- elwell 13y agoHackerRank looks interesting. I see there are some Functional Programming challenges [0]. [0] - https://www.hackerrank.com/categories/fp/intro https://www.hackerrank.com/categories/fp/intro
- overload119 13y agoWow, HackerRank is amazing! Can't believe I've just heard of this -- I literally was going to build the same idea (with the same name) at a hackathon. I just wish they had more challenges in Javascript/Ruby. In general I think the list is really great.
- rvivek 13y agoFounder here - we are constantly working on adding more. Thanks for the comment :)
- elwell 13y agoWould like to see Cmd/Ctrl + Enter to compile/run tests when focused on editor. (or am I missing a similar keyboard combination. Another problem was that I could not easily click a "Next" button to go the next challenge in a group. I would like to move onto the next functional programming question but I have to go back to the categories screen.
- mcdowall 13y agoI hadn't heard of Vayable before but will definitely consider some of the tours I've discovered for the month in Brazil at the World Cup now.
- MyNameIsMK 13y agoDon't forget to self-promote and always toot your own horn. wink wink
- jjoe 13y agoI'm sure many are cringing at how this well-intentioned message was delivered. But we're all willing to turn a blind eye in favor of scouring any positive tidbit from it.
- donretag 13y agoGreat, the last thing I want to see as I sit here burnt out at work are pointers to getting a new job. :)

- frenchman_in_ny 13y agoInteresting - I didn't know about FutureAdvisor, which seems like a great tool. I have one nit with it -- I just had it analyze my portfolio; I find it odd that FA recommends no changes to an employer sponsored retirement plan due to "significant amount of unrecognized holdings", while it knows what options are available within the plan (ie, it doesn't suggest rebalancing the plan)
- jonxu 13y agoCo-founder here, thanks for trying out FutureAdvisor. We may not have all the plan option info available within the plan. If you have the email you signed up with, we can take a look the specific plan. Feel free to ping us directly at help@futureadvisor.com and we'll make sure to investigate immediately.
