Get rid of the problem employee, toxicity will extend and it will hamper communication and trust. If you’re having these problems with such a small group that should still be in the “all for one one for all” stage it’s going to continue and

That said, they provide a great value and I have an aunt that used them extensively to be with me grandparents while their health was failing, so apart from being a terrible experience for tall people I’ve very glad they exist.

Can you share some of the things you do in the hobby? It seems so much of it revolves around voice due to restrictions on traffic (encryption)

definitely, and something well discussed in the erlang community over the years. The problem it solves aren't ones that most people realize are there until you've built things and encountered them.

Ah, so you ping the lambda to have it ping the coded in website?

by dpeck 9y ago
Dumb question, never used lambda before, how often is this triggered? I can’t tell at first look through the code.

You may not be paying attention, even in just the fast food seafood there are tons of Captain Ds / Long John Silvers all over the US, not to mention the lower tier sit down restaurants like Red Lobster. Sushi is very common in coastal

Thanks for sharing about Scratch Jr. I had never heard about it before that I think my son is going to love it, not for the programming aspect of it but because he loves to make up stories with characters and being able to make them move ar

Is the choosing frameworks and technologies really a thing that CTOs do? That seems like more of a tech lead/architect job to choose the right tool for the job. I could see the cto pushing back on those choices from time to time if som

Yeah, in my experience Five Guys doesn't really compare. They're run well but nothing exceptional.

by dpeck 9y ago
They’re run head and shoulders above every other fast food restaurant, maybe the secret is paying employees enough to make that happen? edit: changed management to employees to capture more generally.

Absolutely, seeing the same thing happen but didn’t see the similarities with UI/UX until you mentioned it. That is right on. I credit much of it to the rise of people like Marissa Meyer doing similar things to the PM world as people l

Im not sure there is a better label, but I don't think that that makes it any less odd because I can't come up with one :) Looking at past episodes of this OP podcast ( https://www.thisisproductmanagement.com/episod
