Man… the battle between cultural expectations and our true selves is humanity’s oldest conflict. A few people get lucky. Most of us survive in the cracks. No capitalization was as surprising as the narration itself… not sure how to feel abo

The keyword is diligently keeping your system up to date! That said you’ll still have exposure to zero day vulnerabilities and DOS attacks.

Drama - but I’m making progress with radical accountability (which I used to think of as self gaslighting). It has helped me cut down my own bullsh*t and I’m happier for it!

I’ve been toying with the idea of creating physical coffee table books with accompanying digital / online version (think photo blog) to document both pictures and thoughts for a particular trips for example- I think it’s much better ap

Am I the only one who went “wtf is mutton?” ;) Love goat stew - but you have to know how to season and cook it right tho.

You can try osTicket https://osticket.com The UI is very dated, but we're working on a rewrite with modern UI.

Not when it’s at-will employment. You don’t need a reason to fire anyone in most states in US. Only exceptions are protected things like because of gender or race etc - but that is even blurry to prove it. Unions are the only protection but

I most definitely struggle with this as well - a friend sharing their issues can result in instant solutions streaming out or even sleepless night “solving” their problems! I haven’t completely gotten away from the habit but I now make sure

Same here - reminds me of a lawyer named “So Sue” - cannot find the reference but I thought it must be interesting seeing her name on legal papers.

Mine never drops that low - but it has gone as highly as 500+ and I can definitely feel that something is off. Question - do you eat meals in regular schedule or just once a day?

It would really depend on the severity of the bugs... assign severity levels as part of triaging. Also what kind of bugs are coming up is important... I think bug do tell stories; it might help you identify issues with feature assumptions o

This is welcomed news! I'm diabetic (type 2). While I have it under control and don't need continous monitoring or insulin, it would be nice have data on levels monitored. I've considered implantable monitoring like Eversense

I used to believe in "culture fit" as well but it took me going to a tech conference to realize it was a codeword / gateway for alot of **isms. And I don't even mean racism - say your potential candidate is older with ki

It's just like dating - have you tried it lately? Dating Apps has made the issue even worse - so "better" hiring platform is not a viable solution either. The quickest hires IMHO are via referrals - but this is sort like arra

Being mindful can open scary doors for sure... but something about the article gives me the vibes of depersonalization opesode of sort. Perhaps the effect of Marijuana + Mindfulness + Other stuff? I say that because a while back I started u

Sounds to me like you intimidated by thier degrees and whatnot! I would say build up your confidence on your core work and focus on solving problem at hand! A good way to do that is be open to them explaining stuff to you - they'll yap

This is where co-working space (WeWork?) would work well. I just signed a 3 months contract for my team to meet at co-working place as needed to kickstart a project which in person meeting is important.

It’s because even $5/month shared hosting plan has it. Simply put - PHP is everywhere! Most CMS are installed via auto-installers (e.g on cpanel) and are also managed by mostly nontechnical users using shared hosting! So… if your CMS i

I think the OP has a point - look at the cycle of innovation e.g in physics - happens almost every 100! I think it’s not an accident - as older generation die out the new ones can easily question the wisdom of the death vs living giants!

Caves scare the hell out of me - I get anxiety just thinking about it! Come to think of it - I don’t think I have any hobby that borders on scary to anyone ( flying somehow calms me and snaps me to reality tho). Perhaps I’m just an anxious

Intereting question... my younger brother was a twin as well, born prematurely and incubated for months. His twin didn't make it and to this day he claims his twin took part of his brain or will (not sure exactly what he means) I'

I agree that developers are vital - but the buyer is who to market to, not necessarily the user.

I would not add such access to your turnkey SAAS instrastructure. Perhaps you can offer a read-replica as an add-on but the headache will be massive when it comes to CI/CD with little ROI for most of your customers. This is an opportun

Nicely done and simple! Perhaps not product direction - but I would suggest it anyhow; It would be awesome to explore making it an onboarding / interractive / guided self-serve walkthrough pilot with checklists and such. That&#x27

Perhaps your friends interviewed potential customers (i.e buyers not just users) and arrived at marketing it as a dev tool for dev teams... In my opinion - I'm not so sure if the product should be marketed to "dev teams" per

How would you know next time you order a steak at your favorite restaurant? I can see restaurants substituting - just like they do with fish.
