I would also recommend this. I've been using it for a while and it's amazing. Tightly integrated into version control, great team/project/task management, code review tools, great command line integration though arcani

You can accomplish most of that with Phabricator[1], except for the forecasting efforts. As for the forecasting; I worked at Amazon which had a dedicated JIRA engineer and that was the best I've ever seen JIRA being run and used. In

This post is interesting because at the bottom, Discord is soliciting for engineers. Gabriel Peal from AirBnB came and gave a talk at our company a few weeks ago and he shared at after AirBnB published their 5 part medium series[1], they g

I've never really gotten into any of Atlasssian's products. It seems like they make tools for managers with bolt on functionality for engineers (which may be why I never caught onto their products). I hope this is good news for

You're the MVP for digging through that package list :). Thanks for the answer, I guess that I was thinking about the other three companies social media platforms and not necessarily the data you mentioned.

This reminded me of a time back in the early 2000's when I tried to skin Windows to look like a OSX. I downloaded tons of stuff (themes, plugins, etc...) to modify Windows to give it that Aqua look. I was able to get close to the loo

Yeah, I think that was an early sign of what was coming. The symptom then, is the same symptom now.

It's imposed on every commercial user of their API which is why a lot of companies are also leaving Google Maps. I talked about this in another post, but Apple[1], Tesla[2], and Uber[3] are all getting off of Google Maps. It seems th

You know that's a good question. I feel like I would want to know though. Another thought I had was some sort of Machine learning Caller ID/CAPTCHA that just emits some garbage that only a bot would be able to dissect. I just d

I worked for bbn.com back in the mid 2000's before they went out of business. BBN employed some of the smartest people I've ever worked with, but the company couldn't figure out how to keep the business relationships going.

I have an interesting Jekyll performance story. I was trying to build a website [1] that was going to be the new destination for git information. The site is a static site and I figured that since Jekyll was integrated into GitHub, it wou

I was at WWDC last week chatting with a few folks about this (San Jose had tons of Bird and Lime scooters all over the place). One of the thing that these scooter companies (and deckles bikes) are doing is canalizing short trips. There we

I read a story a few weeks ago where people were actually taking the scooters. Then they would be marked as stolen, and the people would return them and collect the lost & found fee.

I totally agree. That's really what makes picking extremely difficult. It takes a lot of due diligence when searching for an opportunity to figure out which one is going to be great for your financial future. You also have to want
