Great tool, love the calendar picker to check the DST overlap weeks.

I use also timeanddate.com. It suggests acceptable time slots and can be saved in favs with selected cities, i.e. https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20...

I like this sentence as it's something business stakeholders can unddo. And even the article focuses mostly in refactoring it can be used with many other good habits.

For instance monitoring has a price to set it, configure it... You can avoid part of the price by setting up a simple monitoring It has a cost as you're not going to catch early on issues in prod. And the latter you realize something is no going well, the higher the cost will be to fix it, loss clients...

And we can go on with many things as well, UX has a price, testing has a price, backups have a price...

Hopefully the writer don't think he has found the final reason to justify why refactoring is a must as there are many other best practices were low price will imply higher cost at the end. Wasn't that what we used to call tech debt? XD

This example on python exceptions on their sample queries... The second result is a very opinionated result about exceptions considered and anti pattern https://sobolevn.me/2019/02/python-exceptions-considered-an-...

Maybe this was tweaked to be catchy for developers but I don't think is the right thing to see as the second entry.

If you search for exceptions you want to learn how they work, that is what 99% of the people would need. An entry like this is dangerous for instance if you are just someone trying to learn about them.

IMO this is a red flag about the quality for a search engine. Maybe they are just targeting seasoned tech people who would see this content interesting. But definitely not a search engine for the masses.

Aren't these complex as any other piece of software that is looking to provide value to users?

I've been developing software solutions for several years and the fact that a computer can do cool stuff, automate processes, be more accurate... always need users who know and want to use it. So my takeway is that with AI solutions the human part also needs to be considered.

I see very little interest on thi new spec... Is there any niche usage for it?

I think the point of this article is how the Meet team handled the increase usage, not whether if this product is better of worst than competitors.

I bookmarked the article that can be seen as an engineering approach to solve a problem like this.

Not all have to fulfill the hippa. For instance I know one of the greatest stores chain in my country that is still using win2k. Good OS by the way XD...

But this netstat thing is only taking into account those computers with Internet usage. Would the amount of corporate, administration, financial... computers limited to intranet usage be long enough to modify this graphic?
