All new features are gated behind feature flags that progress from the developing team, to all GitHub employees, then to public over a multi-week span. Larger changes like this one have an internal discussion post shared with the company an

I was responsible for this going out. The goal was to provide a more consistent user experience in that what happens when you click an issue would be the same in more places where we use the issue viewer (sub-issues on an issue, our dedicat

That totally works if it is rare for you! The last 2 months I've had a few things I've added to my personal calendar that synced with work calendar: lunch with a family member, dropping off or picking up car from service, haircuts

Don't Double Book Me isn't some crazy startup idea that needs funding, I am not shooting for the moon with this. Feature development was basically done in a few weekends and I like that it solves a single problem well. There is de

I’ve been working on Don’t Double Book Me ( https://dontdoublebookme.com ) the past few weeks out of frustration with keeping my personal and work Google Calendars in sync. Previously used Reclaim but found $10 a month to keep 2 c

It's a fair critique! I still keep kicking the can down the road about revisiting the project and modernizing it. The ecosystem has moved along so much since I last revisited it I'll need to take a fresh look at it, accepting the

Author of peek here. Honestly, I got burnt out. We stopped using this internally at GitHub for our secondary Rails applications which made it difficult to continue working on. Rails was going through its identity crisis with asset pipelines

C# is used for Actions: https://github.com/actions/runner , and Go is used a lot for internal services. There is no traction rewriting our monolith in C#.

I’ve built something like this and stored the diff regions in PostGIS, really easy way to build a visual diff search tool using bounding boxes.

That’s exactly how it works with Pacaso. I presume it’s the same for Ancana.

Pacaso allows you to purchase more than 1/8 of a residence, you can purchase as many 1/8 shares as you like. So in theory you could easily purchase 1/4 of a residence. Pacaso is also purchasing homes that are not yet built, f

I agree with your assessment of zero innovation or development. I help manage a fairly large on-call rotation and we've actively been finding gaps in their product where we think the product should be of assistance. Through support tic
