    What is a alternative we can use? My team and I often use Docker images as part of our development process on our desktop machines.

    You're exactly right - if you're writing readme's all the time, you'd have templates ready to go. I only write readme's maybe once every few months or perhaps once a year, and havi…

    I think it might be closer to 215mm x 215mm or 0.49 square feet. Though that is unimaginably large to me for a silicon chip. I can't comprehend it - the engineering behind it would…

    I like it! - it reminds me of the TI-84 (I think it was that one?) back in high school where I could do bouncing balls and other animations. This is simple enough and interactive e…

    What if instead of arrows we had words "Agree" "Disagree" "Interesting" "Not Interesting" The agree/disagree options would only be visible on comments within an article

    May I ask what the previous product was?

    I wrote one for Tcl years ago, as I started working on a really complicated product with around 50k lines of code (or more, distant memory). Maybe I should give it another crack fo…

    This is the approach I want to take as well - but I give up so many times because I can’t track down a method of communicating with that person. I looked a while ago and I couldn’t…

    This looks so so appealing!! My biggest mental hurdle with these systems are - how do I easily have local development environments My team and I can use - displaying other users na…

    I've built a visual project plan tool to scratch this itch for myself - www.gameplan.global It's not open source though It's a visual DAG that auto schedules out the plan given the…

    There one thing it did, and OS/2 did that I really really really miss. Having different sized icons. I miss my giant Battletech icon :(

    It's a super interesting set of requirements - and I've been mentally trying to wrestle with an extra ones on top of that - selectively syncing data. Let's say I've got three users…

    I agree - I have to consciously choose what I want to feed my brain. It's so easy to choose things that don't align with my goals, whether that be family, personal or business goal…

    It was super cool!!! I had so much fun emulating it drawing single and double line text borders, with shadows. Oh ASCII chart how I miss thee.

    Atlassian is one example that grew without a traditional sales team, having a very low touch sales process I think they are definitely the exception than the rule though https://ww…

    Most everything I work on is related to graphs if I squint enough. But to take an example from my visual planning - Gameplan.global - i use graph algorithms to model task dependenc…

    I have re-read the readme about 5 times now, and I'm still not really sure what it is. I _think_ its an API wrapper to make functionality available in older versions of windows, is…

    No they wont be I don’t think, based on the “work done for free” part at the end. I think that is the point if the open-source angle if it, that it is socially acceptable to donate…

    I made something similar - GamePlan [1] (not open source though It's a visual task/planning tool. Does estimates, task grouping, resources, a bunch of different constraints, critic…
