As for most things blockchain and *coin, there is most likely fraud lingering around somewhere.

The person specifically mentions longevity and yet you mention a myriad of third-party tools to depend on.

As with most southern European countries, the answer is corruption.

You're not a very nice person are you? In a world where you sell products to customers, customers are who you should design for. Customers are who you should listen to. If your customers are making it clear as day to you that your app

Also a sweaty skin person here and can confirm, never liked TouchID because of how little it worked for me and was very happy when FaceID came out.

I think it might make sense to also ask "how long an average developer stays at the company?". This reveals quite a bit; most developers usually leave because there's a better offer on the table, so if developers don't s

Ah yes, I keep forgetting that HN folk are American-centric and often either do not know or forget that the vast majority of developers do not actually live there, or work for FAANG. Outside of USA, a little digging I did via Glassdoor: Bue

The "learn Go" part always puzzles me. In a city of 15 million (Buenos Aires), I can find about ~3 jobs for Go, but ~800 for Java. Clearly Go isn't going to be paying anyones bills anytime soon. At least not in this part of t

I really wouldn't blindly recommend Psilocybin to people. I got the idea of trying to fix my health anxiety with it from HN about a year ago. Took half a dose, had a pretty good time for around 2 hours and then the worst panic-attack m

In Estonia, my home country, public opinion of doctors in general are pretty bad. They only want to subscribe you pills and never actually treat you and so those with money go towards private clinics to fix their issues. I have anxiety diso

I feel like Gitlab is going in a direction of AWS, except that instead of having separate products it just bundles everything in one. One massive bloatware that's scary to touch, no idea where features begin or end, or what is it even

We were told that it's hard to find Clojure engineers, but everyone including your grandmother knows JS/TS, but I think what they really meant by that is that they can't afford Clojure engineers.

Didn't mean to be arrogant at all. I simply said it because I have created things in a variety of languages, and to tell whoever was reading and looking for a BE engineer that I have no problem learning new languages that I may not kno

I still write it every now and again under a blue moon, but only when working on legacy stuff or replacing components with their TypeScript counterparts.

For personal projects of course, we can do whatever we want. But I don't make a living with personal projects. I do that by working for a company 8 hours mon-fri, and there I am not in charge of the tech stack used.

I do agree indeed! It has its quirks, but all-in-all easy to use and get stuff done. Not to mention no need to set-up a compiler or anything. It just works.

The few backend devs I've talked to have agreed that the world spins a bit slower in the back-end side of things, without having weekly "chapter meetings" to discuss how the code we wrote last week is now obsolete. Backend de
