  • I’d suggest that 95% of Jira complaints are actually about corporate culture which is felt most keenly through asshole PMs trying to micromanage you through a ticketing system. It’s mostly a fine piece of software - if you have a certified wizard to configure it it can be great… if you have a dummy it’s going to be barely usable - but you can say the same thing about github issue tracking.

    The unfortunate thing is that the teams most likely to use Jira are also the teams I most likely never want to work on.




  • Foo is both the first and fifth item - Foo is the first item in that segment (or slice if you’re a weird golang programmer) but it is also the fifth item in some sir-not-appears-in-this-film list that is responsible for the odd numbering. If I said “I just finished the fifth item on our todo list” you’d mark off Foo because that’s clearly what I was referring to.

    Places can have two labels (or more!) and, for bonus points, zeroth is a thing because we both know what that word means.
