I'm not sure what you're getting at here. The same thing is true of Canadian citizens graduating from Canadian universities. If you want to work as a Professional Engineer in Canada you have to go through your provinces Engineer in Training program before you can become a PEng. I have Bachelors of Electrical Engineering from an accredited engineering program and would have to do the same thing as the OP if I wanted to become a PEng. For example, in BC (PDF): https://www.apeg.bc.ca/getmedia/f71c99f7-44d3-42c6-a313-70de...

Where I work teams are made up of a product designer, UX designer or two, devs, and QAs. The QAs are responsible for high level automated tests as well as manual testing for the parts that are hard to automate. It makes communication between devs/qa/design much faster as we all sit together.

Would you be able to elaborate on this a little bit? It seems like a contradiction to me but it's more likely that I'm not understanding properly.

Yea exactly! That sounds like a good solution

Hey HN, a guy I went to university with followed through with his idea to make a better alternative to the current camping mattress options. Incase you don't want to go to the kickstarter link (unfortunately it's the only product page he has so far) here's a brief rundown:

- Compressor is 7.5 x 3.25 x 5.5 in, 2.6 lbs.

- Foam mattress

- The vacuum packing takes 2-3 minutes to complete.

I'd love to hear what you all think about it. It looks like he's trying to raise money for injection moulding to produce a bunch now. I've never worked with manufacturing personally but from reading blog posts it seems that this is a difficult part of getting a physical product going.

Awesome! I was looking for something like this a little while ago and ended up using better touch tool, which does a lot of other things in addition to window snapping, but all I wanted was the window snapping.

I noticed that it doesn't want to maximize the window when I have an external display set up to be stacked above my laptop display. That's my default setup so I won't be able to use it, but still neat!
