Yup. Happens a lot with my Denon. It also likes to disconnect a lot, while my TV (right above it) is streaming YouTube at the same time with no problem.

That’s gorgeous. I’m getting into Fpv drones and it requires lots of soldering and associated tools as well as tons of little parts. Right now it’s all over the place. I like how self contained that is. I’m gonna have to think about similar

I feel like there’s gotta be a minimum face to face communication threshold for remote teams..a status meeting is a good reason for that. In the olden days when everything was in person meeting, I’d totally agree.

I had a roomba 10 years ago, before kids. With all the detritus that comes with kids, auto-vac was not a good option. Now that kids are older and we maintain some semblance of control over clutter I want to get one again. Any personal advic

This is timely. I’m creating a webapp and I’m simply unable to create a good looking Color combination. Going to give this a try. I like the fact that each Color has an associated meaning.

- for file management, I love midnight commander. The two pane interface is classic and highly flexible. - for git, i tried tig and lazygit, but I couldn't integrate them into my workflow for some reason. But they are both quite nice.

Neat. I started using magit within the last month and the immediate benefit was that I started committing more often. TUIs are so much quicker than GUIs, but of course more difficult to use. It's worth optimizing your tool chain, imo,

I would love to become a consultant. Any suggestions on how to do it? I feel like consulting a skill set different from being a developer. I think some folks fall into it, but I certainly haven't been able to.

Great question. The only rigorous work on estimation I'm familiar with is Steve McConnell's "Software Estimation". It's been a while since I read it, but here's a paragraph from "estimating by analogy"

It’s a cute shorthand. Like T-shirt sizing: small, medium, large. The point is that sizing is relative. That 2 point story kinda looks like it might be twice the work of that 1 point story. If your story is an 8 (or xxl) it’s likely to be u

Emacs documentation is a first class citizen. You can hit C-h-f to look up any function, or, C-h-k to see what a key is bound to (and then follow links to functions). I recently submitted a package to MELPA (an emacs package repo) and part

I did not know that. I thought the book was mostly factual, as far as these things go. The program he references though, are real programs. The budgets and overspending were also correct (where I checked). Do you have a link to any rebuttal
