3000 cases tested positive but from what I know, we're barely testing. Here in California as of today -- if you have a cough, and a fever, you will not be tested unless you have had international travel or known contact with a victim

Dogs apparently have a visual sample rate of around 75Hz, meaning they wouldn't see much in an old analog TV, but newer HDTVs might look realistic to them. https://thebark.com/content/heres-what-dogs-see-when-they-

Pro tip: Pick 'values' that don't require unlocking experience points, hitting milestones, or achieving things in this transitory world. Values that you can just do, now. E.g., love well.

Also, introverts need time alone. Quiet time. This is equally true for parents. It's not just a preference; it's a need. Without this, introverts are literally incapable of taking care of themselves or another human being.

Great post. I really appreciate engineering blogs written in this storytime format. I don't have time to dive into the implementation of Calico or <insert one of the 1,261 kubernetes projects here> , but I learn a lot from readin

Netflix open sourced a similar tool that watches API calls for a Role and then suggests minimum privilege changes to the attached policy document: https://github.com/Netflix/repokid

Glassdoor often has good hints. Whiteboard sessions focused on algorithms and data structures will probably resemble CS20X college courses.

Developers don't like: * Committing to dates and then being accountable for the results * Spending time planning, rather than "doing" * Admitting to business leaders that much of their work time is not spent writing lines of

Who prioritizes? On a large team, most tasks require at least some collaboration and discussion. Kanban seems very chaotic for a large team, with priorities constantly shifting. With sprints, everyone on the team is in agreement about the

Sprints are meant to be a tool to measure a team's velocity, defined as average amount of work throughput in X weeks. You don't know the average until a sprint team has worked together for several sprints on similar work. Sprints

by all_usernames 7y ago
The idea referenced in the blog post that sprints are "rushing" developers is just nonsense. At least in every sprint process I've been a part of, the developers are the ones assigning effort (points/hours) to each task.

It's an interesting and valid point, I think. Fear may motivate some to start changing and looking for solutions, but it has the opposite effect on many: denial is one of the most pervasive defense mechanisms in psychology. And climate

Right, only someone who has never really tried (that is, stuck with) a yoga practice for awhile would claim that yoga, even the westernized version, is "incoherent." The whole point of yoga is to have an integrative and harmonizin

The term "yogababble" seems pretty offensive to those of us that get something really useful from the practice of yoga. It also seems totally not necessary to pick on the practice itself or to single out yoga from the universe of

I manage a team split evenly between California and Eastern Europe. In an agile environment with many changes in-flight each sprint, or doing daily hand-offs (for a follow-the-sun support model), the communication overhead becomes significa

Organic farming includes crop rotation, fertilizer, soil quality, and erosion control standards that would hypothetically affect mineral contents. Monoculture (conventional corn or soybean for example) uses huge amounts of synthetic fertili

Anyone else notice the irony of Cook's statement near the beginning that the last model lineup has a 99% satisfaction rate? So why do we need new phones then? "People don't know what they want until you show it to them."

Even the basic billing concepts are too confusing. You pay for some Host count. You open the billing and usage console, and you see about 6 graphs for Hosts under two tabs. What's an APM Host, an Infra Host, and Agent Host? Which are d

I've known folks that have moved back to SF after years away because they were looking for the place where makers meet investors. For that, the city is the place to be. Also, it's the bees knees for tech meetups and generally bein
