100% agree that Clubhouse > JIRA. If I hear a company uses JIRA, I will actually question whether I want to work there.

Yeah, the very first time I used Confluence I was in shock of how developer's at one time could have thought this was a good or useful product for discussing/planning code changes. For ticketing software, I find Clubhouse to be mu

I still maintain that JIRA has the worst WYSIWYG and syntax highlighting support, of any major code platform. It amazes me they are so dominant among developers.

I long for the day I can just write reformatted code in Markdown, GitHub style -- with three backticks and a language declaration --- and Slack syntax highlights the colours correctly within chats. This is such an obvious improvement for de

I will clarify that most of my experience is with the Pacific Northwest of U.S. and Canada, most of which now enjoys defacto legalization driven in part by the medical loophole.

Apple is one of the largest companies in the world. Apple can and should be capable of robustly investing in both its desktop line and its paradigm-shifting blue sky projects. Thinking otherwise is dangerously closed minded. Apple's

"Just developers" Developers are not trivial. Good developers lead to good apps, which lead to a better ecosystem. The technically savvy are also the ones who set the trends about what the rest of the curve adopts. This is only

From my experience, Mac's brew package manager ecosystem is actually quite unstable and prone to breaking. I know a few developers who believe that Linux's apt-get is generally more stable.

It's funny, I was in Amsterdam this year and different from the experience of most of my international visitors, the whole place felt restrictive in terms of marijuana, not liberated. Denver, Portland, Seattle, Vancouver / Vict

Our drug laws should approach psychedelic drugs differently from the rest. I strongly believe this.

This is a very true point and sad consequence of both globalization and technological interconnectedness. In New Zealand I have heard stories about how a few decades ago in rural parts of the country, pubs used to stay open well past nation

It also assumes the President is in complete control over the massive bureaucratic agencies he oversees. In reality those agencies often set their own priorities and have their own competing agendas. And yes, while on paper the President

Wow, this is fascinating. It is totally incoherent, yet interspersed with brief moments of consistent clarity.

They should have showed more info from the request headers, like the subject's type of computer and location based on IP.

I agree with you. I don't support this mentality -- I'm just making fun of it.

What I find more interesting than the story itself is how this DNS technique could be used for surveillance. Could anyone elaborate at a technical level what someone could do to prevent this kind of metadata in communications from being det

The real measure of success is whether the company becomes a cautionary tale before or after its exit. Just ask Marc Cuban.

Since they're producing an actual food product they arguably have higher costs than most software efforts that get investment backing.

In fairness they have developed an active and engaged online community with customer support that resembles a tech product I can't think of another food product that's done this, it's definitely a part of what's allowed

A cautionary tale that produces a fast-growing company now worth at least $100 million dollars? I'll take it.

And most software products are just skins around databases. What's your point? This notion that some development should be considered "high tech" while other development should be considered "low tech" is one that

Exactly. MacBook laptops have headphone jacks and USB-c connections but no lightning input ports. If I wanted to use my EarPods with the lightning end on my Macbook I'm screwed. Nor can I use the headphone jack or the USB-C ports on

I agree with what you're saying, but many, and I mean many , single page web applications get used for things that are essentially Web documents. If you're building a game or something interactive, I get it. But many SPA's

I agree. Though sadly keeping your JS validation messages in sync with the ones your server produces can still be a surprisingly high amount of work and headache. Many people can think of the time it takes to build functionality like this
