The HOTP counter is something you can increment yourself if needed when storing it somewhere?

Proper implementations of TOTP do not just rely on expiring the codes. From chapter 5.2 of RFC 6238: "Note that a prover may send the same OTP inside a given time-step window multiple times to a verifier. The verifier MUST NOT accept the second attempt of the OTP after the successful validation has been issued for the first OTP, which ensures one-time only use of an OTP."
Is OneChimp a Competition for Paperless Pipeline?
For me the old yellow colour implies that the notes taken within the app are for easy disposal and will be poorly organised - just like how yellow paper is used primarily for quick throw-away notes and scribbles in reality (at least here in the UK).

The Notes app is far better than that, the white it uses now implies a more permanent organised feel which better reflects the app. The texts I store within it are important to me, they're not final documents but something I'd treat better than a disposable scribble on a yellow-pad. With the app's formatting, cloud and folder abilities this seems a good fit.

awesome[1] has pretty decent mouse support, as far as tiling Window managers go.

[1] https://awesome.naquadah.org/
I personally use awesomewm because I find it's easy to use with either keyboard or mouse. I've not tried other ones in a while so it could just be a case that I'm used to it though. Thinking about it, by "using mouse" I still need to use the modifier key...

By default:

Mod+Left click = move window

Mod+Right click = resize grid (when tiled) or window (when floating)

Social-signalling/being a 'high-end' phone is what the iPhone's success rode on, and there were no high-end smartphones (well, there was Virtu but they were more botique than mass-produced high-end).

There already exist a smorgasbord of luxury cars that are social signallers; Apple will have to do something much more 'revolutionary' than they did with the iPhone. There weren't any smartphone equivalents of Mercedes-Benz, Porsche[1] or Maserati.

I stopped working for N months to build an indie game (which eventually didn't go anywhere). That was a risk and had an associated cost (N months of lost salary, expenses, growth etc).

But because of my skills I had no problem getting back into a normal development job afterward.

That means that my risk was a lot less than someone who would lose everything if their plan didn't work out; the same goes for him. His risk was negligible.

You vastly overestimate how productive your employees can be past about 20 hours anyway. Hiring twice as many people would be a mistake since the ones you do hire should be more effective during their "at work" time.

Also, if you pay these people closer to full time employees, give them benefits, and make them want to stay they should turn over slower than a full time employee.
I think the hype goes back further than that, with OS X 10.5/10.6 vs Windows Vista.

Windows 7 really narrowed the gap between Windows and OS X, and at the same time OS X 10.7 took many steps backwards (black & white sidebar icons, no Save As, terrible multi-screen experience).

"The use of metaphors worked when people didn't know what a computer was, and the only way to make its UI make sense was to mimic real-world objects. Now, this is no longer necessary. It's been 40 years."

I disagree strongly. It is now more needed than ever. 40 years ago, the majority of people using computers knew what they were doing. Now, they're everywhere, and people interact with them every day. It's very common to have to interact with a computer we have never interacted with before, and the need to give visual clues to the user is far more important than ever before. It's also very common now for people to simply reach out and grab new software; a well-designed interface that uses visual clues and cues to help people achieve their goals is much more important now than the days when people would actually sit down with the manual to work out how to operate their new piece of software.

An interesting read, but if you're going this route how do you ensure that there are viable career paths for senior people who prefer to focus on code over "knowledge-sharing" kind of activities?

I suspect that part of the answer might lie in recognising that a lot of software projects don't need a particularly scalable development approach.

Good luck working with the solution once that individual has left your organization (or moved to a different part or role).

Solo development benefits a lot from the assumptions a developer can make about his own style, but all those assumptions turn into liabilities once the code passes into different hands.

The issue I had was with this as the answer to life, universe and everything: "thou shalt not have life outside of work."
I've struggled for years trying to get my headspace into the right place to deal with salaried work. I've got a very blue-collar background, and my first few jobs were in those kind of hard-hat & steel-toe boot industries, where you literally punch in and out, and your compensation is directly tied to the number of hours worked. In those situations, the calculus you're describing about "does this need to be done now, or can it be done tomorrow?" already takes place, since unpaid overtime is illegal, and if you need more than 40 hours in a week from an employee, you have to pay the premium for it.
article misses the point that things change. it's a different world now and the metaphors need to change with it. the desktop is now the computer, so desktop metaphors make no sense. flat design looks clean and quiet, I don't miss the days of skeuomorphism.
The Dock absolutely lost usability; all the icons look the same now. I practically stopped using the dock because I never find the apps I'm looking for quickly; I've switched to using Spotlight for opening apps instead.

The old "Pages" icon was instantly recognisable. The new one looks, at first glance, exactly the same as text edit and notes.

I don't think that the UI actually needs to get out of the way. We humans are perfectly able to ignore even the most obnoxiously designed mess (cf. banner blindness). But we are not very good at picking from many similar-looking things. Replacing the colorful sidebar icons with simpler monochrome versions now requires us to actively look for the icon you need, instead of just picking it intuitively.
Good read but it seems to me that the author escapes the difficulty of his side of the argument by creating a God-like super-architect. Hiring someone with the level of talent the author is describing would probably lead to great outcomes no matter what. If the team structure is broken that person would fix it. I'm not very familiar with the debate but I'd like to see a structure that works for the "average" architect since most people are probably closer to that.

