That would be great if they could provide FTP info so we could finally go full circle and get back to uploading our websites with an FTP Client!

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this feeling. I get that it's producing more views and you need to play the youtube game, but I miss a lot of content just because I decide NOT to click out of principle.

Algorithms in a nutshell by George T. Heineman helped me a lot. It's not too dense so it's easy to read, just enough to learn and understand how an algorithm works.

I used to work at Uber's Amsterdam office at a time where the remote nature of the office (from SF HQ) was a struggle for some teams because of strong dependencies on teams located at SF HQ. Sid came to the office and talked to us abou

no you're fine without a filled github account. most engineers don't write code during their free time and, like you, work in private repos for their corporate job.

Sorry if this was not clear, but I did not say you have to use credit cards.

They are not much of a thing in France either.

This forces people to do things they may not be interested in otherwise, such as keeping multiple credit cards, etc. on which banks make money.

That shows well how the credit system is so broken. Your creditor decides to close your account for a reason that is absolutely out of your control, and _your_ credit score gets impacted negatively.

What I've seen is generally the conversion happens once for the whole package, when you sign. So if the stock grows during your vesting period, the value increases (goes both way obviously). I think here they are mentioning value based

Just wanna say that I'm a huge fan of Kenji. His Youtube channel is simple, interesting and the opposite of snob. A true food passionate that is doing whatever he can to go against gate keeping. He's been inspiring me to cook more

I think this is pretty much what FTX.com is doing? It's trading derivative contracts on stocks; so if I understand correctly you can trade stocks (or even not-public companies) without the actual stock ownership.

Everything I see from Peter Norvig is just always so incredibly well written and coded. I'd love to know what it's like to work for him. Every year looking at his solutions for advent of code [0] brings just so much learnings. Str

Very surprised to see some arguments in the article saying lumber only make 4% of construction prices. I'd love to know what type of construction they're looking at. We're currently in the process of building a house and curr

There are a lot of homeless and SF is indeed in shit hole in a lot of areas, but I don't understand people who say they wouldn't visit because it's not safe or whatever. Looking at crime rate rankings [0], SF is pretty low co

the GME community was long GME, against the shortsellers. So if he did bet against the shortsellers, no it's no ironic.

I think smart contracts are meant to automate the work behind contracts/agreements, but if someone hacks you, well, they did something illegal and you can sue?

So.. no pictures of the whale nursing. Is NatGeo trying to clickbait us to buy the print for the picture?

Ah interesting, I've never used Tile so I didn't know it had such a limited range.

by jypepin 5y ago
This is directly competing with Tile[0] which you can buy 2 for 39.99. I guess the integration with Find My app would be pretty convenient but probably not worth the price difference? [0] https://www.thetileapp.com/en-us&#x2

I remember when I first discovered the concept of pattern matching, I tried to find a way to "hack" the switch statement in js to make it work like pattern matching. The switch(true) format was the closest I got to it, which I per

I haven't seen anyone mention freelancing, but sounds like a good solution for you. From my experience there are 2 approaches to freelancing. 1. work hard and hustle, get larger and larger contracts and eventually make a lot of money (

I never used bitpay but I don't think it's their fault to have to request passport verification. As a money transmitter they are required to answer to KYC rules, which includes passport or other docs verification to ensure you are
