"YAGNI stands for “You ain’t gonna need it” and tells developers to keep things simple and only design and implement the things that you know you are really going to need. It can be tempting to think that in the future you might need f

On the banking thing. In NL we have Bunq which is a virtual bank with banking license. It combines social with banking. The idea is nice but I'm not sure if the world is ready yet. https://www.bunq.com/en/

I don't know what the author of the article is reading, but the information I read says to use REST for your sync communication which require realtime feedback and are blocking anyway (like authentication). Then use message queue mecha

Usually it is because of stock and stakeholders that a company splits, not because a CEO likes to split his or her company. Stakeholders might demand a split so problems with one company might not influence stock price of the second.

And here I am. At the end of a comment feed with many opinions about a poem everybody knows. Wondering if I should have known this poem before I read it today for the first time. Or if I could wave it away as just a USA thing. Written by US

Exactly my thought when reading the article. They even state that it can't go past it "by definition". Well, apparently it did. I can only imagine marketing and sales departments being involved as I cannot imagine a person wh

As with most things in life things are not that black and white. You are referring to the BFED extremists whilst the article is maybe referring too much to the cool frontend extremist. I work for a large medical company in its platform depa

I think there has been a misunderstanding. I never meant to say there is no place for the work of the author. I merely wanted to say that saying academic work produces nothing, as the reaction I replied to stated, is shortsighted. I complet

I mean the author no harm, nor want to talk bad about his work. His work is very cool and I like the amount of information that he gives. Yet, this is far from comparable to academic work. I am inclined to say that you mixed up the sides in

In my opinion you could have chosen a far better moment to launch, and a far better launch than the current. Don't expect your potential users to start digging for info for themselves (launch content) on a product they don't know

This is actually similar to the work of a company here in the Netherlands, Eindhoven ( http://www.synerscope.com ). Infovis on big data. From what I know is that they spent a lot of time on performance in the financial scenarios.

Is this a serious question? Start driving on the right (pun intended) side of the road first! For the cookie: the reason is that the hand signals used to indicate braking generally involve using your 'road side' hand. In countries

Aah, crossings of numbered streets. You must be living in the US? Numbered streets are relatively rare in the world. I invite you to Google the street names in Amsterdam, capital of the Netherlands. That logic won't work there. However

I'm afraid that you should have waited a phase or two before posting this on HN. I wonder if users will ever see your next phase. A tip for the future would be to better consider your moment of first introduction. All of the comments i

Well, you can run that argument for a lot of things. Sometimes it is more important to protect the system which will bring good in the future. Costs go before the earnings (no pain, no gain). If you let these things go off, next thing you k
