Пожарная беседа с инженером: Что такое методология Scrum в тестировании?

Методология Scrum является гибкой структурой, которая обычно используется в разработке и тестировании программного обеспечения. В контексте тестирования Scrum может использоваться для организации и управления процессом тестирования таким образом, чтобы он соответствовал общему процессу разработки Agile. В Scrum тестирование является неотъемлемой частью цикла разработки и проводится в тесном сотрудничестве с командами разработчиков, дизайнеров и разработчиков.

UIUX Services

As a software engineer, understanding user interface (UI) design is crucial for building user-friendly and intuitive software products. UI design encompasses the visual and interaction elements of a software product, including the layout, color scheme, typography, and buttons. The goal of UI design is to create a seamless and satisfying experience for the end-user.

A page to book a meeting

Recruiters have literally launched an attack on every qualified employable individual in the US!

Rather than completely ignoring them, a solution that I have found is to charge them for talking to me. Their interest fell off rather quickly once this was implemented.

I have since iterated on this page several times, re-gained my time, and actually made some money! I'm putting this screenshot here for historical records.

Uma página para reservar uma reunião

Os recrutadores literalmente lançaram um ataque a todos os indivíduos qualificados nos EUA!

Em vez de os ignorar completamente, uma solução que encontrei é acusá - los de falar comigo. O seu interesse caiu bastante rapidamente uma vez que isto foi implementado.

Eu tenho itered nesta página várias vezes, re-gained meu tempo, e realmente fez algum dinheiro! Estou a colocar esta imagem aqui para registos históricos.

A Gentle, Minimalist intro to Machine Learning

Hello everybody! Recently, I've been spending non-trivial amounts of time on the fascinating subject of artificial intelligence. It's come a long way! With the release of Midjourney and ChatGPT, among other products, 2023 looks to be extremely promising, even revolutionary.

I'd like to recommend the following tutorial: https://realpython.com/python-ai-neural-network/

It is simple, sufficiently detailed, does not use tensor flow, and produces a picture at the end!

Currently Testing: my todo list should contain no more than 3 elements.

I have todo lists that are hundreds of lines long. It gets ridiculous, especially considering that I'm likely to perform the task and only cross it out much later, as the execution of the task was independent of whatever was written in the todo list.

I actually have a [personal policy of "no todo lists"], see that article for an extended explanation as to why.

Why 3? See [small numbers of items for mnemonic lists]. 3 items will fit nicely into memory. Any more than that, it gets problematic to remember, much less to perform.

An interesting lightweight js library for producing lipsync animation

Check out type76 on github to see what I am talking about.

Key points:

  • It's free
  • Produces ASCII animation that can be recorded as video, or played back interactively

Timing of sync needs to be set manually. This thing doesn't work with other voices.

Mozilla's built-in voice is ugly and barely usable, in fact, not useable.

I recommend... https://www.naturalreaders.com/online/ for voice generation

And you can record audio output with blackhole.

The Syntax of Linux Date Command

Hello developer, you've probably landed on this page because you were looking for how to format date, on linux.

You can get the same info as below by issuing this command in the terminal: man date. It's a little boring to read, but the built-in docs are always there for you. Regardless of that, here is the syntax of the command. Note the plus sign before the text in quotes (I didn't make the rules, the linux conventions are old but consistent).

Cities mockup (Travel Guide)

Continuing with the process of publishing examples of our work, below are some panels done for a travel guide. The panels are for actions List, Show of the resource City.

Nexenta - The Horizon Dashboard

Nexenta plugs into Swift, a component of OpenStack, to provide object storage to the OpenStack cluster.

A CI/CD Pipeline for Sturfee Inc.

Sturfee is a computer vision startup in San Francsico. They use map and image statistical analysis tools to derive “learned” properties from images. Sturfee derives “learned” information such as building position, dimensions, window count, and syncs with other metadata such as business entities and events that happen in a particular geographical location. Applications of this technology include travel & tourism, construction, and self-driving cars & urban navigation.
