Kenji has an excellent youtube channel that I think should be the starting point for people who want to learn to cook. There's nothing like video to see what it's supposed to look like during the process. Also funny dad jokes. h

It's past time to give up on Mozilla. I told our dev teams to not even bother testing because, on our b2b site, Firefox usage was under 0.01%. That is not a typo. I can't spend dev time on that. They're doing the same, and

When Mozilla is being gifted enormous amounts of free labor, they should be more careful with the donor.

They appear to be 2 people. I kinda of think folks should cut two people, one of whom just publicly apologized, a little slack re: how buttoned up they are about licensing. Particularly when they appear to have started sharing source code

I suspect the criteria is something like every engineer is going to end up w/ a subscription to some tool like this because the return on investment is so high. Saving 1 hour of work a month easily justifies spending $50. There'

This was not used to commingle authority vs the stories they reported themselves, and is in no way comparable to what cnn is doing, ie leveraging their site rank to juice traffic to trash content for ad dollars.

If Matt had wanted to, for example, tell WPEngine they're own their own for hosting these services with a cutoff date at least 4 weeks in the future, then fair play. Or to demand to bill them some reasonable cost share of the price to

I think it's purely a simplicity thing. Right now, most rails setups with decent traffic will have frontend boxes, a sql db, a KV store (redis or memcached), and a cache store pointed at the kv store, with, annoyingly, very different u

Seems unlikely though? Matt wrote a post on the web, ie he had unlimited length available to him. If the dispute is over employee contributions, then he should have made that the focus of his complaint.

They offered many features that wordpress.com copied (staging sites with one-button cloning; easy backup and restores; automated updates of php and wp code; tweaks to prevent security issues; automatic cdn) and others like serious engineers

No one even had to code them necessarily. Imagine building a purchase prediction engine. You could easily accidentally slide credits in as a feature. In the same way that you have to be very careful in ML to not accidentally include eith

Not to mention I'm skeptical the majority of WPEngine sites are blogs, particularly with prices starting at $240 a year. Rather they're company marketing sites. That's certainly what I used WPEngine for, and the service was

Also, the 25% (over 4 years) they're bandying about as the offer includes (per [1]) a loss of a bonus with a 4% target, and that's an annual bonus. I don't understand how this person calculated, but one of the employees clai

In real ones, maybe. In the cheapest chinese knockoffs... I wouldn't bet my health on that, and anyone who does is foolish.

btw, they seal the vacuum in those things with lead. If shoddy workmanship is in evidence, you may want to discontinue using it.
