  • A software engineer at Atlassian got laid off in March after 8 years. His response: a 38-minute YouTube video showing how the company's entire tech works, free for anyone to copy.

  • Jira is extremely configuration dependent. It can be good and it can be awful. Companies with bad processes will configure it in the same way and I believe that's where most of the hate comes from. Bitbucket is pretty decent by now. It's just not very feature rich. But that's not really a problem for this type of software if you hand over to other tools with the extensive web hooks. But confluence... It feels like it has been stuck in time while Mediawiki is continually closing the gap. Especially automatically updating pages is a pain with the weird and fragile code that represents the pages internally.

  • As someone who is using the Atlassian stack daily, Bitbucket (self hosted) is by far the best product from the stack. Jira is okay if you actually plan on using its features extensively. Confluence is... Well, it tries. I'd even prefer plain Mediawiki over it.

  • That's what some people claim. If I remember correctly, it was determined that these large scale prestigious events are a net negative.

  • Depending on the source DNA seems to have a half life of 500-1500 years. This source calculates with slightly over 500 years. Permafrost samples may be more on the upper end of the scale but the message would be similar:

    A study of DNA extracted from the leg bones of extinct moa birds in New Zealand found that the half-life of DNA is 521 years. So every 1,000 years, 75 per cent of the genetic information is lost. After 6.8 million years, every single base pair is gone.

  • Even under the best preservation conditions, there is an upper boundary of 0.4–1.5 million years for a sample to contain sufficient DNA for sequencing technologies.

  • IPv6 is not insecure because it lacks a NAT

    Jump

  • I don't think so. Other technologies get adapted much, much quicker. I believe there is an underlying issue that makes IPv6 just not as attractive to many people.

  • IPv6 is not insecure because it lacks a NAT

    Jump

  • At this point I don't think people will. People want to look at IPs and instantly understand what they mean, identify subnets, etc. IPv6 is good but it was not designed with people in mind. And it's paying the price. We need a new standard that people feel comfortable with.

  • I agree, the ecosystem seems to be focusing too much on hype and not enough on a strong and secure foundation. I'm still hoping for the best but I feel must more hopeful towards Linux on mobile devices. They are moving at an excruciatingly slow pace, though. Not enough resources and hands.

  • I didn't say they need to rip something out. I didn't say their current efforts to open up weren't valid. I specifically said that I don't know whether it would have made sense to start with reduced requirements.

    I just stated that they didn't "happen" to only support Google. I simply acknowledged how they knew exactly that the standard they were writing would only be matched by one vendor as they were writing it.
