How else would they sync all of the shared stuff in your workspace? I'm more interested if they properly encrypt my data in transit and at rest and whether Postman employees have free access to our secrets.

Yup, same here and I'm on Android. I'm in my late-twenties and have spent most of my life on mobile devices and keyboards like most people here. Over the last couple of years I've been getting frustrated to no end by the exac

Like posts have said, whether training is fair use is not a matter of opinion, it is a matter of law. You can't use an appeal to your authority to make grand statements like this. Frankly, I don't care that ML/AI _needs_ this

I'm in favor of this. You can't ingest code that says "you cannot use this without attribution", put it through a bunch of if statements that strip the license, and then say it's "AI-generated". I don&#x27

It's cool how shorting pins seems to be a common hack for accessing devices. The way to jailbreak the Nintendo Switch also involves shorting the pins that connect the main device to the detachable controllers.

AFAIK, typical banks don't provide virtual cards you can spin up on a click to give to your employees for expenses, right? My company uses Brex and the few times I've had to use the card, it was really convenient.

Seems like you interpreted my use of 'enforce' quite heavily which isn't a good representation of our work culture. "We practice" would have been better phrasing. If you read the rest of my comment, I mention that w

I'm currently of the belief that this doesn't stop them, or they wouldn't so happily image your devices and send you on your way at US borders. Considering we didn't know governments were using and abusing Cellebrite unt

I feel bad for all the folks in this thread who have to deal with the manager's version of optimizing scrum/agile to the point where everyone hates it. At my company, we enforce a 'little a agile' culture where we take t

Agreed. I think they do a lot of good for the ecosystem, but there's no reason to give one organization so much trust and to continue centralizing everything you do on their platform. They're very, very good at cultural and enterp

How would the team have any idea whether they can meet a deadline without estimates? I like the way we've set it up at my company. In product/engineering, we use our estimates and plan our projects in quarters and project more or

Always interesting to see HN's take on regulation vs. liberties. Everyone here has benefited from regulations in various industries, so why are you complaining for this one? Cameras aside, I don't see what 'personal liberty&#

I disagree as an IC of 10 years that's now gotten into eng management. Estimating is a useful tool that allows us to discuss upcoming projects, surface unknowns, and build team understanding of the projects we're committing to. It

I don't think you need to limit the number of calculators to the number of cores. You can just store the history/results somewhere on disk or in memory. Which core doing the work when you press '=' doesn't really ma

It's not intuitive, but it's an amazing tool that has stood the test of time for decades. I used to struggle with Git, but after putting in a little extra time and studying it more, now I feel like it's a crucial tool in my t

Another take: Maybe many of us in software have enjoyed a long run of productivity driven by open source availability. That productivity is now baked into many software cultures (who doesn't assume they can use industry standard librar

What's interesting to me about these posts is that usually employees are complaining about their current job, or a very few experiences compared to the thousands of software shops implementing this framework with various degrees of fid

I heartily disagree with this take and your swearing doesn't help your point at all. Drive the speed limit, it's the law.

Maybe I'm just being contrarian to your comment, but I've always thought the US and other countries are silly for not automating basic traffic enforcement. Red light cameras should effectively catch 95%+ of people who blow through

If you look at the past from the perspective of the people who lived in in, then it's plain fact that many cultures oppressed women and that women were often seen as less strong, able, smart, etc. which led to reduced opportunities for

Did you reach out to AirBnB when that happened? This happened to me in Amsterdam once, the host cancelled a couple of days before we went (this was in 2018 or so). I contacted AirBnB support, and they gave me 150% of the value of the stay t

I don't have this experience, and regularly use Craigslist to buy and sell as I always have. Admittedly I never used it for social purposes since there were always other options, so maybe that piece took a hit over the years.

Statements with the word 'never' should immediately be dismissed, especially when you're being as pedantic as you are in your above argument. If I dissect your points with the same gusto as you dissect the article's: &gt

I think the repercussions are just so small that it makes sense to act like this. As an employee, your opinion of the CEO bears little. We've read on HN the few stories of only the most-qualified people being able to cause a stir in hi

I can understand this argument, however in this specific case we are forcing children onto parents who are in bad positions to raise them (or most wouldn't consider abortion), and our state does a terrible job at providing support to k
