Even teams with good team cultures can screw up their processes. In my experience, a bad process is one that 1) produces responsibility without accountability, and 2) does not account for process bottlenecks.

Your description makes the first company seem better in comparison until you stop to think the tradeoffs. There are always tradeoffs. My previous role was in a team run like the first company. There were sky high barriers to get code into p

Good to see IDE support for TypeProf type hints[1]. I've been doing a lot of work in statically typed languages lately, and spoiled by how good IDE integration is with the compiler. Ruby has been moving towards static types for a while

I built an API proxy using a CF Worker today. The deploy takes only 2 seconds. Its speed is its killer feature.

Mitch has always struck me as a singularly sincere and dedicated individual. His passion for the end user experience show in his every product decision. As a developer, I've enjoyed using his tools more than I should. Most enterprise s

What would you say is the advantage of Vantage over AWS's Billing Dashboard?[1] I can configure it to send me daily reports and notifications if the costs exceed my daily threshold already. Why do I need Vantage? ---- [1] https:/

The counter to that argument is that the brick-and-mortar chains don't claim to be platforms or marketplaces for other products. The business model of a Walmart is pretty simple. Buy wholesale, sell retail.

Jeff was still with the company when the last version of the policy was announced, i.e. "3 days from office, 2 days from home." It was probably the head of HR who came up with it. Jeff accepted it like, "Oh well." You co

Some of the comments in here don't show up on Haxplore until much later. It looks like the API response is being cached... which gives me a pause because navigating the comments is the best part of Haxplore interface.

A couple of more ideas: * Some way to go to the top of the page without refreshing the page. * Some way to load new posts asynchronously without refreshing the page.

Nice work. Minor issue, but when I open the Menu with M, the focus should be in the dropdown menu, so I can navigate it with the arrow up and down. Otherwise, works great!

Thinking back on it, we always used Terraform with Pulumi, which creates its own abstraction layer for a CF stack. It's hard to pinpoint where the root cause of the slowness was.. but in principle having fewer abstractions allowed us t

Terraform can be frustratingly slow at times. You have to realize that at the end of the day, it's an abstraction layer on top of the public APIs of a cloud service. If all your services are hosted on a single cloud, you don't nee

The biggest pain point of Yarn 2 for me has been configuring CI servers. With `node_modules` there is one folder you need to copy between build server to CI server, but Yarn uses some virtual directory system to link the packages, and I hav

After a day of trying it out, I have to say... this is really terrific. I was fully prepared to be disappointed, but I was pleasantly surprised by it at every turn. I hope I can replace all my yml files with a single Earthly file someday.

Ah, I see. That's pretty cool. But all builds are run on the same machine, which is not a deal breaker; it'd be nice to distribute them on multiple machines, as well.

After a cursory look, it seems like there is no support for parallel and dependent builds in the syntax right now. Is this correct? Are there any plans to support that? That's the advantage of CodeBuild spec files –– they let me specif

I tried this a few months ago. Many features were missing then. I couldn't set up backups, and connect directly to `psql`. It was such a pain. I don't know if they've addressed those issues yet. It'd be a hard sell for m

Maybe for the very small sellers, yes. But Shopify will be fine without them. They provide a lot of value to medium size sellers with a lot of turn over, through their app marketplace and integrations.

Reddit started allowing its users send cryptocurrency to each other recently as well, through "community coins." ResearchHub's model isn't that different.
