This usage of “app” I believe denoted the category of websites that would have been desktop applications ten years ago. For instance, Google Docs is a web app.

WhatsApp is owned by Facebook as of 2014, so unfortunately all the same issues with Facebook apply to them too.

What’s more, this article is made by employees from Washington state, where they don’t even have a separate tipped minimum wage.

Legally in America, employees who get tips instead of wages have the tips added onto a minimum of $2.13, which is three times more than these contractors were making. More than that, these contractors are from Washington state, which doesn&

For clarity on my thought process: I had interpreted lisper’s original comment as “Religions aren’t true because no afterlife exists.” After what lisper’s said in responses, I see that their actual argument is “Religions aren’t true because

So is your proof that the afterlife can’t exist summed up by “brain-cloning technology is not within current human reach, and there’s no non-human thing out there that could do the brain-cloning”? Because sure, I agree with that statement.

I agree that you have evidence for a theory that there is no soul; I disagree on whether that is evidence against a generic afterlife. Two things could be simultaneously true: First, that the "mind is a function of some kind of computa

Some people (myself included) just prefer the taste of skim milk. I know it’s not healthier - compared to whole milk, it doesn’t fill you up but it has the same amount of sugar and almost the same amount of calories - but I still enjoy it m

The author’s doing the rational thing, but BigTechCo that requires juggling certainly isn’t. It is left to the reader to decide whether this is relevant to the industry’s interviewing practices.

I know nothing about MongoDB pricing, but it’s possible that Amazon is taking a loss on DocumentDB to keep companies using solely AWS products, while MongoDB Inc. obviously can’t do that since they have no other revenue stream. So the compe

An undo button would definitely help, especially if it is able to undo multiple times. Thanks for the fast help! I really appreciate it, and it will make me even more likely to keep on using Feeder in the future

I use a dedicated RSS feeder app to see blog posts from dozens of different blogs that update on frequencies ranging from ten times a day to once a year. It’s also useful for webcomics like xkcd.

Highly processed foods are problematic when they’re unhealthy, which they usually are. The impossible burger seems to be healthy, relatively speaking - it’s not loaded with fats, sugar, and salt, unlike a lot of processed food.

I think the "of choice" is the hard part here. For instance, if you're a JS developer: do you donate to Mozilla? NPM? Your JS framework? Other libraries you use?
