fsr1967, to asklemmy in What software do you wish that existed?

We have given them written explanations, had meetings, shown screenshots. But nothing gets through.

They’re not paying attention, then. If they used it for a week, they’d probably just write off any problems as “eh, that’s how it’s designed.”

Some folks just don’t get that there’s more to writing software than the code. The human element is super important.

I think every coder should be forced to use their own software for one month out of every year they work on it (and be able to do the job that goes with it because how the fuck else are they going to get a clue?).

At my company, all developers spend time every year in customer support. It gives us first hand experience with what our customers are running into and asking for. We also work directly with field consultants on their projects. It’s not exactly this, but it’s pretty close, and it works really well.

Which IPTV provider?

I bought one of those chainsaws 30 years ago, and it Stihl works.

fsr1967, to asklemmy in I am concerned about my cars extended warranty. I've tried to call a bunch of places but they all laugh and hang up. How can I get someone to call me about ny cars extended warranty?

Drive out into the desert and find a phone booth. Park next to it. The phone will ring. Pick it up. 50/50 shot it’s them or your student loan officer.

fsr1967, to asklemmy in What system or method do you use for your monthly budget or personal finance?

Using YNAB’s sinking funds helped me get out of my considerable divorce debt. They’re like envelopes you put money into ahead of time, for every single category/thing you want to spend on or save for.

  • If you need to spend more than is in the envelope, you must transfer from another envelope first
  • If a bill is higher than expected, transfer money from another envelope
  • If you want to make an impulse purchase that doesn’t fit an envelope, make mine and transfer money in from an existing one

And so on. It’s a great system, and I continue to use it even though I’m now debt free, except for my monthly bills and car lease payment.
