Oh, so your suggestion is to just wait it out and good things will come?

Yep - yet another half-baked project that someone is using for internet points. I'm really getting sick of people re-inventing the wheel poorly. The number of available tools is really getting out of hand and I wish projects like this

I worked at at place with a couple blind computer programmer types. I never talked to them to ask them how they did it, but they did it somehow, so I'm sure you can too. I wish you the best.

Scraping and saving resumes is a common tactic. I know recruiters from Companies You've Heard Of and even their big, well known company scrapes daily. As for selling the information later, that's a different issue (and one that I

I love how Ask HN has turned into a place to take surveys.

So far: 51 comments and so far zero comments about the technical aspects of this article - only political bickering. Yet another thinly veiled political story that somehow make it to the front page because it has the word "coders&quo

"When used as a failure detector, timeouts are just a guess that something is wrong." I send a packet over the network. I configured the timeout to be 10 seconds. 10 seconds passes. Is the packet truly lost? Or, maybe the pack

Ehh I wouldn't worry about it too much. The whole idea behind these skinny distros is there are few if any packages. Distros can also consider using something like rpm-ostree[1] for making skinny, RPM-based immutable file systems whe

Red Hat's Project Atomic "installer ISO" is ~630mb and the uncompressed qcow2 is >900mb. I was impressed with Atomic's size, but seeing how much smaller Alpine is, I can't help but wonder what all the additional

That makes me think of the amount of satisfaction one will receive pushing MIT's autofix-it button as opposed to those seconds or minutes when you've caught the fucker and go in for the final fix. Those moments of updating the fil

Be a tech grunt if you want to be a tech grunt. I've done it for years because it's much funner than management or architecture. Give your company the first shot at making you happy by asking them to let you step down and back in

Off-topic and not appropriate for HN. If you want to circle jerk about how terrible the police can be, do it somewhere else - this isn't the place. Flagged.

How does someone sniff out companies like this during an interview or pre-screen?

by anon987 11y ago
Yep, I think most of these post-mortems from any company are pointless from a technical perspective. It's 4 paragraphs that boils down to "someone did something wrong and we'll make sure it doesn't happen" with zer

I had to put this one down but I plan to pick it up later. His ideas can be super dense at times and it makes fun reading feel like work. It definitely doesn't "cool down" my brain at the end of the day. /r/prints

Sure, but expand out and try stuff like "chef cookbook" and "chef knife" or try to find Chef jobs on Indeed.

Yep, VirtualBox + CentOS and go nuts. Don't waste your money buying a separate computer, and don't waste your time trying to dual boot or removing Windows and using Linux full time.

Google "free microsoft ebooks" (no quotes) and you will see a bunch of links for official Microsoft sites - not pirated ones. Several years ago Microsoft started giving them away free to, I assume, encourage platform adoption. Di

Consider working directly with the FCC to catch them. It would take time, and it might be a pain, but that sounds like a great "honeypot" for analysis.

Oh I understand that. To be more precise: Let's say I will be working on a team of 5 people. They send the manager and the smartest guy and things look great, but how do I gauge the skill level of the people who aren't there al
