Nice find, at least there are some screenshots that give us an idea of what this looks like. From what I can see, it's a lot like the type of content I've experienced smaller companies asking, which I'm for because it does re

The post seems to say a lot about how Byteboard will provide a more insightful, less biased experience for recruiters through a project-based interview process. But I don't see any concrete examples of what that looks like in the post.

It really isn't that unusual. The five pound note for example has Churchill on one side and the Queen on the other.

Is Microsoft mopping up the enterprise users who don't want to use Slack or is it actually taking away users from Slack? The article seems to imply that Slack has its place among smaller groups/businesses while Teams appeals to la

I've seen a lot of comments like this on HN since earlier today regarding the Stripe API downtime. It's very positive and I'm glad to see it in response to an event that usually garners frustration. Never used Stripe's A

To your point, I saw a set of job listings for a start-up where the most junior engineer was a "Lead Engineer". Keep in mind that the requirements included basic knowledge of programming languages and web design, so this seemed to

I don't think school teaches time management. Sure, there are plenty of people who learn time management due to the constraints of school, but I don't think they are the majority. The people in my major usually either put all of t

I have no financial background so forgive me if this is an ignorant question, but is there a way to treat runs that would expose insolvency (despite sufficient and careful financial planning) like DDoS attacks that would expose an exhaustio

Isn't this a lot like asking why Tyson invested in Beyond Meat when BYND is a threat to Tyson? Maybe you could call this defensively "investing in the future" of your industry (if this turns out to be anything at all).

That's fair. If I had any kids I think that'd be where I'd want to be spending my time anyways (I hope)!

Not agreeing or disagreeing, but I don't think Snapchat is owned by Facebook.

If you take a look at the announcement post for the framework, you can see some discussion about that: https://code.fb.com/ml-applications/horizon/ One application that they mention related (at least loosely) to s

Interesting. I'm almost not too concerned about the look but more so the impact it'll have on my daily life outside of that.

Congratulations. That's great to hear. The eating part is going to be tough, but I figure that would probably be easier with invisalign than braces.

I didn't realize those were problems in Seattle. I guess both places have their downsides though. Professionally, did you have any problems after living/working in Seattle? I had slight concerns that people in the bay might lack p

That sounds nice. Was the winter weather hard to get over? I'm from Chicago so I figured I'd just be trading lots of cold and snow for relatively less cold and mostly rain in the winters.

My big concern is while I was interning in the bay I didn't really like it that much -- it felt like a big suburb to me. I didn't really get to do much in the city, so most of what I saw of it were sprawling hills of close, run-do
