The benchmark has some old versions of Angular (2) and the legacy AngularJS (1.x) - how do the benchmarks look with a more recent version (v7)?

Not to mention housing is cheaper in the South Bay, and the South Bay tech companies generally pay significantly better than the SF ones.

One thing I have seen some managers do at my company is use their coding skills to help streamline their work, i.e. create scripts to help pull data so they can create charts or query for data to form some analytics to help inform decision

Totally agreed - the problem is when integration tests are used in lieu of what unit tests are for, which has been an increasing trend in the frontend web world I’ve seen, in large part because of UI frameworks not providing the tools to do

My experience has been very much the opposite - integration tests are often very brittle, and finding the root cause is often almost a fools errand since stack traces are often no good for figuring out what went wrong, at least for web UI.

This isn't particularly surprising to anyone who has been online for a while - sometimes you'd see gruesome stuff even on forums, and then you also had the culture on sites like 4chan. Moderation isn't something that one coul

Can't speak for Vue, but Angular has its own module system in addition to ES imports, which does give a gain when it comes to testing. There is one benefit to Angular's templates that is pretty nice due to its use of TypeScript -

What the heck would you be spending $ on to be living with a non-significant other roommate necessarily at $300k? This is extraordinary hyperbole that pretty much ignores what it’s really like in the Bay Area - many people making $100k or e

It is more than enough to buy - not sure what you're expectations are around buying here. Sure, it maybe possible to buy instantly in Austin, to my understanding in not as great neighborhoods if you want it cheaper, as I hear house pri

In that case, taxes and rent only would account for about a $50k difference at those numbers - not enough to make up the gap between Austin and SF if we're talking $200k and $300k, and I'd imagine $200k isn't as easy to hit i

Devs beware, hooks are not quite there yet it turns out. You get warnings in jest about needing to use act from react-test-renderer if you use async code to trigger state updates - the solution being recommended currently is mock every prom

Yep, Google is by far the company with the worst customer support I've ever seen - they sucked up $500 without telling me and then when I found out, they hid behind a smoke screen as to why they couldn't refund it. I also have ano

I don't think I'm going to tip through Doordash anymore. It's robbery that they misled users by saying the tips go 100% to the driver and it turns out this is not the case.

It's on macOS as well. These are basically the main downside though - I switched to Apple News after Google started inserting YouTube videos in Google News, and haven't looked back. AMP also broke the browser back button as well,

I can't speak for everyone, but the reusability with custom hooks looks really nice and better readability than using say HOCs.

Just to correct this a bit, while this is certainly true of AngularJS, this is certainly not true of Angular. Angular since v2 has taken a reactive approach throughout, and even the two-way data bing is just syntactic sugar for an evented p

Then we'll just be paying it out of pocket.

But wouldn't that mean you're lagging trends?

My understanding is this is true for their frontend group, not fullstack.

I only visit reddit when friends link off to it - I rather not be giving reddit any traffic at all if I could help it, so downloading an app just doesn't make sense for me.

Just a counterpoint, but we've had a lot of pain with Ember, especially Ember Data, with only senior developers working on an app - figuring out the right areas to modify to implement a feature/bug fix was unnecessarily difficult,

Problem is, you could potentially encroach on a big company's interests without knowing so, i.e. they're working in [insert space] in secret, or create an ethical issue for the company. Truth is, excepting maybe Netflix, the rest

There's a huge difference between Apple's built in apps and the third party apps doing who knows what background processing/data mining on phone usage. The effects on performance such as battery life is very noticeable.

While I like using FB, this is type of behavior by Android OEMs that largely drove me to the iPhone. The main reason I rooted my phone prior was to get rid of crappy apps I don't use from being on my screen. Around 4-5 years ago, Andro

Sometimes you end up freezing anyway - I remember one time on a field op we settled down for the night, and there was freezing rain out. We put a tarp in the dark over where we slept, and got greeted a few hours later with a flood of rain o

Not the M16, but the IAR (Infantry Automatic Rifle) - that gun has a tight spread for an automatic rifle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M27_Infantry_Automatic_Rifle . I got to use it as my fire team's machine gunn

It's probably even worse than you think - it's not just about carrying a lot of weight. You're expected to carry it and still move pretty quickly on humps. In infantry in the USMC, going at 1-2 miles an hour with all this gea
