But program managers and CTOs and other non-engineers at a company care about scalability, performance, technical debt and quality, right? Let's not pretend that these don't matter once you've gone past the "users actual

About once a month I start watching Larry Bird clips on Youtube, which sends me down a rabbit hole of 80s and on NBA.

Except you can not use GoConvey and still write a quality test suite. Plus GoConvey wisely separated the UI visualizer from the BDD, we use the former and not the latter.

I agree with this, but I read that line as meaning that there needs to be a politician that can communicate a technology focused long-term view of the economy. All of the US candidates are using social media effectively to communicate their

With more integrations. Put the two together though...

Django, Flask, PySpark, tons of solid GIS stuff, IPython Notebook, Ansible, etc. etc. So no.

Why does it say "Kevin Rose and n others like this." I don't have FB so I'm not logged in. Does FB have a list of "celebrity" users that it highlights when they like a post?

It's strange that you automatically assumed the four women were being patrionized.

Ansible, Redis, Postgres, Django, Linux, Nginx, Spark, Git, AngularJS, Elasticsearch. Thanks!

That isn't unique to Docker though, Ansible can do the same thing. Add Packer and Terraform and you're production-ready too.

And often tools that the developer masses love optimize for getting started quickly ("I can spin up an instance of Elasticsearch in one line!") instead of what is sustainable.

I'm genuinely confused: how can you develop a new database without a technical co-founder? I mean they clearly pulled it off but how did they even start?

Happy New Year. Let's work towards the best version of ourselves, as long as it isn't taking advantage of others.

Yeah it reminds me of that one episode of "Silicon Valley": "No one told me that I didn't have to take the money!"

Ha, I don't live on the West Coast.

Yeah that one always cracks me up. Every startup says "everyone here is really smart." Everyone says that. So everyone is really smart. So it doesn't matter.

If anything URLs aren't used enough in SPAs. They can help users share a state, for example, the results in the page when a certain filter is applied. Even data-intensive web applications can benefit from sharing and embedding. And eve

I made a conscious decision a few months ago to decrease the number of online articles I read. I realized that I wasn't finishing most of them (and most people don't) and if I wasn't learning any relevant to me then they were

Silly article, but isn't Trello doing pretty well? They take it to the next level by making lists of lists of lists accessible.

Yeah, but doctors don't care about startups. Or at least the ones that want to continue to practice medicine.

I agree, but notice the person's comment was diplomatic. It wasn't trashing Apple, just stating a different viewpoint. And he/she thought it was necessary to remain anonymous for that.

by ddw 11y ago
"Another developer who preferred to remain anonymous, out of concern for damaging their relationship with Apple, looks at it differently." Hilarious to me that if you even softly criticize Apple you have to do it anonymously in fe
