You are in the wrong PR wise probably. Generally I think providing a way to opt out has become the path many projects take. Anyway, their main beef appears that you are not properly anonymizing the telemetry.

We all kinda hate it but if you want to build UIs on the web you probably have to learn it. Start with mastering flexboxes https://flexboxfroggy.com/ After that maybe allow yourself to look into something like cross platfo

Always fun to see a new UAV startup. Did you use an open source autopilot (like ardupilot, PX4, Paparazzi, etc) or build something internally?

The microservices knowledge is the interesting stuff and transfers to the more complex hard to maintain things people build elsewhere. The infra stuff is generally toil you can figure out if you must. Keep at it or look for places using bet

Everyone wants a scapegoat and easy answers where there are none. That said SF government is provably corrupt (and every couple years someone goes down) but the Chesa recall is a side show.

Wait until they find out how many different teams and systems and plans they have to try and do real software subscriptions. Anyone who’s worked on billing stuff for software knows there won’t be anything rapid about this transition.

Sure, lots of engineering needs, but I work with some software PMs in the industry. Reach out.

Typical credit card transactions fees range from 1.5-3.5 percent so the 2 percent is not a terrible deal and businesses usually just eat it in retail and work it into the prices. Usually there is language in the contract with the processor

I mean, “don’t leave stuff in your car” is a pretty basic tenant of parking on the street in any big city… but yeah, it’s kinda as described and has been for at least a decade or more.

I don’t agree with this. Once it starts to click a bit, if you enjoy it, it’s not hard to make progress. Build things that excite you and keep at it. Don’t just study for the sake of studying - create things you want to use. Take the leap b

Don’t give up if it’s what you want to do. It took me about 10 years to make the switch from IT/network guy and another 12 being a dev to become a director of eng. Btw, I’m hiring Python inclined people with strong Linux and distribute

Perhaps it will show folks how their product and business decisions affect people day to day and improve the experience for everyone. As of now DoorDash is a service I won’t use and definitely won’t work for due to their terrible labor poli

Mine (white, electric, Frigidaire) goes to 170F. Maybe you need a cheaper oven.

Interested to try it out. As someone who’s done a good bit of pair programming this way with tmux+vim on a cloud vm I’d love to hear what the advantages are over that kind of setup and the differentiators from tmux or screen.

If they don’t do a direct listing maybe they’ll let some old timers get in on the IPO like Airbnb did for hosts. Lurking for 16 years has to count for something right? :)

Yeah, they suck though. We do weekly at home PCR testing too and everyone is fully vaccinated so the masks are a little excessive but I guess better to be safe for now. It’s required so we can operate I think and we need to be there on-site

I get that it’s insane to open a business here and the 200k ice cream shop thing was ridiculous but in this case they asked them to put in a hood and some sinks which appears pretty reasonable.

For these kinds of questions your age and at least country/state would help us orient and provide better help if that’s what you’re looking for. But no, it’s not all a nightmare. But some jobs/managers/products certainly are

They could, you know, make it easier for their employees to work on open source… What they really want is open source talent with inbuilt influence over the projects they are strategically interested in or dependent on.

They really need to build a board with a built in slot for NVMe 2 storage. Running stuff off an sd card is a data loss nightmare and upgrading with aftermarket NVMe stuff is annoying.

Suggest powering off devices when you get pulled over etc. This forces a passcode when they boot up in most cases now. On iPhone now you don’t even have to power off. It’s enough to just get to the power off swipe screen and passcode will b

Take some of that money and pay for some therapy and talk about this stuff. Not meant to be a flippant comment - it’s genuinely the best thing you could do for yourself and your wife in this situation. Be prepared to fire therapist that don
