Damn, that's one bold statement with pretty much no proof that is the case. Activision / Blizzard obviously realizes that fortnite is doing well, and could ramp up development on some new future competitor, why would fortnite be a

You're subject to the "same political bullshit" because you choose to be. You don't have to partake in it, but you do. You can choose not to, you can choose to try to bring the company around you to greener pastures - bu

That isn't the case here, I think you're conflating the two. Building cool / cool stuff doesn't clash with meeting deadlines, knowing how to do both / when / how to compromise is vastly more useful than being e

This guy right here is one of the few comments in this thread that "get it". OP seems genuinely interested in the success of the team, where as who he's talking about, seemingly at least, is interested in his own success - th

Google does to some degree, however, from what I know (and Googlers feel free to jump in) it's non trivial to work for the Cloud team in sunnyvale or wherever but actually work from the Pittsburgh office. Because you can't do this

They don't care, their employees can / will be able to afford the cost of living, and others will flock from the areas around to work low-paying jobs to support them. I'm leaving the area because I don't want to be force

Reddit and hn are quite different in the sense that HN actively (allegedly) attempts to fight against clickbait / mislabeled titles where resdit (in general) leaves that up to the subreddits to manage which (in general) do nothing.

I love parcel, I seem to personally have constant issues with my typescript react project related to breakpoints just completely not working, or when being triggered, mapping to completely other files. I imagine it's a sourcemap issue

I'll take a company trying to be cognizant of such things, and over adjusting, over not at all. I think it's great that Circle is trying to do their part in being as inclusive-minded as the can be from the research they've co

Yea, since you know how to make the perfect products, perhaps you should just take githubs money. Edit: To clarify, looking back it's simple to just make such assumptions. But many popular sites have existed off of this model which git

Github is totally within their right to hold this close to their vest for whatever reason, I don't see the big deal with it. Where does the line get drawn the OP asks? I'm unsure, but I believe in Github to make a smart call there
