Re:The User Doesn't Care – But you should
on Sunday June 07, 2026 @06:03PM (#48439041)
Actually we comprehend some of the phrases. Users does not care ... because they do not know the real effect of this. The customer or end user only deals with the business output. If you ask a customer that you can deliver a product in 3 months without unit tests and in 4 with unit tests all of them would choose 3 months delivery unless you tell them the importance of the unit tests in the long run. Or if you ask a customer whether to use VPS or cloud they would just want to go with the cheapest alternative. One thing that IT professionals do not get is we tend to think everyone is IT literate about most of the concepts.
On the other hand a purely technical may lead an overthinking about some aspects. The real challenge is to optimize the roadmap so that it includes all the technical must haves along with prioritising business outputs.

Being exposed to many bad news daily from all around the world, unfortunately, all parents are forced to limit their children. And we do it even though we know we are limiting their development as well. Of course there are many neighborhoods that kids still play freely but the ratio is undeniably going down :(

We were already using AI in excel but manuallay copy pasting the macros and doing the things by ourselves. This will make us save really much time. When you have automated macros it is really fun to deal with excels.
Re:We have a 99% email reputation. Gmail disagrees

This mainly depends on what is the general lifecycle of those emails and how does it interacted with users. If you are sure that you never spamed any users before , then we should think about how the google spam labeling works. For example if you send a bulk email for a mailbox of many emails and those emails were labeled as spam then it may cause this situation maybe.
Is there a way to get life cycle of your email box from google maybe ?

One of the goals of Ubuntu has always been to make you feel like you are using windows. Seems like it achieved this in terms of resource usage:)

But people are nondeterministic. Sometimes you cannt directly explain ehy but it still happens. Hope the second million dollars bome page twill be successful as well

I generally prefer doing operational stuff (checking traffic, making small configuration, checking logs etc) rather than writing code.
