• Community Engagement Software...help!

  I’d look into something like Wix or Squarespace for your actual website and Action Network for the remaining functionality. They have a free tier you can get started with and scale into paid features as needed. Source: over 1 year ago

• Black Lives Matter

  In my fourth blog post I found out through the BLM Twitter that more than half of the districts 54 schools lack running water in Mississippi causing students to return to online schooling. I also spoken about the events that occurred January 6th 2021 with the storming of the Capitol building in the United States, with attaching a link of a petition of demands since the event happened actionnetwork.org with 1,710...

  The BLM twitter account, again gave response and recognition to the events occurring 6th January 2021 with a link to a petition of demands since that event has happened actionnetwork.org with 1,710 people from their goal 3,200 signing it as I type this. Source: over 1 year ago

• Using Salesforce to fundraise for our NGO

  I'd look into Action Network (https://actionnetwork.org/) to do your actual mailing list stuff. It's much much cheaper than Marketing Cloud and can sync data to and from your Salesforce instance. It also has prebuilt tools to do event signups, fundraising pages, email ladders, etc. Source: over 1 year ago

• Waited several months for the priority batch access

  ...2019...good to know. The article was not dated and I should have known better. However, the cogent points from the article on actionnetwork.org were complaints I read on this site every day; 1."Transparency"...getting straight answers from I/C support; and, 2.Difficult to reach support for [all sorts of] resolution issues; 3."Lowest bidder" ...Watching batches disappear and then reappear with higher payouts,...

• Automating standups using GPT4 and Github APIs

  We think GitReport could replace standup apps like Geekbot. So we're making it into a product. More Git features are coming, like tracking issues and pull requests. Source: 9 months ago

• Agile / Scrum

  We run standups every day, however only 2x of them are a Teams call. The other 3 are run using a tool called Geekbot (Yes scrum masters do hate this) which is basically just a chatbot that sends you the standard standup questions and you can answer whenever you feel like it. This has helped our team heaps due to having such a huge mix of people in our team (Cloud Eng, Database Eng, Software Eng, Network Eng) that... Source: 12 months ago

• What do you really think of your daily standup?

  My new job recently pulled in https://geekbot.com/ to handle stand ups. Answer a couple basic questions when you login, and they’re all sent to a central channel. I’m not big on that type of communication in general, but it takes maybe 30 seconds each morning. Source: over 1 year ago

• As an IC, is there anything I can do about super cheerful team members using up meetings time?

  We use Geekbot to help standups. The feedback from each dev goes into a channel, then we talk about things that need to be addressed or things we're working on. Source: over 1 year ago

• Scrum Has Failed the Developers

  Back in 2005, I remember working on startups running on Scrum principles. It worked well at the time, we where able to ship, grow the team, and move forward with a nice few-features-per-week cadence, working remotely, on a small team; less than 10. Tt always worked fine, but very slow, as all-dev-things were at the time. I worked with ActiveColab in 2007, Skype 2007, Yammer 2009, Trello 2011, Pivotal Tracker 2013,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
