Looks good. On other suggestion I thought of, would be to put a QR code on the hosting screen. I was thinking it would be easier to use for a pub quiz/conference as it removes the need to enter the url. Host puts up their screen on a p

"Article says fired or pushed out" So I presume HR had a chat and offered them a pile of money to resign - or if they didn't accept, indicated there would be an investigation into their behaviour. Presuming they didn't c

It's pretty good advice, if you're Nintendo and spending a fortune trying to provide support advice to people with crappy router config/connections. Yes it's entirely likely to cause other problems - but probably going t

Yep Like articles with embedded twitter/reddit posts in them. Sure it gives a primary source for whatever topic/view you want to support - but aside from "one person might think this" is pretty irrelevant.

That's really nice and clean. As constructuve feedback, maybe it would be good if there was a quick way from the landing page to see how the quiz works (animation or short video). Maybe there's a better way I didn't find, but

There's the original IT screw-up - but I think the body of the sory is around the ineptitude of the elected governor. Not specifically that he doesn't understand how the web works - more that he didn't care to find out before

shrugs Not to my taste, but you've got to admire somebody so pissed off with pixelation, they've created a project.. I was disappointed at the issues - I'd anticipated there being amusing complaints.

I must confess, I hadn't actually read the 2nd half. Also that I'd mis-read the question - I'd assumed it was being played with one of the variations, but the variation being used wasn't shared with the participants. I w

Sadly I am. Although I'm idly just considering putting a magnet on the scan-head of a flatbed scanner. Could then just use tasker to detect the passing of the magnet as a 'page-down' scroll on the screen.

But I'd then be asking for a clarification of "life and death" Given a problem that's "Life and Death" - my take is that being unable to solve the problem is likely to 'be death' chips all in, presum

They're a little bit pretentious, I'd agree - but handy to see how somebody thinks. (I'd never heard of "2 generals" before - so had a fun "Oh that", "Noo, then that doesn't", "Maybe if

But I'm only killed if they don't say blue and end the game on that - if they stay silent the game runs forever. So still think it makes sense to say it. It might get through and they repeat and we win. It might not, and they&#x27

Then as I mentioned below, you neither of you send a message and the game remains open indefinitely.

by goldcd 5y ago
Well in that case, you just don't answer. Your buddy on the other side also wouldn't be expecting you to, so they'll just leave the game running indefinitely as well.

There's solving the problem - and there's solving the scenario. I'd presume that a logical contestant would google blue to be the most frequently chosen random colour, and the two of you would just scream "blue" at

Yes - also there are many customers. PdO is a weighted amalgamation of them all.

On the bi-weekly sprint planning - yes. From what's actually on the backlog - definitely not. Opportunity Team meetings (or stakeholder chats - lead devs, architects, support peeps etc) always cover the general direction we want to go

It's free for personal use. imho quite a good business model - builds up good-will/recognition, and then if anybody is asked what to buy for "remote desktop at work", it'll get a mention.

Team Viewer's been my go-to for years (decades?) and always appreciated their free for personal use. In they're on Win10, there's "Quick Assist" baked in - which removed the hurdle of getting them to download and in

Sorry, definitely wasn't saying "hide projects from devs" As PdO I see my job (and also that of my partner Dev Manager) as sheltering dev from the shit churning shit above and my sole purpose as providing backlog/semi-co

“I do not need the presidency to make or refresh my soul. For greatness lies not in what office you hold, but on how honest you are in how you face adversity and in your willingness to stand fast in hard places.” That's not a bad quote
