A nice addition, we are currently using LassPass Enterprise, and the UI is absolutely terrible, but being the only game in town kind of forced our hands... now there's options!

joshfinnie | 11 years ago | on: The 'SimCity' Empire Has Fallen and 'Skylines' Is Picking Up the Pieces

Cities: Skyline is a great game. It really fills in the gaps that I had from Sim City 5, but it's iterative; it's definitely "picking up the pieces"...

I am hoping that with some future updates this game gets to the point that it replaces the Sim City franchise completely for me, but it's off to a great start.

I am still on the fence about the usefulness of Janus as someone starting with Vim. Sure it gets you closer to ST, but is that really the end goal? Why not still use ST?

I agree except for the fact that his concern with tip4commit is that it wouldn't exist if bitcoin wasn't available. The fact that bitcoin is what is making tip4commit to run without much regulation is Armin's main point.

We have been using ZenHub for quite a while and have to say that it has been a great change from Trello. As a developer, I was already in Github all the time, so adding the pipeline process within Github is awesome.

It hasn't been without it's issues, but I would highly recommend trying it out.

That's a good question... I was under the assumption this was for gmail only. I guess I will have to wait for an invite and test it out myself.

joshfinnie | 11 years ago | on: Google Inbox

I am sad that this seems to be Gmail only. Why have developers lost touch with standard IMAP protocols so we can use these new fancy apps with any email provider...

joshfinnie | 11 years ago | on: Firebase is Joining Google

First off congrats! I have been following Firebase for a long time and think it's a wonderful product. That being said, I really hope they stick to their word and use the resources at Google to expand Firebase keeping it open and not make it a walled garden.

joshfinnie | 11 years ago | on: Docker Acquires Koality in Engineering Talent Grab

This seems like a smart move, but I am still weary as to where Docker is going to land as a company... (the software is great; don't get me wrong)

However, in the grand scheme of things, the more smart people working on Docker, the better!

edit: Yes, I mean "how are they going to make sustainable $"

Read: Dune by Frank Herbert

Reading: Foundation by Isaac Asimov

I have been trying to get back to science fiction after leaving it for so long. It's great so far!

joshfinnie | 11 years ago | on: Ansible Quick Start guide

This is a really nice overview of how to get started with ansible. If you haven't tried it out, this should do nicely as a resource.

Just remember this is a quick start guide and the power of ansible is just touched on here.

joshfinnie | 11 years ago | on: Designing a URL structure for BBC programmes

It is definitely something I forget to think about and when seen at the scale of the BBC it's an amazing thing. Might have to start thinking about URL structure a little more now and this is a great resource to get me going!
