Most of services are not really critical but customers want to have 99.999% on the paper. Most of the time people will just get by and ignore even full day of downtime as minor inconvenience. Loss of revenue for the day - well you most like

What's with the "everything has to be monetized" or optimized for earning? Why do people have to earn money on their hobbies? Why a person can't just publish stuff for others to read? Why should we be obligated to pay? I

I think that’s not crazy at all. You can run TypeScript in Node already and you can run Playwright scripts directly in TypeScript. Next logical step is that browsers start running it directly.

I think that a lot of people are fine with intellectual property theft because most of people don’t have much valuable intellectual property. No one steals from them. So far AI companies were settling by throwing VC cash at it so the vocal

There is also a huge difference between “hey I am leaving at 5 because I have life outside of the job” and “hey I just collect paychecks here”.

I guess Apple is big in video production and animation with some ties via Pixar and Disney. Since Jobs started Pixar and it all got tied up in myriad of different ways.

That’s why we have daily and other “ceremonies”. But if I get $1 for every comment nagging about daily standups I would be rich. I guess the ones nagging about daily rather be interrupted every 30 mins. Sometimes there is this guy like we h

Another point of view on that. I work on SaaS platform as engineer. We can have some people from customer A asking for bunch of fields to be mandatory - just to get 6 months later people from that company nagging about the fields saying our

There is so much wrong with idealistic approach that I actively oppose “good practice cottage industry” like Uncle Bob. Not remembering sql or details of different joins - after looking it up how much time does it take to kick back in? I do

Exhaust fumes were easy to optimize. Lots of particles cars emit are from tires and break pads. I think someone was measuring that but I don’t have sources but most likely I read that somewhere in the comments of HN.

It is not only being first. It also is about responding to customers - not fun part is your customers don’t care about your app. They have to use dozens of different apps on daily basis, so when you have customer interaction you better be a

Not the OP you asked but. I think it is sour grapes that new CTO didn’t know shit and even did full embarrassment on display - yet tech guy who knew his job was let go most likely with his team just because CTO thought whatever they were d

I guess for me important point is that it is not technical issue and we already have all technical tools/processes to do really big software projects. Even if people dislike scrum, find Git complicated and don’t want to open up JIRA -

There is no solution because these projects are not failing because of technical reasons. They are failing because of political scheming and bunch of people wanting to have a finger in the pie - "trillions spent" - I guess no one

Like OpenAI is losing money on each user - isn’t it valuable or is it? If they close tomorrow because of lack of new funding would you say whatever they created wasn’t valuable?

Most of the time ROI is not there just like with unit tests. You don’t need 98% of commit messages ever again. Yes when you need those 2% most likely it is for important reasons but usually not so important to make all the other mulled over

Just look how it goes with GitHub everyone has some BS repos and then also they spam projects to get contributions for CVs. Hacktober was the worst but I think it went away because of BS spam contributions. CVE and in general security issue
