Unless of course he sees an error and runs `git push --no-verify`. I'm not really saying any of the advice around git workflow is bad. It's that too much time spent on process instead of development is. If you take the advice fo

My biggest problem with "A successful Git branching model" is that it scares people into thinking they have to design and commit to a workflow before they can develop software. Having a defined workflow is not a bad thing. And it

You sound like someone who went down the Haskell rat hole. As someone who also has visited that dark and twisted land... I completely agree with you (every post in this thread). I don't think I ever once experienced the supposed benef

If there's an IRC channel, mailing list, issue tracker, etc., I have a look at it. Active communities are bonus points regardless of the bug list. I also look at how friendly the project is to pull requests and outside development. I

It says that they invalidated the slide-to-unlock patent. I don't understand why Samsung would be dealing with that claim - their unlock is Android's unlock. I really hope they actually invalidated it instead of saying "Sa

How about you simply encrypt your data store? There's no reason you can't encrypt things in such a way that your operating system does not have direct access to it.

They treat Hangouts like Yahoo would. Great product that they completely hosed by not caring about the userbase.

Wow. My previous job had no phones only skype and most of us just had linux on our desktops. There is a solution - Cisco Jabber. They have a hosted solution now. I can't find a link currently and I haven't used it since we have

Former 1k flyer here. The perks used to be nice. I'd show up at Logan and they'd already have me rerouted if my flight was delayed (and of course, upgraded to 1st class). OK, so that was the one perk. That and the red carpet cl

Only 17 ads on that page. I think I'd have a word with my professor for sending me to a site like that.

Yep. I couldn't be bothered to grab my phone and properly link it, thanks. My phone is way over there <points to the other side of the desk>.

Agreed. I think github enterprise is worth it for companies, just like I think a Jira instance is a no-brainer. For personal/private, I'm perfectly OK with whatever open source solutions are available. I think it would be a good

We used Github enterprise at my previous job, GitLab at my current one. The only driver - GitLab is free. GitLab is painful if you have a lot of experience with Github. Feature comparison is pretty similar, but then again a feature compa

We have one of these in San Francisco. I got an advertisement on my windshield along with my ticket, funny enough. Brilliant advertising. I signed up immediately. Now I don't even need to scan my ticket in the app. It searches cour

The benchmark is a little strange. It has a range of 723 requests (CherryPy) for a plaintext hello world to 6.8Million (ulib) for plaintext. I looked at the Flask numbers and they don't compare with my own - I got between 3 and 4 time

I've built with Flask, Tornado, and with Node/Express. Flask/Python blows Node out of the water where performance is concerned. That shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Flask has a significantly faster ramp up time than

Technical interviews are silly exercises IMO. You have a multi-month ramp up period and you have all kinds of environment specific things to deal with at just about every employer. Nobody in real life gets asked to program on stage or for

A decade ago, I lived in an area where people lost houses left and right. One neighborhood had a 50% foreclosure rate. Those people all lost whatever equity they had and home prices have gone up significantly since. Of course more people
