Patrick is such a tease. I want to know what that two week project at Stripe that /every/ company should have is now.

- gcr 10y agoRight? Half of us on HN would be dying to know. Maybe it's some kind of code review/search tool...?
- erpellan 10y agoI'm going to guess one of: time tracking, holidays, expenses or internal directory with pictures and desk locations.
- weaksauce 10y agoI doubt any of those would be trade secrets that he can't talk about.
- mistermann 10y ago> internal directory with pictures and desk locations I sometimes wonder if no one will ever say out loud how much they'd love this (at bigger companies), or if it's just me that can't easily learn 100 new names/faces/roles/projects.
- gcr 10y agoI struggle with names and faces too. I've been thinking of turning my coworkers into an Anki deck to study on the subway. That would really help me, come to think of it.
- sync 10y agoMaybe generating fake data for testing/development purposes? Each company has to do this in a different way to suit their business needs.
- elevensies 10y agoMy best guess is some kind of highly automated backups but it doesn't quite fit IMO and I'm also very curious.
- foxhop 10y agoI think the "two week projects" are "agile" sprints.
- dmoney 10y agoMe too. I hope someone in this thread will guess it, or something else equally interesting.
