   Good, but not the best.

   While Asana is a robust task management and project planning tool, in my experience, it falls slightly short when compared to Trello, particularly in terms of user-friendliness and simplicity. Asana offers a variety of features such as multiple project views (list, board, timeline, calendar), custom fields, and reporting tools, which can be highly beneficial for complex project management. However, I found that the learning curve can be steep, especially for team members not familiar with this type of software. The interface, while feature-rich, can feel a bit cluttered and overwhelming for new users. On the other hand, Trello shines in its simplicity and straightforward design. The visual card and board system is intuitive and easy to grasp, making it a more accessible tool for team members of varying tech proficiency levels. Additionally, Trello's user interface is cleaner and more streamlined, which contributes to an overall more enjoyable user experience.

   In terms of collaboration, both tools provide good collaborative features like commenting, tagging, and task assignment. However, I appreciate Trello's flexibility with its Power-Ups, allowing integration with a wide array of apps which enhances its functionality. In conclusion, while Asana is a powerful tool with extensive features, I prefer Trello for its ease of use, simplicity, and intuitive design. However, I do see the value of Asana for larger teams or more complex projects.

• The Text Field is the New Dashboard

  Product teams shift from designing navigation flows to designing API surfaces and tool definitions. If the primary interaction is a text field, the quality of experience depends on the quality of tool schemas exposed via MCP, not the arrangement of buttons on a screen.

• How to Get Status Updates from Engineering Teams Without Losing Your Mind

  As trust and organization improve, gradually scale back the frequency of updates. For example, transition from daily to thrice-weekly check-ins, then to twice-weekly, and eventually to a single weekly update if the team proves reliable. This approach respects the team’s ability to self-manage while ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. Pay attention to the team’s culture - some may thrive with informal Slack... - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

  - Code: https://github.com/benjaminfh/researchtree Note: the hosted app currently requires signup (workspaces are persisted + shareable). If you prefer not to create an account, the repo supports running locally (including an Electron build: npm run desktop:package with a local Postgres instance which is quick to spin up using, e.g., https://postgresapp.com/).

• DuckDB is probably the most important geospatial software of the last decade

  PostGIS is included in Postgres.app which is a single executable for Mac. DuckDB appears also to be a single file download for Mac. I’m not sure your “when I was first learning PostGIS” experience reflects the current situation. https://postgresapp.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Test Driving a Rails API - Part One

  A running Rails application needs a database to connect to. You may already have your database of choice installed, but if not, I recommend PostgreSQL, or Postgres for short. On a Mac, probably the easiest way to install it is with Posrgres.app. Another option, the one I prefer, is to use Homebrew. With Homebrew installed, this command will install PostgreSQL version 16 along with libpq:. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

  There are two ways to connect with the Postgres database which can be in the terminal or using a Postgres GUI client app like DBeaver.

The setup and installation come with the psql command, a tool shipped with Postgres that allows you to communicate with Postgres through the command line. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
