Your example is right on the money. I used to be consumed by organizational disorder, and even worse, wasn't aware that it was happening. Agile is no magic solution but it can be a vehicle to creating organizational order if you need

My world has been (near) paperless for almost a decade. Perhaps I'm special?

This seems to be primary an American thing. I have never experienced the usage of security questions with non-American companies. Even Apple uses it, which is weird considering they're so proud of their privacy-first strategy.

Are you sure? I bet the iPhone 7 batteries simply haven't aged enough.

This is a great response imho. It doesn't fully tackle the issues I'm having with the approach Apple is taking, but at least Apple acknowledges its customers in a human way. This is almost un-Apple.

Why are big companies so inaccessible? It's a strange paradox to think that almost everyone uses Google services on daily basis, yet it is near impossible to communicate with Google itself.

I agree. In a perfect world React is probably a better choice. But the world is not perfect. I don't have time to investigate a gazillion third-party libraries and educate myself on best practices. Vue is a nice complete package with g

He did succeed, only he didn't define success very well. 1. His game got good reviews and did quite well. 2. He set a target at 700 units. He should've set the target at x units / month. Or, even better: x% growth / mon

To be fair, you shouldn't be copy pasting code anyway. But I do understand your feelings, any tutorial from before 2016 probably isn't relevant anymore.

Would be even more magic if I could switch provider by simply changing a setting in the settings menu (which is technically feasible using an eSIM).

Why not use the same secure element as Apple is using for Apple Pay for this?

That's true, but I dislike "essential" third-party projects anyway. Part of the reason I like Vue so much is because of the "official" Vue + vuex + vue-router combo (for React you have to use third-party libraries f

I don't get why people say this. Vue and Angular 1.x are only similar when you're comparing the templating engines. But how much of the work migrating to React or Vue actually involves porting the view? I think that's not a v

Vue and React are 99% similar with databinding. Vue/React are basically the same looking at it from an Angular perspective.

No stacked bar charts, unfortunate. Looks really nice.

Perhaps security isn't as easy as (often self-proclaimed) security experts think it is. Unlike them, developers don't devote 100% of their time to security. I couldn't care less about people standing on the sideline yelling a

That's weird, shouldn't that be a responsibility of your router? Or did you roll your own?

I suppose ageism is indeed a thing, but I don't it's specific to the inudstries people from HN work in. I'd love to see some numbers to back up claims about ageism in the tech industry. I wouldn't be surprised to see age

My personal experience is that there is a huge need for competent experienced developers who know what they're doing. I would love to work with people who have been through stuff and instinctively know how to seperate the buzz words fr

Are JS frameworks really easier than your good ol' fully server-side rendered websites? I doubt that. There are costs for everything, both for using and _not_ using JS. It's silly to think that only using JS adds a cost and nothin

Happy to see Bootstrap 4 moving to a final release. Beta 1 is already very mature though. I love it.

I would take that one step further and say the only deliverable is satisfied customers.

This could work, but it relies on highly competent autonomous team members who trust eachother. Often not the case.

This is not true for agile. The agile manifesto was in fact drafted by software developers. Also, agile doesn't prescribe any process at all, in fact, it does the opposite. Agile in essence is quite beautiful, unfortunately it gets twi

PoC is quite different. A PoC has to demonstrate a concept, it doesn't have to provide value. An MVP should be something that is used in a production setting. A PoC is usually followed by a "go / no go" decision, MVP is
