Sorry. I can admit I was wrong. I haven't seen ellipses used to begin a sentence that asks a question in a way that wasn't flippantly dismissive before. Couple that with a throwaway account and I jumped to conclusions.…
I lived in a couple third world countries where grown adults asked if we had cats in the United States. Should I look down on them for not knowing something about my culture? Or do we have different concerns in our…
This is kind of a minor reason to leave a smug comment. By what age should a person give deep thought into shows of romantic affection in cultures they've previously not considered?
Who is this comment directed to? The author of the article, or their customers?
I don't really get the impression that she is looking down on it, just that she was ready to move on. “it was harder and harder to come up with ideas. I was always concerned that it was eventually going to be like…
I know other people have already echoed your comment, but I feel the same. About a month ago I switched from chrome and google search to firefox and ddg. After about 2 days I completely forgot I was using ddg. It just…
My little brother was always better at Math than me. Whenever he tried to show me how to do something it was different than how our teachers showed us. He was really good at figuring out a method that made more sense…
I can have this major feature done for you, but I'm not sure if it can be done in 2 months, so I say 3 to be conservative. OR I can have many small sub-features that relate to this major feature done in 2 months, but I…
I didn't read this as a slack good / slack bad article at all. At my current job I was asked to join a client's slack group (added without my consent) and it was a nightmare. The problems have nothing to do with…
My wife and I did that for 2 years. It works, but like everything, there are trade offs. It's great that you know your child is being raised by you and your partner. You aren't offloading the child to a babysitter and…
Not from my experience. The kids on my block played all summer long on bikes, with hoses, and at the nearby park. I'm guessing from 5 or 6 different houses on the street, all different ages. Just kids being summer kids.…
I mean, you could just as easily use a real reference for what it would cost. You can either pay mailchimp, or you can pay your senior developer to set it up for $80/hr.
We had a "discussion" on which formatter/linter to use for a different language. There were 2 choices and I bet we spend 300 man hours on nonsense. Everyone had to have their say. You can decide TO use a linter, but…

There are a lot of people talking in this thread about the dangers of cooking in a kitchen that make it sound like a cheesy infomercial... "Scalding your loved ones? Tired of shutting the oven door on your cat? Isn't…
Of course not. I don't think his numbers are super accurate in his comment, but of course he isn't proposing a solution to the housing crisis, he's offering advice to anyone thinking of moving to SF. I offer similar…
I completely comprehend the bad things the platforms introduce, but pre-social media it was just really inconvenient to stay in touch with people way out of your area. Blogs were alright for it, but not great for 2 way…
This seems to fit my experience interviewing/hiring candidates over the last few years. There's a certain type of "Bootcamp grad" that seems to fit well with my teams. Those people who got a degree and then found that…
I did a fair chunk of interviews when I was just a dev. I loved it, and I took it very seriously in terms of vetting programming skill and practices. I also felt good offloading that burden from a good manager. It was…
I took a fun cooking class in college that was targeted at home cooking. We did double blind taste tests on nearly every type of food we could think of. It's still amazing to me how infrequently the brand name won in…
I used to work for a startup that competed in this space. The amount of articles, awards, and HN posts that our marketing team fabricated was unreal. We won awards we didn't deserve because the Awards company's owner…
Reminds me of this talk from Vincent Woo (creator of Coderpad) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8UwcyYT3z0 Really made me rethink my priorities and has had me change the kinds of things I do.
My wife and I have missed the Trans-Siberian Orchestra every year for 10 years, but we REALLY want to go. It's almost a running joke at this point. This year I set about a dozen alerts that'll start going off at the end…
I ride a motorcycle, but you and I "balance our books" very differently.
I've been thinking about a similar question for 4 or 5 years. Should you be satisfied with being comfortable? If it's important for you to leave a legacy related to your hobbies or career field, then probably not. You…
