Irc as a service. You can pay with money instead of losing time maintaining it. It is more accessible being in the browser so non-technical people can adopt it more easily. Yes, they added bells and whistles like threading, emojis, and sn

I've had Atlassian's bitbucket team reach out to me after I expressed frustration in a survey. It was a manager and a developer on the call. They listened intently. I think the call lasted at least 30 minutes. I think bitbucket

Even without any improvement, I don't want to have to worry about having multiple cords for my phone. I charge my phone at night while I sleep, so as long as it charges fully in a couple of hours, that's "good enough" i

if apple would have moved to usb-c, I would have jumped ship to the iphone 13 mini when I needed a phone. Sad that they won't be making them for a while.

Not OP, but in our case, there was a package that had a dependency for python3.6 but not for python3.8. Our production environment was python3.6. Devs rebuilt the requirements.txt with python3.8. When we attempted to use the requirements.t

One of my issues is grabbing the phone to kill time while waiting even for a small amount of time. Ordered a bagel? Let me grab my phone for the 2 minutes it takes for them to call my number. In an uber ride? Turn on the phone... Waiting

I keep a work journal in markdown on the computer. Like you said, it has the benefit of being easily searched. I also keep a personal journal that I write in more freely once a week. I don't have the "search" requirement th

Anecdotally, I've found dream recall linked to novel experiences in real life. When I expose myself to new environments or interactions I tend to recall dreams more. Have others noticed this?

This was a slow process, but: 1. Regular written self-reflection, i.e., keeping a journal and 2. Re-framing "failures" as learning experiences; forgive yourself helped me a lot. The written part was important to me because it fo
