My $0.02 on fasting and programming ... I've been intermittently fasting over the last month or so by not eating from dinner until lunch the next day, every day. I read about a number of health benefits and figured it would be a good w

Looking forward to trying it but the app crashed hard, twice (got the iOS "charge your phone" screen when I tried to turn it off despite being at half battery), then just told me I needed to contact support. Will try again though,

Very, very well put. This is was what I've been thinking while watching this back-and-forth unfold (both this one involving PG and in general over the last few years). In my mind, whether wealth is zero sum or not is irrelevant. The di

After all the discussion yesterday about Product Hunt, I figured this might be interesting to the community here. I launched this at the beginning of the year and it's done fairly well for something without any marketing behind it. For

I appreciate the update you posted, I'll definitely read it. The paper mentioned just stuck in my head and it didn't occur to me to research it in-depth before posting. > I wish I could understand why so many programmers are ea

There was a paper published about exactly this, summarized by Jeff Atwood [1]. Essentially, there appears, according to the authors, that there is a mindset that people either have or don't have that allows them to understand the very

Curious to know how the effects of "stress, arterial stress, vasoconstriction, increased heart rate, and high blood pressure" from Adderall (which I don't take) compare to caffeine and/or nicotine (current and former). A

Totally agree. And not just from a performance perspective, the positive affect on mood in general is very important. Melatonin has helped me greatly in the last year.

I agree, it's uncluttered and refreshingly simple. It's the default Times font that looks bad to my eyes.

At least $100, in my mind. Good point from others RE: other countries ... sorry for being so US-centric.

Not to detract from the tool but ... $56/hour default? That's low for any competent development, let alone iOS.

My $0.02 ... There's nothing wrong with just using jQuery. For many, many applications/projects it's a great tool and does everything you need. What happens as a project/app/site grows is that you add more and more

Would love to see this as well. I know my way around the CLI but not enough to even grok what Docker does. Any good overviews/getting starteds/tutorials out there?

I've been a huge fan of toaster ovens for as long as I've been heating up food and just can't seem to find one that does what it needs to do well. It toasts too slow or it's the wrong size or heats unevenly. Seems like a

This looks fantastic. I was just looking into doing this "manually" with an automated screenshot process for a site I'm refactoring part by part.

If this is what I imagine this to be, you've saved me thousands of hours of development to make something I've wanted/needed for years. Signed up, checking it out now.

I'm a big fan for Vox's daily news summary. They have a great way of giving relevant information in a compact format. What's nice is that they don't just post to their own site, they curate from others as well.

Great advice. To add to this, if you are ostracized for taking time off or trying to adjust your hours to a reasonable amount, that's a good sign that this is not a good place to be in the long term. If it's bad now, it will stay
