Ask HN: How do you plan and track your tasks?
TLDR: I use Todoist, Clockify, Gitlab issues, Google Calendar to plan and track my work, but also have to use notion and slack in relation to tasks. I also used Trello extensively in the past.

My problem is that none of the tools I use covers all variants of things I need.

1-Clockify is good to track where my time goes (and is used by my employer to roughly track how much resource is used per project and kind of activity. It has no planning ability. So I should plan somewhere else and then use Clockify to track the time.
2-We use Gitlab issues for tasks that relate to product features, bugs, ..., but it's not usable for meetings and such activities.
3-Todoist is a good personal Todo list. It's good for things that either should be done on a specific time, or should be done in priority. Not good for things that should be done periodically, especially if you have many of those.
4-For meetings, using a common calendar is a must. To be able to find free time, etc.
5-Trello is great for a simple Kanban experience and for its core features, but for things like time tracking it rapidly becomes difficult to use.

So I end up having to check Todoist, Calendar, Gitlab issues regularly to decide what to do next. I also need to use Clockify to track the time of the task I chose from those products. If something from Todoist escalates to become a team task that should not go into Gitlab, I have to delegate it, and keep the task open in Todoist to remember the follow-up.

I think that experience is not optimal: I like to have one tool (that ideally integrates well with Calendar, Clockify, etc), but check one single place to decide what to do next, and track my time from there, and if I delegate, it should go in a separate list, and ideally I should get an even better experience if some of my team also use the same product.

I'm even ready to start a project if none exists, but I hope I can find something, as I know it would be a non-trivial effort.

1-How do you plan your team's tasks and your work related tasks ans personal tasks?
2-Are you aware of such an all-in-one product?
3-If not, do you think there is a reasonable demand for such a service?

Feasibly how many people are there who can TL Korean into Dutch? A few hundred? And they are doing top level work in diplomacy and business.

So what happens is that there is one Korean>English master script that Netflix uses.
Twitter has never had a 180 character limit. It was 140 characters (based on the 160 character limit of SMS), but it's now 380 characters.
Death rates are still quite high - 1500 deaths per day, the maximum were around 3000 in February 2021. This is in times where lots of precautions were still in place (school masking for example).

Life expectancy in the US dropped by a year in 2020 [1], with much worse drops for minority populations (3 years for the latino population) and 10 years of progress of equalizing white and non-white life expectancies has been reversed.

Is this an acceptable steady state for society? I don't think it should be. This is all preventable and we otherwise spend lots of resources on improving these metrics.

What you are saying sounds like people being done with lung cancer and start smoking again.

Well, I have.

With both .net and nodejs.

They both do the job fine (you mention 10K LOC, but I’m not sure that you mean because that’s still comfortably tiny — a one-person app at most, where pretty much anything works.)

In my experience they both scale just fine. Your limiting factors are much more defined by your app architecture, dev group politics (as reflected in response to management), and what I’ll call your dev workflow process (how many minutes is it, between when you as a dev make a final, correct source change, and the change makes it far enough that another person can see and evaluate it in the software?)

That is really nice, thanks for sharing.

Currently in the process of finding a house, and specifically avoiding HOAs. They'd never let something like this fly, which IMO should be illegal(not your yard, rules banning something like your yard).
I'm in full agreement with kingnothing here...and in fact if your industry / niche is such that you need to do these things, you need to gain domain knowledge even more than you need to talk to a lawyer.
Every lawn in my neighborhood has all of that, in addition to patches of green grass. Not many houses I've seen just have perfect manicured golf-course style green grass with no other plants.
The other benefits of a degree beside learning are:

* Makes it way easier to get a job

* Great social experience
Agreed, though AFAIK only if it is you doing the defending of yourself and your family, not automation, not booby-traps. This discussion started around defending property remotely vs. defending ones own life in jeopardy.
It is not great news for engineers, I am not going to learn some proprietary tool that does not translate to more job opportunities.
Wow, that is a very naive dedup algorithm.
It seems to me that both sides, through negotiation, arrived at the "correct" answer to the problem, which was withdrawal of missiles from Cuba and Turkey. In what way was the US response considered a shitshow, and why are US negotiators not considered as cool and wise as the SU ones here, considering they had to ultimately arrive at the same place?
I've fiddled with more details than I've bothered to write down. Here's a couple of the less common ones (that I'd consider "essential", to me):

- Customized the response curve of trackpad scrolling. (I think no other browser has this feature? It's actually the top thing keeping me on Firefox). On my specific hardware, something like this is subjectively "snappy" and "precise" and "out of my way":

mousewheel.acceleration.factor = 0
mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount.factor = -1
mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_{x,y,z} = 40 40 40

- Disabled all fonts with about:config's 'downloadable_fonts' toggle. (An alternative is uBlock's remote-font preference, which can be toggled on/off per-domain. That's a useful escape hatch).

gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled = false

- Enable uBlock Origin's opt-in "annoyances" filters, which affects maybe half the web including every last GDPR banner:

https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Dashboard:-Filter-lis...

