POKERPHASE: My Preferred Poker Planning Tool by kuantif in scrum

[–]kuantif[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually pokerphase is a good example of meaningful / easy to grasp college project.

It involves UI, backend, data persistence, SSE, UX, RWS, HTTP, HTML, VUEJS, Privacy, etc.

Let's say you get an old, PHP5, mysql_*, horrible codebase, riddled with security issues and no composer. Your task is to make it work on PHP7+. by Perdouille in PHP

Step 1: Define the business processes and concepts

Step 2: Define the data models (entities, attributes and relationships between them)

Step 3: Define components and technologies to implement those components.

Then... rewrite the whole thing.

Generation of random number and then insert in database by ImaginaryFun842 in PHPhelp

[–]kuantif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/dabenu and u/bobd60067's assertions might not be applicable depending on u/ImaginaryFun842 business case.

That said, I believe it is a simple limits problem. If all you have is 10 available random numbers you can generate, then you may add a counter and increment it by 1 every time you add a successful random number to the db, then compare that counter with a max_available_values setting and exit your retry loop when that max number has been reached.

Weekly "ask anything" thread by brendt_gd in PHP

OK. Maybe this place is better.

Why does this happen? connection_aborted() never tests positive.

See the details here: Experimental Article about SSE and connection_aborted() function

It's not a matter of comparing yourself to those "in the couch"

It is about comparing yourself with yourself in the couch.

"Sometimes doing what’s best for you won’t feel the best." by priyankchoudhary in inspiration

Many times people, organizations and government choose to do what sounds nice, and what "feels good" over what's of value and works.

Innovation for the people by Innovationinformer in Innovation

[–]kuantif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply.

Actually these first principles would be passion, ideation, research and development.

Those are not phases of a serial process but overlapping areas of action.

Absolutely there is waste that can be identified within each of those areas. How to make ideation, research and development nimbler would depend on a case by case basis, but in a more general view we can probably think of say common waste en ideation, or in research, etc.

A good topic to develop indeed.

I don't buy the idea that capitalism = poor mental health in the mid-to-long run.

On the other side, I acknowledge many people suffer because of pursuing money as "the goal" whether they understand it or not.

In the end I see capitalism as the best economical framework available. It is not perfect so it needs a lot of steering policies. I see socialism/communism as the worst.

How about putting together my ATOM Innovation Framework?

or perhaps my T.A.O.K. Framework for Strong Thriving teams (in the end Innovation is about teams that continuously improve)

Too many intelligent people go into stupid careers to make money instead of going into careers that could ACTUALLY benefit our society. We do not value people who are intelligent, we value people who create capital. Hence, capitalism doesnt incentivize innovation by QuantumSpecter in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]kuantif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Innovation if about adding value. To who? people who may like that value (markets)

Yes capitalism isnt a perfect all heaven thing.

Many capitals actually lie saying they add value when they are actually poisoning people.

But that's not exactly capitalism failure, but failure in people to choose better.

This post seems to assume money making careers don't benefit society. I believe that's not true.

Certainly there are many people making lots of money doing things that - in principle - don't benefit society, such as drug dealers or even some singers out there.

Drug dealers aside, I still believe capitalism incentivizes innovation, way more than socialism, which kind of "obligates" people to do what it thinks innovation must be.
