"End to end encrypted" on proprietary code base from META of all companies, with no ability to publicly audit? I am to this day baffled by gullibility of people believing that WhatsApp is E2E encrypted.

I believe the parent was imploring GP to use stronger words more accurately depicting the aforementioned React App developer, such as "braindead" or similar.

Oh, but it absolutely is not! You are most probably experiencing Stockholm syndrome towards iOS development experience, given lack of alternatives. At least pro-console users had some sort of argument for their setups. You cannot comprehend

iOS has one of the most pathetic development toolings in existence. Your statement truly shows how unaware you are of actually good toolings and solutions for software development, and, frankly, you should not say a single word more about s

Huh, I had a similar experience during my adolescent years, yet right after high school I have had zero troubles with the sleep. Starting from the age of 13 and till 18 I would go to bed at 1-2 AM, occasionally at 3-4 only to wake up at 7-

That post literally expresses amazement about "basic refactoring ability". It would blow author's mind of what a proper IDE can do, if they get a chance to use it.

No, not Google or other FAANMG company. That's the problem with quick Google searches and not living and exploring job market in the given country. I agree that there are truly a lot of developer jobs in NL paying in 40-70k range. Howe

All of Europe seems to be quite a stretch. I am earning north of 100k euro as IC in the Netherlands, most of my peers are doing the same here. I also know quite a few people in Ireland, Germany and Sweden doing better than me.

Dude (or dudess or whatever), Fed literally has positions in all sorts of stocks, including bankrupt HTZ. How is that not "buying the stock market"?

I believe the easiest explanation here is that the group was heavily invested in the stock under question.

From my perspective, the root cause of this problem lies in lack of one common measure for code quality, correctness and usability or even programming in itself. Say, there are two approaches for a problem - how do we decide which one we go

Perhaps you should speak only for yourself and not others? I don't have a car and hopefully never will. I never used an Uber or any similar service. I used taxi maybe 2 or 3 times in the past few years. It is extremely easy to live wit

Trivial stuff takes what, an hour, a week, a month at maximum to do? So you are trading the opportunity to be financially independent for the rest of your life for what, your free time on a span of one month? Yeah, that does sound reasonabl

I wonder if you have worked as an accountant? Or at least took some intro courses in the area? Or at a bare minimum took a look at common corporate financial statements? This is such a typical dismissive reaction by a person who has ZERO in

I did not consider myself introvert until the pandemic. I have not had real human contact in more than 2 months, other than some audio-only standups and stuff + I live completely alone. I feel not that different compared to when I interacte

I do dislike dynamically typed languages a bit for building large systems, where are plenty of alternatives available. However, I still reach out to Python and Bash and Perl for some one-off tasks or gluing scripts and I do appreciate the b

ALL of the listed above libraries are complete garbage, impossible to use productively among several developers. I worked in a company that had huge Perl codebase, which made extensive use of the Moose library. After trying to make sense of

Honestly, the whole thing is a total disaster. Yet another game driven by bottom line profit and trying to save costs on virtually everything related to development. Hopefully users' actions - boycotts, refunds and review-bombs - will

Every single person writing a comment on Hacker News should have to memorize this rule: Never use code formatting for text, as it makes it unreadable on the mobile devices. For my own (and others') convenience, here is unformatted ru
