Step 2, make a failed game, pivot, succeed wildly :) It's worked twice already!
Step 1: Be Stewart Butterfield.
fyi they don't need to power cycle your machine to remove it from the data center (if there is physical access); there's a battery backup that clips onto the power prongs while it's still 3/4 in the socket.
there's an app called Habit List (ios) that pretty much does that.
update: I just tested this; if you're on 1.8.7, you can manually apply the patch I linked in the parent comment and recompile. There is nothing preventing a backport.
It seems to be a fairly simple patch for 1.8 series, too: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-193/repository/revisions/43776 just a few lines truncating input in util.c. Break your ruby here:…
This article looks fairly accurate (for what I understand of the SF market) Things are a fair bit cheaper/easier in Portland. I do actually own a food truck in Portland (as well as a software company). We made a profit…
we just switched 1/3rd of our infrastructure off our existing host (engineyard, which uses AWS) onto raw AWS and saved about $2500/month. You can do it too!
It's not just a scheduling, there are a bunch of legacy systems you have to integrate with. And of course it's health data, so there are more requirements. Anyone want to burn three months on an unpaid spec? :)
Elasticsearch is great and magical, but there are a bunch of defaults that you MUST set for it to be useful. I'm surprised github wasn't using these, actually (like allocating the min and max memory to be the same…
It's only a security problem if you're using the Model#where form. If you're doing Model#all or #each or whatever, you're fine.
Basically, it doesn't - because it doesn't need to. Rails/ActiveRecord doesn't use those either. Problem solved :)
This is old news, but we successfully use https://github.com/freels/table_migrator in production not on heroku. It creates a copy of the table, performs the schema changes, copies the data over, then renames the tables…
2. Opentable actually does this - they give you up to 10x more "points" (redeemable for meals, later) for certain restaurants on quiet nights.
Obsessive metrics are fun. Knowing how long things took vs estimates is useful for determining the accuracy future estimates. Having an absolute sense of numbers for types of projects is useful for estimating future…
At entp we used a custom-built time tracker that works a bit like twitter; you tell it what you're working on (projects are referenced with @projectname and individual tickets with #1234) and it tracks the time between…
That's actually the Oracle single sign-on server you're seeing there, not the Mix app itself.
"Launches"? Heh. I'm actually the lead dev on this (entp). It's been around since at least 2007, when my git history starts. Nothing new about it, but it seems to be a good way for Oracle employees and customers to…
We use Postmark, (we've sent a few million emails through them) and they indeed do this for us.
I've done this (both designing and manufacturing from scratch, and making t-shirts). It looks like you mean "I want to design screen prints", rather than design clothes. This is actually pretty easy. Find a local…
My company is (well be, soon as we get off our asses and send a check) one of the sponsors of this. Why? We already do a bunch of open source; as well as the 'giving back' factor, I'm genuinely intrigued with what will…
I think it's more like "a majority of high achieving people have these sorts of issues". You don't make it to interesting places without some form of overactive mental processes; it's those of us who can deal with it…
I actually am in the US on an E2 visa, and I founded and (still) run entp.com. In my mind, the investment requirement of the E2 merely is a way of your providing proof of your ability to achieve success.
