout-details", etc.). Within each of these folders we have subfolders for each significant part of the screen (e.g., we have a subfolder "ticket-details/email" where we put all the components related to sending emails and display the incoming ones). Besides, we have a "shared" folder for reusable components across all our pages (e.g., "Spinner.vue" and the like). Finally, we also have folders for "reusable modules" (these are just plain JavaScript files that we import here and there).

At the beginning this folder structure made sense, but currently we have over 210 Vue components (and growing). I haven't found any "better" architecture/folder structure on the web. Do you know any better?

I was thinking about simulating our backend folder structure in the frontend but I'm not quite sure about it (our backend is basically Symfony with folders for each "business" aspect of our system, subdivided in "use cases" (e.g., "return an order unit") that call "services", and "modules" that can be reused across the whole system. Somehow our backend seems to "scale" better than our frontend...

I'm talking about the type of machine that creates time. For instance, you get into a room and stay there for 30 days. When you get out only 30 min. (for instance) have passed in the real world. Of course, you'd be 30 days minus 30 min. older in the real world.

Any sci-fi stories about this (as far as I know, only [1]) ? Does real science have ever talked about it?

We all know how they are for developers: programming challenges (Fizzbuzz, homework, whiteboard coding, etc.), examples of your work (GitHub, side projects, blog, etc.), questions like "what is the hardest challenge you have had to overcome and how did you approach it?", they ask you about something and they expect you to get excited talking about it... and the usual behavioural questions.

The only things I usually include on my CV are: name, surname, country and city of residence, email, phone, some links (e.g. GitHub profile), and of course professional experience, education, and skills. I've never included picture, the birthplace or birthdate.

Now I'm thinking applying for a job in Germany (only English-speaking companies from startups to medium-big sized). Do you think I should include a picture, the birthdate and birthplace too?

Thanks.

I've heard that in general only mid-to-senior level developers are entrusted with full remote positions (or at least 80% or so). Do you find it true in your environment?

The term mid-to-senior level can means different things in different countries. I understand that 3 years of experience is the minimum for a mid level and 5 for a senior one. I can be wrong, thought.

I really like my iPod shuffle[1]. It's the device I use the most and taking into account that it only cost me around 50 euros, I think it's the best "thing" I've ever bought. Just one minor issue: 2GB of storage.

So question is if you know good alternatives. Just two features are important for me: size (~iPod shuffle) and storage (> 2GB).

I'm a developer and I want to learn German. There is a plan, a deadline, motivation and hopefully time to do it. Basically, I'll try to reproduce what I did to learn English (native Spanish speaker) but in a shorter period of time. I have to said, my English is still far from perfect but I can watch movies and the like and understand about 80% of them, I can communicate effectively in my area of domain (software development) and in other common areas (but cannot talk about politics or geology, for example). I would say my level of English is something between B2 and C1 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_European_Framework_of_Reference_for_Languages)

So, this is my plan:

July, August and September (2016): Learn the basics, the grammar, watch Youtube videos with German subtitles. I have bookmarked a couple of grammar books and good Youtube channels.

October (2016) to July (2017): I'll be in Germany, this means I'll have to speak! Although what I'm going to do there only requires me to speak English. Will keep improving the grammar and will keep watching, not only videos, but also the TV and the radio and of course I'll talk with German people.

The level I want to reach is the same as my level of English I have now. I know it's a hard task to accomplish, but boy, I'm motivated.

Suggestions, tips and personal experience learning non formal languages are welcome. Thanks!
