This is interesting, I’ve been trying to figure out the best solution for handling blackout rules for sports apps. You pay full price but they specifically block anything in your market which is absolutely ridiculous. Yes, you can slap an a

I've been using ChatGPT to work on music theory and it's been pretty great, the responses are detailed and often have been correct and useful. (Don't ask it to tab anything. You'll get some rather hilarious results thoug

It's become rampant in travel. Booked a simple vacation to Vegas recently. Between flights with their multiple fees you mentioned, hotels that almost are always charging a per day resort fee, and then ticket sales to any event that has

100%. Tacking on to this, the last few places I've been the public facing site was usually managed by the marketing or design team, and often was used as a project to get them to touch _some_ code. Engineering rarely ever got involved

This would be an absolute dream, dealing with carriers has been hell since the beginning. I often do upgrade my phone, but it's been a huge hassle. Sometimes the promos don't work well and they basically wrap you into a contract a

Yes, if you're going to rebase, rebase your feature branch. Do not do it on the shared staging/dev etc.

I've been conducting interviews, we've experimented with adding some coding challenges and it's helped. Not live. But simple pass/fail write some methods to do a thing. This typically will filter out brand new folks. But

Ugh, Isshin the Glock Saint. Thorn in my side, as someone who loves the entire soulsborne series, beat most of them (not including DLCs) - he did break me. Sekiro is one of the tightest, most well designed games, it's super fluid, you

Honestly, I still did want to work there and they said they would reach out next time a position opened up but this never happened or got lost in the shuffle. I probably should have taken it upon myself to reach out to them and that's

Years ago I applied to Netlify and went through a pretty lengthy interview process and at the very end it was between me and one other guy. He got it. Now I'm really bummed I missed out. Hats off to him though. Really happy for Netlify

The timing of this post is too real. I'm so sorry to hear that. It's likely not any solace, but I've gone through and am currently going through something similar. I'm working as a software engineer and I love solving pr

I work on a large rails codebase as well but within a docker container doing emulation because ARM. How does RubyMine perform then? Last time I tried it felt sluggish.

There is a timing issue at play too, even if that's true. Say you wanted to migrate off elsewhere - it could take days for funds to settle between selling -> buying on another brokerage. By that time they possibly could have covered

Compounds lifts. Often people get confused about what program to use or how to optimize. If you're just getting started - anything will work. Make going to the gym a routine and the rest will follow. You can ignore the noise (much like

This is pretty neat. I’m currently building a house and was planning to throw up some art pieces. Could you download these and send them to Sam’s Club or something to get them printed or would/is there anything wrong with that?

For a lot of situations something like jekyll search [0] works wonders. It basically generates a json file (you can customize it quite a bit). For even decently sized blogs it's quite quick and doesn't require a page refresh. [0]

Nothing too special, I worked for a few large tech consulting companies early on in finance but did a bunch of a side development projects/freelance work as well. One of those ended up becoming a full-time gig so jumped ship and went f

Spot on. This is another situation of trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist and the writer does not understand at all . There are reasons why GAAP and IFRS exist. Accounting can make a lot of sense to a programmer, I've mo

Agreed. This is nice work. Recently dropped in Chart.js for an internal rails application to throw up some charts for users to get a better view of their data on their dashboard and they were blown away. A few simple bar charts and graphs c

I might be missing something. How does this compare with netlify which I've been using sometime as my 'heroku' for static sites? With that I'm also getting the ability to post-process things, use lambda functions, even g

Been working remote for a while (I still like popping into the office here and there). Agree with most of the other comments here. Treat it like you would if you were going into work. - Take a shower and put on nice clothes that you would w

Recently used Tailwind for a quick and dirty MVP. It came out looking very polished (way more so than the cookie-cutter bootstrap look) and cut down the development time quite a bit allowing more time to focus on the important stuff on the

I did the same after getting tired of NC's DNS interface. I host a few client sites with Netlify[1] anyways and moving over to their DNS (NS1) has been a breath of fresh air. It is free but they do have some paid options and the is U

How does this happen? I realize it's a small percentage, but this is one of the first tests you build. Even 1 photo (not to mention this is regarding videos) should never make it to another non-authenticated user. This is a massive mis

It's a real shame that there isn't legitimate competition in this space. And before you mention it, personal capital is not a replacement as it solves a different problem. One place to aggregate all financial accounts and give a c

This looks really neat. I wish I had the foresight years ago to join something like this or even do a straight cs track to a large company. My path has been less linear. Finished college with an accounting degree then worked at two fortune

How close are they to figuring out how to handle holding a battery charge in colder temperatures? A few owners around here I've spoken with have said they are experiencing nearly half the mileage this winter season and it's been a

I throw everything at devise. Open source, still being maintained actively, you run it on your own servers, and have had very minimal issues if any. Have had a hard time finding a better solution. Need payments? Slap on stripe.
