Blue Apron at one point had a similar cancellation flow. For a year I'd login and cancel the next week's shipment -- one time I missed that, and got a surprise delivery -- and that caused me to fully bounce. They got one more sale

I wonder if this random string of words (now present on sites with higher reputation, like HN) will feed into spam training systems, and now it won't be spam.

It's interesting to hear of requiring code reviews approved by the main office team. That's a strategy we've adopted on my team, and I got pushback for it. Good to hear that it's not out of the ordinary. The technical qu

I don't think this is practically much different then answering one thing. If you give one answer and 3 "I'll get back to you on that"'s-- this creates a promise of a future asynchronous answer, which is only as goo

It's easier to consider this question with empathy: imagine times where you replied to emails partially, answering some (one), but not all questions. Ask yourself why you did a partial reply. Then, when you ask questions of others, app

I'm impressed with the introduction this article gives to the WSB community: the acronyms, the broad thematic views of the financial system. They've captured it extremely well. Through the thick of it, folks spent a great deal abo

There's been times where it's the right thing to get involved, and other times when it's not. For example, we had an issue with full ticket completion: sometimes 3 of 5 requirements would get complete, and then the work was m

Whenever I try to do OKRs, and we got coaching from the business side, we're always told why it isn't a correct OKR. It's a process that never leaves me or other stakeholders with a positive sentiment. After a few quarters, e

Fortunately, you do have options for what will and won't get around the human filter, when it comes to choosing your weird character. For example, a human knows that in name "John[Emoji] Doe", the [emoji] isn't likely a

The simplest way to detect recruiters reaching out to you without much thought is to use weird UTF8 characters in your LinkedIn name. The recruiter's message will be canned, but parameterized with your name. The parameterization gives

If your income is $100k and you save $90k, spending $10k, after 3 years, you will have saved $270k. With growth, you might have $300k. To support your ongoing $10k annual expenses, you'd only be spending 3% of your portfolio. The math

It depends on the engineer. Some are interested in steering the direction of the product, but a majority are not. Coming in, picking up Jira tickets, and clocking out is enough for many software engineers. I don't blame them, and in fa

If not even Microsoft is willing to make that investment (given its vast resources), it's unlikely any smaller players would. I agree with the sentiment (diversity is good), but it's extremely expensive to build a browser. Maybe t

I see lots of comments on licenses. A FOSS license isn't a "I promise to host the built version of this artifact on npmjs.org forever" license. IANAL, but that's a right the developer grants to NPM when they choose to pu

I am curious how the 99.98% SLA compares to other payment networks (eg: Visa, etc). A bit apples to oranges, since the transaction volume is different.

Kilobyte budgets, in some scenarios, do not matter. If you're targeting users in areas with high or limitless data caps, and have 4G or better connection speeds, the choice between React Svelte etc. is an academic exercise with respect

There's a lot of ways to raise wages without prices. You can reduce profits. You can reduce staff (paying each staff member more). Why should this be the consumer's problem?

I mostly agree with this, but I would add a secondary construct on top of it. Sometimes you want collections of things to appear identical. You might want a component, that as part of its own public API, abstracts away the usage of the spac

Even lowest common denominator has gone too far. Querying "Barcelona" gives you 100% search results for the League team above-the-fold. You must search "Barcelona, Spain" to get information on the city, which then gets y

Given how people already will say anything for a raise, I don't see how posting salary ranges in JDs changes those claims. As the employer, you still set the raise. If people want to double their compensation, they aren't vying fo

By posting the salary, you can let the 200's and 50's self select. Sure: some 50's will aim for 200 roles. But since you're speaking to everyone anyways, you aren't relinquishing the ability to determine a candidate
