I've used Handy with very varying results. I ended up ditching them because I couldn't get the same cleaner regularly. To use Handy, I would have to take the day off every time I w…

Why do they keep referring to this guy as a "stoner"? What he smokes doesn't seem to be at all related to what he's done.

There have been some posts on this thread saying that reddit is losing users for bad reasons. The users want to make hiring decisions, or approve of hate boards. That might be true…

I always use an in-between system. My configuration library allows me to set a default, if the parameter is not found in the config file. I always set a reasonable default, and the…

Huh. I read your comment more as "you can be perceived as an expert in your trade and still suck at it." Groping a potential client's boobs is a clear sign of sucking at being a VC…

Let me turn this question around a little. I'm a manager of a software development department. I have a coder who works best at night. I got upset with him for falling asleep at hi…

You really think that your productivity has risen more than 10% every year? Do you have any numbers to back that up? I know you use a ticket tracking system. You can add up all you…

Not a question, just saying thanks. Your articles in the 1990s on VGA's modeX were the basis for a long-time obsession of mine: writing VGA graphic drivers to support better ways t…

Boulder tends to have more startups. TechStars is there, and so a lot of small companies are spawned from there. Denver has more established companies, including a lot in healthcar…

I interviewed Dan a few years back, and I've regretted not being able to hire him. If you're hiring, you should really consider bringing Dan in for an interview.

I came here to say the same thing. NewRelic is actually pretty bad at saying "your server is down". But, it's incredible at saying "Your landing page is loading slowly because the …

My feeling is that Google is acting like a monopoly. It's wrong that a private company is able to exert this much power over others, even if the others are being shady.

I worked for RSA back in the 1990s. Back then at least, the sales staff's pay was based heavily on commission. It has a sliding structure that meant that people who sold more got a…

Yeah, I'm with you. I just wish it wasn't portrayed as such a partisan, negative thing. Which is frustrating because that's how he leads. I wish he could have just said "we have an…

I kind of choked on his message of tolerance. We says we should stop talking about how we disagree, then he goes on a tirade against all the lazy, spoiled, stupid people. "We shoul…
