There is not a singular risk. In rugby some risks come from intentional foul play or accidents (high tackles, disguised hits on static players players at rucks and mauls, scrum collapses, etc.) Others come from the constant, somewhat contro

This is a really great question. It's not an insurmountable problem, but the compromises need to be understood. Further, there are lots of things that can be done on the receiver side to smooth out the experience. It is frustrating for

Automation. The same reason that Office apps can be scripted with VBScript. It seems like OBS is GPLv2 so may be somewhat amenable to having external automation, but I suspect that may be a controversial opinion. Going that path depends on

What does "modest scale" mean? Some people have to have all dependency updates reviewed and have some level of independent security team monitoring dependency changes. Not everyone has this, but the context is key as some domains

It's going to depend on your circumstances. You don't share any context about your app or any of your development. Rather than looking at this from the perspective of needing an artifact server, you just look at it as a case of su

One person's estimate is different from another person's estimate. The hole that most developers dig for themselves starts with a fixation on having perfect numbers and that they'll be punished if they don't have these.

You should separate the reasoning from the execution. I've done some certifications over the years, but wouldn't say the pattern fits with certificate collector. Why do these at all? For me, I was first in a role with a Microsoft

As a data point, per user support costs (financial and other) are often much larger for European customers compared to the US or Asia. In my experience, it tends to be lower bump for consumer. Once you get into B2B or enterprise, European c

You need to consider the blast radius and how long features may be in preview. Ideally, you would scope the preview to just a subset of users. When you go to a complete customer base you start to get into the situation where the customer ha
