How is the data getting into these tools in the first place? If your applications are instrumented with OpenTelemetry, you can use the OpenTelemetry Collector as the first hop, and then you might be able to send the data to both tools at th

It's always strange when you see programmers who don't understand why namespace collisions are bad.

Definitely. I've been spending a decent amount of mental energy on this and still feeling very fuzzy about it. I especially feel like bootstrapping techies treat their time like it's worth nothing, when it clearly isn't -- they just aren't

Convention over configuration was always easier in smaller decisions where people didn't have very strong opinions. i.e., "model files go in ./app/models/" When it comes to more subjective, more context-dependent decisions like authenticati

Oof. Please remember it is much, much easier to measure something like labor participation rate (which is what the study actually measures) than work ethic (which is the interpretation that the blogger is drawing out of that data). If one g

Generally speaking I like to have at least one CI environment available for every branch that makes you nervous, plus master. So what number you're dealing with depends on the team. Sometimes you have eight engineers but only four of them a

Yeah, personally I know a number of solid devs who like feature toggling but the notion has always rubbed me the wrong way. Especially because half the time I'm adding a non-trivial feature, I'm always semi-refactoring the code underneath t

Oh, yeah, I guess that's our Backbone redirect from the initial page to whatever the first "pane" would be. If we weren't using teh Ajax we'd do that, we'd use a 302 and then the browser history wouldn't get confused. We'll figure out a fix

No we haven't, and that's something for us to keep in mind if we think about switching, but for the time being all our stuff's in Vimeo and I don't think we have any plans to move it. EDIT: Actually, on thinking on it for another minute, I
