Modern businesses regularly use dozens of software systems woven together to accomplish their tasks. Which makes it difficult to even see what can/should be automated. You really need an overarching view of the business workflows and h

Looks like this app uses TOR in long-range communication. Although it's annonymous, your connection to the network is detectable and would trigger redflags in government monitoring software...

Personally I think that monetisation of open-source goes against the consumer of the OSS in practically all cases. - Open-Core::: Features are not added to core, as they want people to upgrade. - Consulting::: Ease of use is ignored, as if

Good idea, like vlogging or instagram stories for work. The only problem is getting people to do them and watch them. Also, one of the important things about synchronous meetings is discussion and conversation, this doesn't look like

Very cool, my only suggestion would be to use a mono-spaced font in the code-editor. Looks a bit weird with a serif font.

Additionally, a book can't even be updated or patched, which makes it inferior to the npm package manager.

A codebase tool to check for duplication. Something that can find repetition in a codebase, which could be extracted. Fuzzy matching for duplicated code would also be a great feature too. Not sure if exists, but it's something I'v

So it's a browser within your browser running on a remote machine somewhere? At first glance it seems needlessly complicated, but modern browser finger-printing is also incredibly complex. So this might be better than a VPN... As both

Mathematical notation finds elegance in brevity. That's why there's such an enormous alphabet of symbols representing important concepts. If programming languages strive for the same elegance via notation, you end up with someth

That is a brilliant paper, I expected it to be centralised around logical fallacies (which is how I view arguments/debates) but it goes into so much more detail around the nature of online debate. It's interesting to dive into the
