It's high, but not terribly high, imo. When it comes to professional development, this could be considered quite cheap. A freelancer who charges $100/hr can pay for this in 30 minutes, and if it gives more than 30 minutes of produ

I'm not too surprised in this outcome. It has nothing to do with Hillary being rich and famous and everything to do with her being a Presidential candidate, and the front-runner, to boot. Imagine this scenario: The FBI indicts Hillary.

My three pieces of advice to developers aren't specifically about code, but they will eventually lead to better code: First, slow down. Slow, slow, slow, slow down. Take the time to test and to write tests. Take the time to think about

Hi Aline! Great read, as always. I had a couple of thoughts while reading: 1) One of the things you mentioned was that men whose voices were modulated to sound like women tended to score better than women whose voices were modulated to soun

If you have a lot of files or a lot of lines that get changed, eventually it just cuts off and says "Diff is too large" and won't show me the remaining files, so I have to do the diff manually at the command line. It sucks pr

Paginate pull requests. For the love of all that is holy, paginate pull requests. It's probably the main thing that frustrates the hell out of me when doing code reviews. Argh.

My advice: don't quit. And don't stress too much about what you learned in undergrad or whatever. I learned a lot in undergrad and grad school -- very little of which translates to my day-to-day work. Don't worry about phone

For those of you who think $70 is too much for a text editor, consider how often you use Sublime Text. I personally use it every day, 5+ hours a day, 25+ hours a week. In just two weeks it's down to $1/hour. In one month it's

Gonna echo what everyone else has said. My addition as a hiring manager is this: I'm far more interested in what you've learned recently than what you're an expert on. If your expertise directly contributes to my company&#x27

Well, bullying is a little more overt than what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the kind of person who is so good at persuasiveness that they convince you without you even realizing it. That's a totally different skillse

There are some people that are magical. You go into a meeting with your mind made up, and then 30 minutes later, you leave the meeting with a completely different mindset. And you don't know how they managed to convince you so successf

Gonna have to disagree with you. I think your view is a bit pessimistic. > Who gets to decide what level of shelter is "good enough for basic"? Who decides what quality of t-shirt is "good enough"? Who decides which l

I live in SF now and I'm definitely clearing 2x as much post-tax as I was in Atlanta. I've never lived in Phoenix, so I can't really speak to it other than hypothetically.

The author spends quite a bit of time comparing the expenses, but never really mentions the pay. It's a better deal if the pay stays the same . This kind of comparison happens a lot, but I personally think it's a little faulty. T

I'm not convinced that's true, but I also don't know enough to dispute it, so... ok. :)

Sure, the someone who makes the T-shirts is the someone who wants to earn money, as opposed to sitting "on basic." I'm not sure how you missed that part. It's in the 7th paragraph. The point being that it doesn't ta

There's a lot of skepticism about basic income, especially when it comes to how does it save money? The top comment as of this writing is questioning it: > But riddle me this: what do you do when someone on BI has a financial emerge

I think you may be making a faulty assumption that Bootcamp means the candidate didn't go to college. Many, many bootcamp grads DID go to college... just not for CS.

I wish PostgreSQL had better GUIs. There are quite a few of them, but none of them compare to Sequel Pro for MySQL. It's frustrating.

I use GitX as well, and I love it. I've used a couple of others, but GitX is just minimal and gets the job done easily.

IIRC, porn companies usually have an LLC behind them that has a more normal name. If possible, use that. When it comes to descriptions, focus on the technical nature of the job, rather than the content. For example, I used to work for a rea

I despise recruiters with the fiery passion of a thousand suns, so I try to avoid them as much as possible. That leaves me (and you) with a few viable options: 1) Use a matching service like interviewing.io or TripleByte to get connected di

If all the PHP nay-sayers used Laravel, the public opinion toward PHP would shift dramatically to be more favorable. It's a modern framework that makes using PHP a true joy, as opposed to the wrangling we had with PHP pre-5.4. It prett

You need to install Composer, the PHP package manager, and then install it, but there aren't a whole lot of OS dependencies there. You don't have to install node, then npm, then... ad nauseum. You just drop a composer binary on th

I deal with a lot of custom feeds, so not a lot of standard formats. I'll take a look at goxpp! Thank you!

This is pretty rad. Is there a way to customize this for non-RSS feeds, or is this pretty much tailored for RSS/Atom feeds?

What would happen if an employer in Massachusetts offered me a job and asked me to sign a non-compete clause, and I said I wouldn't take the job if I had to sign a non-compete? Do you think they would back down? Or do you think they wo
