I personally feel that software architecture isn't so much overrated as too much focused on abstract patterns instead of how to best solve common problems. e.g. last year I needed …

Yes, before we were using clubhouse someone was doing high-level planning in an Excel/Google docs. A few months later and even marketing is starting to use clubhouse and the milest…

I really like Clubhouse, but I'm somewhat skeptical about the free version. (even though it says 'free forever') In the past two years multiple companies that initially had an affo…

Educated or not you can't 'unhear' something. What if the conversation is political or financial and has major implications on someone you know? Will you still be able to remain pr…

For example: - bots sign up with email addresses that are owned by other people that don't appreciate your welcome/activation/etc. mails. - all that automatically generated data ca…

I think the most important issue why projects take longer is not because the time it takes to complete a task is uncertain, but because at the start it will always be unknown which…

You are not alone. Mostly an issue when using laptop in lazy mode on couch or bed. In that regard I miss the old laptop designs with rounded edges on both front and sides like my o…

It depends a bit on the phrasing, but in all cases where someone asked if we would pay for vulnerability reports and we replied we would not pay, only offer acknowledgement on our …

I learned about clubhouse.io last week. Testing it now, but it seems very nice. Just enough configuration and structure. (We are coming from Trello which just doesn't deal well wit…

I don't really mind the new design itself, but the new font looks too blurry to look at on my non-retina mac. ( I suspect the -moz-osx-font-smoothing:grayscale) and it is insanely …

I wonder if he actually tried it. I always thought the same about PR's for internal process, until I actually tried it. It made working with feature branches much more convenient. …

Can be more accidental. e.g. dumping full POST data in a more generic way (e.g. on exceptions) that happens to also be applied on the login page.

I'm basically the same, maybe a little less on the actual technical direction. What I feel is the biggest disadvantage is that you are the bottleneck for anything to move forward. …

Although I agree more with the original title, as that would be the exact message I need at this time, I would suggest to then at least also include Sierra, and El Capitan in the t…

I mean smaller as in closer to zero as in exponent lower than 127. That part is obvious in the formula, but not from the graphs. The interesting part of the explanation is that it …

I'm guessing because if you put those words together, you automatically assume the offset means the position of the window. It's clear enough with the illustration, but using terms…

I feel one of the reasons so much software appears broken is exactly by leaving these decisions in the hands of programmers. This mostly happens because nobody else wants to make t…

In our case the reason we switched from SMTP to an HTTP API was mostly speed. At least for Sendgrid, their HTTP API is much faster than SMTP. In general I agree that I'm not seeing…

Seems if you click enough, the tax site does mention it in some obscure tool. I always thought it only applied to goods. For the dutch: https://www.belastingdienst.nl/rekenhulpen/d…

Exactly the same experience here. I always felt bad about those periods that I wasn't able to even put in 20 productive hours a week, until I started writing detailed hour log: eve…

In the projects that I was involved in in the past years, the ones that decided to build a scalable infrastructure before gaining traction were exactly those that were burning cash…

I agree the title is confusing. As far as I understand everything is unsupervised except for the sentiment neuron. The paper itself is actually a better read.

Yes, my experience is similar. A typical task will take at least 3 or 4 pomodoro. There are few important aspects that contribute to being able to continue easily: - you know the P…

At the same time, what is expected from those solutions in terms of features, usability, security and reliability also grows. So I'm not sure it will get worse, it will however cha…
