Note that the below makes big assumptions as to what the situation looks like. I read a lot between the lines, so take the words below with a grain of salt. I won't sugar coat it: it's a tough situation to be in because you need t

Great job! I wonder if playing this kind of game could be used in an interview setting.

But there are some websites such as https://www.gosection8.com that will let you search section 8 housing. I'm curious where they get their data from. Do you know? Perhaps these sites require the landlord to advertise their

Note that I didn't say they weren't helpful. I was just being put off by the initial "open" state. I don't have an issue with having an icon I can click on to "chat with a person".

First of all, the website looks good and the illustrations (final product) are nice, but a couple of things put me off a bit: First, the chatbot at the bottom right. I know it's common to many websites, and perhaps there are stats that

Is there a public database of section 8 rentals/properties?

Indeed, I did forget SSNHL. Sorry that you were victim of that. At one week after onset you were still in the treatment window, but unfortunately it doesn't always work (and obviously, the sooner the better - but my surgeon told me he&

Protect your hearing before it's too late. We often think that the worse that will happen is that you'll lose a bit of hearing and be hard of hearing when you get older. If that's all you get, consider yourself lucky. What co

(I think I made a similar comment to a similar submission a while back) I suggest this type of interview: Both the interviewer and interviewee get a problem to solve and they work together to solve it. It should be new to both of them, so

Please see my reply in sibling comment. It addresses this.

What you are describing is quite orthogonal to brands: it is simply fraud, ie selling something with specs that you know are bogus. I've seen it called "false advertising" too. That is exactly what a brand is supposed to prot

> So, how will this help with things like fake SD cards? Those are usually sold unbranded. How can an unbranded SD card be fake? Fake with respect to what? A brand brings this value: expectations. If I buy a no-brand item, I'm not s

You are right. I wonder how long it'll take for the production/sales to reach "steady state", ie when the pre-order bubble has been absorbed.

It is already a mass market car. Model 3 is the best selling car in California for the second half of 2018. By best selling, I don't mean in the EV category, I mean above Civic, Accord, Camry, Corolla. See https://cleantechn

If I had all places where memory is allocated under my "jurisdiction", I think this would be a very applicable solution. Unfortunately when calling APIs to process images, some opaque code that you don't see ends up doing all

I wrote a parallel image processing tool (in Swift) that essentially uses Grand Central Dispatch on macOS to process all files in a directory. I hit the problem that GCD would happily let me enqueue tasks for processing, but each task would

Oh I think I understand the parent better now: he is the author of app X, and someone releases X' which is X with bogus libs/ads/etc with the Enterprise Cert. The user of X' reports bugs to him/her as if it was legi

That was my understanding, hence my question. I don't understand how such app can affect another app (which is what the parent was complaining about I think). Also I'm confused as to why my question was downvoted... I'm a dev

Are you building an app X that crashes because of a library installed by app Y? I imagine that installing via Enterprise Certs doesn't remove the sandboxing around Y... Can you please elaborate on what's actually happening?

I didn't see any rule that said that anyone the "trusted circle recommends" ends up being in such trust circle, so I don't see how they could be in a position to exponentially multiply.
