Cool, thanks

It states the OpenStreetMap data is from May. Is it fully offline and needs to wait for the next app update?

Postgres handles NoSQL better than many dedicated NoSQL database management systems. I kept telling another team to at least evaluate it for that purpose - but they knew better and now they are stuck with managing the MongoDB stack because they are the only ones that use it. Postgres is able to do everything they use out of the box. It just doesn’t sound as fancy and hip.

Also, Kanban was invented in the 40s as a process for automotive production lines. That’s why it aligns so well with maintenance and operations projects in IT. It’s ridiculous how more and more people claim it comes from software development and would not fit hardware projects, when that’s the core use case of the methodology.

1Password can’t fail that hard easily. They’ve done great write-ups to compare their architecture to that of LastPass. Long story short: it’s the secret key that protects you: https://blog.1password.com/what-the-secret-key-does/

Trouble with those tests is, that they become unreliable or even meaningless, when you have done then once before, let alone daily.

Coffee seems to be a self enforcing meme at this point. It’s not unhealthy enough to have suffered the same fate as cigarettes. Which had pretty much the same jokes not too long ago.

It turns out there’s still plenty I don’t know, and I spend much more of my time confused and frustrated than I did before. The cool part is that I’m now confused and frustrated by really interesting problems.

This is spot on. Your whole response ist just a trove of insight, I wouldn’t have been able to articulate so eloquently.

Paperless -> Paperless-ng -> Paperless-ngx

Is there a difference between regulations regarding eggs between the US and Canada? Eggs in the US are dirt cheap because almost nothing surrounding poultry is regulated. I’m happy to pay the premium in Germany for minimum living conditions, antibiotics restrictions, no culled male chicks, etc. but I also realize that not everyone here is as fortunate.

Exactly this. This procedure is so common that you need to take care in situations where you don’t want the headers, as some tools set them per default.

Two things can be true at the same time.

[…] and velocity is often used to compare developers against each other.

Wow, that’s messed up. Luckily I’ve never had such a team/such leadership.

It’s not flawed. Nobody should get rewarded or encouraged by story points. It’s solely a planning metric and not a metric of productivity.

I was hoping the silly “you rascal” made the sarcasm obvious.

While this is true, the airline could have sold the direct flight that you actually took for more money. You had to pay less because the flight was seemingly inconvenient for you. So in the end you didn’t pay for your illegally obtained convenience. You rascal!

Everyone keeps saying that but I just can’t see it. The only time my mails were rejected was because I didn’t know what I was doing at the beginning of my journey. Now, whenever I changed my stack or did some major updates the past 20 years or so, I just go to 2-3 sites that analyze my mail server from the outside and tell me if there is anything wrong. The free tier is always more than enough. Just make sure there is at least one service in the list where you send an email to a generated mailbox and have it analyzed. Just looking at the mail server is not enough to find all potential configuration issues.

I aim at a100% score. It’s time consuming the first time around but later it’s just a breeze.

“Pete Complete” is just amazing in everything he does. Very well planned and narrated let’s plays with the goal of achieving 100% competition of a game in one playthrough.

I particularly enjoyed the Mass Effect series. Mass Effect 3 is almost complete now.

He also played Mutant Year Zero, XCOM, different RimWorld expansions and more.

This is not correct. Modern game engines support both concepts.
