Back in time ( end of January ) when I heard the news about Wuhan and what happened there I was a bit worried, but always positive. When the virus spread in Italy ( I live in Berlin ) I was daily asking "Why don't they stop people

So where do you store the ones that should not allow to be refreshed? How short lived they should be in case of "Reset Password" scenario, when you need to kick out malicious user?

Sadly this won't work when you read code online. GitHub shows comments gray, as well as StackOverflow. This makes one step in the right direction - movement to highlight the important things, rather than everything.

First thing I usually change in a default syntax highlight theme is the color of the comments. I make them green, instead of gray. This makes my code ( IMHO ) much more readable. Also the comments ( when taken into consideration by the deve

But this looks like a prototype. No windshields, no side mirrors. Is this even legal?

My 5 cents. Fitbit discontinued one of their best products Fitbit Flex 2, which I'm still using. It's a 50 bucks rubber band with 1 week battery life that tracks sleep & steps. I don't really know why they cancelled it bu

That’s an amazingly useful thread. My 2 cents regarding the tech stack : 1. Don’t use a build system. Use scripting language that comes preinstalled on Debian / Ubuntu. Peel 5 is still my weapon of choice for robust small web apps. Loo

+1 for freelancing. I never had to deal with any of the bullshit 2 days on-site interview with whiteboard challenge. I don't get the full interview routine because I'm considered "external" and "temporary workforce&

Well I guess this means that if you have a 1k+ lines of static JSON, it would be better if you consider converting it to a string and use JSON.parse instead. I'm not sure I can find a use case of such a big object declaration. Usually

Jeez. Since the last 3 years I re-watch the iPhone 7's keynote and I can say that my phone ( 7 ) is awesome and I can do such an amazing photos... However I haven't done so and I just use it to take a photo of a document to scan i

How does the battery drains during heat waves? I noticed mine gets depleted too fast when the temperature outside is 30+ degrees ( Celsius ).

My Apple Watch ( Series 1 ) is still alive and working quite well. It lasts for 8-9 hours if I don't use the heart rate monitor, while doing sports. I think at this point I could say that my Apple Watch is not "all-day" batte

I would assume sleep tracking would never be a feature. You need to charge your Apple Watch every night, so that's off the limit. I use Fitbit Flex 2 to track my sleep and I wear them both during the day, however during the night only

Well I assume you can still see it when it's dimmed, however if you can't, you can simply lift your wrist.

Funny story. Most blogs I follow via my Reeder [0] ( actually best app I've ever used for (i|mac)OS ... no, I'm not affiliated with the app ) are ones that end up on HN. It's funny but my RSS feed currently is 30% HN / 3

This reminds me of gulp, where you used JS Gulpfile instead of Makefile.

There needs to be an app that has the ability to connect ( via oAuth, whatever ) with DigitalOcean / AWS and that can generate a static website out of a WordPress(-like) editor, keeping the state in the cloud - again DO or whatever in

Facebook can receive whatever they deserve, but let's clap our hands on their development team. React is what currently puts bread on my table and it seems like it will do so for a long time. I can't think of a single big win from

I doubt that all the problems in the world are fixed with money :) I've been to rich companies with crappy websites way too many times. I assume the company has put the focus on the rockets ( as it should ) instead of the marketing, al

I also have no CS degree, I have a law degree though. I could say that "development" is like lego construction - yeah you can do that with a very specific preparation, but nobody actually stops you from reading the F manual ( RTFM

Hardest part to get rid of jQuery was the $.ajax function. Happily now, we can all use the fetch API with some extra polyfills, but pretty much that's it. `el.insertAdjacentElement`, really? Yeah if you carry jQuery thinking with you,

Yeah these are out in the wild right now, but having some sort of support for those would be what I would be really looking for. The missing link is the problem. Generated HTML/CSS doesn't know anything about current frameworks &#

Well my litmus test regarding outdated way of doing stuff is the answer of the question "If I start a new project today, would I use 'x'?". Answer "no" means the technology is fading even for simple use cases.

I use webstorm and yeah this doesn’t contradict with having sublime text installed. When I want to read a large file sublime rocks, but for actual meta developing you need to spend time configuring it. Gladly it’s not like you can’t have th

TBH at this point everyone should do it, since it will be a nightmare flying on these, until the investigation is over. I can’t imagine how the crew feels when assigned to such a fight in these circumstances.
