Ideally yes. This is doable with some languages but the issue with Javascript is that your dependency graph usually ends up containing 100+ packages.

Never happened yet, but this kind of nightmare is also one of the reasons I’m very reluctant to publish any open source code.

I always answer above what my rate really is, so if they try and negotiate it down I’m not left out of pocket because they’d just bring it down to the rate I’m actually on. If I offered my actual rate right away they’d try to negotiate tha

Hire a lawyer and go after the client directly, if you can actually find them. If they used a stolen card to pay there’s a high chance their entire profile is fake and they’re hiding behind a proxy.

Svbtle. A few dollars a month, and it’s like having your own Medium without the bullshit. Other alternatives like Ghost or Hugh are good but require a bit of install/maintenance work so they’re not for everyone.

I once tried to give Facebook another go and created an account again. It seems like my email was in the meantime leaked to some gambling spam list because 90% of my friend suggestions were fake profiles from around the world created purely

I’d say using less services only inconveniences you, where as at least quitting completely inconveniences Google as well because they have zero way to track you around.

The open source community is sadly lacking in UX and design in general (partly because of funding, but also stupid attitude) so maybe you could offer those services to projects that are in need? Look for big open-source apps that are lackin

Depends on how frequently you need to access those keys. If it's for long-term storage only then I would consider keeping the keys in a password manager on an online machine to be an unnecessary risk. Keep the key offline, possibly e

Write about it and let search engines do their thing. There's pretty much no success in advertising a package/library - not many people randomly browse for packages and even if they stumble upon yours they'd probably forget a

It does not. The SPA is so sluggish I’ve learned to just force a page refresh after clicking on anything because a full page load is actually faster than their bullshit SPA.

Not only is a lot of Javascript useless, but it actually degrades the user experience. The "new" Reddit completely kills my 12-inch MacBook when I load a page, and it still feels sluggish afterwards. That pile of garbage literally

This is indeed good enough; in fact there was a post recently about how demand for Ruby On Rails (a "boring", server-side MVC framework) is still going strong. Javascript, single page apps and React are all the hype, but outside o

That employee sparked potential controversy by bringing in gender & sexism into a thread that didn’t need it; and such a sensitive topic could lead to a huge fallout for the company. This entire argument should’ve ended with a “you are
