Right now I am freelancing 20 hours a week. I've found it to be incredibly rewarding, as I have enough energy to sit down and code for 4 hours a day and then go home and read, go to the gym/library, watch a movie, or hang out with

They just started doing half batches recently, which are only 6 weeks. Some employers are actually OK with this, given the assumption that you come back as a stronger (and maybe even nicer) programmer.

I spend $650, splitting a 700 sqft 1 bedroom in center city Philadelphia. I spent exactly twice that for a similar setup in NYC, and I spent $2500 for a 200 sqft studio in SF (basically a walk-in closet). What about you?

What do you mean you miss it? It still is around. I use it all the time.

There are a couple companies tackling this problem. Ripple uses peas and is on shelves now - I tried it and it was pretty good, better than soymilk but not as good as real milk. What I'm really excited for is when milk is being produce

Great read. I'm dissappointing that this thread has devolved to HN cliches (arguing about Kool Aid and pg's essays) and isn't focussing on the very well written and inter sting content of this piece. Also, I wish there was a

I just mean that over the course of building vanilla JavaScript applications, people often add layer of functionality that are implemented worse than libraries, are harder to maintain, or are not as compatible. Like yes, I could build my ow

Svelte is actually one of my top choices! I didn't include it by accident but I love the concept.

Riot seems quite similar to Vue, and at half the size is pretty appealing. Have you used it in production before?

by levthedev 10y ago
Yes, I am definitely considering just using plain Javascript. I just have a fear of maintaining plain Javascript applications - the hacks just seem to build up. Then again, maybe I should just put the time in to make a well architecture and

I need a footprint that works well with mobile devices, slow internet connections, etc. Also, I prefer smaller frameworks as they have less cognitive load - I usually am more able to read the source code, understand the API, and so on.

Wow, these are very interesting libraries. I hadn't heard of either before today but they both look similar to what I am trying to find. Have you used either of them? I wonder if anyone uses them in production.

I love Vue and have used it before, but I would like to use an even smaller library if possible. I believe Inferno is 9kb and Preact is 3kb, so Vue isn't that far off, but I still would like to hear people's opinions on the truly

I'm pretty disappointed in this blog post. Besides the weird privacy violations that Justin committed in making this post, it also baffles me that he thinks someone 'stole' his startup idea. You can't steal something tha
