Wolt has been absolutely great. They suddenly appeared here in Northen Europe with superior technology(app, website, UI, UX, everything) than the otherwise dominating Just-Eat and since then I have barely used anyone else. Since then, Just-

Ad hominem? It seems pretty relevant to me that the author mostly writes snarky articles which directly contradict the moral of this story. For the record, I totally agree with the moral of the story. But we can't just blindly ignore c

The moral of this post really falls flat coming from this author, most of whose posts are snarky, passive-aggressive rants where she rants about someone's alleged incompetence or something similar.

Speaking of insane defaults: I've been working with azure for my latest project at work, using azure app services, which allow you to create "deployment slots" for different deployments(dev, staging, prod or just other custom

I literally did this just yesterdayy, in production, too. Thankfully it was a greenfield deployment and the customers weren't really using the system yet. I went in there to adjust some data so that one of our dev users could re-publis

Oh wow, yet another pseudo-intellectual, navel-gazing snooze fest in 8pt and 90% white space. I have been biting my nails waiting since the last one.

Netflix's player has been awful for years now. It's soooo heavily modified web UX that it just takes me back to the days of websites being built entirely in flash. I wish we just had a normal player and a normal website and not th

I think this happens all the time. I very rarely post comments on youtube, but when I do, I often want to go back to see if I've gotten any replies. Anyone else who's tried doing this has figured out that youtube makes it incredib

Is this what HN has come to? Upvoting low effort posts with cookie cutter programming templates? This is the kind of garbage that constantly gets posted to all programming subreddits to everyone's dismay, and usually gets downvoted to

Wow, that is pretty awful. I'm a pretty big fan of strong, static type systems and FP in general, and I have been writing typescript professionally for a few years now. I decided a long time ago that trying to write Haskell in TS just

Ugh, is it that time again? You can't just magically disappear the complexity that is inherent to building actual applications. Synchronizing data based on unique IDs isn't special. At best this is an interesting prototyping tool

Wow, that post is really something. Yeah, we've probably all felt frustrated at work due to managers, coworkers, bureaucracy or something else, and sometimes we want to vent. You don't do that in the company slack, though. That&#x

In my view, there are two possibilities: 1) The data is fabricated and some of the researchers were in on it. 2) The data is fabricated, and the researchers are extremely sloppy, irresponsible and should be ashamed of their poor work ethic.

Is no one else put off by the tone of this article? The author comes off like some kind of bitter incel who has already decided that all women are bitter, miserable hags that snicker at "nerds". Extremely cringe and a very poor wa

No, I think the poor should have as many choices as everyone else. My "true beliefs" are that this company isn't some kind of altruistic attempt at "helping the poor" - this is just a way for this company to capital

Yes, you're absolutely right. If we set up a perfect example to support your arguments, and we ignore any possible negative aspects, then we can conclude that this is a purely beneficial arrangement. Look, I'm not arguing that it

You're neglecting the fact that they will also have expenses the month after, and the month after that. Tapping into their income faster just means that this month's bill gets covered by their salary, but next month's bill go

People who are not making enough money to make ends meet -- and thus end up with overdraft fees or having to make use of things like instant loans or credit cards -- don't need to get paid faster . They need to get paid more . Whethe

I'm sorry, but this is wrong. See alexis king's takes(which could be taken right out of my mouth, just more eloquent): https://lexi-lambda.github.io/blog/2020/01/19/no-dynamic-typ... The gist i

My theory is that these career evangelists have spent too much of their careers doing just that: evangelizing. They haven't actually been writing code or building software. They've just been telling everyone how they think they sh

Vue is hands down the worst frontend framework I've had the displeasure of working with. The authors are trying to hard to write something "different" that in the end they've only managed to create a bunch of incidental

I live in Denmark. The limit for the top tax bracket here is about $86k, after which you pay 15% of the difference between your salary and the top tax bracket limit. The average salary for a software developer in Denmark is around $80k, but

I think you misunderstood what I meant by "comfortable" here. I didn't mean to suggest that $130k is super normal - it's about the ceiling at my company - but $130k would make for very comfortable living. I live in Denma

The average salary for a software developer in Denmark is probably around $80k, and at my company the "ceiling" is about $130k. On $80k you live very comfortably.

I don't know where you live, but where I live, most software engineers are easily in the top 10% of income. Sure, you can chase $200k FAANG jobs in SV and go through all the misery that is associated with that, and then spend 50% on ho

Would that be content like saying you support white supremacy? Because that's what he does in the video attached to the article and TikTok is totally fine with that. The phrase "black people" is a no go, though. Next time, yo

Thank you! I've never understood this meme about copy-pasting. I honestly rarely end up using SO and when I do, I almost never copy paste from there. It's not because it's some kind of weird principle I have - I will copy pas

This is an extremely cringey, gatekeepy reply. It's just missing a "it's nothing personal, kiddo". Good on you if you prefer writing everything from scratch. Some of us have shit to do and goals to meet and we'd rat

Is this really a good fit for this site? What does TDF have to do with technology, or this article? There is nothing here that has anything to do with anything that hacker news is about.
