I'm surprised how little attention Bitbucket-related stories get here. We use it at my work, and it seems to do the job, but I rarely hear about it in the dev community compared to GitHub.
Is GitHub just that much more dominant, or am I missing something?
It means they're going full remote. From the article linked in the comments:
> The company is also going fully remote, Dohmke wrote, telling staff they’re “seeing very low utilization rates” in their offices.
“We are not vacating offices immediately, but will move to close all of our offices as their leases end or as we are operationally able to do so,” Dohmke wrote.
I agree. I developed a Pinterest-like app around the same year they launched. I even had a perfect domain name for it. Being a perfectionist, I never shipped. I was worried about things like scaling to support tens of thousands of photos, a "similar images" feature, etc. A few years after abandoning the project I discovered Pinterest. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Totally agree about the RSpec book, what a nightmare going through the examples, seems to me like they're trying to convince you that RSpec is good for you, but...I'm already reading the book, so just cut the crap and teach me how to write good tests based on realistic scenarios.
