At day I work as an ABAP developer in civil service.
At night I am developing a web-based MMORPG using HTML5 Javascript for the client, Java for the server and MongoDB as database backend. You can follow my progress on my development blog.

Changing the license in a fork from GPL to GPL compatible? @TheLQ: GPL-compatible means that the license doesn't forbid anything the GPL allows, so you can relicense it as GPL. But that doesn't necessarily means that it also works in the other direction. |

Changing the license in a fork from GPL to GPL compatible? MIT and BSD allow to do a lot of things which GPL explicitly forbids, like forking it as a closed-source project. When you could fork a GPL project and turn it into a permissive FOSS license, it would be a massive loophole. |

License for free but restricted software sharing How do you define your "user community"? |

How do we avoid GPL violation when modifying and releasing a program using code coverd by this license? @MarjanVenema There is a separate license, the GNU LGPL ("Lesser" GPL or "Library" GPL) which allows you to use unmodified code in a program released under a different license. But the normal GPL doesn't. |

How do you handle your marginalized talent? The believe to be much smarter than all of your coworkers is a work-related disease for programmers. Unfortunately most people are wrong about it (I am one of the few exceptions, of course). |

NoSQL and BIG DATA There is no such thing as NoSQL. There is just a whole bunch of new database technologies with completely different design philosophies and use cases, and all they have in common are things they also have in common with SQL. You can't evaluate "NoSQL" as a whole. You need to evaluate each database system individually. |

which version of Windows should use I to develop an app Keep in mind that even though VirtualBox might be free, you technically still need a license for each copy of Windows running in a VM. |

Avoiding ubiquitous language clashes Just because you are implementing a certain design pattern doesn't mean that you have to name everything according to how it's named in the Design Patterns book. |

Developers taking code home - how bad is it? Monitoring employees - especially without them knowing - can violate privacy laws in some countries. |

Developers taking code home - how bad is it? +1 - when your programmers want to steal your code, they will be able to do so, no matter what kind of security policies you throw in their way. When you don't trust your programmers, don't hire them. |
