Let me share a story about how John (a developer like any other) started to understand (and enjoy) writing Tests before the Production code. We've all felt an inevitable "tedium" when writing tests,…

PP y Vox quieren llevar la caza a las aulas en la Comunidad Valenciana. Así pretenden que los niños aprendan a matar animales desde pequeños, disfrazando de “tradición” lo que es crueldad. Menuda pandilla de ladrones y sinvergüenzas.

Israel se prepara a formalizar el Apartheid de facto que mantienen en los territorios palestinos ocupados desde hace años. Hay que recordar que Israel es quien nunca ha reconocido el derecho a existir de un estado palestino. No al revés, como hemos difundido la mayoría de medios occidentales.

I don't know if I can complete more than the maximum expected actions, can I?
I seem to have completed more than expected. Is this good or bad, Linkedin 🤔 ?

Este tipo de fotografías, apoyando a los representantes de un estado que está cometiendo un genocidio, demuestra el colapso moral de este personaje. Una foto que le acompañará toda su vida.
