I wonder were this meeting was . Interesting price of history.

Thank you for this video! We discussed the similar topic on our latest video but we tested Staff Augmentation and Outsourcing on two different projects and shared our results so people can choose which one works better for them

But what if the cost of overcoming the bus factor involved hiring four people to back up or replace one, and the margins go negative? Then the ROI on fixing the bus factor is negative, so is it just better to just deal with the person that knows how to do everything and wrap him or her in bubble wrap?

Looks great. Slick minimalistic design. Was the theme built with sage or some page builder?

That's awesome. You guys hiring EU nationals? 😀

That thumbnail had me thinking you guys playing online chess as part of your team building. Now that's the kind of company i'd want to join 😂

😂

Just dont edit the core and nothing will break.

Hey, i couldnt even done backup, even if i wanted to, I was a See MTA LV player, 1200 hours of progress is gone, 5 properties etc... should have worked RL and bought stuff IG instead i suppose? all this happened 3 years ago

Great overview of staff augmentation! It's clear how it can be a game-changer for software development, offering flexibility and expertise exactly when needed. This video is a must-watch for businesses looking to scale smartly and efficiently

I do hate WordPress as a full-stack developer, however when the client doesn't meet my expectations in terms of payment, that is my go-to solution. The CMS is a mess but low budget invites that mess.

Great info, and also great logo!

Maintained Drupal sites for years, the backend was easy to get started extending, but the frontend management lacked a lot. Switching to WordPress was great for the frontend management, but the backend PHP was like jumping into a cold swimming pool.

So, don't modify the theme itself (maybe a child-theme) and don't modify the core of the CMS or Framework. Great advise for a newbie like me! Thanks guys!

WordPress is a mishmash. It's not for "beginngers" nor developers. Go ask a beginner to use it and tell them to make a custom theme. There is zero help for this, no tools inside WP, no generators, no built-in instructions, it's a 2nd class citizen. A beginner might know some HTML and CSS but they'll have no idea how to put those into WP. You want a custom theme, go dig into docs or find a 3rd party to generate one, etc. Nothing beginner about that. Ask the beginner to set up custom fields for their needs and output them into their templates. Whoops, no real information or built-in abilities for that, and if you have a theme, you can't edit those template anyway, and there is no built-in help to create a child theme so that you can override templates. No instruction that any of that even exists. How does the beginner add some functionality? They can't, not unless their commercial theme provides tools and settings in the UI to tinker with things. The beginner is 100% dependent on a theme, the settings the theme gives, and finding plugins for every feature they think they want. WordPress is heavily plugin focused. Writing your own modules/plugins is not a built-in experience and there is no help how to do it without exploring Google to figure it out. So we turn to the advanced side of things. Even this is still dependent on plugins. Even developers will use ACF Pro or Metabox or something to deal with their custom post types and fields. And while WP can theoretically do whatever is needed through its PHP framework (functions, filters, hooks), we still rely on plugins for the complicated stuff. In other words, "we have complicated stuff to do, so better not use WordPress!" But it's actually the opposite I find. "We have complicated stuff to do, but here are plugins that do it on WordPress so let's do that!" Nobody wants to write ecommerce from scratch, WP has WooCommerce. Nobody wants to write membership system from scratch, or caching, or calendar/events, ticket sales, scheduling, advanced animated sliders, content indexing, etc. Since WP has plugins for all these, it becomes the CMS of choice. If I have "complicated" things to do, I don't choose Craft or MODX or Processwire where I would have to develop all the complicated stuff from scratch, I would find pre-made options on WP. If I have a simple site without complicated things, then I choose other frameworks/CMSes which will be more performant and modern. WP still forces a blogging system on you when many sites may not use blogs. I have to install a plugin to remove the blog when it's not needed! Yet it's called a "CMS" but doesn't actually give us any tools at all to manage content. Can't create content types or fields. Any CMS worth its salt will have a way to create the actual content. But as a "framework", it's too bloated, providing too much by default and not making the development of custom themes and modules a first class experience. Both the developer and the beginner have to spend all their time Googling for how to do things, or finding themes and plugins to get the features they want. There is no longevity for highly custom WP sites either. I've come across custom themes, and they are filled with outdated code, orphan code, unused CSS. I don't see any better architecture writing custom stuff than just using a theme and hope it maintains updates for the future. I've seen so many themes that come and go with a few years of updates and then get abandoned. Themes that are dependent on builders like Elementor or Bakery due to licensing abilities. We are only just now entering a time where you can create a fresh copy of WP and actually do something custom with theme and templates via the full site building tools. Yet the developers seem to all hate these Gutenberg tools because more developer-friendly advanced tools exist like Bricks, Quicly, Zion, whatever. Even Pinegrow. As websites become more heavily developed with the page builder experience, tools like Framer are getting the spotlight. We are regressing, or perhaps advancing, to a new era where all we need is a robust page builder stacked on top of a database/management interface. I wish things were better.