- userChrome.css is much more featureful than I understand; I just use it to adjust native widget font sizes:

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
#tabbrowser-tabs .tab-text { font-size: 13pt !important; }
#urlbar { font-size: 17pt !important; }

- Firefox bookmarks can have *keywords* that macroexpand in the URL bar; these lower the friction of casual non-Google queries:

en -> https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%s#English
man -> https://dyn.manpages.debian.org/jump?suite=bullseye&binarypkg=manpages&language=en&q=%s
hn -> https://hn.algolia.com/?q=%s

- Obscure privacy settings that should have gone into the main privacy panel, IMO:

No it doesn't make sense. You should not be able to capture anything darker than 40, or brighter than 60 if you are limited to 40-60. (actually by the file format, not the sensor, sensors today have higher dynamic ranges than 8 bit sRGB) It should not turn 40 into 0 and 60 into 100.

We adopted a policy the a `date` type is always interpreted in the reader's local timezone, which is sort how humans think of it anyway; put differently, a `date` type is always relative to the person's watch that is reading said value.
Am I aware that I am in very happy circumstances? Sure, absolutely. I am. I also worked hard to be were I am today. While I don't do everything for money I still worked very hard to be were I am today.

Less than 15 years ago, I was well below the poverty line. In the meantime, I live well. And I can't complain.

Still, I know that as the child of a middle-class single father, I am clearly counting as privileged.
A few companies ago, we were (essentially) a TSDB marketed toward network performance in particular. We had some large telecom companies as customers. We stored all the time-series in UTC, but the analytics data shifted by an hour twice a year. This caused a whole lot of false alarms for about a week following both time changes.

This was a solid ten years ago. I don't think the problem was ever solved in the general case. We wrote them a script that support would manually run and shift all the analytics forward or back by an hour.
Wait, what? Weekly mowing? What the hell? Who does that? This sounds absolutely disastrous for grass and its ecosystem. I don't see a reason to mow more than a few times per year.
Flutter is the most popular cross-platform mobile SDK (already handily beat react native) and its not web-tech. It's now posing a very stiff challenge to native platform-specific UI frameworks. Many folks who wrote used web-views to developer apps are moving to flutter.

I'm following what says at the official Microsoft documentation.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/sql-server/install/hard...

Am I unwise for following the official Microsoft documentation for a Microsoft product?

Yes, I'm unwise for following it. I shouldn't have accepted the project because it required Microsoft technology. That would be wise.
I don't think there is an error thinking there ought to be more. I think we need to find what fills that emptiness. Something that gives life, your life, a sense of purpose and meaning. For me, it's knowing that I chose to come to this planet. It's knowing why I choose to come, what I'm supposed to do while I am here. And when I do what I know is right, I feel the emptiness fill up and I become much more than I could ever alone.
You aren't characterizing either of my posts in a way that I recognize as anything like what I'm asserting. I'll boil it down:

- Britain is not "inherently suited" to providing financial services, it built that suitability through violence and extracting wealth through colonialism and racist systems like slavery (which, though abolished in britain itself, it still remained a central figure in financially supporting the trade long after).

- Countries "suited to" resource extraction are so suited because of brutal campaigns by colonial systems. The character of how this campaign was undertaken is somewhat different in Africa, the Americas, and the middle and far easts, but the overall nature of it was roughly the same.

- Capitalism emerged in the aftermath and continued exploitation of this relationship, through to today, for its entire existence.

I do not say that "capitalism explains" anything. I say that "capitalism was born from these things, and they are inextricably intertwined". Not necessarily in a causal relationship (though in many complicated ways there's plenty of blame to be leveled), but simply because it has never existed without the existence of classes considered, in some way, to be sub-human (though the ways we degrade people to this state now are more nuanced than they were in the explicit chattel slavery days).
That's not really an argument. All you've done is label the Yeltsin administration a democracy, and the Putin administration an autocracy, and then told me a democracy is more democratic than an autocracy.

