Site loaded almost instantly for me. Paging through some catalogs was very fluid also.

Hire people to stand at the entrance with a hand-counter (one for entry, one for exit). Have them jot down the count every half hour. Cheap, easy, foolproof.

I miss everything not being monetized. I miss not being online 24/7.

Rejoice! For you have learned a valuable lesson! Next time, first look how well the competition is doing before coding up the same thing. As for why vertical tabs are not popular: …

Websites like https://radio.garden and https://www.radio.net/ do the same without having me install yet another app. What is your unique selling point? What does HqRadio bring that…

There where even mail-to-ftp gateways. I vaguely remember using bitftp (?) to get a copy of the Utah Raster Toolkit that way. Long time ago...

If the cost is lower than the value provided, yes, of course I'll pay!

Don't tell us, show us the value of your project! Show how it would work in practice, show how it is better than normal Jira search. Show why I should use your project instead of t…

You posted this two days ago already.

I don't use it. Somehow I'm constantly checking how much time remains. Can't get into the flow. And if I do get into any kind of flow state, the last thing I want is to get interru…

This mandatory harvesting of personal information is atrocious. Inevitably these personal email addresses get stolen, leaked or just sold to everyone that wants it. The user get a …

I'd suggest connecting all your gear with the appropriate cables. Any left over cables can go to the recycling center. You're never going to need them.

Action items from the retro should be user stories for the next sprint!

For work I use a calendar (Outlook) as a todo list. A task gets added to a date and time in the future so I know I can't forget it. When the day comes, I either do the thing, or I …

Knuth can be a bit of an acquired taste. In my opinion it isn't very useful to read if you don't fully commit to do the exercises. That will take time and a lot of it! I suggest yo…

I think that argument only holds when the customer is informed about those specific tradeoffs. The customer will choose the cheap bulbs because they can't be sure the expensive one…

They are optimizing dollars extracted per customer. Either that, or they are so incompetent designing electronics they shouldn't be allowed to.

Well, it's been a good run. I sure will miss them, though.

To ensure employment either be a specialist (so you can do something others can't), or choose an older technology that used to be popular but isn't now. Most developers will have m…

You don't have to seed 24/7. It's OK as long as (parts of) torrents get seeded regularly.

100 people sharing a shard of 5TB each is even better (more resilient).

I recognize the feeling somewhat. First time I experienced it was when considering traveling out in the solar system, but perpendicular to the ecliptic. I liken it to thalassophobi…
