I have my own personal goals. The company has some goals. As long as there's some overlap between those, and I can achieve both goals at the same time, then we're all good.

Standups are about developers updating eachother. Basically no one outside the development team should be in the standup. I don't get what's negative about this.

I think the answer is that there is no right or wrong answer. Something that has worked well for me was to put my API calls in a seperate module and call this module whenever I need it (either in Vuex or a Vue component). Very simple.

The ugly in this article isn't really the ugly, it's the good. Nobody's holding you back from writing a simple ES6 module that handles API requests for you. Vue is a view layer, nothing more and nothing less.

I disagree. Vue is just a view layer, as is React. Angular is much more. Also, a lot of people are saying Vue and React are so different, but to me they actually seem very similar. They require the same kind of component-thinking and they b

Most Python libraries are a lot more mature than NodeJS libraries. This makes sense because they are also often a lot older. That being said, all ecosystems have their up- and downsides. Fpr example, I think package management for NodeJS is

I'm annoyed by these black-or-white statements. Docker isn't terrible. There are no "better" or "worse" way to do things. It all depends on what you are doing. Sure, applying Docker with the expectation of a si

I use pipenv and couldn't be happier. It's dead simple and it works. It is a bit slow. The problem presented in this xkcd has been fixed.

The daily stand-up is simply about "what did I do yesterday, what will I do today and do I have any impediments". It has nothing do with productivity evaluation.

In the case of scrum, the role of the Product Owner is extremely important. In theory, the PO should have both a solid background in product development and business development so that the backlog can be correctly prioritized, in order to

When and how to take care of technical debt is a universal problem that won't fixed by any development methodology or framework.

Wow, this article is blatantly wrong on almost every point the author makes.

I don't think lack of technical expertise to fix whatever needs to be fixed is what caused Google's demise in the messaging domain.

PRs are not getting reviewed. Solution? More PRs. That doesn't sound like the right solution. Seems to me the author didn't bother to get to know his team at all.

Even taking that into account, the non-US salaries are still 50% lower.

Your example would create an opportunity for companies to relocate to areas where where "poor" people live (and buying a house is affordable).

Perhaps you would send a survey, Bosworth chose for a different option. Internal memos leaking out to the public without context is a classic case of causing FUD.

Probably not, but it's three times the work. Do you want to spend effort in maintaining or developing?

This is 100% true. Who is holding you back to address things if they aren't working? I've literally never in my professional life have encountered a situation where honest feedback wasn't appreciated. If you encounter situati

This is not a problem of agile, it's a problem with the implementation of agile. A company that tends to micromanage that implements agile will use agile to micromanage. It's unavoidable.

The base ingredients for making friends seem to be the same as for committing crime: motive and opportunity. Both motive and opportunity decrease as you get older.

Why does Bitcoin need to become a major global currency? Even if were to attain a 0.01% global market share (very minor) that would still be a huge achievement.

Why send email at all? The only times I use email is when: - I need to formalize something everybody already agreed to (record keeping) - The content of the message is not all that important Perhaps your organization is different, but usual

Avoid metaphors in general. In my experience, metaphors lead to discussion about the correctness of the metaphor instead of the subject the metaphor was referring to. This is a waste of time.

That's your (negative) take on it. You can do something about being overworked without hiring (evaluate deadlines and scope, learn to say no). There's a good chance that hiring people without establishing the underlying cause of &
