It's crazy how different opinions are on JIRA. I think it's the worst tool I'm forced to use - and have been - at all my dev jobs. It's slow, sluggish, the UX is horrible and it gets in my way. A lot of dev teams that are outside of product/project management claws simply opt for using whatever simple kanban board there might be(Trello, for example).
Credit? They only acted because they had to. Doctors were arrested weeks before for "spreading rumors". Their inability to act has led to this thing spreading beyond their borders.
I have the same setup as you and can confirm this. If I go to facebook.com from my browser, it will always show 1 unread message even though there isn't one. It's pretty annoying.
Indeed. I worked with a fully blind colleague(who ironically did accessibility testing..) - it made me so sad he couldn't participate in all the stuff on Slack. I mean yeah he'd get an email if it was important, but surely he must've felt excluded frequently.
Maybe it isn't, but other languages/frameworks have improved the past ten years as well. I don't see the selling point in building something in PHP in 2019 when you have similar if not better/more mature languages/frameworks at your disposal.
Won't your prototyping be faster in Go/Python/Node/Ruby anyway, with a more stable surface to build upon it? I really fail to see where PHP has its place in 2019. For your "build a minimally viable product fast", the above win.
For enterprise stuff, the good old Java/C# win.
