The hard part of it, to me, really is the notion of a "guaranteed job". They're no more guaranteed a job than I am to wake up tomorrow; though the odds of being successful probably not so bad. I've seen that "proble

On a tangent, how do you feel about Tesla doing OTA updates for core functionality on their cars? Stuff like "autopilot" and whatnot.

Fairly random, though they generally break it into sections. Typically something to do with a high level overview of something, then digging into some finer details of it, then off to whiteboard some very unrelated code (fizz buzz, fibonacc

I'll typically make a fairly simple template by 'hand' in my editor, then port it to Jekyll or WordPress or something else like that. As far as writing + deploying a simple HTML site, it's been 2-3 months since I've

Well, like I said, I'd have never known about it if other people hadn't told me. I can't speak to what Reddit "should" do; in _my_ niche area, Reddit works just fine the way it is. If they were to start "doing

In my 5+ years, I tend to agree with you; there are occasionally little spats that I see, but by and large-- I'd never have known about all of this "bad" stuff if it weren't for other people telling me about it.

I wasn't insinuating that everyone should make their own form handler; I was just agreeing that formspree is pretty good for what it is, and I haven't really felt the need to utilize another service (or reinvent the service and sh

I'm amazed this warranted research and an WSJ article.

Not really sure; I've been using Formspree for a while now with no complaints. Typeform looks interesting as well, but I haven't really found a persuasive argument to get me off of Formspree for most things.

Slightly different domain, but I recently had to work on a system that retained email addresses that were known targets of aggressive spamming (450MM rows). In a nutshell, the idea was to compare lists of emails and test to see how many acc

Interesting. I'll have to play with it this weekend. Thanks for the information.

I use Neo4j for two projects at the moment, though I make pretty heavy use of the REST api as I'm not working on the JVM. What advantages does Stardog have over Neo4j?

Why is that? Getting the CMS out of their way is one of the primary reasons they outsourced development (or implementation, or whatever) to someone else (agency, freelancer, whoever). If what they're using day-in and day-out is in thei

I wouldn't necessarily take client praise as a testament to being good or bad. When I started out I was pushing WP sites; I usually gauged things by complaints (very similar vibe to when I was working on cars). I have had very few call

While not saying I whole heartedly agree with that statement, the admin panel is a major selling point.
