This gives me a warm feeling in my heart. That's great. To be struggling for so long as to finally post your pressure's online and wake up to them being alleviated the next.

With headlines like "32 year old developer launches feature after a grueling 8 weeks" or "Entire company extremely surprised to see Mike come in on a Monday after last Friday's firing round"

I would LOVE if you wrote up a few stories, however long! Do you think you could?

It's like Facebook. You never hear of the boring meals and activities. It's only at most 0.001% of a persons day, the crap they share. That's how I feel about HN. Theres a large percentage of quality talent that comes here, a

I used to be into tech and gadgets and all that neat stuff until I realized I spend more time setting up, customizing, and configuring it than time saved because of it. I've since just defaulted to books for entertainment, my ipod, and

Maybe they can invest in teaching their drivers how to drive and learn the city. I've had nothing but AWFUL experiences with Uber. Always having to coach suburban drivers around the city like lost fucking cattle. 1 star every single

I've lost 150+ lb so far. I've grown up poor. Supported myself my entire life. Dropped out of school and supported myself by working for myself. I've been against the grain my entire life. I have a need to lead. I realize few

Can't stand Uber anymore. I want to sit down in a car, say a direction and get there. I don't want to be leaning over, looking where we're going, and answering the guys questions ever two seconds. I automatically 1 star any r

I wouldn't panic. I'd realize my task and make it my mission to do it well.

You're obviously not a programmer.

What are the opposing viewpoints?

A bit off topic but I'm also from Toronto as well looking for developer friends. I'm around cityplace. m [at] eveo [dot] org if you want to grab a coffee and talk. I feel the same way about privacy. I lose my mind when I hear &quo

Employment probation. We fired a few people right off the bat within 3 months because they very clearly bullshitted us. One guy fucking used notepad to code. I'm not joking.

Any company that asks me a series of mundane questions in a conference room is not who I want to work for. It implies senior management has automated the engineers out of the job and are left with a "template". I want a take home

Their business model runs exclusively on draining the accounts of people that forgot their wallet keys!

I thought I was a bad programmer until I saw this thread. How did this make it to prod?

How do you search HN with Google? My Google-fu is lacking.

We are more connected than ever, but instead of in clusters, we're fragments of small communities existing within each other, unaware of each other. If we can take a step back to before the negative/positive potential has taken ef

a) Yes it is, but when the never-endingness and unregulated internet is a thing, most people lack the self control to stop. b) Nearly everybody I know wastes their time. I can’t find a single person who doesn’t go crazy on the internet. Peo

As long as we have internet, we will be complacent. I believe the internet has fragmented our minds so far and wide that with it, nothing will ever get done. The internet is the worst invention of the 20th century. I wish the internet was r
