I guess product-related (PO, PM), UX-related or business-developer/sales jobs, maybe for tech companies
The idea is to allow everyone to suggest and implement technical improvement by providing a process to do so. For each idea, the owner fills a spec to describe it. The main ideas are: - Be transparent on what we want to do and our issues, the doc should be public and comments-friendly - Follow an advice process by proactively asking people to improve or challenge the idea - Always have by a trial with time boundaries and goal
A template could look like this:
- Owner: Name
- Title: to easily speak about it
- Reviewers: people who should definitely have a look
- Summary
- Why: Describe what are the issues with the current process, the bugs or similar.
- What is the change
- How to implement the change
- Duration of the trial
- What should we've achieved at the end of the trial
In your situation, it might be something like:
- WAthrowaway
- Staging env
- Reviewers: Founder, Senior Eng #1...
- Setup a staging environment
- We encountered critical issue #1 on October 1st, issue #2 on October 2nd
- A staging environment would allow to catch this bugs before it is on production
- 1. Create a staging env 2. Create a staging branch 3. block push on master 4. PR staging / master
- 1 month
- Critical issues happen on staging and not on master

Quote > We plan on remaining entirely free for individual users and only charge for team features (we are still discussing what those could be). Hence it's only businesses that decide to use Station across an entire team that would eventually have to pay.
Ask HN: Example of successful exits for distributed team
One of my peer was arguing that exits (like acquisition mostly) is (almost) not possible for distributed technical team. Main argument being that the buyer would want to have the technical team at one place.. Do you have any counter arguments or examples of such acquisition?
Ask HN: What's your favorites conferences?
I have in mind tech related conferences but it might be something else. Why do you appreciate it? Do you attend the event? Watch it online?
It's time to reinvent organizations
We help retailers (Groupe Casino, Groupe Auchan, Groupe Cora…) and hundreds of consumer brands (Groupe Seb, Nestlé…) to get value from their data. We provide a platform built on top of a domain ontology. This graph allows us to represent large datasets (products catalogs, retailers historical data…) into a very expressive language and develop services based upon them: semantic search engine, recommendations, advertisement… We are a dedicated and dynamic team of engineers, computer scientists and technicians passionate about statistics, machine learning and cutting-edge technologies, working closely with a business team obsessed with the product. We seek sharp and open-minded data & computer scientists.

I think that whatsapp retrieve your phone number thanks to your sim card or similar so I don't think that someone can hack your messages
Often people around you like parents or siblings only want to help you, I totally agree that theirs opinions is not necessarily the good ones but you should also try to understand them
(I am also biased by the fact that in France we have unlimited call, messages and data connection for 20€ ~ 25-30$ per month)
