   Low. Much too low. Going rate starts in the low 100s and has no super hard cap. 80/hr overseas, or in less urban parts of the US is pretty standard. I’d question the reason for staying, though, since finding higher paying remote work i

   This is the point: I don’t TDD, but i am a big fan of tests. I’m this case the incorrect spec can be flagged, but all the other incorrect specs will also be there. If your Fix doesn’t break a spec, great, but if it does you can check if tha

   I think it’s worth nothing that pretty much any vanilla js library works out of the box with svelte with very little extra effort. Don’t discount the size of that ecosystem

   You can buy the backcrosses, as far as I know...it's the modified ones from SUNY ESF that you can't buy yet.

   I tend to split route params and query params by their function: Query params tell me something _about_ how I want the data filtered, displayed, or grouped. Route params _identify_ the object or collection I'm retrieving.

   Boy. This is the best explanation of this belief I've come across yet. It's coherent and reasonable, even if I disagree. My highest scoring StackOverflow answer [1] (and my most controversial) is on exactly this topic and _no one_

    I have no doubt that you’re making these claims in good faith, but currently the score is 1 citation to 0…

    Man, I loved The Dig. Once my kids are old enough to _not_ have nightmares from some of the scenes we're doing it.

    I think that rings true to my experience. It does _not_ ring true to my experience with audio peripherals in particular or with networking concerns.

    The main reason I switched over to a windows box (after WSL2 was released) was because I hate dealing with obtuse hardware and driver issues. I am a software engineer, but I work in user space and have zero interest in managing hardware i

    Conspiracies and conspiracy theories are different. People actually conspire to do all sorts of things, all over the world. Conspiracy theories are different, though because they start with a “what if” and move to belief instead of starting

    Evaluating this for a client, I’m unclear on how this works with PHI under HIPAA, do I still need a BAA? This comment started as a joke and now I’m genuinely thinking about it; also from the disk usage claims which make it clear they’re not

    Reading this out loud is incredibly difficult. Discovered it in my Sophomore year of College, and it took my two roommates and I about 45 minutes to read through the whole thing out loud because we were laughing so hard.

    You need to renegotiate your time off or find a different employer… As a related side note: unlimited time off gets a well deserved bad reputation, but there are plenty of real examples. A great indicator that it’s real is a minimum policy.

    I wonder if the solution is _not_ naming the categories...simply ordering them by difficulty...

    Totally agree. My boys are reading at an extremely high level. I wish sites like these were a grid of topical and reading level.
