I used to be so into specs and customizing my phone until I got an iPhone. I had thought I'm going to feel like a caveman using some phone made for dummys, but honestly the phone just works. At the end of the day why was I installing a

I don't mean this to be mean, but do people really believe these active user counts at face value? I personally see these numbers and assume half are bots or controlled marketing accounts to boost viewers or spam comments. Just going o

Site no loading on my phone. Just a white screen with a green comment button. That’s really cool though that you’re going to build something like that, wish you all the best!

I hope I can scale my company to the point we need to use aws or equivalent offerings. Currently just using VMs, managed database, and services like firebase.

Really, really dumb question. I've seen a lot of node/python/etc serverless offerings. Is there something where you just provide a binary and its executed each time? For example, I write a simple single responsibility piece o

Thinking about money and its hypothetical worth in X years is a waste of mind resources, at least for me. Instead, I'm going to just save 20-25% and spend the rest on being happy. If things go south, so what? I've got an expiry da

I don't think it stopped being cool. If you want to do something cool, level yourself up and start a company or build a product that is cool. Otherwise you can just accept 200k+ offers and enjoy hobbies/spend time with family, and

I think from a politics standpoint yeah I’m kind of a doomer. I identify as liberal but the people running on liberal platform are really dumb and their opponents are insane/dumb in other ways. There’s no good options to vote for. Idk

I feel like these trends are waves and we are currently in the down trend. I think we’ll see a bigger uptrend once the economy stabilizes again. We are in a multi prong proxy battle between energy sources and work/life shift. Once peop

Imo it isn’t worth it. My family left India for a better life because having no running water and spotty electricity is an awful living experience. But the worst part is going outside and seeing that 80% of the people are doing worse than y

I think Electron/crossplatform tools are great at very early stages in order to test whether the product can work. You can quickly put together a working cross platform application to start testing features. I am a noob at startups (wo

For your case sure, you only deal with iOS 1% of the time. For me it is 50%.

Team I'm on obsesses with 100% unit test coverage which means that it takes 3-5x as long to ship a feature while engineers write tests that are: 1) Almost always better to be part of integration test 2) Offer no real ROI because the fr

While I watched or read dystopian sci fi horrified at the twisted scenarios presented, these tech nerds on the other hand were furiously driven to be the villains in the story. I hope I'm wrong, but at least that is how it feels from t

I wish I could do this but I build mobile apps in addition to any backend stuff. Kinda need to be on an apple for making iOS apps.

Maybe it’s a numbers game. I’ve met maybe two people in my life who rise late who actually seem to get stuff done, compared to at least a dozen or more examples of early risers who are successful. I am not a morning person but I’ve trained

Seriously I feel like at least 50% of “users” are actually bots whether on Reddit or Facebook or whatever but they get listed as MAU lol

When I see stuff like that, I instantly take the company less seriously or ignore them unless the person in charge is someone eccentric like Elon. At least he is capable of running his company in a ruthlessly effective way even with wonky t

Thanks! I just checked out opencagedata and saw that the reverse geocoding gives me some out of date records. It worked for a few of my tests, but the rest were not as accurate. I'm getting the latlng from Google poi marker (using goog

That’s dumb. I work with contractors who I consider not only my team mates (we work on the same shit) but also my friends. We play games together after work sometimes and chat once in a while on zoom. They give demos, leadership gives them

Dumb question. I’m building little social apps, and I’m hosting stuff in GCP or AWS. I have a few old computers that are still kinda beefy (quad cores and a 6-core, 16+ Gb ram, some old but still working 3TB hdd). Would it be stupid to run

Just looked at CDC website it says fewer than 20%. Suburbs have been the only place where I’ve seen lots of yellow busses because everything is so spread out. Idk where that dude got his numbers, go to any city in the USA and you'll se

My parents were poor immigrants (mom couldn’t work legally due to immigration status), But yeah I’m glad I had other friends from my apartment complex that I could walk to school with. You ever been to inner city? That’s probably where that
