I don't know where you guys work but I have worked in very big co with meeting attended by entire organization > 50 and much more. Google Meeting, in chrome, worked just fine. I am not sure about other browsers. But I…
Why Zoom when you have already got GSuite? Google Meeting is great, it works in the browser and does not need any additional software.
We use BitWarden and it is free. $620M for a password manager is nuts.

What's 10x is not the house, but the land, the physical space the house seats on. The land is a finite resource, thus it can only appreciate in value.
Isn't already super trivial to get a nodejs app and running in not time on AWS or GCP? Why would I pay for this?

Absolutely, it all depends. But I keep seeing close friends who are now home poor. They own their place, but that's it. They are done. They don't have any significant money for rainy days, they can't afford anything…
It is a seller market, and it is probably gonna stay that way for some time. The only properties I am considering buy are those located in vacation places. You can still find good deals, and you can easily repay by…

These platforms should not offer 2fa with SMS. And force their customers to use 2FA via MFA instead.
I have come to the conclusion that is not about the methodology but the people. I worked in super productive teams that were not following any "agile" methodology, or really any particular methodology. The goal was to…

I called it ticket, you can call it card. I did not say it to be heavy. But should also contain enough info to get started or at least point to the right person.
TL;DR: - Meeting -> Outcome -> Create tickets -> Assign - Developers: write scripts; value automation over documentation In my experience, people don't read documents. When they need something they will ask. A meeting…
basically they can't fire people at will, but you have to give three months notice. Sounds like enough time to find another job.
If I am not mistaken, when an employer let people go they should also pay what 3 months of full paycheck? It is easier to let people go, but also expensive.
