As a doctor in a third-world country, do you have any needs that could be solved by a simple web app? I'd be happy to build it if it could be of use to you and you can sell it to local medical practices.

"Hi, I'm building <X> and I'm trying to understand the industry's pain points better. Would <solution> be helpful? Is there something else that would be useful to your business?" Something like that.

Well since you're already writing tests, I think the X-factor here might just be time + practice. Perhaps you could ask to try pair programming for a while to improve your skill? Sometimes it's helpful to observe how others appr

Interesting and roughly in-line with what I've read elsewhere. One must note, however, that performance on a couple of benchmarks does not generalize to all problems. Still - perfect is the enemy of good, and it may be that when look

I recently advised a friend who was building a web app in java and after launch he found the site would go down periodically. As the site grew it eventually started going down several times a day. Took weeks for him to find the memory lea

The other issue is that a certificate-based model of trust can be wielded by governments to censor the internet. Unsecure http is essential to the free flow of information. Let's get the right solution before we force everyone to use i

CO2 is such a small proportion of the atmosphere that I have a hard time imagining its active mechanism for cognitive impairment is the displacement of oxygen. It seems you would have to scrub the CO2. Luckily, the easiest way to do this

I have to point out that many if not most franchisees most own or lease the property independently of the parent company. Some parent companies own the property but most don't.

Honestly, Shopify is probably your best bet, although they charge the seller about 2.9% of sales IIRC.

I've been using Firefox on Fedora for both Zoom and Hangouts for at least two years. No problems. Slack, on the other hand, can go to hell.

I'm having trouble understanding the use case here. If someone submits a pull request, don't I have to review that in a dev environment? Same for downloading / trying out a project. What is the utility of having access via

One should be seeking out primary resources and reviewing facts independently for any non-trivial bit of news. In my experience when doing one's own research into an article you'll find that approximately 75%+ of articles contain

In order to prevent this I bevel my week. M, T, Th I set my alarm for an hour earlier. W and F I set my alarm for the latest I can reasonably wake up and still make it to work on time if there is a minor hiccup. It prevents me from getti

Remarkably similar experience. I worked as a bag boy at a grocery store many years ago. The guy who hired me told me he strongly encourages everyone to join the union and I didn't realize at the time it was an implicit threat. After

No, I mean it literally ranks nearly everyone as burned out. As an experiment I chose the second-to-lowest burnout score for every question but one (for which I chose the lowest score). My risk of burnout was rated as high. That's ri

I think the rising sense of division is caused by social networking sites that are increasingly interest-based or focused on small communities. When every interaction is focused around people who already agree with you, it begins to feel l
