Kanban is not a method. Kanban is a way to structure tasks and activities.

I'd say the direction you are going is correct. And I would add that the big payoff is in understanding of fundamental problems, not libraries or algos. For instance you should know how TCP/IP works and HTTP works (not just theore

At the same time the board will finance the fancy new buzz words though. So combining both requirements I would say the art is in trying to use tried and tested technology to fulfill buzzwords.

What a ride. I really disagree with almost everything that's written there. So many things are even factually wrong, or with such a limited perspective that they are very likely missing the point. For instance, what he describes is not

It's not the first time I hear it, but what is it supposed to mean? Is there a single thing that can be called "linux userland"? Also, I doubt that someone combines Linux kernel with Windows XP userland. So in some regard all

Not sure why you think I would disagree. I'd say that is exactly my opinion, so I wanted to share that googlable term with the other frustated people out there.

Not to say I would be a great fan of Linux, but I think at this point it's quite clear it's the huge winner of OSes. Nearly all servers run on it nowadays, I think all relevant smartphones (not sure though, correct me if that'

Also there was a car between the truck and the Tesla for some time. Since they are not specific about the timing, the car in front might have just avoided the truck which leaves little time for sensors below the lights to even register that

Think about it the other way around, that you would lend someone a significant amount of money, that you could also invest in stock, into your own business etc. I think 1.5% is really low, when you think about it that way.

This is a very scientific sounding description that basically says "anything can happen". I mean our current economical system exists since WW2, so you can't even fit 2 40-50 years slices in there. And while the environment i

Yes and no. In the examples given it's wrong, since it's not a topic where blockchain applies. But the moment you order any of these products, having a blockchain that includes buyer and seller might be nice, since you can lock-in

"Why it's so hard to fix <X>?" Very easy question. There are people who profit from how <X> fails. The reason it bothers you is because you are not one of the people who are profiting. You might not be profiting f

the first time I heard BOSH in a CF related youtube video. There I thought it would mean the company Bosch and was quite surprised how advanced this company was in container technology.

This is only very small amount of information, though. Of course it depends on the team. I think even at the crappiest of employers you will find a team or two that are not as painful to work with. And since this platform here allows more t

Of course with the Enterprise license you'll get support, meaning we offer you access to a free Web1.0 form, which is much better than an email address because it will completely ignore all your new lines, and we guarantee that we will

I feel that if you put this in front of a CEO of an ISP he will really not understand it. It is so very, very common in business world that you find an argument to ask for more money, which is why you will ask for more money. The question f
