Nit, but I think that 24.8% is a subset of the 54.3%, not additive - i.e. “family members” are included in the category of “people you know.” (Confirmed with the pie chart in your first link.)

This has been roughly my experience and reaction on PC as well. Save and load is annoying but not a blocker at 5-10 seconds, but I would probably be pretty miserable at 3-5 minutes per restart.

I’ll point folks over to https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmyjoystick/ (Like “tip of my tongue,” but for games.) Just a solid community helping people find long-lost games.

+1 for Summoning Salt. I especially liked his Mario Kart Wii video, where he explains the mechanics of the lap counting system in detail.

I currently have this symptom. I ordered extremely spicy Thai food last week. I could feel the heat, but not taste anything at all. After about 4 days, I regained some ability to differentiate between salty/sour/sweet, but it’s be

Tried it out for a couple hours today! A quick experience report: - Collaborative editing was very solid, even with one of us using vim extensions and the other one not. (This has caused me some pain in Screen.so in particular.) - The

I was a big fan of Floobits a few years back. Tuple and Screen.so are great, but we have devs split between VSCode, vim 8, and Neovim, with different configurations. I would definitely pay for cross-editor collaboration that works. I’ll giv

I think it’s more that recruiting is a sales job, often with a commission attached to it. I wouldn’t say that Amazon is “desperate for business,” but they still emailed me every few weeks about moving our business into AWS.

I often comment on my own PRs to explain alternatives or tradeoffs I considered. These aren't necessarily worth capturing in permanent documentation or TODOs, but can share knowledge or build confidence that I've considered variou

Most companies define their process as something like Phone Screen (recruiter) -> Technical Screen (engineer via phone or take-home project) -> On-Site (mix of culture + tech). Triplebyte helps you skip those first two steps. I agree

I like it - great work! I like your design choices here. Did you use an off-the-shelf theme, a toolkit like Bootstrap/Tailwind, or is it all custom?

Not the parent, but as a hiring manager I would guess that you can implement UIs, make API calls, manage client-side data, work with a type system, etc. Those seem like pretty useful skills in modern client-side web development. If you woul

I still spend time in Plug.dj on a regular basis. It doesn't have the population or momentum of Turntable, but there's still something magical about social music.

I think they thought it was an acronym, but the commenter just meant "pro," i.e. a dev or designer.

From what I could gather from this talk at Strangeloop, RDL seems like an evolution or expansion of Diamondback: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=buY54I7mEjA (See ~21:30ish for discussion of the various attempts along the way.

I have found a large LinkedIn network to be useful for finding customer interviews for startup ideas. There are a lot of people that I am connected to enough that an intro from them beats a cold email. I often will find a company that seems

Maybe you're just using the wrong heuristic for Twitter? I never follow more than 100 people and periodically cull my list down to that if I go over. My goal is primarily to follow interesting people, especially other local programmers

Is Dropbox Paper planning integrations with third parties? I can already do basic collaborative editing in Google Docs, and it sounds like Paper is similar to that. The killer feature for me (when shipped) is being able to drop in native re

According to the formatting guide under the ? in the top-right corner, JavaScript is ```js instead of ```javascript. A few other languages worked as well (Ruby, C, Java, Scheme), although I couldn't figure out Clojure. Would be nice to
