> This matters a lot because community is great power, whoever holds it, holds key to future mindshare.
Bitbucket and atlassian are still surviving despite not having any community presence on them. As long as bitbucket offers value(self hosting, CI, etc) and enterprises use them I think it'll be fine.
Sorry for being snarky but genuinely curios : Why does it matter that anything is open source in that case if the criterion is that it should work and be useful? In this case, this is equivalent to a chrome extension being closed source. Sure its better than nothing but I would actively prefer an open source one over closed source.
For comparison, New York stay at home order went live on March 22 when they had 7000 cases while for New Zealand it was 500 cases on march 28 when the order went into effect.
Since I am tired of sanitizing packages and no matter how thorough I am, it feels like its never good enough, now I just let packages sit outside the house for a day and then bring them in, wash my hands like a lunatic and let the package sit again for a day before I open it and clean up the contents inside it(easier than cleaning the packaging).And even then use the thing after a few days.
I use WhatsApp and generally trust Facebook when they talk about e2e (of course there will be bugs but Facebook has lots of eyes on them, are a huge public company with staffed security team, encryption has been tested in Brazil where they didn't have anything to hand over to the govt, have lots to lose by lying here and Metadata collection and WhatsApp business sound like a potential business). In my opinion the biggest issue is the backups. Everybody I know backs up the chats to icloud or Google drive (even if you don't your friends might) because it offers great convenience. These backups are not encrypted( well, encrypted with key with whatsapp) and hence is a weak link. In an e2e encryption system all we need is one weak link and this is imo the one. Hopefully whatsapp or Apple or Google solves it elegantly without too much hit on user convenience.
Keep is now a core gsuite app, so while it could also get canned or have a total makeover, it will probably stay, atleast for enterprises, like Google+ continues to.
Your statement may be right. I am inclined to believe that he means he needed to take her to therapy and then back. This means he might start the day a bit later or he might be unavailable for some time. People generally WFH in those situations as it saves the time of commute and they can get something else done. Overall it might be an hour or 2 that he might not be available or it might be just the same as before as he saves commute time both ways and can work later in the day as he is already home.
No need to jump to nefarious meaning. Also further he mentions how others in the team were working from home anyways once a week and he was ordered to come and sit at 7am.
I understand the need and curiousity to dissect each and every line but please don't let this 'one potentially, open to clarification' statement take everything else from the author.
I apologize if you didn't mean to, but since this is the top child of current top comment, I felt the need to. Let's not lose the forest for the trees.
My approach to this is to make peace with the fact that I don't need to nor can read every interesting thing out there. So I choose 2-3 articles which seem promising (mostly based on a hunch and how people here react to them), send them to kindle using this website[1] during work and then reading on my way home. Personally, I have noticed, reading a few articles around topics are also better for retention compared to reading just the discussion around the same topics and 10 more. Still haven't figured out how/when to read books, but we'll get there some day :)
Privacy is a double edged sword and apple has taken the other side of it compared to most other companies. Doing good ai while being privacy conscious is not easy, huge props to them and hope they succeed.
Every quarter they hire ~4000 employees, majority of them engineers and product managers. In q3 they expect even more due to new grads joining. Does anyone know how this looks compared to other big companies like amazon,microsoft,facebook, etc?
Huge fan of the framework and been using it for an year now. My biggest complaint though is the speed at which things move. See for example this PR[1] : it has been reviewed and approved since early January of this year. That's 7 months without it being merged.
Winning and losing have a lot to do with confidence and ability to take risks. Winning reinforces confidence which allows one to take more risks if they have a growth mindset(also equally important).
PS: The add-on[1] I use to avoid redirects doesn't like these medium hosted blogs. These links redirect to medium[2] which redirects to original link and I am stuck in an infinite loop.

Nobody ever does. My attempt at solving this is to eliminate as much of the "surprise!" moments as I can by delaying things. It doesn't work always, but I have found saying no to things initially helps a lot. Somebody comes to bug you, someone just wants to talk NOW, ask them for some time. More often than not, we know what the other person would say. Think about it clearly and then talk with them.
As this doesn't always works,one more technique is "let silence speak". Instead of rambling about and saying things you would regret later, just stay silent and ask for more time to think and talk later.
Reading this and replies to it saying how this is slowly becoming(or already is) the reality, I now get why stranger things is a highly acclaimed show. Not to take away anything from the storyline, direction, acting but one large appeal of the show was that it brought back memories. Parents of today lived the life portrayed by the kids in the show(cycling, staying overnight at friends house, etc) and yearn for a comeback of those days, long gone by for the most part.

Ha! The number of spam emails I get, sometimes I wonder if there is actually a good product like this which might be useful but gets lost in the sea.
Edit : really nice and to the point product, found a bunch of issues with my website. Now all my broken links are fixed and the website has a favicon!
Both apple and google don't support 'pay for upgrade' model. Its either subscription or pay once. Of course, you can roll out your own payment gateway(which apple has further issues with) or re upload the app under a new v2 name, but those are not very satisfactory solutions.
