There's a Brazilian credit card company that gives you a virtual credit card. You can generate as many new credit cards as you want, even multiple times a day, to use for online banking exclusively. I think privacy.com does a similar s

I've been feeling pain in my right elbow for a couple of years now. Doctor diagnosed as carpal tunnel syndrome. You know the picture. Spent tons of time playing video game and works in an office since forever. I can't afford physi

Nothing wrong to be exercise regularly without progression. I wouldn't be surprised if this was even better than going ham on the gym because of how little exercise the human body actually needs to be considered healthy. Not saying the

From my experience the Toronto number is heavily underestimated. There is a huge shortage of senior devs here and this is intermediate level pay.

I find funny that people say Facebook is evil because of this quote: "Give people just the right amount of dopamine and fiddle with their psyche in all the right ways in order to maximize the amount of time they spend staring at their

I understand your point of view, but honestly, this type of comparison makes no sense. Cigarettes are not good in any way.

A nutritionist/dietitian would be your best bet. But my 2c about the sugar in fruits, they're not as bad as refined sugar because of the fiber. You have to look at food as a whole, not as macronutrients combined together.

Three years ago I was hired as a Business Analyst, with 0 background in anything related to IT. Our team was responsible to maintain a legacy base in COBOL. As time went by, everything started to make sense and I was able to grasp almost ev

Most banks don't require you to be physically present anymore. I don't know about Banco do Brasil, but I had accounts in Bradesco and Santander, both have a line to call your manager in a call center, and you can do pretty much ev

Funny thing, I live in Rio de Janeiro, and no one is talking about it today. That's how much people care. It's sad.

The best way to read more books is reading books that you enjoy rather than just because you have the urge to finish it, no doubt.

I've read some of Taleb's books and while I find him very smart and with very valuable insights, I'd rather take some of these extreme things he says (like what you pointed) with a grain of salt.

What almost always happen: the doctor plans 30 min appointments and takes 45-60 min for every appointment. So if you book your appointment early in the day, you're good to arrive on time. But if you book in the afternoon, you'll b

I'm wondering why you're flagged. Yes, fruits have sugar (fructose), but when you're eating the fruit whole your comment is on point. The fiber in the fruit makes the sugar absorption slower. Of course if you're drinking

I see your point. How much do I actually have to know is a very good question. Because there will always be something else to learn. In my case, I want to have a good base knowledge before leaning on any kind of "magic". I got int

But I guess that's exactly the point, isn't it? The fact that Flask/Express are so bare bones, you end up learning a lot, so for learning purposes makes a lot of sense.

Sorry for my ignorance as I am learning web development. How would Express.js compare to Flask in this scenario? From what I've read it seems they are pretty similar in concept. I do know the basic syntax of both JS and Python, but I t
