I’d like to see a general trend in throwback UIs where, for example, fonts have been updated. It doesn’t have to be extravagant, but if I’m reading it, the creature comforts of a modern font are nice. It’s like taking a classic car and pu

The article’s title is “Where does the plastic in our oceans come from?”, and HN lists it as “Ocean Plastic Emissions by Country”. Indeed, one section is titled “Which countries emit the most plastic to the ocean?”. Don’t let any of that fo

How is this not a better established position? I see Snopes as pure, unadulterated bias. Honestly, I see all those fact checking websites the same way. Which is fine, though humorously this pairs nicely with another thread on HN this mornin

Wow. Ok, great reply. Advice to you: don’t just market up the chain, also market back down. Obviously this is general advice, and not specifically to you, but if I don’t see my EM adding value, then it’s little different than then not seein

What should my expectation be for EMs as an IC? I’ve spent time in management and time in The Valley, but not in management in The Valley. It generally appears they take care of “other stuff” but are generally expensive proxies (in time, co

As an aside, I’ve recently been onboarded into a heavy Java ecosystem (backend, Java 8). What are the best resources to follow for growing in this language - and not just mapping patterns from one language to another?

So how do you productively deal with this? There’s got to be a way, I just don’t know what it is. The worse form of this is when they: 1) make poor choices faster than you can catch up 2) have a less senior team (in ability, not title) that

A Starbucks Espresso shot has 75mg at 1oz. A Starbucks dark roast (short size) has 130mg at 8oz - that is 16.25mg/oz. That means the espresso has 4.6x the caffeine per volume. I’d say those people you’re tired of have something worth l

This reads like “we shouldn’t worry about the cause, only the effect”. As in, I’m unable to see another interpretation of your remark. No! We should worry about the cause and also concern ourselves with managing the effect. If we can prev
