> "you can love your country and hate your government" Reminds me of Russia very much. Self-proclaimed "patriots" standard response to any critics of government is "you just hate everything Russian".

It doesn't work for me either. I had only one contact from your site. I'm in the Bay Area and response from Hired from local companies is an order of magnitude better than from Work@startup. Dunno why.

I learned about Paw and decided to try it. My API is based on Swagger (2.0) and Postman is not a very good friend of it. Paw seems to be clean and while UX is kinda sorta sometimes clunky, I see how it could be better than Postman. But, se

The part about an initiative to look up visitors phones and social media is BS. This measure was introduced in June last year when the president wasn't Trump. Went into effect in December, when Trump already won but had no authority. O

I managed to die in about 15 seconds, while my mom bent to fasten the shoe for my little sis. I was standing right in front of her and when she bent down I just made a few steps forward, that was enough.

I just posted my this weekend project here :-) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12490297 But it's not "nicer" by any means, but much more private. Also, caters to control freaks.

I walked away from Elm still being very enthusiastic about it and watching its progress. I started coming to Elm hackathons in 2014, did a few helloworlds of increasing complexity, eventually tried to write a portion of my app in Elm; ther

Well, Fira Code, Monoid and Hasklig are quite popular fonts. I personally like arrows and fat arrows, they're so much better than their "composite" versions ( <- -> <= and =>), especially in some monospace fonts w

If I steal $200 worth of booze from the store they will spend thousands if not tens of thousand to prosecute me. Using this logic they should just take my apology and let me go with the booze.

I'd suggest a longer (1 hour) but much more correct explanation. It doesn't use math beyond high (or even may be middle) school. Video, unfortunately. https://youtu.be/ZhuHCtR3xq8
