Its all a matter of line drawing, and where you draw that line is also an opinion. I do agree with you that Anti-Vaxxers are actively causing harm to the world, because i understand what science and facts are. What about Flat Earthers? Agai

Depends on how you measure it, if you gave me a programming test that measured how much i knew and if i knew the intricacies of a language and memorised the manual, while also testing me on computer science questions that only get talked ab

True, i also build but its a smaller part of my job since as i have employees etc that do the labour work. But the biggest part of my job is to listen to a problem and come up with a solution, more often than not, my company also delivers t

Very true sentiment in this article. Also a corollary to this would be to deliver based on the value you provide the client, not the time it takes you to complete the problem. I've written about this before on HN: https://ne

I'm a contractor, so i work in a lot of different companies and get to experience a lot of different ways of working. I am by far the most relaxed and productive in the companies that are closest to ROWE (Results Only Work Environment)

Thanks! This is the kind of thing i was interested to find out about.

Yes i mean exactly that, but implementing as much of the jQuery library as possible, or certainly the most used parts. Was just a thought excercise.

by TamDenholm 8y ago
Just curious, does there exist a library that uses jquery syntax but with modern vanilla JS as the guts? i'm sure someone must have done this but i dont know about it. I'm interested to know if you could just replace the jquery cd

Ideally, go and interview at other companies, get an idea of the market, you may even unintentionally find something you're interested in.

If you're being recorded for it to go on youtube, and you're doing a Q&A at the end, please repeat any questions that are asked for the benefit of the mic and those watching on youtube. Thanks

I'm a contractor but have my own independent business too so i'm mostly a remote worker. I live just under an hour from the capital city (Edinburgh). You could definitely say i live in the country however, i live in the biggest to

Surely someone will come up with a device that can mask your face from cameras without literally putting a mask on. I dont know what that would be or if that would be made illegal or not, because surely they couldnt make a literal halloween

Being a contractor in the UK for the last 13 years i quickly learned when i first started that any recruiter that asks for references before they've even sent the CV to the client is a lying cheating scumbag and will get told outright

Sometimes the most immoral things are the most interesting, doesnt mean you have to actually follow through, but learning about it is generally very interesting. Why are Blackhat and Defcon conferences so popular? Because its super interest

Senior developer salaries in my local area (Edinburgh, Scotland, UK) are £30k-£40k which is about $42k - $56k USD. On a £40k salary you pay roughly £9,500 in tax. Ive no idea what the tax rate is in America but the difference in salaries be

I dont think the line is that blurry personally, we get asked permission if we want to send usage data back to Mozilla to help them, i allow that, because i'm asked and informed about whats happening. I dont see why the same prinipal c

They kinda missed the point that people dont like when companies install things on their devices without permission. If its part of the shield program how about we provide more transparency on that? Like how to opt-in/opt-out, what exa

Like anything, things like this can have the potential to be the first step is a very slippery slope that erodes what makes the internet great. The one positive i can see about this is that it might make the general public more aware of wha

Can someone explain what RSU's are? I'm assuming its something specific to being American and since i'm not i'm afraid i'm not familiar with the term. Thanks

An interesting "game", i failed but i knew it was rigged from the start, kind of like uber i guess, which i'm sure is the point they're trying to make.

Very interesting but they didnt actually say how they made the non-weldable metal, weldable. Would be interested to know what it is they actually did.
