I don't really see how Promises leads to that... do you mean the fact that not all libraries support them out of the box? Bluebird (probably my favorite Promises implementation) has nice features to interface pretty easily between call

Is there something in particular that you do not like about Promises?

Bingo. I usually find the people that complain the loudest about JS have been burned by their own ignorance. I'll admit the learning curve for basic JS syntax can be a little high, but reading through and understanding most of Crockfor

Quick solution: add the element to your adblocker. Most let you quickly select elements on the page. Make sure to get the actual container (might need to do the image first) so you aren't left with giant gaps.

I don't think it's a computing problem as much as it is a UI problem. We can send the shit out of some files... if you know what you're doing (browsers retrieve tons of files all the time, for example). It's difficult cr

"Bad UX" gets thrown around like "bad customer service" in retail: usually, it really means "fix my problem before I've even tried to solve it myself" and then throwing a tantrum when that doesn't hap

Can't say I've played it. I plan to learn some one day, but I live in the US. A lot of people here at least know how to play chess. I think many have never even heard of Go.

Chess. Seriously. Just hear me out. I'm mostly in the same boat traveling a lot for work. On my last trip, me and several coworkers/co-travelers started playing a lot of chess together and are continuing to have a blast. I've

I don't think it's a high risk for their reputation, though. Compared to other forms of support, it is still better. I'd rather talk to a chatbot than: - the same (or worse) bot over a phone - someone who only vaguely speaks

Keeps things that are coupled closer together. This is beneficial for several reasons: a) forces parity between your code structure and test structure. b) restructuring takes potentially half the time. c) easily see and navigate to tests fo

In context, it reads more like ""It’s tough to [sell premium features/content] when your most active user base is too young to have a steady income." While they don't provide any evidence to support this, I can kind

Another question for you: who determines when a project is done or that it has met the requirements for MVP? For example, say I pick up one of the projects and the subscriber picks me to work on it. Okay, great. I go and work on it and cons

It really depends on the text and the images. It is likely a lot more difficult than they are making it out to be. If it were that easy, why wouldn't they do it themselves? If they just don't have any technical employees able to d

But who makes all of the minute feature decisions? E.g. one of the projects wants a bookkeeping service. That's a pretty vague description. Especially if they want to tie it into their other systems. If I get final say in what goes in,

by epicide 9y ago
Yeah, I've personally been wanting something like that as well, but I wouldn't want to implement it. It would be something like 10% actually writing the system and 90% dealing with news outlets to actually get them on board.

This is a shallow equals, though. I can guarantee that we will differ in implementation specifics. This sounds like a good idea on paper, but the reality is that most of the value of a project is in the implementation details. There are cou
