Having been raised in a community in Los Angeles with extremely affluent people, I am highly skeptical of this article. From my experience, money leads to malaise and depression, and isn't a great end goal. There are plenty of miserabl

The difference is that Tesla doesn't charge for any of these features, and all of this is configurable via their onboard system (of course, only when your car isn't driving ;) ). You can even configure your car to "creep&quot

I've heard from the CTO that they have a fraction of the amount of workers than most other car plants, and they've intentionally developed it this way so that their factory is programmable to make it more flexible for other cars.

I agree about the title, but this was a little unnecessary. I mean, he himself is a pretty well-known front-end dev with a pretty impressive background ( http://alexmaccaw.com/ ). Critique the work, not the author.

I'm a little confused. How much of this is client-side optimization-specific? It seems like most of these (if not all) are also standards in making your server-side rendering apps faster as well. For example minifying, CDN, GZip, etc.

You're assuming that public image of said employers is unimportant, and that all employers are okay with being immoral. There's something to be said about companies with happy employees that don't feel like their employers ar

These "unethical people seeking to get rich" could also outsource all jobs to third world countries and get their work done pennies on the dollar -- yet a lot of them don't. It doesn't look good for your company when you

Women are definitely assumed less capable, or at the very least, unhirable for some reason. See this link (" http://qz.com/103453/i-understood-gender-discrimination-afte... ). I might not have a link to a study for

See my post to mike_ash. It's hard to say that it's "pretty strong support for the fact that the age gap isn't actually real" without also noting that there's a lack of confidence in female workers' perfor

So you're proposing that because women given 18% less in wages that we should take advantage of that fact, underpay them, and contribute more to gender inequality in the workplace? I'd love to see what your female coworkers think

I think I might need to clarify the issue -- the problem isn't that you can't pay out to multiple people, it's that you have to pay out to each person with a separate call to the API. In order to pay out to two separate peopl

I feel the writer wants me to feel bad about not working 100% of the time. What's so bad about procrastination, as long as we don't overindulge?

Transfers still only send to one recipient at a time, no? At least, this is how the documentation reads (recipient_id is taken as a parameter as opposed to recipient_id<s>). Also, my problem is that you need to send a different reques
