Yeah honestly I was surprised too... it was a while ago, so I don't recall if I asked for the reason, or if they volunteered it. Like I said, I personally see it as dodging a bullet. I probably didn't want to work in that kind of

Yeah, it is, but honestly what am I gonna do about it? :/ I suppose I could've reported them to... somebody? Sue them for a job I didn't even really want? In retrospect I probably should've left a bad review on Glassdoor

During my last job hunt a little over three years ago, I encountered what I think was some subtle ageism or at least discrimination based on family status (lots of questions about my family life when interviewed by the CTO and CEO, ultimate

I'm not even close to an expert on economics, either... but I think what you're describing sounds similar to what's called "Modern Monetary Theory" or MMT. If I understand the very basic gist of MMT correctly, it&#x

I still think about the quote I once heard around that era... "Made with Bootstrap" is the "ft. Pitbull" of web design.

At my current employer, everyone's salaries (and the number of options they've been awarded) are in a Google spreadsheet that's viewable by everyone in the company. It's actually kinda cool to have such transparency and

Actually I've been doing a bit of exactly that... 1. I've been writing a Forth interpreter on the side for fun. 2. I'm learning how to distill liquor. :)

for me they feed each other in a sinister feedback loop... burnout makes me incapable of doing my job, which makes me feel worthless, which makes me feel depressed, which makes me unable to do anything, which makes me more incapable of doin

Sorry for my ignorance on this matter, but why do safe harbor provisions not apply to the Internet Archive? Shouldn't they have been served a DMCA takedown request bu the publishers, and then been in violation of those rules and paid t

I would definitely consider moving to Linux for my next laptop - unfortunately I do a decent amount of iOS development, which I realize isn't impossible to do on Linux, but I can't imagine it'd be worth the hassle. :/

Worth noting that this isn't all ANSI-SQL... e.g. I'm pretty sure WITH is a Postgres thing?

I used to work (sort of) in this space. A lot of the functionality that companies want to tie to their ODB hardware is getting rolled into the cars themselves by the auto manufacturers and app platforms like CarPlay and Android Auto. Compan

I wonder if a curated, moderated Amazon could work? Probably wouldn't scale very well, but perhaps if there were more live humans involved in the process of choosing which items were available for purchase, it'd work a little bett

Sounds a bit like Tettra? https://tettra.com/ Our company uses Quip for this sort of use case, but that's not really the same thing as what you're asking for.

I wrote an open-source cross platform app entirely in XUL + Javascript once and it was an awful experience - incredibly hard to debug and get all the bindings working right. Congrats to the Mozilla team on what has to be a very satisfying i

It might be a bit difficult (but not impossible) to do that... the APK you download is not the APK that the developer uploads to the Play store. Usually, developers upload a "bundle," and then Google optimizes it by stripping out

I've been using an eyeTV on an old MacBook Pro for this functionality but the support for it has gotten terrible since it was sold by Elgato to a Geniatech. I'll have to check this out - too bad it's not compatible w/ th

If you're only using a small subset of FontAwesome (as I suspect many people do), I'd imagine at some point it'd make a lot of sense to use data-uri's to effectively embed them directly in an existing request, which woul
