   The reason to use services like AWS is that you can scale in the opposite direction too - provisioning cheap infra for $10s - $100s a month. That's something your hypothetical(?) startup should consider doing, depending of course on wh

   Gantt charts are one of the few things from those boring mandatory project management classes that actually show up in real life. It's a simple way to visualise project dependencies and timelines, the two most important things which an

    I've dipped my toes into Mac app development and had the same experience as you did. Forget good resources, a lot of AppKit APIs have no documentation at all. This makes me understand why JavaScript is winning here - for all its faults

    I wish I were smart enough to coin a catchy phrase that means "the moment some software dropped in quality, when they decided to add user accounts", because I see this quite a lot. I'm looking at you, Postman!

    I suspect a lot of folks here assume the only type of "content" worth having is text, given the nature of programming, and of this website. Therefore anything that makes text hard to produce cannot possibly be good for "conte

    I am pretty convinced that if Wordle added features that required talking to a server, it would make the overall experience worse, not better. It's easy to take for granted that you never see a loading spinner when playing the game, an

    When a piece of code runs slow, the way to address that is to use a profiler to figure out where the slowness is coming from. Perhaps it's worth trying to track what's the bottleneck in your workflow, compared with someone who is
