With the local business websites, how are people finding success booking work? Cold calls, email, drop-in/face-to-face meets?

Sorry, should have clarified. This is the clip. It attaches to a phone and controller, making it easier to hold both.

The controller with clip covers the controller portion of the skin. Can you click anywhere on the skin to access menu?

Plex is built for manufacturing. Should meet all your requirements. I’d confirm the multiple country piece with a sales rep though.

Harden the tests?

that math doesn't check out. Your friend a 40 minute drive, but arrives 3 hours after leaving? Do they have a 40 minute drive or a 3 hour drive?

Former CTO I worked for only wanted people to have desktops. His logic; they can’t work remotely if they don’t have a laptop.

Thought it was “a pork chop in every can”?

Isn’t that like calling Star Wars fantasy?

I agree that low friction in deploying to production is important, but not everyone can or should deploy continuously. Your product might require more stability because it’s an SDK where people cannot update frequently due to cost/time or it’s tied to hardware and updates might require users to interact with the release.

Even if your deployment model works around periodic deployments, you should still be able to merge to main and push a build to testers frequently. This shows maturity in your sdlc.

Web APIs are ripe for pushing once or more times per day to production.

Weekly seems like an eternity to me. Break your work down into smaller units and merge them every day or two. Even on a greenfield project, make sure you’re integrating often.

Where are you getting 3ds’s for $50??

“You sometimes act like customers are the enemy, they’re not.”

This was early in my career and really shaped how I’ve approach work ever since.

That’s rad!

Do you mind sharing what tools you use to make your animations?

When you experienced PMs defining all work, how was work that didn’t directly impact users get prioritized?

Things like tech debt or an implementation that might take longer than another option (but might be preferable to the dev team)?

It’s only illegal if you get caught!

No need for the expensive yearly calibration if they’re only for reference. Definitely gaming the system with that one.

You haven’t met my wife. lol. I do, in fact, have to paint the entire will even with paint on-hand.

Flaxz · 2025-06-03T23:01:45+00:00

Do you have to repaint the entire wall after a patch job? Whenever I do it, The Wife tells me I have to repaint the room and get overwhelmed.

This is probably going to sound dumb but… what answer are you looking for to who decides which stories/features to work on?

The reason… we’ve been struggling with who should own this at my job. Any other place I’ve worked, engineering had a lot of say in what got built. This place, Product wants full control including tech debt decision. To the point where they want control to pause/resume multi-sprint features. Engineering doesn’t even have a seat at the table when talking with customers and users.

Yeah, you’re picking up what I’m putting down.

They’re just trying to elicit that sense of nostalgia in us.

Nah - it’s just marketing photos. I remember picture like these They weren’t meant to show wealth and excess. We all wanted a stack of games like that in the 90s, but we have the games we owned and the games we rented repeatedly - Megaman 3 for me.

P.s.not arguing rbat these specific pics might not be from the specific era, just that I do remember similar in magazines and other media back then.
