I have never been fortunate enough to work for someone who does code reviews. Even in my current job, with lots of developers and 3 DBAs, there's no code review....

A thousand likes on this editorial, Grant! WOW, I've never heard of juice jacking or the rest of it. In this case, ignorance although it may be bliss, it can...

I'm envious, Rick. You're environment sounds like one I'd like to work in. I understand my management's decision, made long before I came here, to adopt lots of vendors software...

I've never heard of either Pocket or Buffer. I assume you're referring to these two locations: getpocket.com and...

Grant, I've been trying to build a persona, as you put it, for years. At first I was against it. I was brought up with the idea that it is...

In my previous job I worked for a university. The benefits there were great. Lots of vacation and sick leave. Training was encouraged (as you'd expect from a university). However,...
