<p>seriously, I'd like to see in 5-10 years how the current sold car will behave in the reseller market. 
And the report should consider the performance over winter, not just at 20°C as car vendors are doing</p>

<p>It all boils down to what you want in your life.<p>I've seen people (including myself) trying to change the lifestyle, thus money is a vehicle to do so and to build something with. Not everybody has got rich parents or sugar daddies, some people start from nearly zero and try to climb the social ladder.<p>A higher salary can unlock multiple benefits, in terms of long-term economical security (e. g. in case of market crash and companies go bankrupt / berserk mode, laying people off) and maybe buy yourself a house/apartment.<p>Plus, saving for children's future is one of the best gift a parent can do.<p>Coming to an end: having a salary which is similar to what in SF are offered would be really good</p>

<p>No, at my last work, it was such a pain even doing a minimal change: codebase without unit tests, team lead doing gatekeeping and keeping it old school (some JavaEE 5) and with old servers (there are a lot of CVEs in dependencies and in the servlet server we were using (could not update to latest, since the Java version being used is ancient as well).<p>A pure "throw away" would be much cheaper</p>

<p>In Java, the "write once, run everywhere" is true only if you are in some boundaries.<p>Java Preferences API are a classic example of this false myth, since e.g. on MacOS it behaves differently than in Windows/Linux.<p>And ever heard of Native Runtime? If you want to create a native runtime, you just need to do this on the target platform.<p>So this is very odd to me. GoLang went much further, doing true cross compilation</p>

<p>SonarQube is one of the most famous quality checkers.<p>Another good measure is the number of dependencies used: if too much, the quality might be poor (= poor maintainability).<p>Is the application vulnerable? Check OWASP for this.</p>
