For my business (micro-SaaS EdTech), the value of building trust with my customers cannot be understated. Further, I don’t believe i can effectively build trust with my customers in the way the author describes; without meetings.
Does anyone know what decisions he's referring to?
Is it ethical to say a software is now free for only a learning license?
From their GitHub page: “The data in this repository are the percentage change in seasonally-adjusted job postings since February 1, 2020, using a seven-day trailing average.”
Unfortunately, is is not very interesting because the study seems to rely almost completely on Facebook data. The effects on that platform were pretty predictible.
There are obvious questions left unanswered:
- What was the effect on direct traffic ?
- What was the effect on paid subscriptions ?
- Are people effectively less informed ?
So they are not exactly lying. just being extremely dishonest.
Theyre sooooo dishonest.
Rubocop is a linter (etc) whose rule set can be easily customized and to include it in Rails wouldn't be possible without _some_ default set of rules. DHH addresses this apparent contradiction directly, too: "Not such that I, or anyone, can mandate what style your codebase ought to be written in, but such that you can find and enforce your own." I'm reading: A linter/formatter will be included in Rails 8 with a smart default rule set, and it can be easily customized. I don't see any contradiction.
I'm highly aligned with this decision as it could help alleviate a recurring pain point at our tiny company: managing code formatters and linters in our IDE (Solargraph, Rubocop, Ruby LSP, etc). Further, I'd expect excellent documentation on how we can customize the rules to best suit our purposes, too.
Well, the Rage team certainly is opinionated!
