But that is the crux of the problem isn't it? Device/OS proliferation has made android dev pretty complicated these days.

Been watching this train wreck in slow motion for years. This has been a long time coming and I am positioned to profit from it.

Double that complexity if you also want a web app that works across all modern browsers. I wish the big 4 would get their act together and stop pissing on each others legs. FB is the most recent entry into this clusterfuck. They should be a

This is a goldmine. I've been compiling a lot of tips and tricks personally that I use to help train coworkers. I'm definitely going to cross reference and see if I can open a few useful PR's.

"Losing its hacker soul" Ugh, FB never had a "hacker soul". It is an abomination built on advertising and privacy invasion. It is the antithesis of the hacker ethos.

In private enterprise I believe it is perfectly acceptable to champion a social cause. However when a company goes public it does in fact become"psychotic entity". It eschews its social cause in pursuit of funding, and supplants i

"It's why we are here." Meh, I'm pretty sure now that Twitter is publicly traded it no longer exists to meet some perceived societal need and is now just a profit engine. I don't like it when CEO's flavor their

Serverless was nowhere near ready the last time I looked. Are they still requiring sn unrestricted iam profile? That is a non starter for most orgs. Also, I found working with serverless to be pretty unintuitive. You are relying entirely on

I love lambda's, but api gateway was far from mature the last time I used it (6 months ago). Unless they have made serious updates to the deployment workflow, feature set, and documentation I would not recommend building your products

Im not talking about defects, but malicious tampering. I may not be able to get a bomb on board, but I sure as shit can short circuit a laptop battery and start a fire.

This should be required reading for every PM. As an engineer the point about "doing the mental gymnastics" is the single biggest difference between a good PM and a bad PM. Well written/thought out specs guide my development p
