Would love to see some examples please

Staying clear of sunk cost fallacy too seriously to their own detriment?

Sign of rapid experimentation in a big company?

We read this numerous times before finally creating our own sharding system over bare MySQL

We have around 35tb MySQL deployment in master slave config. The most interesting nightmare happened to us when doing the master fail over using ghost and panic manual intervention created 2 active master scenario leading to chaos which we had to clean for days along with monetary loss : ) Lesson learnt don't do manual intervention when ghost is doing fail over

Why would you :|

Thanks for the suggestion. will definitely give it a try. I really liked guesstimation too. https://www.amazon.in/Guesstimation-Solving-World%60s-Proble...

really amazing and nostalgic

i have been wondering the same thing for quite some months,I live in india and have been using amazon for some time.Earlier amazon branded products were little, but now there are every type of amazon branded products. they have revenue data and order data or whats selling fast what is not. I think they are using that to leverage their inventory turnover.

i am jumping back to pen and paper or more of direct hand interfaces . I also recently bought graphic tablet for storing handwritten notes.From what i think computer can help you store ideas vertically,with excel you can have vertically as well but still the interface is the keyboard and not whole hands. vague thoughts!!

I've been trying to understand this drm for some uses for past 6 month. I got few bits and pieces, but this article really put them together in a marvelous fashion. kudos

download it here before its gone from there too https://web.archive.org/web/20201015213331if_/https://github...

cli for creating bitbucket pull requests has saved me so much time https://www.npmjs.com/package/cmd-bitbucket

It pulls source and destination branch merges them locally and then pushes the source branch and creates a pull request if not already there. Reviewers are configurable per repo.

Disclaimer - I have used this every day for past 3 years and i maintain it as well.

I personally maintain and use https://www.npmjs.com/package/jira-cmd . Though it has not saved 100 hours but it has saved me good 20 hours over an year. It saves me atleast 20-30 seconds on each jira

some of its functionalities are 1. Unlimited templates for default jira params like epic names, labels, priority etc. 2. alias for frequently used jql 3. aggregation like count,sum support over jql output 4. making multiple jira transitions with single command by saving those transition as comma separated values.

many more such features

that are some new insights, so popularity is the key ingredient.

just like RSS should be there for latest articles, sitemaps should also be there for collection of all articles on the blog. So that we are not at the mercy of crawlers to get list of all articles of a blog.

really great design

that could be made recursive ;)

true,

agreed, that its not a single entity. UX is far more important to users than UI in my opinion. Google's UX used to be good but now I've experienced its shortcomings in many of its updated products.

I use emacs org-mode for organizing various things. Its pretty neat.

@theemathas thanks, @pwdisswordfish - nice one :D

Any laymen explanation ? Not able to grasp the concept.
