I dislike this greatly, and it doesn't seem like a sustainable path - if the market crashes, and his/her skills don't match the compensation level, then it will backfire greatly & catch up to him/her. I was able to b

I have had performance issues using Ionic myself, and I have been intensely dissatisfied with Cordova & its ecosystem. In addition, I have had some pain with Ionic when trying to implement special behavior, mainly due to how the interna

If you're running inconsistently, then it's no surprise why then. I've lifted and run at various times in my life, and I found running a lot more rewarding, especially with all of the bad advice out there that surrounds lifti

In practice, companies do not tend to go after these people since there is the risk of an uproar and it does no harm to the company typically. In addition, the risk of an expensive lawsuit is usually not worthwhile on the companies' en

That is also a copyright violation.

Not quite - looking forward to when more people start exploring Angular 2 and seeing the things done wrong in React in comparison, it is looking like a juggernaut of a library in many aspects. React is the best relatively stable library&#x2

As with any interview, YMMV. My own experience was pretty negative - I got asked a question where one pretty much has had to have studied & memorized the approach to solve the question, with no live feedback or direction but mostly sile

A bit offtopic, but where did that article get their chart with house odds from? Generally, Blackjack has been said to have better odds, usually with roughly a 1% house advantage and supposedly the closest to 50% odds there is.

Where's your proof that is simply not true? Every talk where people have done actual benchmarks with has shown otherwise. I have also discussed benchmarking techniques with the main Angular developer in charge of them, as I noticed som

All the benchmarks seem to indicate that Angular 2 is vastly faster than the other frameworks - the Angular team has achieved O(1) change detection, which large DOM node benchmarks are remarkably consistent with in terms of Angular 2's

I'd think the Google/Facebook/Netflix/etc. numbers is the market salary - it is somewhat known in the Valley that Netflix pays its engineers around $375k, mostly cash, for example. What goes unsaid though is that there&#

GraphQL requires backend infrastructure to use, which takes time usually to plug into the planning pipeline.

Not that smooth if you saw the comments on HN last week - teams lost months of productivity keeping up with the rewrites in Ember, even with no immediate breaking changes.

I once worked for a startup that did this - pretty much fired a lot of the competent engineers, or they quit. A lot of engineers complained about the ungodly hours many had to put in for unrealistic deadlines that were pushed down by sales.

To be fair, howterrible's tone is arguably far worse - he makes accusations that he must want [insert negative extreme not backed by evidence], and goes more in depth as with trying to connect silverstorm with malformed reasoning. At t

The Angular team is currently exploring options to ease the upgrade path - the current plan last I saw is to create an engine that runs angular 2 components in angular 1 and vice versa for seamless interop, so upgrading can be more incremen

And yet a lot of Bay Area startups (some even YC companies that popup here) think they can get away with offering top notch developers in their field $130k & poor equity. The outrageousness cuts both ways.

Or for a bigger offender, I noticed a couple of days ago that Rally ( https://www.rallydev.com/ ) loaded over 5 MB of JavaScript from 3 scripts...being loaded 3+ times each (each one is over 600 KB)! Each script seemed to con

Very true - it is part of the bane of take home assignments. Even for someone who can code extremely fast, a lot of the exams aren't realistic with time, and then they are compared with those done by people who put in multiples of the

But when comparing the difference, and considering a code project for an interview has a tendency to be even more stressful, which would a person rather spend their time on? It certainly is not the code project - I have heard & experien

$500 is too low - good developers will often charge $200+/hour freelancing, there is little incentive for them to deal with a take home test for that price with all of the time & stress that come with take home tests. A choice is b

Maybe a little different, but having a lot of physical desk space is still very important IMO. It feels great to have lots of desk space, it helps carve out more privacy since there are less possible closer places other people's desks

I feel the opposite - I don't understand why a modal should have a route most of the time. It seems clunky and usually should not be a part of browser history.

Half of the time, the build system of companies I join is unnecessarily complicated. I often end up simplifying things once I get a handle for how it works, creating nice one command deploys or workflows that don't require chaining mul

I'd say there is no way it peaked in 83 considering how vast it has become since then. 2004 is probably the high point for my personal favorite genre, power metal, for example (big releases from Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, Kamelot, Angr