What I specifically want to hear from you - presumably someone knowledgeable about the political history of the Russian Federation - is how the Yeltsin administration was more democratic. Because my understanding is that the Yeltsin administration was extremely unstable (ie Yeltsin shelling the Russian white house after trying to unconstitutionally dissolve the parliament).
Zapier and Airtable != to a full no code platform like Bubble.

While your critique of automated testing is valid, the others are largely solved. Even integration testing can be done with third party tools.

Bubble is awesome if you have a fairly simple CRUD app that isn’t likely to have millions of concurrent users.

Most of the best devs I know are bored to tears of building those kinds of apps anyway, so no code has a nice niche in that ‘in between.’
Deodorant doesn't prevent infections, pretty sure that is what parent was referring to. Not showers.

My lawn gets most of it's water from rain actually. We supplement occasionally when necessary. But during drought we just let it go a little brown. Not a big deal.

I still love my lawn and mowing it is a very nice break from sitting on the computer.
The same is true for Kubernetes too from my experience. Only the very basics of it works cross provider.
I've seen this chart too. But research != Production. I bet that TensorFlow is still more commonly used in serving than Pytorch because of great tooling like TensorFlow Serving. I could be wrong though, as I'm not up to date with the latest in the Pytorch ecosystem.
It's worth it, you'll be glad.
That sounds horrible, unless the CEO is writing and executing SQL statements on his own, directly against the database.

If I'm sitting in Seattle VPN'd into a network that geolocates to South Carolina, and I send an HTTP request that terminates on a front-end box in Texas and sends a SQL query to a database in Ireland, what timezone will be used in the result?

And why is this better than just making the same calculation in the UI layer?
A lot of those plastic tabs work just fine when something is just made because the plasticizer is still present abundantly, then later, when it has evaporated the parts become brittle.

You have a very submissive attitude. Do you do the same when a thug threatens your family? Or when bullies at school ask for your lunch? You just give it to them? Sorry, but your comment is pathetic.

In real life, a logarithmic brightness scale (which is how human perception works) goes from negative infinity (zero energy) to positive infinity (infinite energy) – excluding both endpoints. 0 is not the bottom, and 100 is not the top.

In real life, photographs are printed on paper. The brightness of light reflecting off paper depends not only on the colour of the paper, but on the brightness of the illumination. (Likewise, photographs displayed on a computer monitor depend on the screen's brightness.)

In real life, human brightness perception depends on the brightness of the environment. An LED can look bright in the dark and dim in sunlight, and range dim to medium to bright on a cloudy day without anyone really noticing that the clouds between them and the sun are thicker or thinner.

In real life, there is no 0. There is no 100. Your comment doesn't make any sense.
I agree and prefer practical books, which there aren't enough of in the industry.

But it was helpful to start with his books early on in my career.

I wouldn't recommend to seasoned managers, as it does suffer from too much fluff as many business books do, but his message sets a good tone for new managers to aspire to.
> He's not a scientist. He works in Public Relations.

Really? How is this relevant AT ALL?

It is a logical fallacy to invalidate an argument based on the messenger [0].

You have to argue against the evidence, not the person's qualifications.

If a criminal yells "Fire!" you don't ignore him because of who he is. You look at the evidence and act accordingly.

If you want to argue against what he is saying in this video you have to invalidate the evidence he is proposing. Saying "he is just a..." is absolutely meaningless.

Math and science do not operate this way. Which is precisely my point. We need to start to discuss the truth. So much of what we do is based on personality worship, it's sick.

Note that if you spend a lot of money online, extensions like Honey or Capital One Shopping won't work as they often use a url parameter for tracking affiliates and thus giving out cash back.
You might give them a friendly hint that this might be a criminal offense, depending on the state they or the state their conversation partner is in. In California for example, this can be charged either as a misdemeanor or a felony, both with hefty fines and up to multi-year prison sentences.

Once the unfamous "AI" based FPS cheat is made ez to everyone, non-lan competitive FPS games are probably in a very bad spot.
Yup, because we devs switch databases every week. That's the real reason why all projects are late: we are so busy switching databases all the time we don't have time for writing code!
> The signals aren't for a specific location, they are world-wide. So the "for Las Vegas" part doesn't work.

The whole point of GPS is that the differential in signal timing between the signals from the transmitters on different satellites tells you how far you are from those satellites, and thus if you know where the satellites are supposed to be, that tells you where you must be.

