I have a very strong opinion that the "evaluation systems" should be built for EMPLOYEES to use, not middle managers. A system that provides insights in to how you spend your time would be extremely useful to me. For example, if I wanted to sum up the total hours that I spend on a project, I have kept pretty decent track in Google calendar of when I am working. I have to go to a third part and upload my calendar dump to them, they convert the ICS to an Excel spreadsheet where I can finally do some addition if the duration field is properly formatted. Modern monitoring tools are the opposite of this approach and they are all built for some ephemeral opinion of what data matters to employers who can't decide what to do even if they had all the employee data in the world.

I don't see how this is at all true. Android store is unregulated and allows anyone to submit a crApp. This language looks stupid and it's no different than a dozen other languages in principle. Why not port Swift to Android so we can truly write once and run on two places?

My username wasn't found. Can you document and share the remedy to this? Might be a good source for scaling issues when posting to HN.
