I don't get this. Except for HipChat, (and I'd argue SourceTree), how exactly does Atlassian kill/destroy things? I have yet to use another ticket system for software development that is as decent to use as JIRA. I'm not

I use probably 70% Java in a given week, there was a time when I was 100% .NET, and there have been long stretches where the majority was overwhelmingly C, Node, Python, PHP. This is a long way of saying I've spent a lot of time floati

Contrived example, but one that probably accounts for a LOT of the !importants are utility classes, say .bold. If you put on that class you want to be sure it's getting applied, regardless of the styles which may come before or after i

Couldn't you argue that the majority of cars are built mostly with robots? There may not be a brake changing robot, but I bet there's a brake installing one. When it gets to the point that the automated labor is cheaper than or mo

The nice thing about 1Password (is for the time being) the fact you don't have to use cloud services and can manage syncing locally or via Dropbox. They're making a big push to the web version which we use for work, but I have a p

I was able to get a Windows version running under Wine on the latest version of Mint. On their site (I believe in the FAQ) they link to a thread with instructions on how to do it. It works mostly fine, but there are some gotchas they list o

The biggest thing with Arduinos specifically is that the cheap ones don't really have the capacity to negotiate proper web services. They can't handle HTTPS, you are not going to be deserializing JSON in RAM, etc. By the time you
