How does this compare to RST, which also claims to solve specific MD inconveniences? In researching for this reply I see that it's joining a somewhat crowded field https://en.wikip…

I made https://poemd.dev/ as an online markdown scratchpad that supports GitHub Flavoured Markdown and stores all data in the URL. This means there are no accounts to work with and…

Having worked in ecommerce on both merchant and SaaS side I can explain why they may have and as a customer you will basically never see it applied. From an engineering point of vi…

Pop is a very similar product.

Part of the problem is discoverability. As the library gets larger, without adequate time invested into docs or standardised naming to enable faster code-based search, people can e…

I think the topic of having/not-having children should be treated like politics and religion in polite conversation, to be avoided. Unfortunately there is quite the philosophical, …

I'm glad it's posted and thanks for being quite generous with the sample content of downloads and links that did not require an email to access. I have bought a copy.

Since the description is pretty light. It seems Canon Rumors is a site dedicated to Canon related news in the same vein as MacRumors.

I think the idea is that it makes for more compliant, or less empowered, workers that will put up with more abuse.

I have similarly varied background and I have not had candidate employers put it through that lens. If anything I find people tend to look upon varied experience as proof that you …

I have found Vimac [1] to be an okay alternative to mouse keys. Unfortunately I find that it's still slower than just grabbing the mouse. Performance can also vary depending on the…

The article covers the basics. Once you are ready to go beyond that, I would recommend exploring customisations, which are well covered by Awesome Tmux: https://github.com/rothgar/…

Having been on the other side of this I do have a viewpoint to present you. For context I worked for an online apparel retailer that had a lot of images and the site was hosted on …

The rule of thumb that I was taught for software delivery is to double it for every layer of management you have to deal with. So if it's just you to a customer, 1 week becomes 2. …

Dare I say that given the choice of stretching the truth or admitting failure, startups will always choose stretching the truth. Often the truth is just seen as yet-to-be-realised …

Agreed. A new language will not solve garbage in, garbage out problems. A lot of times even when a BA tries to untangle the mess of business practices by carefully documenting it a…

As far as satire goes, this is not very biting. Nevertheless, the point is appreciated as LinkedIn becomes a professional self-promotion channel for certain types of people to proj…

This is why definition of done is quite important, to get everyone one the same page about what it means to complete a task.

A more common scenario I see is that people start with a monolith that ends up inheriting all the conceptual debt that accumulates as a project evolves. All this debt builds up a g…
