I've used a lot of Redmine, Phabricator and Jira. Redmine feels really old and dealing with upgrades that will necessarily break one of the plugin needed to make it decent is painful. If you don't touch it, it works just fine though. Phabricator is really cool, requires some good tech knowledge to administrate, biggest pain point was the ci cd apps that were more complex than the rest. Jira is what I'm currently using, works great for all but your Jira admin will decide of your happiness, a bad setup with bad workflow will kill productivity.

Ugh, I know all about this. We use Jira where I work and the implementation was so botched and horrible that it easily costs me an hour a day just fighting the awful workflows, required fields, etc., that were put in place by someone who had no idea what they were doing. Not to mention the fact that the same person accidentally wiped out our entire issue database/backlog during a maintenance window one evening.
I’ve worked with Jira before and while it’s not perfect it can be set up pretty well. But, man, when it isn’t, it sure is hell using it.
There is an interview of Snowden by John Oliver where he comes to that conclusion as well, asking people about the usual things that surfaced and people just meh, then translates it into: gov got your d*ck pick and people get upset a whole lot more
I've seen that interview. I lean to the side of "nothing to hide, not bothered". I've never taken pictures of my penis; I assume that it's not really that common. If it is common I'd expect it not to be common for people over maybe 25? Or only common for people who want others to see unsolicited pictures of their genitals.
I mean if you did make "dick pics" and were bothered about people seeing them then you likely did it wrong and your ISP had access and your phone provider had access and your backup service provider had access. At that point, why would you - short of guilt - be bothered that the government might have potential access in a situation where you were accused of a crime. If you're on the "nothing to hide" side of things, how does that push you to any other position.
In short, it's pithy, and Oliver probably made good talk-show level comments but I don't see it as really being a persuasive way to couch the argument for greater privacy.
I believe the underlying idea behind "dick pics" is that people are guided to think of something that is embarrassing to them. When you tell people they should stop using Facebook if they want to protect their privacy, they think of all the things they've freely shared and associate Facebook with positive memories - my friends liked my post, they laughed at it and shared it. When you make them think of "dick pics", they think of something that is taboo to share in most social circles, and associate it with embarrassment/negative memories.
The issue is that many of the things people share on Facebook/Twitter/etc are actually "taboo", and people's evaluation of them is just wrong. As an example, the story of Justine Sacco, a person who would arguably be even more aware than the average of the impact of public statements, still did not manage to correctly evaluate that the things she was sharing on Twitter would lead to a serious backlash and witch hunt against her.
The worst part is, you won't necessarily get instant feedback, like Justine did. You may post something "among your friends"(in reality, publicly on Twitter), all your friends may agree with you, and then several years down the line you will be judged by a completely different social group, looking through your records. We don't tend to accommodate evolution in people's beliefs as much as we do for ourselves - try the defense "I'm not that kind of person anymore" to strangers and see how often it works out(no need to try on your own, just check out how easy convicted felons have it when trying to reintegrate into society).
I mean it was used for comedic effect. But imagine in 15-20 years that you want to run for Congress. Anything you emailed, wrote, video chatted about in your past is fair game. For blackmail, to discredit etc... The context doesn't even matter as it can be manipulated. You see this in political attack ads already.
Biased as well, but for that other side of the world: Atlassian Engineering culture is amazing, and repeatedly ranked best place to work in Australia. Atlassian is also very actively hiring in Sydney with great relocation experience (feel free to poke me on that).
Sourcetree is a pretty crummy product regardless of how maintained it is. It reveals a culture that seems to hold basic usability testing & concepts almost in contempt.
I've seen on multiple win10 laptops where it just get all download bandwidth (no noticeable upload) to a point where websites won't open and skype looses connection. That's on a 5Mb line. I do see many connections opened by a single process on Microsoft IPs mentioned.
I believe it was really only update related but I saw it happen when actually no updates were available.
I just ended up limiting the corresponding process bandwidth whenever it gets annoying.
One into the other, I'm mainly just very surprised this kind of thing can happen. Except that I'm fairly happy with win10 though as opposed to the usual MS bashing we can hear.

I'm happy to see Angular2 getting closer to a release, and as many other companies we are in the case of what decision after Angular1.
One thing I think will be a great push for Angular2 is Ionic2 which alone is reason enough but to be honest I prefer the `Aurelia way` when it comes to writing web apps which sounds more natural, Sad to see Aurelia hype haven't took much so far (understandable that it's getting harder to get people on board a new `revolutionary` JS framework).
I too like the look of aurelia. However, I really like the auto import management, refactoring, syntax highlighting. I use Webstorm & didn't see any blog posts or anything about how to set up Webstorm with Aurelia. So I'll go on learning Angular 2 for now.
