I find it a bit misleading that there isn’t a single mention that the feature is currently in beta.
I’m not saying publishers can get away with anything with a simply “beta” label, but it’s an important fact to mention if you’re going to release a whole piece about this…
Hey, this is pretty insightful! Wonder if, in the course of researching to build this website you reached any conclusions as to what’s the AI assistant currently ahead.
Amazing! The internet never ceases to surprise.
Thanks for the share. Too bad that service only goes up to 2TB... I'm at 8TB already, and going up.
I intended to make this submission about an alternative and not so much criticism about Backblaze. But you're right, I vaguely made some criticism and I definitely think it warrants a better explanation.
I also 100% agree with what you say about product updates, I want my backup provider to be relatively static and slow in changing their product as long as it is robust and it does the job.
On the more specific reasons I think Backblaze is a little far behind in UI/UX: - It's very hard (or impossible) to know if you're 100% backed up after you add new files to your HD. - When you go to the website to check if your new files are backedup, the web page is extremely slow and outdated (I'm talking windows xp style interface iframed into a modern page). - When you get a new HD, because you're constantly filling this things up, the transition process is very sketchy, to say the least. Technically you go through the same process as when you loose an HD, which might make sense, but the process is very slow and the user doesn't get much feedback as to the progress and state of it. Which is particularly nerve-racking when you're dealing with a huge and priceless treasure trove of information.
That said I do have to make a caveat in favor of Backblaze. Not only it is reasonably priced (100$/year, new pricing), Backblaze seems to be design to run continuously on computers with lots of storage and with their HDs connected at all time. That's why they don't bother giving the information about the completeness of your backup, or even making a good web UI for it, because I guess their target user just turns on Backblaze and never really looks back at it. And forget about sharing files through Backblaze, it is 100% a backup tool, not a modern cloud file tool.
It should be said that I fall a bit off their target user, I want to backup my external drives that are connected only when I add new files, and not my whole computer, all the time. This is also the motivation to once in a while look for an alternative in hopes of finding a better solution.
Thanks for the tip on SpiderOak, I'll have a look into it.
Shopping? I was wondering if that's a platform of that just means go shopping for a tool.
Thanks for tips stop50 and 7moritz7!!!
Indeed, indeed. A bit of a overkill but that would do the job. Will give it a try. I hope I can produce lighter files than with QuickTime, though.
Thanks! That's as good validation as it gets.
Indeed, merge policy management and enforcement is a pain point for a lot of companies out there, specially for the ones growing up and trying to keep a solid process with new people coming in.
Not examples of source code, but we've been gathering lots of code review tips in this open source repository: https://github.com/reviewpad/code-review-tips
Well, that sure is an entertaining read. I can't imagine what the struggle was. Back then I would do ridiculous small bets on rising crypto coins and feel extremely stress, I can't imagine what you've been through...
We have been working with teams doing trunk-based dev and actually applying some of the principles to our open-source repos. This articles walks through how we automate PR merges and reduce unnecessary builds using Reviewpad.
Yeah, it's pretty neat. I like it visually, although I never had any problems with the order of submissions.
It would be interesting if this could be a browser extension that modifies the original Hacker News so we can upvote and comment.
For some reason it's always interesting to look at this tear downs.
What's also mildly interesting is that the phones don't have a single screw on the outside. It's all glued/clipped in.
I love this new quote I heard a few days ago: "The slowest way to validade a feature is to build it" Let alone over engineer it...
Some obvious points in there, but overall solid advice. It's always good to stick to the foundations.

Wow, this is some inspiration right here. Never too late! Also, do you have a pain, build a solutions! Congrats to that retired engineer!
Indeed, that was it. I think maybe we'll give it a try!
We're actually looking for a static website platform, to use in tandem with Docusaurus. Any guides on how to do it with Docusaurus alone?
Awesome!!! We're the ones thanking!
Adobe it's a classic case of Sales-led-development, which started to generate a huge organisation that is very slow and far away from it's users.
On the other hand you have a Figma, product-led, figuring out what's best for users, and kicking ass with a web-based solution that IS what designers/devs need. Legends!
Yep, that brought some quick flashbacks...
I think that one of the things currently hurting tech companies today is the belief that "all PRs should be code reviewed".
Treating all PRs as the same, will lead to waiting times all the same was well, probably 1-5 days long, which is crazy high with todays knowledge and technology. We can do better.
Exactly. I was stunned at the "Tesla FSD beta testing on kids" part, not the other way around.
Wait, what?
Don't know about you, but I wasn't expecting to see Golang as #1 beginner-friendly language. Still, it's a pretty good list, and on point if you want to make a career in software development.
Amazing. This is asking for a lot, but it would be amazing to have multi-room capabilities. My apartment has in-ceiling speakers and this would be a nice hack, but if I need a Symfonisk per room, I much rather have them just sitting on a shelf somewhere.
I'd say that the industry area you're doing B2B promotion can have great impact. Our company is in software development B2B and, unsurprisingly, paid advertising typically doesn't work with software developers.
What we've seen that work's well is the 3) option that you mentioned, convincing (or also paying) somebody with a great network to talk about our product.
