You may have already discerned, but I don't give two shit's about the style of my comments on this site. The Internet is a bathroom stall, and comments are the graffiti. Taking them as seriously as you do is ridiculous.

I've never had a harder time explaining something this impressive to my gf.

90k for an Oklahoman is a bit overpriced if you ask me ;-)

Scare quotes belong around 'miss' not 'gifts'.

Just to add a counter-point to the readily expressed opinion here on HN that the web is terrible and we should all go back to programming Coltran; the only place for desktop apps is testing new APIs for new technologies which the Web can ad

> It is easy to imagine something much better, where your code runs on a nice tidy runtime native to the OS Yeah, cause that's how every native platform has been since the begining. Yet the web still needed to be invented. Why?

Serve videos as videos. Photo data compresses better with Jpeg. But gifs are still a better option for animated illustrated graphics.

No mention of Twitter, Facebook or Instagram? It seems obvious to me that that is where the blogs went. People don't create content so that people they don't know have something to do in their spare time, they do it for the recogn

I got turned down at a job interview in 2014 because I couldn't code coffeescript. The guy interviewing me went on-and-on about how cool it was. It was exactly like how Typescript is today.

TypeScript just moves all errors from runtime to compiletime, even the ones nobody would ever realistically encounter. The user's browser is the only typechecker that matters, and that's why end-to-end tests are more important tha

Lol "proper". Type nerds!

The devs that did it probably quit immediately after and started a consulting company where they advised all their clients on how to convert to coffeescript too

I eagerly await the Typescript to SpoonScript (what have) migration of 2027.

I don't see how quitting helps the workers he claims to care about. Many of them would probably love to have the amount of influence that a VP has. Seems disingenuous to claim that as a reason for quitting.

I'm not talking about management, I'm talking about leadership. Do you have a tech lead on your team? If not how do technical decisions get made? Is it democratic (everyone votes) or more meritocratic (everyone argues their opinio

In REST you return all the data because it's better to have some geek reading about which girls rejected him than to have to create a ticket with the backend team to get them to add it later #tea

I did this on OkCupid just by answering common questions in the most common way. But more dates isn't really the point, at least not for me. So I weighted the questions in the way they mattered to me and I met my current gf. Cheaters o

It's funny how this got flagged. Breeders are so sensitive about their god-given right to breed.

I've always readily admitted when I don't know something. Might be that I was raised in Arkansas, where ignorance is a little more acceptable. It's usually a great benefit for me, for the same reasons the article describes. H

So can they still do traditional deterministic(?) calculations? Or would that be somewhat akin to using machine learning to do your taxes; possible but just overkill? I've often heard it said that Quantum Computers can crack cryptograp
