Okay; my response was to what you said, which was that my editor doesn't exist.

Yeah. Large companies are better at screwing contractors than small ones, on the whole. You're less likely to have a human relationship you can leverage.

Is it? I don't have a retail shop and a menu or anything; I need to have some conversation to propose the work and timeline. That's all I'm saying. A couple of free hours of estimating and discovery. I assume everyone goes t

I disagree. I negotiate all the time, and often even get companies to use my contract or at least incorporate many of my terms. Edit: If you aren't ready to say "sorry we couldn't make a deal" and bail, you'll never

Usually by the end of the consultation period, it ends up seeming reasonable. I don't have any tricks. Just direct, honest, hard work.

Then I'd walk away from your deal. The main way I get what I want is by not being desperate, and by doing a great job. Most of my business is referral. I'm a known quantity. Also, I encourage against fixed fee and prefer agile&#x2

You absolutely can. They can afford it. Can you afford to walk away? If they can tell you're thirsty, they'll convince you you're a dime a dozen and rake you over the coals. That's finance's job; but everyone else&

Get at least 50% upfront for fixed fee projects. I always take 100%. Clients can be very inventive when it comes to withholding payment, and freelancers can't afford the time to arbitrate/sue. Companies know this and will bully y

Theoretically it's possible to have a not-buggy vim. It's not fair to exclude everyone who is able to configure a more performant editor just because you can't. Your claim that "in the actual world it doesn't exist

You actually were lucky that this didn't bite you until now. Not fair to blame your old job for waiting this long to force mfa. Edit: you can't say what they did deliberately or not. They're doing what makes the most sense fo

Every year, audit yourself for things like this. I compulsively check my own security... security is a frame of mind. Delete unused oauth apps, dead emails. Flipside - offboard people quicky and completely when they leave your team.

This sucks but isn't Atlassians fault. The lesson is of course to never connect an account you don't own to anything you can't afford to lose.

My thoughts are along these lines, too. If it's not incrementally adoptable in webpack/etc projects, it won't see significant adoption.

I accept Clojure as a lisp. Didn't mean to start a holy war. I just don't personally want to deal with it and its ecosystem, which includes Java. I need your average web developer to be able to clone the repo, run yarn, and go.
347.
by hashkb 7y ago
I do. Checking it out.
348.
by hashkb 7y ago
Because I don't want Clojure. It's too opinionated. Also CLJS has (had? been a minute) painfully slow tooling.
349.
by hashkb 7y ago
There are too many incomplete lisp-on-js solutions. No, CLJS doesn't count. It would be so awesome if one ever made it to actual usable maturity. Is it too hard? Is there something that makes everyone give up? Or is lisp just too aca

There are plenty of other online retailers. The guitar cable example triggered me, because even in the best of times you can get better gear from a smaller business with the same two day shipping. I'm sure there are tons of other examp

Nah, it's to distract from the Impeachment.

Can't just change the definition of violent. Agree that the crime is much more serious than it looks on the surface. There's probably a perfect word. Predatory?

by hashkb 7y ago
Just ridiculous. Choice of instrument/rig and articulation alone are enough. If I annihilate "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" on guitar like Hendrix did to the Star Spangled Banner, I did that and I deserve to be paid if you en

The understanding is your monolith may use third party services. Nobody is writing SQL engines here.

And speed is always a requirement. There are tons of studies you can look up about the impact of page load time on e-commerce revenue.

There's a middle ground. I like to say "fast is a feature" or "it's not done til it's fast". Getting the feature working is a first step, but shipping a slow feature is never ok.

Most theaters have reserved seating now. If you show up "on time" you're gonna get ads and previews. Go 20 minutes late; if you're early, walk out and chat or go to the little arcade they always have b

You missed it! If you're going to comment on someone's article, and their blog has an "about" page, read it before leaving the comment. It's baseline etiquette.

That's true. It's less wrong; and my intent was to add a bit of fun. Sorry, guy.
