No wrong answers.https://twitter.com/michaelborn_me/status/1165969304308858881Ben Nadel - Blog - Solutions Don't Have To Work For EveryoneI used to believe that when I added a new feature to a web application, said feature had to help all users. But, as I've grown older - and I've had to operate under greater constraints at work - I've come to embrace the idea that solutions don't have to work for everyone. A solution that adds value to some segment of users is just that: a value-add. And, there's nothing wrong with incrementally adding value to an application. Especially if you're incrementally adding value on a regular basis. In retrospect this is so obvious that it seems silly to have to articulate; but, this was not always obvious to me. And, I'm excited to be adding more measure and perspective to my current Product Thinking.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/3688-solutions-don-t-have-to-work-for-everyone.htmBen Nadel - Blog - Shape Up: Stop Running In Circles And Ship Work That Matters By Ryan SingerI've been a long-time fan of the good people over at Basecamp (formerly 37 Signals). Their books, like It Doesn't Have To Be Crazy At Work, have a knack for cutting through industry mythology; and, their designs are clear and effective. I've even fantasized about pulling some of their user experience (UX) decisions into InVision. So, when I heard that Ryan Singer wrote a new book - Shape Up: Stop Running in Circles and Ship Work That Matters - I immediately prioritized reading it. And, I'm glad that I did - it's easily one of the most important books that I've read in the last few years.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/3687-shape-up-stop-running-in-circles-and-ship-work-that-matters-by-ryan-singer.htmBrian Klaas - Blog - Start and Stop the ColdFusion 2018 Performance Monitoring Toolset from Anywhere in the Mac OS TerminalOnce of the really nice additions to ColdFusion 2018 is the Performance Monitoring Toolset. This is a very robust tool which helps you see directly inside the black box that the Adobe ColdFusion runtime can sometimes be.I develop on the MacOS, and any time I restart my machine, I have to also restart the Performance Monitoring Toolset. Rather than having to change directories to this directory each and every time I need to start or stop the Performance Monitoring Toolset, I’d like to simply say “Start the Performance Monitoring Toolset” no matter where I am in the terminal.https://brianklaas.net/coldfusion/2019/08/26/Start-Stop-ColdFusion-2018-Performance-Monitoring-Toolset-Anywhere-In-MacOS-Terminal.htmlTweet - Andreas Schuldhaus @cfexpertGlad to see that there is a much more diverse line up at #CFCamp2019 cfcamp.org/sessions.html Looking forward to a great 10th anniversary of the conference #cfcamp #cfml #coldfusion #luceeKai Koenig - Blog - Yeeeeah, there’s that ColdFusion thing - Why CFML is not the web development tech zombie everyone thinks it is.People who’ve known me for a bit would also know I had a life before mobile development on Android and Flutter.Apart from being a Flash- and Flex-developer for a few years and being quite involved in those communities, I’ve been doing back-end development since the late 1990s. For that I mainly used various JVM-languages and -platforms. And still, a good amount of my work revolves around the integration on mobile apps with back-end services.One of the platforms I use for this is CFML. Yes, the infamous ColdFusion Markup Language — quite often erroneously known as ColdFusion in short.https://medium.com/@kaikoenig/yeeeeah-theres-that-coldfusion-thing-2198ae435ec1Tweet - Ben NadelI finally figured out how to find the Modernize or Die (@ortussolutions) podcast on Apple...

He could lose hundreds of thousands of dollars. This client’s company was stubbornly sticking to ColdFusion 8. It kept piling new lines of code onto its existing apps.
