I appreciate that what Jira is trying to do is hard. That might mean that it's trying to do too much and the industry would be better picking a different set of tools that don't try to do as much. However, the biggest problem is o

No. It just means that scientific purposes will have an additional tax paid to google. This will likely reduce use in academia but won't deter pharmaceutical companies.

I'd say the key insight that I see on #4 is that people do not consider libraries code. They consider it black box. It is the same urge that causes teams to label a code base they have taken over "legacy" and "in need of

I'm not sure that's true. Now, the white person may not end up being charged, or their punishment may be greatly reduced (due to race, class status, and access to council), but what makes you think that the police are less likely

I think there are a few key differences. The "old RoR" way assumed that all behavior is built by the server through ruby, until client side behavior was needed. Then, that was built in CoffeeScript. (or JS if you rejected omakase.

I use LogSeq as the general tool, and I started with a combination of PARA and GTD and have tweaked from there. What that looks like is that I use LogSeq's daily journals and extensive use of tags and properties. So maybe that looks li

The trope is the "but that" portion - that is, Western Europe and the US didn't have such concerns.

I think the key differentiator here for audiophiles is that they are allowing EQ from their app. I think if Resolve, Crinacle or similar gets their hands on it (though Crin has his own competition in the wired space) and creates a good EQ p

If I am a former coworker, and I reach out to you, and give you a URL, it's a unique URL that ties back to me as an internal referral. You are then given higher priority over the general stack: you have just cut through the automated t

Any software process is for management. That said, you don't need sprints for that. It just looks like a monthly meeting with your manager, where they say they're disappointed in what you have so far. Then weekly meetings, and the

That looked a lot more like Spiral development. Think about 3 month iterations where the design docs are built and approved before software development begins. It's a bunch of mini-waterfalls.

The hard part is that US citizens may not know they are doing business outside the jurisdiction of the US government. Are you rejecting the protection of the US government if the company is doing its best to obscure that fact and the associ

I think this is a mass generalization of accountants. Accountants are a wide varying type but the attention to detail is the key distinguishing factor. The only distinguishing feature of an accountant is that they care deeply that left colu
