I didn't have a very high opinion of Jira until about version 4. In recent updates, a lot of the clunkiness of older versions seems to have been cleaned up. Until recently, my team was the only developer group in our company using an i

I like the way you've implemented this but what practical advantages does it have over adding the line alias zack=ack -i --ignore-dir node_modules --nojs to your .bashrc (or .zshrc or whatever) file?

I have terrible eyesight (somewhere between legally blind and failing a drivers' license vision test) and I find my eyes are usually less tired at the end of a day working on my retina MacBook than they were after a day of using my old 1440

I'm happy to see relevant promos here as well because I would miss out on them otherwise, but it's a slippery slope. Perhaps we could have a convention for post titles or a separate section for them? Apologies if this idea has been floated

I could have been clearer in my original post. Let me clarify by addressing your points. 1. People get into planes and cars every day routinely because we have been using these technologies for decades. Any new technology that comes along

This series of posts has been really interesting. At first I was dismissive and found myself disagreeing with a lot of the assessments but the explanations of why one language's approach is better from a beginner's perspective can tell us m

What sort of timeframes did it typically take for these sites to become profitable? Are there any trends you've noticed or other details you wouldn't mind sharing?
