Valid point. But I still reject the notion of "that sucks but might as well get mine". Sounds like there's a lot of space for ad networks that don't suck. Or monetization models that don't rely on spammy, useless ad

You make the thing you're requiring an "external", such that the bundler knows it's available somewhere but won't include it. Here's browserify's documentation about the matter: https://github.c

From PG's essay "Economic Inequality": "Most people who get rich tend to be fairly driven. Whatever their other flaws, laziness is usually not one of them... Variation in productivity is far from the only source of econ

Yeah, that's definitely true. "HTML email" in this case is a synonym for "email with lots of images and crud" in it.

HTML emails reduce clickthrough rates: http://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/plain-text-vs-html-emails-... I think most people (correctly) interpret HTML-ness in email as a signal that the email is undesirable.

I don't like inlining styles as objects in React so I went looking for a solution that would work with the toolchain I'm using for my current project. I'm working on a project now that is using a combination of react-css-modu

I know what you mean! I feel like I'm squinting at a typewritten page of text, or something fresh from the printer with maybe a little too much ink on it. It's beautiful, but such a departure from what I normally read it's al

The intent is that the job seeker asks these questions of the place that's hiring, not the other way around.

My favorite question to ask as the interviewee is kinda isomorphic of that one: "If you could spare $10,000 of the engineering budget to fix anything in your business right now, what would it be?" I also like the similar: "If

You could imagine something like some churrascarias use: you have a little badge near you that shows green when you're good, or you turn it over to the red side when you need help.

You seem to have a particular political axe to grind. Fair enough. > It's not the job of companies to make "marginalized" groups feel welcome, or to be a good "culture fit" for anyone in particular, unless you (a

Never said they weren't allowed, I'm not making a demand, and I'm not the one PG said is generally a nice person.

by drhayes9 11y ago
I don't know, this feels like confirmation bias. When PG talks about founders being "nice", nice to whom? Their VC and advisor? Sure. Customers? Sure, hopefully. But as we go down the line I'd argue that startups demonst

They added 2d support in 4.3 a couple of years ago, but it was still really clunky then. Like, you still had to texture wrap 3d objects behind the scenes and it made 2d GUIs painful to use with no native pixel measurements. Is that fixed in

Unity still doesn't have great support for making pure 2d games of the Mario/Metroid/Castlevania variety and is awfully heavyweight compared to an HTML5 canvas. That, and the accessibility of the API vs. having to download an
