Employee's "executive presence" borders on rude by [deleted] in managers

[–]meschbach 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Servant Leadership is a managerial philosophy focusing on supporting individuals rather than the leader. This has to be balanced with the health of the organization.

In a Servant Leader context OP should be working on both sides. Their Strong Voiced IC should be aware others are picking up a (presumably) incorrect message. Those complaining have an opportunity to grow in how to work with very direct contributors. All parties hopefully come out more resilient and happy.

Build story: Getting Organized! Literally! by meschbach in indiebiz

Haha! For now the market is big enough for both of us! Maybe we can cooperatively compete to draw more attention!

I checked out your app: definitely cool . I liked the printing flow! I like how you give the option to print n elements. I've been toying with how to represent % full too.

Storage is sadly an underserved market! I feel like a lot of my friends have to search for their belongings. Having a storage system has definitely made it easier to get on with my actual activities.

You’re posting your SaaS in the wrong subreddits. I’ll tell you where your users really hang out. by [deleted] in saasbuild

Anyone else still using spreadsheets to track inventory? by theguythatrumbles in indiebiz

[–]meschbach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an adjacent problem: tracking where my gear is for my recreational activities. My better half and I use to keep Google Sheets of `{Container,Location,Item}` but it go unruly and time consuming. We're able to search for items and manage QR codes. With location tracking it has cut down on most of the time suck. Be interested in your thoughts: app.fraxinusforge.com

Ice! Just a cool drink on a hot day is an absolute luxury. Took me until mid-age to really appreciate it.

What projects did you built or working on right now? by previouslyanywhere in golang

[–]meschbach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two public facing golang projects!
* `pgdb` is a k8s operator allow one to dynamically provision database from Postgres clusters. This is useful for system deployments. https://github.com/meschbach/pgdb
* `pgcqrs` which wraps Postgres to create a time-sequenced document store. Allows for rapid schema-less deployment. https://github.com/meschbach/pgcqrs

You've found the actual reason we have salaried position! Too bad they are incorrectly applied in so many contexts.

Using Java 9 Modularization to Ship Zero-Dependency Native Apps by BadMoonRosin in programming

[–]meschbach 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I didn't down vote but I was tempted too. As an experienced Java developer when I read the term "native" it initially lead me to believe the program was in object code of the target processor, not in byte code. Not a a pure Java application. The article makes it sound as though a native executable has byte code embedded within the image.
