First people complain the app store has a ridiculous approvals process and people keep getting rejected unfairly. Now people complain that they are too loose and letting in shovelware. What’s it going to be? I wonder if I made an app that w

That culture also still exists. People just stopped reading it. The way I see it, that culture has improved. You see, there are still more blogs than you can shake a stick at. What left isn’t the content, it’s the money. Blogs are for peopl

What is up with the people who keep insisting RSS is dead? It never went anywhere. It’s some kind of twisted comedy sketch where someone insists a person is dead when that person is standing right there next to them. I have used RSS continu

I am absolutely going to try this. One question. Is there any way that if I click a JIRA link somewhere, like email or Slack, that it could open in the TUI instead of in the browser? I just can’t imagine that being possible.

I believe it’s a bubble, and that it will burst, but I’m only a little worried about the market. Yeah, there could be a sell-off of tech, but the people who sold will reinvest elsewhere. Also, 401ks still exist. Every week people get payche

I have seen some events doing very well and some doing very poorly. There are some factors not mentioned here. The biggest is cost. Travel, especially lodging, is very expensive right now in major cities, especially in the US. People just c

Building a PC in the 90s wasn’t much different than now. Sure, you had to use ribbon cables instead of SATA cables and M2. Also had to deal with ISA slots and later on PCI/AGP slots instead of PCI-X. The biggest difference was the shop

I’m not convinced because all of these examples gave people a pittance. $1000 a month at most? Give me a break. If someone is drowning, you can’t give their arm a little tug and claim that as strong evidence that pulling them out of the wat

Clearly you have only worked at large tech companies with organization, processes, hierarchy, etc. Most places don’t have a PM, or even know what that is. They don’t have a cadence or a triage. What you are talking about is a rare exception

Sure. But they want it tomorrow. When you offer to build a real solution, that sure is a lot of work, time, and expense to give them something they could have instantly. A tough sell. Also, volunteering yourself to do a lot of work on top o
