Being remote means you always have access to work, thus often resulting in you working much more than you would in an onsite only role.
That is not always the case. Clearly, you’ve never encountered “vim: command not found” but found vi to work without a problem.
I would say it’s a better opportunity to encourage users to use the corresponding language documentation to help ensure more accurate understanding.
“vi Oh boy. Here we go. Type vi index.html. This going to open vim which is an editor that's all in the command line.” Not to sound pedantic, but vi is not vim. While vim was designed as vi-improved, instructing users…
Why stop with monitoring the computer? It would be easier to just plant a device to monitor thoughts and every action. Surely, this would only be used for good, and after all, it’s all about safety. The monitoring for…
Communication is definitely huge with remote work. I think it’s the crux for a lot of newly remote workers. You have to adjust your communication style when working remotely, which some people just can’t handle. This…
This is where the follow up email to your attempt comes in handy. You try to speed things up by the phone call, but if you don’t get an answer, then you send an email and mention that you called as well. In the cases…
The lying about the crisis is the part that I was referencing was shady. Working as a consultant for a previous employer is completely acceptable and provides mutual benefit.
No offense, but that approach would make me not want to hire someone like that or work with someone like that. It may appear that you’re pulling one over on your previous employer, but if anything, that is probably a…
Agreed. The information presented currently serves a point. Removing items from the design for the sake of removing them is not efficient design. If anything, that is counterproductive. The presented design would be…
Adults or not, the issues here are reasonable expectations and support. As easy as it is to shift the blame to the employee, the real blame belongs with management. As a manager, I accept responsibility for my team and…
That noise is the exact reason why I think the design over the years hasn’t strayed away as captured in the screenshots. One of my favorite parts of using GitHub is that the design is clean and easy to navigate.…
I’m not too sure which one I would consider worse. That approach would be similar to buying every desirable domain containing a certain keyword when you operate within the same market. I personally believe the way to…
The quality of the content is definitely hit and miss, with more seeming to be the latter. The problem with mediums (no pun intended) is that at some point the source becomes popular, which does gain the benefit of…
That is a completely inept comparison. Domain squatting serves no purpose other than lining the owner’s pockets in what many would consider an unethical manner. Domain names are finite and cannot be replaced as a…
I believe ‘his’ should be ‘he’ in this context - “His has built widely used software ranging from award-winning individual apps to corporate workforce software.”
You’re dismissing the observation that users habitually click accept or continue when prompted with a dialog. Sure, you can blame this on the users being lazy but it becomes ingrained into users when everything they…
I work with junior developers that are fully remote without any issues. We communicate via IM, Slack, email, and Skype as needed. Not sure how to do something, let’s have a quick screen share and we’ll work through it.…
My approach has been to encourage email communication and then I just periodically check my email. This allows me the ability to get in the zone without constant distractions, while still providing the ability to assist…
If anything, I’d see this as a security benefit. The way I interpret it is by maintaining this link it would allow someone to track down a stolen device that the new owner tried to purge and make their own. I’d put the…
The acknowledgment that task switching is difficult when fully immersed in an existing focus that requires creative thinking has been an area of conflicting points of view in my current position as a developer,…
The prevalence of Alexa and other “assistance” devices shows that people willingly allow their privacy to be invaded for the perceived benefit gained from it. Advertising is one of those things where they want to…
I believe the goal was to identify the disconnect between what they envision and what the targeted users actually want. I’m in agreement that this is not something that I would want and am glad that the difficulties…
This disadvantage will be one of the largest hurdles to overcome, dependent of course on the amount of participants and their corresponding access. Once more mainstream adoption occurs then this could be reevaluated and…
While you can import pictures as mentioned, the overall experience seems to be much more. The primary focus seems to be to encourage collaboration and thus increase productivity in a geographically dispersed team. This…
