He misses the point. Focusing on the customer IS maximizing shareholder value. Its just its focusing on a much longer timeframe. If you want the most money this year - you play the stock market or accounting games. If you want the most mo

It seems like we are too will be moving our domains to dnssimple. I just had to buy a new domain and I bought it on dnssimple. The UI is really nice. And fast! Now about your concerns... The point is that at dnssimple registration and dns

It might be really easy to learn. But after having programmed Ruby for any significant time Java is very unpleasant to program ;) Also just learning basics to do simple customizations is not enough. If something breaks you will not have a s

phrasing your search query like a real question might make sense. You can find people asking the very same question on some forum etc.

one of the tricks you can use is migrate on read. instead of having a global per-db versioning you have schema versioning on a per-record basis. each version migration is a function that takes a record in an old state a migrates it to a new

this is a common misconception about rails. Rails doesn't "force" you to use their way. You don't have to call your table "people" if your model is called "person". It just that you have additional freedom not to configure anything if you

it should reply to json requests with immediate secrete 'release' w/o the extra button clicking and in a simple json format. This will allow usage from bots etc.

This is one of the things that Rails gets right. There is no real need to be creative here. Rails just comes with a default layout built in, no need to 'choose your own' for the 'own' sake. It doesn't, btw, mean that you can't use your own,

If you have customer and credit card model, I'd implement the checkout process inside Order and OrderItem model classes. It would probably use an AASM state machine to represent the progress through the purchase etc.

wtf? "fourth-quarter earnings increase of 54%" was disappointing?

Or may be a client simply insists that customers absolutely can't tolerate a several seconds delays during the deployment ;(

WTF? You expect your consulting to work from the first fucking month? Didn't you read any articles about it? You are supposed to have some money reserves to keep you afloat for at least 6 moths. And you shouldn't expect your consulting to t

VCs usually invest locally, unless they find something really promising. Can this explain the fact that non local investments have better outcomes? ;)

this is not quite correct. it has a configuration option for this and you can set it to false. it was actually set to false as default for a while after rubyenv was released but then it reverted to true by default as I suppose it a better o

we are using vlad instead of capistrano and are very happy with it. it is much simpler conceptually. Also from several projects that I converted from capistrano to vlad it runs much much faster for the standard deployment process. I'm not s

the real "mistake" here was not doing 'pull' it was doing 'pull' while having uncommitted changes in the working directory. I'd commit or stash before the pull/

cool article about tracking down a bug in git. But this is really a small corner case and I can see how it went unnoticed for a year. I almost never use 'git pull' (I do git fetch and then "git merge" or "git rebase" depending on the result

Now it doesnt have the most appealing difference the regular kindle had over iPad. With it's IPS display it will be now just as impossible to read in bright sunlight.

Doesn't work on iPad, only ads can be seen, main content area is empty whitespace.

since there is not feedback link I could find, I'll keep it here ;) : - color labels are nice, but real text tags would be good too. lists are not enough. having a 'bugs' list doesn't help as soon as the bug moves to 'under work'

yeah. and people will ignore the warning, continue to use the app and then complain that it doesn't work wasting everybody's time.

Its cool that you can have a public board with public comments. But it would be even cooler to have a finer grained control over who can do what. i.e. have a board with some of the lists public read-only, others private, others read-write s

what framework(s) on the node side?

by Vitaly 15y ago
In my view this looks like a great tool for agile workflow. A replacement for the board with sticky notes. regarding the scale ... most if not all bug-trackers become a junk yard of bug reports. thousands of them. most never get fixed. lots

The only one of those that I'd like is multiple logins/profiles. I'd like to have a separate profile for kids. Preferably with bigger icons.
