Yeah I concur wirh this. Apologies if I've for the intent of this wrong but stand ups are intended to be a team sync point where questions are asked, mutual understanding reached and I doing a 1way update seems counter to the intent of a stand up.

It definitely has its place to provide opportunity where you can't all meet together but it you'd to rely promote questions and discussions following this by all team members to avoid it being a box tick

seems to me like the guy who started out as a one-man reseller host scaling out into something he's nowhere capable of managing.. scary to think how many of these are out there

What your describing is essentially a business analyst, albeit a technically minded in whilst not being a developer. I consider myself of the same ilk and I think the best thing you can contribute is input and UX/UI design, sanity checking of ideas, feedback from users etc.

The facilitation role between users and developers is so much more than 'documentation' which alot of the comments in this thread seem to suggest.

I suggest contacting a few of the projects listed here, or any you find on GitHub you'd like to contribute to and just offer to help.

interesting chart - just as an aside, im getting a 'phishing warning' on that link from Chrome.

that sounds like an interesting concept, similair to part of what something I am working would like to acheive. Are you providing a structure or allowing 'interviews' to be whatever form/structure the interviewer wants? good luck, its a problem i havent seen solved properly yet!

thats a great set of TCP timeout stories, enjoyed reading. In what circles do you travel that you comea cross multiple niche stories like this?

Cool thanks Geoff, will do, I'm very intrigued now.

isn't the point to block OTR. a core concept of both of them is knowledge capture and searchability which can't be done properly if your only having part of the conversation.

my thoughts exactly - what does this give me that a chromecast doesnt? i dont care for a controller (or for games).

i can't think of anything this can do (that id want to do) that the chromecast cant for a lot cheaper.

from reading the other replies in this read (and the above) it seems that the next windows server release will have ability to run both linux and windows containers.

that sounds promising...

ah nice, we looked into octopus at the time but was still early development days and was too much of a risk, otherwise pretty much the same stack. I can see what you mean re server config, would be a lot easier with docker than what i was hacking about with vagrant.

thanks for the info!

whats your current deployment strategy, series of powershell scripts or something chef/puppet based? We had a powershell based setup and my previous shop but hardest part was maintaing and deploying different databases to make the tests relevant.

How do you think docker containers helps (as Im not sure it would have helped in my previous situation - too many other base issues to deal with first)

does this mean docker support will only come from wont come before the next drop of windows server? i.e. current windows platforms wont be docker-compatible
