The current model enables the same behavior and makes it harder to track. Stalled projects have ongoing costs that make the project developers real money in exchange for no real effort. The same donor simply says “hey mr politician, give my company the exclusive contract and never mind that my aunt owns a building in our way. I’ll only charge you 30% for each year we are stalled.”

We burn money on these projects either way. A good windfall to property owners gives regular families a chance at enjoying some profits… and makes donors who block progress just a little easier to track!

has anyone had success using mermaid diagrams for real-time collaboration? Seems you should be able to use this to draw pictures while chatting with someone, akin to a white-boarding experience.

Yep, I'd be happy to chat. I'll try to DM you on Twitter

I've had good luck using containerized development environments along with VS Code's Remote Development features. In short, set up a container image that has all of your dev dependencies and maintain it centrally. Developers can create containers off of this image and work in their private container. When an environment change is needed, someone can make it centrally and then others update their containers.

This doesn't solve the problem of distributing developer-specific configuration, and limits the UI tools that can be used, but if you can live with these constraints then it allows you to treat your development environment as yet-another-service!

An easy path for Apple to find data is simply to look for codepaths in web apps that are webkit-specific. They can take simple approaches like looking for usage of safari-specific CSS extensions are user agent sniffing, or invest more and actually profile running applications to observe unique codepaths taken on Safari vs. other browsers. I don't think anyone ever got to their keyboard and thought "I hope I get to re-implement my feature to work on Safari today!".

At Aserto we recognize this problem and address it by offering candidates a choice. They can either take a take-home assignment, or opt for a whiteboard style interview question. This approach lets us meet candidates where they're most comfortable and removes a degree of bias from our interview results.
