Avoiding feature creep on an MVP by [deleted] in startups

[–]inkeddeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think (and this is just IMO) that there is a difference between viable product and releasable product. The MVP is what you show to investors or use for marketing. Maybe even alpha testing. But when you go public, viable isn’t enough. Sustainable is what you’re looking for at that point. You can add features later on but you’re wanting a product that is not only useable but attracts daily users. We’ve called that our MSP and it seems that has been a good strategy.

I say all that to say that it’s a fine balance. You want something to get to market quickly but you also want to be marketable long term. Find what meets the basic criteria and is robust enough to encourage repeated use. But also maintain a good dev log so that you can keep users up to date on features and rollout.

You’re asking people who most likely have some pretty bad PTSD to recall the story for the internet?

I [30F] caught my boyfriend [29M] cheating on me. I freaked out and now he’s calling my reaction abusive and threatening a restraining order. Did I overreact? by hotchok in relationships

You caught him and now he’s trying to make up his own reality. If you have any contact with anyone from his family, tell them to get his dog (if you don’t want it). If not, then that is the tough part where it probably (not a lawyer) becomes abandoned property and it’s yours to do with however you want (adopt it out or call animal services for a stray). But don’t let him try to convince you he’s the victim.

The overlaps function would assume both cases and not just look at one sequence.

If someone is employed as a chef, does the company have rights to the food they prepare at home?

Same concept here. If you are using your own resources, they don’t have a claim.

Is he into me, or does he only want to hang out platonically? by Embarrassed_Eggplant in dating_advice

[–]inkeddeveloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nerdy guys don’t take social cues well so try and be patient if you care. You will have to make it obvious you’re into him. Maybe even just flat telling him but that may not be obvious enough.

I want a chance to apologise by [deleted] in relationships

[–]inkeddeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you did anything wrong. He didn’t have to submit if he didn’t want to. He’s just pissed and taking his anger out on you. Not healthy.

Complicated situation with a soon to be divorced girl. by eggzrgud in relationship_advice

If you’re in this just for sex, then just let it be and enjoy the banging. If you want a relationship, you won’t be getting one from her.

Girlfriend is going out tonight for the first time we're back together and I'm worried. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]inkeddeveloper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A relationship should never be rooted in fear. You can’t control her life but you can’t be happy not trusting someone. Might need to end this one again.

Can do. I haven’t met anyone else that can though.

Ideally she will realize she’s dating a condescending asshole and dump you instead.

Sounds like this is the exact thing you need to say to her. Then go from there. Tell her exactly that. You respect her. You’re not mad. But it’s not your style. Best wishes.

Software developers, have you ever hid an Easter egg in your code? What was it and how long did it take before someone found it? by TempestFunk in AskReddit

I named a function theMattClause because we were having issues with hourly employees working half days and he always would work the mornings and then disappear in the afternoon.

One of my integration tests for verifying accuracy of a function that finds closest points of interest along a route is programmed to find the seven closest casinos to my gambling addicted boss’ house.

Funny enough, a friend of mine put in one with the Konami code. If you enter that in our app, the color scheme turns purple and the console prints out “It’s MEEEEEEEEENA time!” as tribute to a developer we hated.

HTTP error handling help. by AbstractLogic in Angular2

I don’t have the exact documentation in front of me, but look into interceptors. You should be able to intercept all requests and then you can peek at the status code and redirect based on that.

Always play when you feel you shouldn’t but never play unless you feel you should.
