I work at a fintech startup in London. I Really like pair programming, cognition and education, and repeatability. Talk to me about testing, automation, or whatever you are passionate about.

The problem with this lovely idea is that it only works if you assume that postgres will be the single thing you won't change.
If you were to bet on Python being the thing that won't change then you get faster component & integration test-suites, and only suffer virtually the same penalty as you'd have had with postgres during db integration & e2e tests.
I use Linux as my main for Desktop and All servers I interact with. The one exception is that I have a windows Tablet and Laptop so I can play a few games, use any Windows tools (interestingly I own Office because there are bugs in that product that are not in LibreOffice. As soon as the 4 main bugs die, so will my Office 365 license).
It's a real pity more games don't have Linux (robust) support without WINE. Civilization IV non-stop crashes on a vanilla Linux install on every machine I've tried it on, but the more graphically intensive Trine series works flawlessly as does all my retro-gaming.
Great Article. Any tips for getting employers and clients to agree to Linux only?
