Ultra-marathon runner, private pilot(small planes), dabbling skydiver, and more prominently a mid-level .Net developer with a Bachelor's of Science CS degree; just started the next phase of my professional career(albeit still a code monkey). Would love to hear from fellow HN posters.

I thought they were the Africanized ones? Those were the ones I read about as a kid in my school library, and the way they depicted their projected spread across the USA made it look like a pestilence worthy of…
It is, but some interviewers can be intentionally vague.
> > is the list sorted If I were the interviewer, this question would almost make me dock points off of the interviewee Why? Knowing that can be a useful filter to reduce the search time and space, assuming whole…
And how much time did you spend updating your new information with the government, your banks, your work, and other services that you interact with?
As someone going through a Master's in CS to get into ML, this makes me a little sad.. (though I do understand what you're getting at)
Not all of us used Android when Flash was available for it
Does $72K go far in Sweden? I would assume not due to taxes...? I'm in a position of ignorance so I'm just looking to get a better idea of what it's like there :)
My last job in finance(still am in finance fwiw) used much more VBA to price out billion-dollar swaps and swaptions than I was comfortable admitting to...
Reading this thread, with all the Javascript talk, makes me feel like I should be scared of continuing to be a C# developer..
I ran into a similar issue myself. Why would PayPal, of all companies, have a problem with this?
I wish I could say I found them remotely, but alas these were literally friend-of-a-friend type deals. More details: One of them was a bakery that was taking all its orders on paper, so I developed a simple but powerful…
I have; it can be tough especially if the client is a demanding one. For me it was more like 10-15 hrs/week, but sometimes it'd easily be 30 hours if things were broken or some new deliverable came up. Luckily my wife…
Public health - would you willing ingest fish or other foods if you new how badly it was tainted?
> While there's a lot of plastic in the ocean it's relatively thinly distributed. It's not like there's a bunch of bottles floating in one place. It's a bunch of plastic dust in the water column. But it's distributed…
"Keep your army fighting fit with this one simple trick!"
My Honda CR-V will periodically beep with "NO KEY" lighting on up on the dashboard(say I give my wife the key to get inside our home on a crappy day while I go park the car elsewhere), but doesn't make impose any…
1). Marrying my wife 2). Sticking it out in CS undergrad when I was having a hard time with the material instead of dropping out 3). Leaving shitty jobs(though I could've left sooner at each instance) for greener…
Same here! I even saved my password in KeePass only to find I still can't login!
Nope; happened in Boston and NYC. They have signs up at each one specifically saying they want a signed credit card.
> America is so stuck in legacy tech. Nobody checks signatures. The USPS sadly still forces credit card users to have signatures on the back. They don't check signatures against the PIN pad / signed receipts, but the…
So that's what I should've done while I was there so we could've gotten a legit database to handle our yield curves processing! We were expected to do everything in Excel, and if we were lucky, MS Access :|
> Last time, Boris and Natasha were outside the polling place and wouldn't let me in. Tell that to Moose and Squirrel.
Got any tips on how to get going on a site like Upwork? I'm not sure I tried that one before, but I had a horrible experience on Freelancer.com and I've sorta shied away from those since then. I have enough on my plate…
I can't read the article(blocked at work here), so at face value I agree with you. But then the question is, how do you go about measuring the latter?
> Shhhh don't let them know. Funny thing is that Professional Shops and video companies are really starting to embrace these open source libraries. Oh, I haven't worked there for a few years, but someone I know already…
