It's a risky idiom in general because it's often used to prevent debate. "Every existing product has feature X, so feature X is table stakes." "Why are we testing whether we really need this feature, it's table

I code a lot on these. They're amazing on planes and trains as advertised, but I also spend a lot more time coding outside because they don't have the glare issues of a laptop screen.

I generally agree with your original comment, and I think a lot about Schmidt's quote when operating in a startup context. You're right that it's ironic in the Google context. Search should absolutely go back to being measure

Start by answering why projects need to be easier to deliver. Of course they should be, but the nuance of the answer is the thing you measure. You see something that indicates that they're "too slow." What impact would you se

I think this is only hard for poorly informed KRs. If something has risen to your top hypothesis for what's holding your Objective back, just look at the signal that made you honestly believe this. Customers keep telling you the produc

Do you have any sense of why? It works best for me on small teams and startups, since that's where we need people to own and iteratively address full problems. "Understand and address why users of type X aren't returning&quot

I'm not the downvoter, but perhaps they were annoyed with "Would Google of" rather than "Would Google have." That particular error really gets on people's nerves.

We're going too deep into this, for alexgartrell's relatively simple claim that covariant return types have a reason for being in the language, and that smart pointers omit that capability. But just to clarify: no base class implementation

There are cases where covariant return types are abused, so it's fine that you treat it as a code smell. However, C++ does make them necessary for several valid patterns. This does include alexgartrell's example, but here's a popular one: I

Their polymorphic factory isn't returning "different types." They're both returning A. The derived one is just returning a specific type of A. If the shared "makeOne" returned naked pointer types A* and B* rather than shared_ptr, then this

Thank you so much! Sounds like a good ad. It sounds like they're describing the concept in the same way that we do. Shame that they're squeezing their branding into the revolution. Glad it was just one shot of that.

Thank you. Good thinking. Anyone know a good one in Boston? Also, it turns out that the entire idea of their app was the same as ours. They had to be aware of us. Same name. Same app.

They should have printed the word. It's critical to understanding the story. This is the same mistake they made when Cheney said "Fuck yourself." They danced around the word, calling it, "An obscene phrase to describe what he thought Mr. Le
