yetanother-1··on Postgres Container Apps (beta)
I love Postgresql, but I don't want it to end up like oracle, where it is the center of thr focus.

That being said, I like the idea of Postgres as a platform for more than data tables storage and database engine. It proved quite powerful and useful.

yetanother-1··on Android in Docker without QEMU/emulator
Frankly I just install Island, and then run Whatsapp (and all not-always-needed apps) inside it. Plus bonus: you can freeze the apps you don't need and keep the island running.

Nice, but still not very intuitive nor common for the grand public.
yetanother-1··on When MVPs Hurt
It still makes sense to start with the core business values then go up with nice to have features.

Compexity comes sometimes from not so important features that could take much longer to migrate. But of course some of these features are why some products are picked over others in the first place, however this requires a case study and more analysis.

yetanother-1··on Measuring Software Complexity: What Metrics to Use?
I agree. Certains functions are way more complicated and hard to show value for than others, which is really hard to comprehend for some managers.

Functionalities like undo/redo take a lot of planning, coordination and integration efforts than others like a simple export function, but good luck selling that to any marketing or product owner for xx manndays.

I still think that this subject is way too specific to be generalized like this, but general thumb of rules still apply like good estimation and technical planning.

I like your argument, but there are some truth to what he says, not that I agree with him.

yetanother-1··on Sinch to acquire Mailgun
I woild say different expectations from each acquisition, less profit and more overhead.
yetanother-1··on Jellyfin: Free Software Media System
This is very nice, but still misses photos organiser.

Combined with energized lists, this is the best options if you don't want to mess your phone with roots.

yetanother-1··on WinCompose – A Compose Key for Windows
Same issue.

I struggeled with french on German keyboard, so I searched how to type everything, and all wad easy except the ç.

The only solution was to type ALT+135 from the keypad. It worked until a recent windows update, now I get garbage from that shortcut.

I will give this a try, thanks!

yetanother-1··on Curated list of personal blogs
Inoreader is the closest to the Google Reader and the free account is really useful.
