the benefit is great for managers who go between different meetings, and especially if those meetings are at different locations.

much less time wasted in between meetings.

they definitely also get more done

New comment by djKianoosh in "Telemetry required? Ask users first"

the example I like to always use is when EA kept abandoning Madden (especially online franchise mode and gameplay) for like 10+ years straight (while making money hand over fist on MUT).

One time there was this new mode, for like 1-2 years, of 3v3 online. it was probably the most fun mode madden has ever had. it just needed a few tweaks. sensible stuff. But it would've been amazing!

but no. because it was difficult to get to in the menu system, fewer people used it and few people knew about it. so of course telemetry is going to say few people used it. but it had a TON of potential! a product owner made the wrong decision to cut that feature, and guaranteed they used misleading telemetry to justify it.

Needs way more variety, but I like it.

hurricane 2017 Gamma or 2008 Epsilon are memorable enough and gender neutral in any language.

the docs/paper for roaring bitmap says it's to be used for large datasets, but I must have missed where "large" is defined. In practice, how large does a set have to be to take advantage of roaring bitmaps?

in an organization that large, the 10 managers in your scenario would have to be some of the most selfless and honest humans, all able to communicate freely and openly without envy or ulterior motives.

DONT keep your head down though. That's part of the problem. Get out of your bubble/headspace/etc and talk to other devs. Compare approaches. Reach out to others to see how they're solving problems. Even problems you're not having. Especially those actually, for when the time inevitably comes when you have to deal with those issues.

As a new person you can't possibly know everything. If you dont have someone showing you the ropes then you have to take initiative and talk to others.

Especially in larger orgs, this is invaluable.

How does Routify compare with svelte-spa-router[1]? I really like svelte-spa-router for a simple SPA, though I think a lot of SPA routers don't always handle state well.

I'm kinda serious, why not use a crypto invoicing service? Seems like an actual use case to not have to rely on traditional banking.

How much of the world have you described?

Bitcoin is better in those unstable currency countries. The market will decide (has decided in some cases). So maybe inexorably bitcoin will be the reserve currency for a large portion of the planet. And at some point there will be a tipping point where it's going to be attractive enough to all other central banks.

It turns an everyday person worldwide into equals with central banks. That's pretty radical.

There's nothing in the article to support that title. "outrunning" it's not. article literally states it had been impacted by the supply chain situation

But doesn't a population's overall poor health contribute to the potential gridlock of the healthcare system? I mean, what is the percentage of non-accident emergencies in the system and has it increased with the overall decline in society's fitness? (assuming it has declined I suppose, I don't have any numbers as I am not in that field)

how does one learn this power and enlightenment? I easily have over a thousand tabs open across several browsers. Sometimes I go back to review them and am gladly surprised. Or sometimes I don't remember why I was looking at a thing, but it's still interesting.
