I've also spent a lot of time on a side project (gravametrics.com). I never spent $40k on it but I've instead done everything myself and it appears to be a non-starter. I think you need something with a very concise value prop I&#

Why is the HDMI port not an option here. It presumable can do sound and picture. Is the problem just wanting to use like the webcam and build in ports and such ?

Few problems with this: > Don’t attach your identity to your code Others in your team will. Example here is a craftsman taking pride in their work. Think about that the next time you are reviewing someone elses work. > Security > R

I've worked with devs who never looked up anything on the internet and tried to do everything from memory and their code was shit. I think here it may have been something else that made this team highly productive. Maybe they had more

All these fancy self drive cars I can't afford on a UK Principle Dev's salary so it's interesting but I'm not sure how mass market these things are or will ever be.

I'll echo I'd love to see a new stargate series. Maybe take off from where universe left us ? Another team gates to the Destiny.

Mostly money, there's plenty of start-up's in europe but the funding is much less than that from USA VC's. There are exceptions to this rule but overall funding is less.

Most of the young grads I've mentored have been a pain the bum, seemed to not want any help and generally had a bad attitude.

I use chrome and you have to enable the special flag for that and I'm not doing that for a single site. I think it's only needs a really small amount of css i.e. some padding/margins a slight change in the background colour a

This is kind of shocking. Most of these are false alerts and negatively impacting this persons day to day life (who takes a laptop to a park!). If that was me I'd either take myself off the on call until the false positives had been fi

Holy wall of text. I'm normally ok with these things but that site could use some CSS.

One of the interesting things about hiring in tech is that most companies when they try to hire will say it's very hard to hire someone. On the other side of that I see that the same company will get dozen to hundreds to resumes /

It is quite annoying been working now for 16 years in the industry and seeing someone straight out of uni make more than me really rubs me the wrong way. I suck at interviewing though (nervous) and in my area of the world I'm quite wel

Hmm yes a very common situation actually. I suspect this will lead to the collapse and dissolution of the company. Hopefully the OSS part will continue.

"never attribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance" This is a US based org so they probably have no idea what they are doing around PII data other than what's required by US law and even then.

I'm pretty sure that those "Got it" cookie consent popups achieve less than nothing. Not only do they not comply with GDPR but the also piss off users where the GDPR doesn't apply. Also the CSS for the popup seems broken

Because features trump everything else when it comes to enterprise software. Teams are often working in Parallel on features and so will duplicate work until the whole thing becomes a giant mess.

I write all my notes for day to day in a plain text file on my desktop much better than a notepad tbh.

Seen this before with google. I accessed a "sensitive" scope so I needed verification and I'm almost 100% sure this was offshored to some sweatshop. You had to send them a video showing how your app used the scope which I did

Surely age is relevant though. If something is very old it's priority should increase as it's in danger of never being fixed in the lifetime of the product or being superseded when the feature is re-architected / removed.

To be honest I would just throw SCRUM into the trash if I could I think it's garbage but following some not quite SCRUM method which is what most companies do is actually insane. The whole process becomes a micromanagers wet dream.

Send him this link: https://www.scrum.org/resources/what-is-a-daily-scrum From the horses mouth: "The Daily Scrum is Not a Status Meeting" Or maybe see about getting him certified.

I hate DSU to be honest for this exact reason there's no way I'd way a whole day. I feel compelled to explain though that at the very least there is a definition of what you should be using it for and few companies I'm work w

No it's not. The MOT is a test that you have performed maintenance so the example stands. You can do 0 maintenance and still get your MOT. likewise in software you can do zero maintenance and still have a good well working product that

For non-tech people the code should be a black box they shouldn't know the internal details. In terms of refactoring there is no way to give a Cost Benefit analysis as that's too subjective. This should be a maintenance cost that&

The DSU shouldn't be for non-technical people. They literally should not speak at all during this daily meeting if they are even there. It's for Devs only to make sure they are not blocked and they are communicating what they are
