   I've heard shopify has been shaking down SaaS apps for past revenue % which they charge outside of the shopify ecosystem. Does anyone know if this is true or have more details?

   What struck me most about this essay is the privilege required to make it all possible. From educational institution to educational institution changing focus and whimsically studying other fields without much care for how to make a living

    I was ghosted by a recruiter at Stripe. As in, they didn't show up to a call they scheduled with me. I emailed patio11 about it. He brought their head of recruiting into the conversation to remedy the situation. Their head of recruitme

    I wonder how many, if any, great software engineers simply let their careers stall out because they don't want to deal with the ceremony around tech hiring.

    You're optimizing for the wrong thing there. Given 10 positions you need to fill anticipating these hires will stick around for 3-5 years each. Pick one: - [ ] 10 "less experienced" developers for 3-5 years - [ ] 9 "very

    This used to be accurate in the days of auto initializing jquery plugins, but probably isn’t the case today if you’re actually using stimulus.

    I've stopped contributing to SO. SO is simply going the same route as Experts Exchange (if you're old enough to remember it). It has amassed a significant amount of knowledge (for free!) that they'll some day hide behind a pa

    I just went through a job search and this is what I landed on. Every CRUD webapp startup thinks they need FAANG-like hiring processes and fucking suck at it. I ended up taking a job that was mostly a no-interview process. Two calls to talk

    I just went through an job hunt. I've been in tech for nearly two decades, and tech hiring has gotten definitively worse. It was never good to begin with, but it has become more painful from a candidate's perspective. Employers ar

    I really like Crystal and have had good success using it for web stuffs. I still reach for ruby first, because the dev feedback loop is a lot faster and the ecosystem is more vibrant. The biggest gain I've found in using Crystal vs Rub

    I doubt it. Distributed work forces being successful is more of a top-down way of management than anything. Also, COVID-19 remote work is not normal remote work. Lots of other stressors and distractions. So the taste might not be a good one

    There are two camps here that strongly correlate to their opinions: those who have been through a job hunt in the last 5 years, and those who haven’t.

    When was the last time an Apple product launch wasn't leaked? I feel like we've known what was coming ever since the infamous lost iPhone prototype (iPhone 6 maybe?). It has been a while.

    Yes, you're correct, but have you ever used an app that worked offline or performed well with a poor network connection? Or a website maybe provided wicked fast data access despite only having a 2G connection? These technologies can be
