Leading our day are the improvements in Mozilla’s Firefox. Take a look at the improvements that they talk about to see if you want to give it another try. On Feld Thoughts, we get an excellent post on rebudgeting for the second half of the year. The main point is not to reforecast, but to look at what performance was in the first half of the year and plan accordingly. Silicon Valley Data Science has an interesting post about what you need when building data systems. It is one of the more complete posts I have seen in this regard, so definitely take a look at it.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
