Yes, exactly! It's such a shame that people think "more efficient process" means "we'll ship more lines of code" when really it is all about getting to the _correct solution_ more quickly.

One of the big problems I have with this (and with mining, in general) is that it's attempting to create value by simply wasting electricity . Come on, we should not be spending CPU cycles just for the sake of spending CPU cycles...

Flask would be more comparable to RoR than to Angular, since it is principally for backend work. (You can do server-side-rendered front-end stuff with it, with templates, but I choose not to -- currently working with Flask for my backend AP

That's another advantage! If they hadn't given you the code test, maybe you wouldn't have found out you didn't want to work with them as quickly :-)

At my last job, I was hire #3 and skipped the entire interview process (had worked with my boss for a couple of years already, so that was interview enough). As we ramped up the staff to 20+ we added rigorous interviews until it got to the

In the US and Canada, apparently you can also call 311 for non-emergency calls (whereas 911 is for emergencies).

While it's easy to call emergency services by 911, it's more difficult to call, say, the local sheriff's office for something that's not an emergency especially when you're traveling. An app could help solve that an

A few quick comments: 1. It would be nice to be able to use arrow keys to move through the courses. Even when I have my mouse, I prefer to use my keyboard for this. 2. Related, it would be nice to have the browser's back/forward w

I think that in this case, it's fair to compare the number of people who have a disability instead of the amount of browsing they do, because it speaks to the potential market. Suppose that there was no technology to help blind people

This is really cool! Does anyone know if there are similar datasets for other sports out there? Even less clean datasets, as long as they have permissive licensing to allow sanitation and republication.

The more useful feature is being able to check whether it's shut or open, and being able to shut it remotely. Imagine that you're 30 minutes from home, driving to work, and panic -- did you shut it or not? Now you can check and ca

The problem with this is that it limits elected officials to only be already wealthy, because then they can go without a good paycheck. High salaries are important to letting the common person into office (although there are plenty of OTHER

Two bedrooms does not imply two residents, and certainly not "at least two." Perhaps the title could be improved (by stating "to afford a two-bedroom apartment"). One cool thing about putting it in $/hour like this