Node Hero – How to Deploy Node.js with Heroku or Docker
There is an old macintosh print ad in the article stating something like: "A computer that everyone can use will get used by everyone". It immediately made me think of iOS. No matter how good you think the UI paradigm of the mac was at its peak, it doesn't compete with iOS in user friendliness. We've all heard stories of or witnessed 2-year olds who can navigate an iPad. That was never the case for a mac.

I wonder if some of the changes made to macOS (née OS X), were made because iOS has freed the mac from having to serve complete novices and very casual consumers, and instead focus more on serving a segment of professionals and serious content producers whose needs are different from casual consumers, and may be better served by a more subtle, muted interface.

The thing is that aesthetically, the new OS X look is overall closer to the pre-colour MacOS from 30 years ago. That GUI http://www.businessinsider.com/mac-os-i-through-x-2012-7?op=... is clean, approachable, sometimes funny; but at the same time it's sober, and communicates self-respect and a respect for the user and his/her work on the computer. You can see how even the original System 7 colourisation http://static6.businessinsider.com/image/4ffb37e469beddc9590... hurts that a little ... and then we reach Aqua, which is a fairground attraction in comparison. The new OS X look is an attempt to recapture the restraint of the old Finder in high-res colour. Which is not to say that it doesn't have issues with button visibility, something the old Finder went out of its way to achieve.

Refactoring – Don’t get carried away
This essay is nothing more than the authors opinion (which there is nothing wrong with) presented as fact (completely take umbrage with this). Looking at the authors website, the current design of Apple's UI elements are not to their taste. An example would be this; http://www.nicholaswindsorhoward.com/blog-directory/2016/1/2... The odd idea is interesting, but it's massively regressive.
Snow Leopard and Windows 7 marked the respective pinnacle of each OS to me, UI-wise. Windows 8.1 has some nice incremental touches... If only they'd applied them to Windows 7's basics. I haven't spent much time with newer OSXes, admittedly, and I'm basing most of my opinion here on co-workers' muffled curses.
The field of medicine is much too large for doctor's to know everything. They are usually not very knowledgeable about dietary needs, following the very conservative general guidelines.

See, for instance the NIH at https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminD-HealthProfessiona...:

In 2011, The Endocrine Society issued clinical practice
guidelines for vitamin D, stating that the desirable
serum concentration of 25(OH)D is >75 nmol/L (>30 ng/ml)
to maximize the effect of this vitamin on calcium, bone,
and muscle metabolism [37]. It also reported that to
consistently raise serum levels of 25(OH)D above 75
nmol/L (30 ng/ml), at least 1,500-2,000 IU/day of
supplemental vitamin D might be required in adults, and
at least 1,000 IU/day in children and adolescents.

1500-2000 IU/day corresponds to 37.5-50 mcg.

See the section on Cancer in the following article from the Mayo Clinic: http://www.mayoclinicproceedings.org/article/S0025-6196(13)0.... But compare to what the previously mentioned NIH page says about vitamin D and cancer.

I used DWM and derivatives (Awesome, etc) for some time but I didn't enjoy the automatic layouts. The split between primary and secondary areas felt clumsy to me.

I recently switched over to bspwm [0], and I really like it. Instead of automatic layouts, all areas can be split horizontally or vertically (similar to e.g. vim or tmux windowing). The layout tree can be manipulated in various ways, but the only on I use is rotate (ie. change vertical split to horizontal or vice versa). I don't have any status bars or launchers.

It's not all good, though. Just recently the config syntax changed and it was somewhat annoying to upgrade my old config to the new syntax, albeit the new syntax is much better. Hopefully it stabilizes soon.

It's also split in a funny way, so that bspwm only manages windows. It doesn't even listen to the keyboard, but typically uses another app (sxhkd [1]) for listening to the keyboard and launching a process (bspc) to control the wm. This is elegant and unix-ey but responsiveness suffers under heavy load. On the other hand, it's not tied together with a scripting language like e.g. Awesome is bound to Lua and XMonad to Haskell, which is nice.

Status bars and launchers are done with external apps but I don't use any at the moment. I do miss a desktop activity indicator a little, though (tint2 didn't work out of the box with bspwm, lemonbar was too hacky for my taste).

You think that 10 and 20 year olds growing up with computers and even smartphones available for all of their life, know less of computers than people in the past?

Even a 7 year old that plays games can almost run circles around a 1980s propellerhead computer programmer in using a GUI. Compared to regular people (e.g. office workers) from 40 years ago that just used DOS and some word processor or POS or accounting program, there's just no comparison.

Most of the concerns in the article can be alleviated by embracing Domain-Driven Design. Express Domain Model in code, create and share Ubiquitous Language - common for business and development within a single Bounded Context. In such case an architect modeling abstractions does it already in code - less translations, less room for waste. Code is the ultimate representation of Domain, even when diagrams, etc. become out of date. Not to mention that knowledge-sharing through collaboration is a fundamental process in DDD, for which everyone is responsible.
