XCOM, or, more recently released, Baldur's Gate 3 fits too.

In English that's called paucal vs plural forms, Polish has the same rules as Russian.
Sidenote: there are translation systems that support it, e.g. Qt does (https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/i18n-plural-rules.html).
So does Jerboa tbh.
Favorite? Kotlin generally speaking, but I use Python the most and like it quite much as well. Can't beat Python's time for zero to something useful running and you will find bindings and frameworks for anything.
C++ for anything performance sensitive, or running anything on my Synology NAS.
Yeah very common in Spark world, but haven't seen it used much elsewhere.
That approach could work in the past, but it won't now. Now we have the internet when even people shamed by their family or neighbors will find support and like-minded individuals. We are only going to be more divided in the future.
Certs for me can be a net negative - if you have one, I expect you to know shit. An answer of "I don't know, but here's my take on it" is a good answer in my book, because we can't all know everything and I'm generally more interested in attitude and thought process than pure knowledge. But that changes when you are certified and brag about it on your resume. That bar goes higher, for no apparent gain to be honest. Example: if you have "certified AWS Foo Bar" and you don't know what a vpc is, that's a red flag for me. It wouldn't be otherwise, even if you had AWS experience listed, because maybe you were just working with ECS and didn't need to know jack shit about vpcs.
About the only situation in which a cert is a plus is when you have close to zero relevant experience. But all of the above still applies.
Years ago, while I was a poor students I compiled Gentoo on an overclocked Celeron CPU at whopping 533 MHz. Took literally 3 days to get to a functioning KDE desktop.
Worth every second, especially because it was winter and the dorm room was cold. My friends appreciated it too, they nicknamed my desktop "the reactor" for all the warmth it provided compiling all the damn time.
I use a single dot when committing to a feature branch. I will either rebase or merge --squash anyway, so what's the point really.
e: in my private projects that is, I use a jira ticket number at work, because I have to.
Has no one here ever worked on a new project or even a new feature in a decently sized codebase? Working exclusively in maintenance / minor change mode has to be exhausting.
Poland.
A lot of development and other IT related jobs get outsourced, so experienced devs are in very high demand. We usually work in a B2B arrangement, a developer starts their own company (sole trader I think it's called in the US) and invoices an agency that deals with corporate customers.
Salaries are around 3-4x average national salary, with smaller taxes than on a work contract and less safety (which is not a problem due to high demand). Locally, managers do not usually play any role, I report directly to the customer's managers, usually far away from Poland. If I were to sign a contract with the customer, that's no longer B2B usually, the salary is less and taxes are higher.
Oh yeah totally, they don't need to fight Russia, they should just give up and let Russians do what they did in Bucha to the whole country. Of course Russians are known to peacefully incorporate conquered territories with no harm done whatsoever to civilians.
Some countries might not be worth fighting for, I guess that's true. Some other countries are always worth fighting against though, and Russia is one of them.
