• Today is the final day to register for the August 8 Ohio special election that will determine whether the state’s abortion rights Constitutional Amendment in November will need 50.01% of the vote or a 60% supermajority to pass. Are you going to vote in it, and how do you see the result going?

  Not completely on topic, but I wanted to share that I just wrote letters via Vote Forward (and had a letter writing party) for this election, if anyone wants to join in from not-in-Ohio! Source: 11 months ago

• Poll: Ohio divided on ballot measure threatening abortion protections

  If anyone is looking for a way to get involved and help defeat this, consider writing letters for vote forward: https://votefwd.org. Source: 12 months ago

• We all know that voting correctly is the only way we’ll regain our reproductive and sexual freedom. I’m trying to increase voter turn out and would like some input. If you have never volunteered for a political issue or campaign, I’d love to know why. No judgement, I’m just looking for info.

  Thanks for your reply. Just so you know, being a voting advocate for friends and family is an incredibly effective way to get out the vote. Every year, I contact all my peeps and make sure their registration and address are correct, and they know when, where and how to vote, so keep up the good work! If you think you'd be up to writing postcards or letters, https://votefwd.org/ and ... Source: 12 months ago

  No worries, going door to door is challenging for almost everyone. Maybe a letter writing campaign? https://votefwd.org/. Source: 12 months ago

• 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: 8 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: about 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
