Well said. I have no data to back this up, but I feel like a lot of remote workers prefer smaller cities that still have lots of amenities - think Portland, Austin, Madison, Boulder. You present a solid blueprint for even smaller communitie

They are still making movies in the potter universe. The current one has grossed 150 million in a month. I bet universal studios and Harry Potter legos aren’t doing too bad either.

I am currently having this debate as well. One angle to consider: Medium presents a path for your writers to grow their own personal brand - instead of writing on medium as a company account they can write as their personal account. The pop

You can still find VB6 jobs. Overwhelmingly successful platform that continues to drive Windows market share. Binary compatibility sucked but COM was ultimately worth it.

At some level an IPO is just like another raise. Any article or advice about not taking VC money applies.

Great piece, there are things for developers to think about but sales and marketing teams can learn even more.

Summoningsalt has really raised my respect for speed runners. His narrative ability is top notch as well. I wonder what his day job is.

The author of the article describes the problem as such: > When a patient with a complex medical history like Michael arrives under my care, it’s like opening a book to page 200 and being asked to write page 201. Even Epic doesn't

Or is it a matter of time until a high-enough ranking cadre gets his medical records leaked and the Chinese government enacts their own form of HIPAA.

This is heartbreaking. As someone at the core of the technology trying to correct some of these problems, the biggest problem is the fragmentation of the market. This is the government certification data for inpatient software: https:&#x2

I laughed at the copyright comments. I worked at a company that had a linter to check for proper copyright comments on each file. To be fair, the code was distributed as part of an on-prem deployment and interpreted, so any customer could r

It's a shame the data stops in 2010 - I bet we're seeing an even larger boom due to HITECH. Technology has not solved many problems in healthcare. Medical coders for example, are still a thing, even though everything is tracked el

Fair enough :) The complexity that my brain could handle 15 years ago has decreased, and the amount of real work I need to get done has increased.

This was my experience as well. It reminded of running Gentoo Linux a long time ago. Awesome feeling of accomplishment, but not practical if you have a day job.

The Chinese government has something to do with it too. The 5,000 years of history narrative helps prop up the idea of “One China” as well as claims to Tibet and XinJiang.

Blatantly ripping this off from Stratechery, but DOS was why Mac lost in the 80s and the end of the day a GUI OS is just a feature. Apple had a clearly superior UI, but the distribution and adoption of DOS allowed windows to take it by stor

Great job distilling the essence of scrum into three bullet points, I wouldn't disagree with those. Here's the common pitfalls as I see them: 1. Sprints offer flexibility but unless you educate the whole company waterfall + gantt

I came in here to post exactly this. It's hard to demonstrate but I will take time to listen to a candidate if they have a horror story about debugging something painful. Occasionally there will be a post on HN about someone who debugg

Full disclosure I live in State College. Football is a dangerous sport yes - but we have bears here. Both football and all activities the Outing club did can be safe. The same can be said for fraternities, if responsible people are involved

I think we’re not getting the full story. This same university tolerates fraternity culture that literally killed someone last year. What ever actuary looked at the outing club had to have looked at the fraternities too. I wouldn’t be surpr

A lot of these items are process points. The whole point of scrum is that the team determines and refines the process over time. Scrum is not a process but a process creation framework. I agree with most of the comments so far this is bad m
