Don't forget about Mattermost. I work in fin-tech and we've been evaluating Mattermost because of on-Prem.

Whole Foods is the only place I've ever returned food. Once, I returned some clams and muscles, because when I got home, it was obvious they were bad. I also returned some produce that literally wasn't eatable the next day.

Seattle already went through this once, back in the early '70s during a crash in the airline market. There was even a rumored billboard put up that said some thing like "when the last person leaves, will someone turn out the ligh

I'm a big fan of OneNote. I use it on my Mac, iPhone, Windows machine, and Android phone to keep a bunch of stuff in sync. I have one section that contains a Note for each week. I archive the notes after awhile. Each week I start a n

cmd-tab to a different program. Not really a show stopper if you want to use org-mode in Emacs....But then you may just end up cmd-tabing to a more feature rich Note taking program.

I use a variation of the Bullet Journal, but I use MSFT One Note to manage it. I think the big thing, no matter what you do, is to establish a routine of reviewing it for a few minutes daily. No matter where you're capturing ideas, tod

We're in the same boat as you and our SAAS model involve custom deployment versions for each client. We're looking at trying to keep the databases unique per client, but handling the core requests in a multi-tenant environment, b

I don't share the same sentiment. I routinely see active code being supported that 10 to 20 years old. Granted, it's no joy to work on, but it does get maintained. I'm curious what kind of environment you work in where where

Do you have any experience with Elixir? I'm hearing that Ruby devs like it for similar syntax that runs on the Erlang runtime....(But I don't really know much about it, but I am curious.)

You'd be stuck with all that money in a crypto currency, unable to transition it to fiat, of which that crypto will likely be worth zero in a couple years. ;)

I agree with you. But I do think casual drinking affects socializing a lot more than people think. I think most people here now just want to head home at 5 on a Friday. I wonder what would happen if we did something at 2 or 3 instead of end

Our company was acquired by old-school finance firm. They banned alcohol and happy hour beer-Friday's we used to have. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but all the millenials work elsewhere now (especially given the competitive

To help others with this strategy of blackbox/comparison testing, it's also often called "characterization" testing [1]. (In case you want to read more about this strategy.) [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/w

Nice work on Knockout refactor. We still are actively using KO in our core product, and it's nice to see some legs left in the framework.

This is a good high-level overview of the process. I highly recommend that engineers working in the weeds, read "Working Effectively with Legacy Code" [1], as it has a ton of patterns in it that you can implement, and more detaile

When you're a large company, with literally 100s of 500K+ LOC apps around, you don't get to just rewrite them. That's the reality of a lot of enterprise shops and completely changes the perspective when looking at a codebase

I don't believe this at all. I have friends who work for Google from acquired companies and they're no where near this.

Changes on the client still usually roundtrip to the server to get the data (via a Rest call these days, then parse the JSON response, then render and apply the diffs to the DOM). And I don't buy the argument that javascript-based clie

I agree, I feel React, much like Flex's MXML forces the developers to componetize the entire UI as part of the development process in a way that feels natural.

Server-side rendering with partial views? You're never going to get something as simple as Flash, with a write-once works everywhere. But your user's aren't going to be annoyed at the crappy UX that Flash (or Flex) applicatio

The answer is yes, I ran one for two years buy purchasing well-known compatible hardware. But you're still at the mercy of OS X upgrades, which require fiddling and downloading of newer NVidia drivers, etc... So, still not worth it, IM

I've been using DuckDuckGo [1] as my default search engine for a couple years. By adding a !g to your duckduckgo, you can then search Google easily if you're not finding desired results. [1] https://duckduckgo.com Edit
