<p>I like how you can play more than one bird at the same time.<p>I was digging deeper into the species selector and started playing others.  It really makes for a realistic bird watching/listening experience :)<p>Thanks for making this!<p>For anyone else curious, on a touch pad you need to do the two finger tap on a country to get the data to appear.  Then click into the result.</p>

<p>FWIW I opened a new tab and uploaded a different PDF, then proceeded to ask it about the previous PDF.<p>It swears it has never heard of it or anything about the previous PDF (rather, it suggests you go search the web).<p>So, at least it doesn't seem to leak your upload to other users.  But I wonder what it does with the info.</p>

Django/ROR"]]></title><description><![CDATA[
<p>I break down the feature/story into several tasks and label them as A) backend or B) frontend (occasionally there is only 1 or the other but usually there will be at least 1 task for backend and 1 for frontend).  
Link those tasks back to the master feature /story item.  It will be marked done only when all the associated tasks are finished.<p>Then do those tasks separately, usually the backend first, and then pass it/assign the frontend task.
The backend task is only considered finished when there are passing tests written with the frontend consumer (developer) in mind, proving they are provided with everything they will need.  
Document the API in a way/place a frontend developer can knows and understands.<p>If you write the requirements for the tasks very clearly, the whole process could go smoothly without a lot of back and forth between the backend and frontend developer.  
But sometimes there are things that weren't foreseen and so there could be a bit more to go back and do on the backend.<p>More often than not there are folks that are better at/hired for backend or frontend, so only assign the appropriate tasks to each of them.  
Sometimes there are full stack developers/solo developers who can do both.  In that case I still follow this approach.</p>
