I personally feel that software architecture isn't so much overrated as too much focused on abstract patterns instead of how to best solve common problems. e.g. last year I needed to model an invoicing system, although this has been i

Yes, before we were using clubhouse someone was doing high-level planning in an Excel/Google docs. A few months later and even marketing is starting to use clubhouse and the milestone planning. I think it really helps to not have 30

I really like Clubhouse, but I'm somewhat skeptical about the free version. (even though it says 'free forever') In the past two years multiple companies that initially had an affordable plan ( 10 dollars a month or less) fo

Educated or not you can't 'unhear' something. What if the conversation is political or financial and has major implications on someone you know? Will you still be able to remain professional and not act on the information

For example: - bots sign up with email addresses that are owned by other people that don't appreciate your welcome/activation/etc. mails. - all that automatically generated data can start to hurt performance. Especially on

I think the most important issue why projects take longer is not because the time it takes to complete a task is uncertain, but because at the start it will always be unknown which tasks will prove critical. The further you get, the more ta

You are not alone. Mostly an issue when using laptop in lazy mode on couch or bed. In that regard I miss the old laptop designs with rounded edges on both front and sides like my old Dell D400.

It depends a bit on the phrasing, but in all cases where someone asked if we would pay for vulnerability reports and we replied we would not pay, only offer acknowledgement on our security page, they would still share the report. If you ar

I learned about clubhouse.io last week. Testing it now, but it seems very nice. Just enough configuration and structure. (We are coming from Trello which just doesn't deal well with a large number of tickets as you have only one view

I don't really mind the new design itself, but the new font looks too blurry to look at on my non-retina mac. ( I suspect the -moz-osx-font-smoothing:grayscale) and it is insanely slow. Luckily I can still revert back on GSuite for n

Can be more accidental. e.g. dumping full POST data in a more generic way (e.g. on exceptions) that happens to also be applied on the login page.

I'm basically the same, maybe a little less on the actual technical direction. What I feel is the biggest disadvantage is that you are the bottleneck for anything to move forward. I'm not sure yet on how to solve that. A few ch

Although I agree more with the original title, as that would be the exact message I need at this time, I would suggest to then at least also include Sierra, and El Capitan in the title as the fact that the document was updated is most re

I mean smaller as in closer to zero as in exponent lower than 127. That part is obvious in the formula, but not from the graphs. The interesting part of the explanation is that it shows very clearly the effect of the 1.M in the formula.

I'm guessing because if you put those words together, you automatically assume the offset means the position of the window. It's clear enough with the illustration, but using terms that are in very common use for other concepts c

I feel one of the reasons so much software appears broken is exactly by leaving these decisions in the hands of programmers. This mostly happens because nobody else wants to make the decision either. However, what constitutes a small bug vs

In our case the reason we switched from SMTP to an HTTP API was mostly speed. At least for Sendgrid, their HTTP API is much faster than SMTP. In general I agree that I'm not seeing a big advantage in having another service to keep up

Exactly the same experience here. I always felt bad about those periods that I wasn't able to even put in 20 productive hours a week, until I started writing detailed hour log: every bad period was always preceded by a very product

In the projects that I was involved in in the past years, the ones that decided to build a scalable infrastructure before gaining traction were exactly those that were burning cash on infrastructure. There is just a reasonable minimum of s

I agree the title is confusing. As far as I understand everything is unsupervised except for the sentiment neuron. The paper itself is actually a better read.

Yes, my experience is similar. A typical task will take at least 3 or 4 pomodoro. There are few important aspects that contribute to being able to continue easily: - you know the Pomodoro ends at a specific time, so you can properly close,

At the same time, what is expected from those solutions in terms of features, usability, security and reliability also grows. So I'm not sure it will get worse, it will however change the skill set required. As it has been changing sin

Although I can see the reasoning, this absolutely does not work for me. The times procrastination bothers me is exactly in those cases: when there is something important but not exactly specified at the top of the list. I'll feel g

Although I agree with the idea that Frameworks can easily make your life worse instead of better. Especially at the time the Framework moves forward to a version that is not at all compatible with what you are doing. However, in your updat

I think the assumption of the author is that the 3 hours he does work are best-case productive hours. If you work 40+ hours a week, you still have to account for all those staring-at-your screen hours, that are not contributing towards me
