I think those numbers are bogus based on my personal experience. I do live in the USA and work in tech the past 10 years.

Linode is a sponsor to my YouTube channel. They have 5.00 plans and have for well over a year now. 10.00 plans too. Linode seems to be doing quite well. They tout themselves as the largest privately held cloud hosting company in the wo

I find it interesting they are laying off 7% of their staff while hiring new developers. I say this as they had a job post in DC recently saying we could join their growing company. Are they growing or retracting?

No offense, I'd let her go. Speaking from a guy with 14 years of marriage and a subsequent nasty divorce. I have custody of my 2 children as well. You only live once. Retire early.

Interesting that stumbleupon was also a reboot of a failed 90's website before that.

Whether Razor or Server Side React, it's the same thing. Both are compiled and produced on the server and sent to the client. No difference except that react is a much better template engine.

Correct. In no way is this tool a webpack killer. Webpack solves a lot of problems that clearly this author of this post is not familiar with based on the clickbaity title.

I'll definitely check this out. One of the issues I ran into with ES6 module importing was the dependencies of dependencies which didn't have ES6 importing options. So, I found myself editing source code for dependencies which

From what little I've seen of this guy, he really doesn't come off as a genuine person at all.

A few things developers are waking up to... burnout, working evenings and weekends, a life outside of code, having children or families, master in a specific field vs jack of all trades (master of none), money is more important than free sn

You realize they use React as well too right? Java and other tech helps them do the same thing.

Why is this guy trending on HackerNews? To boost his channel?

Not a bad thing in my opinion. It will raise the price for developers who know their stuff. Open source needs to be re-evaluated in this day and age. We are churned and burned by company execs for their personal mission for riches. No

5% fee + "Payment processing fees charged by PayPal and Stripe are also applicable." So a donate button from paypal is equivalent but the creator can save 5%?

Are you just referring to FAANG silicon valley circle jerks? You must be? Ain't nobody in large companies taking advice from some manager who leaked mental health information about an employee. I think you're working in a very

What a terrible industry we work in. He should at the very least let them fire him so he can claim unemployment (assuming in the states) which the company will have to pay for. This may also be a lesson to never work for a startup. He s

Unfortunately, it's like that on Reddit too. I just can't find an unbiased, not trying to shill their product response to just about anything. Fake reviews everywhere, fake gurus on YouTube, Fake answers on Q&A sites. No

The web used to be fun and unpredictable. It feels like Google has become a tasteless bland search engine serving up the highest bidders these days. The known authorities on any given subject. It's not difficult for small niche we

Just curiously asking, how does one pay for it if they don't have a job or lose their job? I think people should be less tied to their employers but how do they get coverage if they have no job? Who is paying for it?

Lots of places in DC do this as well. I think it's mostly a startup thing. I commonly refer to one of the greatest C++ programmers of all time (Scott Meyers) as an authority on this stupid hazing ritual. "I hate anything that as

I see these false claims about size a lot, especially spread out huge Texas cities. A lot of people claim Dallas is bigger than DC but DC has way more people, especially if you add in Baltimore and or the millions driving down 95 every day
