I hate them. Force me to go to my mailbox while I have a good password manager and just want to use that instead. I get the idea, but this should be an alternative, not a default. Also sends loads of single use emails that will remain for e

I like how their register page starts with: "Login with Facebook", "Login with Twitter". Makes sense to transfer users from the bad guys to the good ones, but feels off to me. I would expect such initiative to be email r

I've been completely addicted to Pilot Frixion pens. Perfect for sketching UIs or drawing charts (when like me you need several tries to get them right!). Not always reliable and ink not lasting long, but the ability to erase proper in

They're nailing it with this point. > Jig is not no-code! > Here at Jig, we don’t want to mislead our customers. No-code platforms do not magically remove the need for code, they just bury it in a maze of UI and DSL that only exp

I enjoy coding with Django. It's the framework that helped me make a smooth move from PHP/Symfony to Python-powered web apps. Not that I dislike PHP... just wanted to focus more on Python. Many thanks to everyone involved in the

People or teams managing software development workflows usually silently tailor them, fitting the reality of their constraints, often outside of Scrum and Agile (despite claiming otherwise in job descriptions or developer posts)! And that&#

Considering tech workers only. If a substantial number of them moves from employment to self-employment, being someone's boss may become a better deal. If this trend is systemic: - The value of workers willing to be employed will incre

There is a massive housing shortage in the Netherlands, isn't there? I agree on your other point but might be logistically complex and expensive v.s. Berlin for instance.

Yes, I think the UK will end up carving exceptions everywhere they can to keep Brexit alive from a political standpoint, but dead from a practical sense. Right now, the fear of the unknown is what's most likely pushing people not to mo

Completely agree. The grass is always greener, and moving to NYC will not come without challenges. However, post-Brexit UK is problematic on the skilled worker front for startups. Before, many European tech workers converged to London to wo

Worse than password rules, are when sites disable the ability to paste in the password in the 'confirm your password' field. Forces users to reduce the 50 chars crazy password they wanted to set using their preferred password mana

Would it be possible for EU to select a standard, and request each member state to tax non-standard products sold at an increasing YOY rate. This would give some time to Apple to figure it out while putting the words in action now without p

I use both Chrome (for work) and Firefox (personal) on Windows. Beyond a few specifics, I often can't remember which I am using. There might be many differences under the hood, but in a regular usage Firefox is really damn good. Even o

Same. I have to control myself not to include that !g on every query. Manageable, but makes it too easy to relapse.

What about click tracking from email? This is more reliable (server side) and a stronger signal of interest. Of course, you only track clickers and might have false positives if mail clients follow links for some reason but I doubt they do

I love the concept of bang operators, but sadly my usage is limited to: - `!g` if I can't find what I am looking for and am ready for a different angle. - `!` + another letter than g, typed my mistake. This results in an annoying searc

This is not that cynical! Apple pulled the plug on something they created on purpose (ID for Advertisers) without really understanding the impact of that decision on their own App Store bottom line. So many in app purchases are initiated by

This is a tsunami for ad tech. Facebook just being the tip of the iceberg here. Tracking or not tracking is not really the topic here. Rather, this is yet another proof of how abusive Apple is. They claim killing IDFA is for the sake of use

What I find interesting, is that those who were betting on Brexit were probably doing so thinking it might be a little bit tough in the short term believing the UK will end up being stronger in the end. With such a massive recession already
