Isn't this one of those things where if you're conscientious enough to want to spend time sorting this out and building up an analysis you're probably already the kind of person that doesn't have completely wild and untr

Fragmentation, wheel reinvention, people using dependencies that are long-term unmaintained and or deprecated are a few that immediately spring to mind

Almost everyone I know just uses it as a middle-class Craigslist + the odd baby pic nowadays.

This is the thing. You need to invest not only in completely understanding how every aspect of material design works, you also have to understand that visual languages enforce strong opinion and aren't an expression of creative freedom

It's a tough one, I'm not convinced anyone should be consciously coached into the notion that sharing private identity information over chat is acceptable. Feels like a long tail to social engineering scams.

It's far too simplistic to say, yes or no. If you are inclined towards self-motivated improvement and if you have a good internal monologue where you are able to be real honest with yourself and your own failings and limitations then r

I mean who cares, really. 90% of developers will spend time building reusable components that will be used exactly once, and and some people will open source some stuff that wedges in every suggestion and pull so it is 5 times the complexit

Rather than a speculating on what really boils down to semantics once ToS is involved maybe someone could actually try submitting an app and reporting back on whether it triggers the same failure?

This is exactly how I feel. Too many developers lose sight of what they actually valued for. Sure there are a subset who we need to be at a higher level to do the leg work on building tools etc, but 95% of developers really are far too invo

Why would they want to skew posters narratives? If the entire point of comment additions to outlet sites being to increase retention and engagement then ideal/belief 'conflict' is exactly what they would want.

header is metadata about the page and other related resources. This is dealing with the semantic issue of, for example, web components not knowing enough about the context they are in to be able to declare the correct heading tag (h1, h2, h

If you want low to no maintenance and maintain some of what you have I'd suggest pushing it into kinesis instead of postgres and then dumping to s3 as you're already doing.

I completely disagree that working above all else is the hallmark of great entrepreneurs.

Cost will rise, their marketing budgets will balloon as costs to acquire customers spirals out of control. Then as a two horse race they will realise that if they merge their marketing budgets can be slashed and then they become the monster

I know what you're saying, I'm often bad at meandering past the point I'm thinking of with a non-focused example. I guess in a nutshell I feel like these dashboard products, while well meaning and often very well crafted are

One of the things that really hit home at my last job and that I see missing from a lot of these dashboards is comparative context. So I walk in in the morning and we have a dashboard for vists and signups / payments and it shows lots

It doesn't appear to be under your github account so where should we file issues?

This touches on a problem our current product has. We're on the second iteration where the first iteration had almost no traction yet the design and features coming from the product side assume so much implicit knowledge of the busines

Unless you have diabetes markers, glycemic index is almost entirely irrelevant, it's like people that avoid gluten/lactose who aren't intolerant. Studies that made links to glycemic load to overall health have largely since b

Can I just take a moment, and I apologise up front for singling you out for this one, to say how much I hate comments like this, even more that they get upvoted. There's always some arbitrary software mentioned that is often barely rel

Obviously I completely agree, but the Surface line of hardware so far is good quality and feels coherent if a tad expensive for me. Expanding the product line from phabletey to large desktop could work for them.

He is correct in that distributed and user controlled are not highlight features of a successful product. This is something a lot of developers never seem to learn. It is the product that will succeed or fail despite what technology underpi

So if there's no differentiator why should I be interested in it? If you have a library that's entire purpose is visual and you show me nothing then that's a failure. I'm not going to clone a repo and spin up some exampl

People always do this. No you don't want to, don't try and be a User-Hero. And if for some insane reason you do want to, implementing and supporting it would cost more than they would ever take in revenue because no one else wants

I'm paid to turn a business requirement into software. I create products. Coding is an unfortunately complex step in that process.

No it doesn't, don't be ridiculous. 'Why is this getting voted up when I've never heard or the company' was my reaction to seeing it when skimming the top links this morning. It being a female founder helps answer t
