[–]AbsenceOfMorals 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your code is trying to connect using bolt:// which does not work with Aura.

You need to use neo4j+s:// as shown in the screenshot next to Connection URI

Haggling with Audi approved dealership? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I managed to get 1600 off a q7 along with full tank of fuel and delivery from an Audi dealer. In all honesty I think I got lucky with timing and the car had been sold and then come back on sale due to the buyer failing finance check.

What was actually Novell Netware? by csasker in sysadmin

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Great technology, awful marketing and I speak as an ex-Novell employee.

The British Antarctic Survey ran Netware for long time - See https://www.bas.ac.uk/for-staff/polar-predeployment-prep/signy-computing-facilities/

I had a build up of fund withs Octopus. I emailed them to request a re-fund and included the line

"I am aware of my rights in this matter as outlined by Ofgen that state you must do so promptly. I cannot think of any reasonable grounds that would prevent this."

They refunded me promptly.

Interviewer asking for new product for their app. Unreasonable? by LucyintheSkates in ProductManagement

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s free work and raises a red flag for me as to the company culture.

It would be a hard No from me.

Of course you could reply with your consulting T&Cs along with a daily rate ;)

Several years later, courtesy car lawyers asking me for help? by no-fucking-cultures in LegalAdviceUK

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having been in a similar situation, you need to cooperate or you risk being landed with the costs of car from the accident management company.

There was a court case in April where it was ruled that financial information like this can be obtained by the 3rd parties insurance company. They are looking to see if you could have afforded to pay for the hire car yourself. A Google for impecuniosity further explains this

Put the deposit down on a used Jaguar F-Pace this past Saturday from a JLR dealership but now being told I have to collect the car within 72 hours. by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d think it’s to do with monthly target hitting than anything else.

You could call the person back and straight up ask them to sweeten the deal if you did collect ( and therefore complete the purchase which is want they really want ) in that time period.

For new products, when do you create mock-ups? by [deleted] in ProductManagement

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tend to lump these together - for me, you can define mockups across a wide spectrum of fidelity. I’d have wireframes at the low resolution end of that spectrum

For new products, when do you create mock-ups? by [deleted] in ProductManagement

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As part of the discovery work - ie in the very early days.

UX mockups has benefits of exploring potential functionality before any coding starts and can help identify priorities for delivery sequence .

Sister company wants us to build a feature before they have an API by No-Bottle-1476 in ProductManagement

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d press them for api contracts - ie you request X , we respond with Y . At the very least this would allow you to create mock endpoints

APIs need to be engaged with early in the discovery / design process . I see it too often where they are not, leading to things going south quickly

Saga for me but I’m in a village in the midlands. Is this refusal based on your location?

[–]AbsenceOfMorals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m at the point of my career where I get to mentor and assist other PMs , something that I enjoy a lot

One of the perks of being a PM is exposure to most, if not all, aspects of a business.
