Does anybody have experience (or ideas) on how to best managed db seed and migration scripts in a mongoldb context? I would like to discuss solutions.
Does anybody know of a hosted alternative to lokalize.com, which does not cost an arm and a leg and offers feature branches?
Just found this series of an Obsidian developer critiquing plugins. I like his style and gives good insight into how to develop plugins.
⤑ Critique your plugin #2 — Obsidian October 2024 (via Critique your plugin #1 — Obsidian October 2024).
⤑ 2025 Stack Overflow Developer Survey.
The results are in.
⤑ git worktree.
I did not know about worktree’s in git. This sounds handy when debugging and wanting to compare two branches. Or when checking PRs.
@V_ I've known about this for a while but, for whatever reason, haven't made it a part of my daily workflow? Might be time for another try

Wow, sub 12 hours turnaround on an AppStore review. I can’t remember having such a fast submission ever.
My first Obsidian Plugin is finally published. The one on the bottom left.
I’m back in Jira. Today’s task was creating user stories for the new project.
@V_ Jira! User stories! You’ve just summarized so much of my life for the past six months. We’re rebuilding our endowment reporting system and, as an accountant, I never imagined that I’d have to use Jira this much.

@jabel I’m going to assume that “Jira!” is something accountants cry out when they’re very happy. Please don’t tell me otherwise.
by dwalbert on
@jabel reading this makes me happy. That sounds like a good project for the devs! Most projects I was on the business side was not interested in writing user stories or working with Jira. I was lucky yesterday that I had the stories already written out and just needed to copy past them into Jira.

@dwalbert I'm not sure about accountants, but Devs sometimes use that when they despair ;-)

@V_ It’s also a Thai restaurant in Thailand.

@odd :-D the perfect location for a Jira user group meeting.
by V_ on
@V_ I hear it’s a great tool for that! ???? ????
by pcora on
@V_ It’s been a lot of work but it’s going well. I told the project owner one day that he had attended so many meetings with accountants in the past few months that he could be one himself. He replied that he had finally gained enough confidence to reconcile his bank account. ????
by jabel on
@dwalbert Ha!
by jabel on
@dwalbert Certainly nobody except accountants cries out “Jira!” when they’re happy.

@odd It also means cumin in Hindi although with two 'e's @V_
by pratik on
@pratik «Jeera»? Cumin in Norwegian is called «spisskummen» or sometimes «spisskum» or «spisskarve». Earlier it was written as «spisskummin».
by odd on
@odd Yup, that's right.

@pratik Randomly poking nose: I don’t remember what drama I was watching recently but I remember wondering whether there were (and being surprised that there was) Hindu nationalism. I’d have thought you’d need a solo god to rally behind.
by Moondeer on
@Moondeer Oh no! Hindu nationalism has been around as long as the religion. I mean, what good is your religion if you don't tell people of other religions that yours is better. Yup, there's plenty of gods but when it comes down to hating Muslims, they all seeem to find one god to rally around. In fact, this is happening in two days.

If the process you’re using software to address is not your businesses core competency, anything but bog standard commercial-off-the-shelf software should be looked at with great skepticism.
Jason a makes good points when companies should just use the off the shelf solution instead of developing something themselves.
But as a developer I need to fight the urge to try to implement something custom only because the default solution is boring.
I had to debug an interesting issue today: One request to a background system is constantly failing when done by our server. But works fine when I try the same request via curl. The error message for the failing one is ECONNREFUSED. I have no idea why it would not work :-(.
@V_ And on top off all this sometimes it works, for some time when you restart the server process. I think it must be something with the firewall. But I can't looks at it myself. And I'm out of ideas what else could be going on.

I fixed dependency hell by removing all my external dependencies. it was possible because I only had two of them and it is a hobby project.
Anyway, I still lost two days I could have used for features.
For the case that we have Rails and Devise experts here, I could use some help with this issue.
⤑ Devise authenticate_admin_user! does not work after upgrading to rails 5.
@V_ Ooh, this does look interesting. Thanks for sharing. Will check it out.

@lmika The plugin shown in the first one is also interesting, its an alternative to the Daily plugin which has some more logic in it. I was actually thinking about writing a script which does part of this. But so far I have not yet tested it out.
