Don’t mean to create a pile-on, but since you asked, yeah I should explain my barb: Is Jira a UX disaster because of just that? Or is it bad on top of that? My opinion - it’s both. The product has a ton of permutations, as you

This issue arises because, if the site allows any public sharing, the "create filter" UI gives team members the option to share a new filter with "Everyone", which sounds like an org-local scope but is in fact a public&#

Really cool project! Thanks for sharing. Maybe a dumb question (and I certainly haven't read enough): Any plans or projects that decouple language support from exporter/backend support? Bummer to see a bit of fragmentation there,

Thanks! Can't edit my post, but didn't expect such a positive response, really cool to see others offering an ear as well. OP's got a _lot_ going on here: fear of being stuck at a prestigious company; team/interpersonal

I worked for a "big 4" (Google) for many years, and now I lead the engineering team at a startup. I've interviewed many hundreds of people. And I've "been there" in anxiety about interviewing for something new.

It's a common "recirc" technique (recirculation). All that crap after the button/article? If you skim the first paragraph and are not interested, they want you to go there rather than press "back".

Mad respect, this looks so inventive. But as a coder by day / vinyl and controller DJ by night, shifting code around to gig sounds like a nightmarish personal hell! Am I missing something about how the tactile control works, or is it r

FWIW, this is the new foreward from the second edition printing, which is being released next week (Nov 18th). This has been on my reading list for a while, and never quite made it to the top. It's age plus a faint memory about Intel&#

Probably not much, but it's a silly comparison since newspaper classifieds do not work the same way: It surely helps that the newspaper is not managing the inventory, payment processing, photography, and customer relations on behalf of

So you want people to e-mail you more, but don't want to seem brash by just saying so in your voicemail. Right idea! I think the computer networking concepts of "quality of service" and "latency" are relevant: Train

Awesome job, it's inspired me to organize our own handbook similarly There is some really great content in here; the concepts collected in "Transparency" are second nature to me, but I've come to realize need to be spell

The real power savings come not from the switches themsleves, but from the application and scheduling architectures it enabled. Having full cross-sectional bandwidth between any pair of hosts means the bin packing problem is a lot easier.

Finally! Time to fly the flannel.. I built the first 3 generations described here starting in '04; it's awesome now to have something to point to, especially as FB has lead the charge on opening their own gear. And I'm sure i

How's the toolchain support / dev environment for the Nordic parts these days? I remember the "other" popular chips (TI CC2540 and friends) had a gross and expensive requirement on "IAR Workbench".

Yes: Check in a unittest that runs your linter, and check in the config as well (eg jshintrc). Tackle all the flagrant style issues until the test passes.

I tried hailing a random security Githubber or two on Twitter about the lack of an issues-only oauth scope; no response. I can only conclude they're holding it back deliberately, since it seems both a glaring omission and simple fix. G

Seriously. This is beyond crass. Not 2 months ago, I came this close to betting on and recommending FoundationDB. Today I would have been swimming in a world of shit (not to mention wasted time) had I recommended these guys. I'm neve

Yes. Let's not forget this is the same company whose patent draft diagrams were found to be basically wholly ripped-off copies of other public works. [1] I'm impressed with the thoroughness of HNers screenshotting and looking at m

I've worked with all these guys, and the most plausible reason I observed boiled down to anti-counterfeiting: in their view, data sheets are a map to creating register- and pin-compatible clone parts. While the knockoff market is very

Looks like an even more minimal version of WunWun ( https://www.wunwun.com/ ), which is a "write some unstructured text and we'll dispatch it" app, in NYC and SF. They hire and manage their own couriers tho.

Last I looked into this, it seemed that masquerading as a custom launcher was the way to go. Any reason to avoid this technique? Aside: As a long time Android hacker, it pains me to see iOS seems to do this better with "Guided Access&q

Cool find! The pictures (and one slide) show an Android phone being used on a "Dryden drone", looks like it might have been a prototyping platform. Would love to see more detail about this. Edit: Ah, here's a senior project

Saw it firsthand, it was like account roulette for about 5-10 minutes. Then someone hit the big red button around 11:50a eastern. Smells like something messed up in their session or caching layers..

It's not a shock; if anything I'm surprised they didn't shut down the issue tracker altogether. It's been little more than a glorified pastebin of generally poor-quality, unreviewed reports. Perhaps this is a sign someon
