I did ERP (Fact ERP from New Zealand company Fact, later acquired by Geac and then Infor) implementation at VTech at the end of the 80's at their HQ in Taipo district in Hongkong. Later bought a Laser 128 from them to play with. Had al

Interesting . NZ has had a geothermal plant for decades that is situated in a volcanic area (and right next to tourist hotspots of Rotorua and Taupo). They force cold water down and use the steam to drive turbines. No idea on the efficienc

I really like this. Have messed with the other forms of this approach over the years but this looks like the simplest. My need is to create a tool that makes easier for people to quickly throw together presentations from some boilerplate an

I have used mkdocs! Very cool. I actually used it to produce a newsletter. SO much easier to write the whole newsletter in md and push it to "site" which we then published via email. Thanks for writing it. Slick, simple, and deliv

First and foremost consider the lifestyle. If that is for you then you can be sure if you are capable then you will find work. NZ has the world's highest proportion of self-employed and entrepreneurs and still an attitude of 'can

Folks - a kiwi here. There are loads of tech companies in NZ and in the past developers are attracted by the lifestyle. Orion in the health space, Xero SaaS accounting system, Navman, hell even the first GSM controlled Coke vending machine

Just love the website content and slider. So wish that many more sites were like this. We could all save time by reading the one sentence version and move on.

I could see hits being a great tool for startups and others where multiple authorizations needed for sharing information on a device. And for those in USofA this could be very helpful for protecting data when asked for passwords by CBP beca

I didnt even know this is what my problem was until reading this article! My daughter is still angry about me going apeshit a few times when she was a child and rattling her spoon against her teeth when eating. And people eating loudly di

After owning and using a loadvof machines over the years i find 10-11" is great for travelling and office work but need at least 13" to be able to code. Note sure why but this has held true across all the OS so its not a software

That problem doesnt exist for me using Win8.1 on laptop and different screens at home and work. Make sure to always use the Win+P "Extend" option, and when first used, select to set the external as primary. Then should work ok. i

Agree 100%. It is what worked for me. Get up early every day, brew and enjoy fresh coffee and HackerNews + Dilbert as the first things I read. And do the dishes immediately after every meal. Each thing is small but needs focus to be done pr

Used AWK a whole lot in early 90s for massaging source code. Mostly to analyse and refactor 1m+ LOC of COBOL. And Awk was brilliant for that. Have used it ever since when needed to text process. Around 2000 was using it a lot to get conver

They need to get Teams right before they are attacking anything except the coffee maker. I hope they do get it right cos we use s4b at work. I really want them to make that a capable product so that i dont have to use a basket of products

Very happy for the folks at Trello. Great outcome for a great tool. Seems lots of JIRA-haters in the comments but lets get back and look at this event. The folks at Fog Creek brought us FogBugz, Stackoverflow, Trello. We should celebrate t

This could create a whole digital market for food stains. Mac&Cheese, soy sauce, pesto-drip,...... for those whose keyboard/desk is also their 'feeding station' could be huge. Seriously though - its clever and great to h

All cred to Norway for doing their part to make a passport something usable and something a citizen can show with pride. However not a patch on current New Zealand passport design. Everywhere i take mine out for use i get comments about ho

You have a MBA and you are a PM shows you have the skills to reserch, and put in some deep thinking. On that basis it would be folly to think you havent given seriously analytical thought to this i.e. you know what you are doing. But is thi

Useful resource to review. There is always time to think about how we think. I know from experience that always underestimate by 30% the time it takes to do things - being it gardening or coding. I measure it to find out. Cognitive bias
