Back in 2008 when LinkedIn was still relatively smaller, there were already recruiters who ping people on it regularly. I would receive one a month or every couple weeks. I began a job search in mid 2008, and responded to the first recruite

I have worked as a software engineer for 10+ years in both companies big and small. I've gotten very used to and comfortable with my color deficiencies. I call it out right away when anything comes up and treat it almost comically. Whe

I agree with your first post 100% -- as much as we'd like to think working remote is the future and all the video conferencing startups and Slack make remote work as seamless as the office -- there's lots of little things about wo

Starting to go off a tangent from this thread, but I do have a genuine question. It's a popular argument to say poverty and wealth distribution causes crimes. But over in China, even Hong Kong to some extent, poverty has been a problem

I could be wrong about generalizing it to America in general, since I don't have much experience outside of SF Bay and a little bit in NY (where I also didn't have a pleasant experience, even as a tourist). Trains in Hong Kong and

Not trying to troll, but one just needs to take a minute to get through a few pages on https://www.bartcrimes.com/ to see why public transportation in America, at least in the bay area, is not pleasant. I have first hand ex

Didn't know Medium supported a canonical url to point somewhere else. Thanks for pointing that out. Unfortunately, I think a comment system is one of the things Medium does poorly (I actually like Medium a lot in terms of other aspects

Have you tried caring less about if you get likes or not, or whether your posts are "successful" or not, and just genuinely share things? Whatever posts I make on Facebook are usually things I genuinely want to share, whether it&#

What exactly makes a complete lack of any sort of dev/tech culture around where you live, an obstacle? Wouldn't you do most of your marketing online?

You don't have to be combative. I agree with you. The article is advocating for JS developers to be aware of what makes their SPA react JS app heavy and load slowly. I'm saying that an article like this only makes sense when you h

Every time one of these JS-related posts come up (especially performance-related ones), I find interesting the seemingly huge disconnect between the JS-hating audience of HN and the actual silicon valley corporate/startup world where h

Thanks for sharing this, it's a good, realistic look at what a PH launch means (even a successful one at it). It matches what my opinion is on the subject roughly. As a post-mortem, I think an ideal product for PH (that can take advant

I didn't go to grad school and can't relate to your situation, but sounds like your best bet right now is: 1) Find the path to finish your degree asap (you already spent a number of years on it, shouldn't throw it away), then

Just going by how you talk about the tech stack you work on and a brief look at your Github, my opinion is that you should have the qualifications needed to land a job at the Software Engineer level. Going off the tangents a little bit, I t

I may be off the mark but I feel like managed web hosts play no small part in this. Managed web hosts that run Apache still almost predominantly support PHP only for a scripting language (if you don't count Perl CGI stuff). For us in s

I'm going to play devil's advocate here. I totally hear you re: everything being built in React nowadays and SPAs are annoying both as a user and a developer, I definitely feel like that sometimes. But the answer to your question,

In many cases, some of these answers can even be googled for fairly easily. In other cases, like "What was the first car you had", can be guessed randomly with a relatively high chance of success (Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic pro

I worked at a big hardware chip company 10~12 years ago and we also had a similar setup; except that the "cloud desktop" wasn't really a personal one, it's shared among the team. Whoever needs to do tasks that need the p

I might even argue even if you're old, sell now still. I assume "a ridiculously small team" means 3-4 people. Even assuming an equal split (it sounds like OP is CEO/main founder, so should be even more), that's $3mi

It's not for everybody. It's for certain types of people, and even certain stages in their lives. I also worked in a hypergrowth unicorn from the early days and I would also call those first couple of years there my happiest job,

Probably 80~90% of the time I already know where I want to go, so I hit the usual travel sites (Expedia etc.) to see how much flights are. Sometimes I plan something rather last-minute (travel within a week or two), I go to flights.google.c

Aside from basic retargeting with cookies, there's definitely something more going on between Facebook and Google. (geoip/location might be a good guess) I have a habit of going into Incognito browsing often. Not for viewing any N
