I really hope this leads to some change some day. If router makers can be held accountable for not providing minimum security standards then maybe we'll stop seeing so many "me too" BS options and gimmicks and get a smaller s

Seriously... My favorite was in a lower level DB class we had to write, basically, a small PHP app connected to MySQL. On the first day of class the instructor stressed this class was about databases, not PHP, and would basically just cover

I've used plenty of other options- we even ran an internal GitLab instance prior to moving to BitBucket at my last company. Atlassian's suite of products are a safe bet because they're generally good products. I like the GitL

Except you don't have to leave traditional banking for Bitcoin, or the block chain in general. Join a credit union. Our small business accounts accrue zero fees, my personal accounts have zero fees. I talk to someone who literally live

No, but building your project in a language that currently costs 2-10x per production instance with licensing/hosting costs thrown in sure as heck can. I love C# compared to Java but I write more Java today because I hate Windows and w

On top of that, there needs to be some Dev to go with the Ops. I've seen some guys who come from a great SysAdmin background that are used to some Powershell or Bash but get utterly lost with Chef or Puppet. Not just that but the overa

Completely agree. I've worked every WFH arrangement possible: had an office in San Jose I'd visit once a month and worked from Portland the rest of the month, worked from home 50% and traveled 50% for consulting, worked from home

I like that the name Cheese Grater gets clarified with the README and I instantly got it and chuckled. One thing I've been trying to figure out is how to inject secrets into my lambda packages so I don't have to have them checked

I say typically as I pictured the teenager taking 30 selfie snaps a day for their Snapchat timeline. Or the bro grabbing a quick gym shot for Instagram. To be fair, I should have said stereotypically. The selfies where you're capturing

But if it worked for Patagonia, that operates in a pretty old industry, shouldn't there be at least a number of take aways that would apply to many or most industries? I've not read the book yet, so it's not a rhetorical ques

Yeah but one is an exercise in thought and engineering while the other is typically an exercise in vapidity and narcicissim. What the OP learns about this BT button could transfer to him building his own that works better, then coming up wi

Office pretty much doesn't work on the Mac either... I kid but the latest version of Office is really crashy on OS X, specifically Excel.

For all of our internal projects we don't push to production til 1.0.0- but because people have different opinions and we live in the world at large we don't have a hard rule of using someone else's code < 1.0.0. We'd

Heck, it might even be more common. Especially when you talk about huge frameworks like Spring for Java. Also, with CMSes like Wordpress I imagine you can't really change the status that easily if it's not returning what you'

I bought all the expansions in a Steam sale (I think it was like $5 or $15 for all of them, couldn't press buy fast enough). You're definitely right about BNW having a lot more to do between turns. I kind of forgot that World Cong

Having had to work with ADP and a number of insurance agencies before on technology projects- I can't imagine what a nightmare scenario it would be to try and automate all of these companies together. I could see how a company could tr

I agree. I like 5, in all the ways that it's different- but I always feel like 5 has a long expanse of seemingly meaningless turns until all of a sudden things get good. Then it will have another long lull between interesting events. M

In their defense that is probably the case of their MVC framework or CMS returning a 200 after not being able to match the route and not really them doing it on purpose. But yeah, I agree- (though I've missed them I'm sure) I pret

The page says starting at 99 and I literally couldn't find a buy button fast enough. After landing on the Indiegogo page and seeing how much it would cost for a few of the features I'm interested in- yeah, I'll pass. It sound

It's definitely not the best in the whole market, but in the sub $100 consumer router area? I've not used anything better. I replaced a couple much more expensive routers with these and I've been very happy. I feel like it is

It's much easier to dev, test, deploy, and migrate when you are only supporting your own technology stack. It's so much easier than supporting all the random platforms everyone has. Additionally, the account management side is so

That's a good point. I forgot how magical the trackpad is on the MBPs compared to every other laptop I've ever touched. I couldn't imagine bringing a travel mouse with me but I used to ALWAYS have one with my PC laptops.

Well crap... I have two C7s. IMO there might not be (or at least have been) a better mainstream router for the price.

We use Vagrant and Chef to provision everything, and where possible, I like to keep my OS relatively clean- so I don't have any databases or anything installed in OS X anymore. We have a number of Vagrant and Chef scripts that will tak

I agree. Fantastic is not what I'd use to describe npm. Mostly it usually works a majority of the time... It's tough to get reproducible deploys even when we have our versions pinned. Recently I ran into issues with npm global, Je

We did exactly that- create stored procedures- to get around certain transactional issues we were facing. We didn't have any problems being able to create them as we manage the schema outside of the application. In general this has bee

That's fair enough. I can see how the response starts significantly more aggressive than I meant it to be as a quick response.
