I was on a small team at an early-stage startup, and felt forced to do 7+ hours of good work every day due to pace and visibility. As a self-proclaimed productive dev, it was pretty obvious who was slacking or…
Why I am not religous: 1. Leap of faith is risky, while science is based on repeatable experiments. Kind of like when you're building a house, instead of hoping and praying the foundation is stable, test it to be…
Playing a game like LoL is like being in a battle or war. Would you watch anime and shoot your gun with 'muscle memory' while fighting 5 ruthless, intelligent opponents? A fight requires constant reevaluation of the…
Dam that's brutal, to think that slavery can still happen here and now via essentially blackmail.
Faangs always seem to be hiring, not sure but having a LinkedIn seems to get inbound Faang recruiters, at least for me as a US dev. And startups, YC who's hiring has worked for friends, I'm sure grinding applications on…
I think there are many straightforward answers. Try to get the $500k jobs. If that doesn't work and you don't want to grind LC for 6 months, go for $150-200k jobs like startups. If you are as good as you say you are,…
As an iOS dev who's had to deal with Apple's lovely rules, could you go more into this part? I'd like to hear more. '... why "the market" hadn't already corrected [Apple's ability to cut people off], and why regulators…
As a dog food lover (product dev, not Purina), I found this very insightful. I may frame it on my wall.
TurboTax recently tricked me using some dark UI patterns into spending 30+ minutes painstakingly filling out my tax forms in a way that made it seem like it was for the free filing. Only at the very end, did they reveal…
It just seems like addressing the symptom, rather than the cause - that you shouldn't instantly whip out your big $20m legal stick to threaten someone. Using a PR firm might result in him just having some nice sounding…
That legal threat was not a good response. I think both sides messed up here. It seems like the ex-intern made an honest mistake especially given his age. This isn't exactly the same but Helen Keller messed up and…
There is a small (to your point, pretty small) risk that it could be used in place of repl.it or inspire other competitors. If this was done by an outsider, this would be totally fine and healthy for consumers. However,…
Rather than looking at it from the view of an employee or founder with power, I am attempting to view it through the lens of a good relationship between two people, with this being mainly defined through the golden rule…
As a thought experiment, if you ran a business, and all your ex-employees released a free version of the same product, would you be cool with this? Could you hang out with them, smile and say everything is totally cool?…
Would this be considered product thread hijacking? The 'compliment' could also be interpreted as a disguised subtle diss (7wk product vs 2yr one)..
I really enjoyed this!
There does seem to be strong market pressure to have no more than 2 major platforms to support, and understandably so due to the amount of work. Linux never became mainstream because of how poor the user experience was,…
I still haven't come across a convincing argument why Apple should be compelled by regulation to open up the iPhone and let anyone do anything they want with it, ie be a general purpose mobile computer. It sucks that…
If you sold ice cream on the street and needed to figure out how to become profitable, would you be so opposed to trying out selling at $5 one day and $7 the next? Or would this be too unfair to the people that paid $5?…
Guess this is a reminder why you shouldn't stick your dick in crazy. But imagine having to deal with someone like this after already getting married to them.
Most ICO money has already been spent in the bahamas. This is probably less of a joke than it appears :)
Atomic operations are made up of multiple instructions, but the atomic in the CS sense means that they need to be done together. This is a different concept from being made up of subatomic parts.
Yes, instantly recognized the title as from MacRumors. Although the sad face `:(` is missing
Valid point, I will try practicing it with the aim of accepting both variations.
Interesting, yeah it's probably hard for a famous person to connect with you on a real level if you're busy groveling and kissing the ground they walk on.
