I think it lacks usability in OS X. I never felt comfortable using it. Slack, since the first moment I opened I simply got it.

They don't hire remote? I remember they have a strong bias to recruit for Bay Area companies but I remember being asked if I'm looking for remote work too. So maybe they do.

I've found that some companies when they interview they send you a challenge that doesn't represent a real world scenario and it takes a different type of skill than real world skills. If that's the case the only way to get b

As a Mexican I agree. Tijuana is not particularly one of the star cities of Mexico.

This is my thought. I LIKE to read clever code. Most often than not it teaches me something. Some neat way to do x. It teaches how to write terse code and I'm probably going to learn how to apply that to other areas of my code. I would

Relax, Buffet is a good man. Anybody who has followed his life knows he is a good person overall and that he likes to joke even in the most inappropriate moments. Buffet if yes he has a responsibility to be political towards the public he&#

It really is the same. He very much could branched off your branch and once merged just start syncing with master. And I see that better than waiting for your PR to be merged.

> So node will be forever more compute bound to a single thread blocking all I/O. I don't think I understood your point. But is not Node.js supposed to not block long lasting tasks?

by gaastonsr 10y ago
It's not a Node.js limitation either. The design was not thought out from the beginning. It has happened to me before. I design something, then I run it in multiple CPUS and it doesn't make sense anymore... Or realize that if try

I thought the same or even the same 4 cpus for proxies and a shared 1 for the cache service.

Love this, in my experience also, good programmers make a lot of small commits. While less experienced people do ocasional commits regardless if they are big or small. Something your chart doesn't show is people who make a lot of commi

It's always worth to learn something new as long as it fascinates you and you enjoy working with it. Otherwise stick deepening your knowledge in the languages you are already know, as somebody else already said.

I'm a backer, and I don't care as long as they ship the promised product. And if Fitbit acquisition is going to help Pebble continue developing THEIR technology but under Fitbit name that's ok for me. I would be upset if Pebb

No, she goes for Spain Spanish. I'm a native Mexican and I had trouble understanding what she said. Funny thing: at the end she said "a huevo cabron" which is a Mexican expression but she was using a different accent.

I agree, tired of elitism but > When you write Javascript and use first class functions (ideally without side-effects, but who the fuck really cares), that's functional programming. Sorry but no. Functional programming requires a wh

Again, in your view. But that doesn't mean that it doesn't have it.

I've always felt this attitude towards giving trust to the new hire is a good thing. It remembers me to something I read not so long ago where a Perl core contributor makes the same thing with collaborators. What I don't find ok i

Great answer. Sometimes I hate HN for people like above.

I just want to hear your answer with one of those... How did you do type checking before TypeScript (or the like) in JS? give me a real answer.......

Don't let it discourage you. If it didn't work for him doesn't mean is not going to work for you.

This might not be objective because I hate sequelize but sequelize sucks! I never understood its API. Is so clunky compared to Bookshelf.js. Bookshelf is less opinionated on the way you integrate it with your web app with makes it good to w

by gaastonsr 10y ago
Noo, give it a go Bookshelf.js you will be more happy. Yes, maintenance lacks behind sometimes but the core is strong. And if you do anything particularly hard you always can tap into knex and get all its powerful API and if that is not eno

The article is fucking crazy. Web apps and software in general should be about separations of concerns not technologies. When in React you define the structure + the events your component can receive you are wrapping up that concern nicely

Which is not true. Most frameworks have good support for legacy browsers. And when some library fails in an old browser is always something so small that I end up making a PR and getting it fixed the same day.