As a result, recording the signals in a desert outside Las Vegas three weeks ago is by far the easiest way to get... drum roll... the signals which when received by your GPS receiver right now will convince it that right now it's three weeks ago and it is just outside Las Vegas.

> Replay attacks are just a kind of denial of service

Nope, as explained they're actually a very common and effective spoofing tactic. The receiver doesn't say "No service" it will tell you that you're outside Las Vegas three weeks ago.

> Spoofing attacks are far more dangerous, and cryptographic signing defeats them effectively.

Spoofing attacks use the same principle (although of course they'll tell your receiver it's a few milli-seconds ago and it is somewhere nearby, not outside Las Vegas three weeks ago).

Signatures make no major difference, this data is authentic it's just second hand. Everything checks out, that's why they do it.
From my experience it serves very well for validating inputs of large forms - e.g. loan application, international payments, etc.

If you need to validate some business logic like if sender's account has funds and receiver's account is not blocked, then this approach starts to look a bit strange. I would guess that the most of the time developers would implement checks so they would fail on first condition and would not check later one. This would result with single error in the array that kinda would look strange.

Validating business logic and returning several errors at the time requires good knowledge of the domain and in depth design of the system you are working. As this creates more complexity and slows down delivery, most of the time it is ditched and used only for particular use cases.

We could say that this would be more applicable to corporate solutions, but IMHO it really depends of the scale of the project, man power and the user experience you would want to create.
In the post the writer mentions Keypass being the worlds best password manager and I see a lot of similar love here.

Has Keypass improved a lot in recent years. I always found it incredibly clunky and ugly and getting it to work with browsers a real pain.

Bitwarden seems like a steal at 10 bucks a year and avoids the stress of trying to self hoist the keys to the kingdom myself.

But I see such love for Keypass and wonder.
Sounds like democracy. Neighborhoods with enforcement voted for it.

If you've ever lived somewhere with 'that one guy' who completely flouts the norms in all regards, it's easy to see how people decide to enact regulations. I lived in such a place, and the whole neighborhood had to live with his stinky, half-burned shade-tree mechanic operation with junked cars and chemicals everywhere for years before he could be forced out. He didn't even live there, he had a house somewhere else. What finally pushed the city into acting was when we were able to document rats.

After serious cleaning (including hauling away truckloads of contaminated dirt) there's a nice little house on the old lot that matches the rest of the neighborhood, and we can forget what a jackass Verl was.
I'd recommend his TED Talk over good book though, if anyone is looking for a TL;DR.
I had so many issues with this, it feels like you have to keep track of whret you do changes and when it has synced it. Otherwise it won't merge and you will have to do it manually.

Bitwarden is so much easier sadly.
100% agreed. Start with the $10 plan. I forgot how much it cost for the middle tier. The one benefit of the higher tier is you get access to better GPUs, and can run multiple colabs in parallel effectively getting multiple accelerators at once if you're doing distributed hyperparameter tuning.

That's an extremely aggressive response for an entirely subjective viewpoint.
"Tiny home village" is just a fancy name for "trailer park" - there's no fundamental difference.
Not an expert, but apparently the latest ASHPs still have a CoP of around 2 at –20°C and unity at –30°C, which is pretty much the extreme low for the less-sparsely populated parts of the country. Ground source HPs are of course better in that respect but the initial investment is larger. Apparently GSHP is the most popular mode of heating in newly built single-family homes.
I can assure you I'm not. I'm not really very interested in mercantilism, since it's not the system we live under today.

> You are quite right to criticise colonialism as abusive and extractive, but that wasn't Capitalism.

Colonialism never ended (in spite of the existence of an academic field called "post-colonialism"). The extractive relationships still exist, and are reflected in capitalist relationships. You can't just go "London's a great place to do finance!" and pretend there's nothing behind that. It's a great place to do finance because for hundreds of years, both before and after the emergence of the system we call capitalism, a significant portion of the entire world's wealth was syphoned by force into London. There's no way to abstract that away without becoming trite.

The one I was replying to talked about brain processing. Whatever it is doesn't need to and shouldn't be reproduced in photography as the protograph gets processed just like everything else when you look at it.

Reality --> eye --> "brain filter"

Reality --> photo --> eye -> "brain filter"

Cameras should only record the colors as accurately as possible. Or if you want to nitpick again, so that the photo stimulates the eye receptors identically to whatever was captured.
