I'd love to see more debate about just this.

I don't have stats to give you a firm answer, but if I were going to research this subject, I'd consider the fact that Android devices dominate developing countries. Advertisers in those countries probably can't afford large

You've clearly articulated an ideal I've felt for over a year but couldn't convey completely. Thank you!

"The weak-minded" Sounds foolish. Even strong-willed individuals can be influenced if the level of external stimuli is high enough. It's usually those noting that "no, not I!" who are most oblivious to the affects o

I went to The Iron Yard, their very first offering in Atlanta, back in 2014. My cohort was focused on full-stack development; it started with Ruby, Sinatra, and finally Rails. I graduated that summer and immediately began doing contract wor

So, it's kind of a crazy situation, isn't it? If you have yarn, you likely have NPM installed, too, and potentially use both depending on what project you're currently working on. Personally, I often use yarn when starting ne

> I seriously doubt that most people today would feel like someone with a 2nd grade education or even an 8th grade education deserves a job as they are, without first getting more education. Speak for yourself, cowboy. It's ironic,

That's a fair accusation - you're responsible for increasing the classification of material if you find it to be under-classified, or request a review in the opposite case. So, it wouldn't be surprising if something came acro

This is wrong. The classification level of information is determined by confidentiality of the information's source. This is done to protect deeply embedded or highly technical means of information gathering. For example, information t

Unrelated, but relevant LPT: the vegetarian meals would often include peanut M&Ms; I'm assuming to up the protein content of the pack. Also, the pound cakes (especially lemon poppy-seed) were so delicious I'd search them out,

It's amazing that they'd allow 7+ attempts to correctly identify the customer's voice. To me, that signals either poor security practices or a lack of confidence from HSBC in the technology itself.

From what I've read, it's not uncommon for these types of malware to implement similar schemes. They send the HTTP requests to one of N domains over some period of time in order to detect whether or not the malware is being run in

Agreed. Also, I've never noticed someone using both a front-end framework AND jQuery simultaneously. Usually, at least in projects I've collaborated on, this is redundant. However, I've never used Vue.js, so perhaps this is s

That's besides the point. I don't agree with the law and I'm not a Republican, but categorizing large groups of people don't benefit anyone but those in power. Such nearsightedness belongs on Facebook and Twitter, not HN

That's understandable but this really isn't the place for that. Personally, I've been talking about how ridiculous it is in the office. Also, my parents are poor and directly affected, but blaming Christians isn't benefi

Honestly, I've never heard of a law like that. The U.S. is a big place; whereas that may be the case in parts of the country, in the south where I'm from, that's never become known to me, especially in the rural areas where I