These people don't realize WordPress is a framework. We are aware of how things operate as well as how they do not. WordPress is one of the reason PHP has survived to this day.

How to do staff augmentation? B2B? Social Media marketing or what ways should be adopted?

Lots of memories there. Thank you for the video Tony 🙏

I was sad too when I heard the news about the office! So many nice memories with everyone there, specially you Tony… However I’m happy to hear the company keeps going strong and I wish you the best for 2023, keep it up!

Thanks for sharing the information

✋ ƤＲＯ𝓂Ｏ𝕤ᗰ

Great conversation guys

It's been great working with your devs! We certainly don't mind if they or our own team save on their commute time as long as they have some place to sit and be productive. Same story here, we have simply decided everyone generally prefers remote and not to go back to the office, and projects are moving along well. I'm now 2 1/2 hours closer to Montreal and farther from KOP, and loving every moment of living out in the woods 🙂

Congrats to SimplyPHP! Tough decision, but mostly an open minded decision 👏

Great video!

💪 Glad to be part of this wonderful progressive team

Better - honest title would be: "What WordPress is not meant for"

Thanks man

The cause of the fire was a mechanical error in the generator

Glad to see others talking about this topic! You may be interested to see similar stories and related thoughts here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGaxo62AlJqda5o

Awesome. A few recommendations though. (consider backlog as "Inception Phase" for ideas / tasks in planning). Add Elaboratoin Phase in the beginning (to identify time spent on meetings for Requirements Gathering). Plus, name "Blocked" as "Impediment", then add "Construction Phase" (instead of Coding / Doing because everything that exist is always in Doing state already so Doing and To Do form bad taste and are irrational, specially in terms of Project Planning; Cost Control), then name "Staging" as the "Transition Phase", after "Production" add "Retirement Phase" (although in Product Development it means different but you can use it for uprgadation and for removing Technical Debts, refinements / enhancements)

Not to mention plug ins may not get updated and overall page speed results.

I like that Raph pointed out the 5 whys, to get to the root cause of a problem. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts about time management and how entrepreneurs can learn how to schedule their weeks better.

As a suggestion to OVH, put all data centers in a same building so one fire can destroys all the data. afterwards you can release a statement as "backup was your responsibility, no refund available."

That's very true! And we're a B2B agency ;)

Finally *Hacks_roof01* on Instagram perfectly recovered my lost documents , after been scammed severally by different hacker's he's legit and reliablë

Well said !

Good video! 👏 I reckon you’ll get a kick out of my buddies videos also --> #IroncladMotorsport 🚦

According to Techempower Benchamrks Swoole (Async) PHP is gives three times more throughput / spped than Node.js. In terms of performance, Swoole (PHP) competed Go and .NET (Core), however due to its "Ease of Use" it leaves behind all technologies. With PHP's FFI system PHP code can talk to low level system libraries (written in any language like C++, RUST or Go) without needing PHP-Extension. We know PHP 8.0 is out and it now has JIT. Phalcon is a PHP-Framework that provides MVC/HMVC/Micro Architecture in compiled (PHP-Extension) form which means a PHP Developer is not bound to use only Phalcon, but with Phalcon one can mis any other PHP framework / library so as to be able to get the architecture in compiled form while having other libraries from other frameworks. I have succesfully created a PHP framework which combines Phalcon PHP and Swoole (compiled PHP Asycn Framework)
