I'm a React and React Native consultant in Indianapolis. $100k for mid-level is about right, but the cities you listed (New York, Boston, San Diego) push that number to $125k+. I have some availability if you're interested in a

If you're interested, I am in the process of writing a react ebook, and I'm trying to focus on being very simple and explaining every step along the way. In fact, the whole first half of the book doesn't use a server at all

The question which isn’t answered in the article is: how would the fund have done if passively invested in the market? If the market lost money over the same time period, then although extremely high, the fees are a relatively "good d

Other than computer vision, the most accurate positioning method is "ultra wideband" (UWB). It's possible to get close to cm accuracy, but it can be expensive. There is also a calibration problem: if the readers get bumped

If a website using https (HN) points to a website not using https (the blog), then the referer is hidden. So it's not something HN is doing specifically, it's just because one is https and the other is not. More info here: http:

After reading the pdf, I'm still not clear: does this mean UAVs can operate in regular airspace (above 400 ft) with proper licensing, or are they still (for now) limited to under 400 ft, and away from populated areas?

Could you provide more information about the fine you mention? On the FAQ ( http://www.dol.gov/ebsa/faqs/faq-noticeofcoverageoptions.htm... ) it says there is no fine or penalty for failing to provide a notice.

(I've evaluated several wifi tracking systems) - your device doesn't have to connect to the network to be tracked; wifi just has to be on. While searching for nearby networks, devices constantly chirp their MAC address.

Try to rescue from afar first - throw a life ring, or anything they can grab on to. If you must do an in person rescue, always approach from the back. If you come from the front, they'll use you as a "ladder" and climb on yo

You mention Ruby on your "become fluent" list, but I get the impression that Google doesn't use much ruby. Is the feeling there that skills in ruby can transfer, or is it more important to focus on Java, C++ or Python?

I used to have a lot of trouble switching between side projects and not really getting anything done - so I thought I would share what I do now to improve that. As always, I'm happy to answer any questions!

I like and value most HN comments, but I agree that there is quite a bit of negativity. One way to look at it is that if the average commenter even accidentally makes a negative comment once per year, and if 10,000 people view a thread, th

I would be more interested to read what you had to say about the exercises in your blog. If your posts were thoughtful and relevant to the job opening, that would have more weight than just a bullet point saying you had finished the book.

Those numbers are close to my app's update rates as well. I found it surprising that it happened so quickly too, but then noticed how my wife updates her apps: she hates those little red numbers, so will update almost immediately to make

bluehost.com - I don't remember why I chose them originally, but I have had my domains and hosting there for a while, and have been happy. I put a few sites on their lowest plan and they have "unlimited" space and bandwidth.
