Truly shocking. I've mildly enjoyed Vines (not so much the community), and I love the Twitter platform. But now I have no faith in the company or the direction they are trying to find. Yikes.

It is scary if this is how Google hires engineering directors. Passing this test would select all the bad candidates! Answers to many technical solutions are "it depends". If you have a director that "knows" the right an

It took less than 20 minutes for me to change over a decently large project. The builds on the CI server increased by about 25 seconds by switching from npm install to yarn install. It was definitely worth it for me.

This is great! I'm in the very early stages [0] of creating a framework to automate and control physical instruments through hardware & software. Never thought voice would be possible, I'll have to check out integrating this!

It's more complicated than that. Artists benefit greatly from repeat customers, so it's to their (and their label's) advantage to expose as many people as possible to their product. This will help drive future profits through

Interesting project! I had a similar idea- "My Social Death". When you died, it would post to your Facebook, Twitter, etc. Thought of it when a few friends died and I saw many others changing their profile pictures and continuing

First thing I checked was days until Elon's Mars talk next Tuesday, since that's what I'm counting down to. So count one vote to add that event! http://www.spacex.com/mars

Fair enough. My only experience with Ruby was to get Jekyll running so it wasn't as familiar to me, but the community and support is a pretty strong point.

I looked at it before but I'm not sure why I moved on, it does seem to fit really well. Thanks!

OT: I like Jekyll for blogs, but I'm looking for something simpler to better fit a simple use case. I want to generate static HTML files, the simplest example being a 5 page website that uses the same header and footer template across

Alternate title: 50% of smartphone users continue to click "X" when prompted to install a specific app when visiting a website. Is it too much to hope that companies get the hint and fully embrace the mobile web?

For those of you that write in JS (and not TypeScript), do you use "void 0" instead of "undefined"? I use undefined and would hate to switch to void 0, since it's less clear and unnecessary thanks to tools like JSHi

I find async/await in C# to be super useful, and fairly addictive once you start using it. Say you want to do three independent things in a function. How would you run them in parallel without async? Delegates, background workers, or t

Are bug bounty programs common in open source? All the big ones off the top of my head are for production systems. Granted the bug may be in an open source piece of a deployed system. Seems a very bold move to offer this for source code tha

I would learn ASP.NET Core. It's a significant design shift that has some growing pains for the community but will be a big improvement. I like Core because it's easier to build a minimal website (without all the bloat that comes

Very cool! Couldn't find a way to generate a link to a direct spot on the map, but if you go to Kennedy Space Center you can see the shuttle external fuel tank and booster rockets on the pad (no shuttle though).

Nice, so really browsers and servers can implement it independently. Seems elegant, I like that browsers can advertise multiple compression formats. Thanks for the info!

I'm a complete dunce when it comes to compression and how it fits in the industry, so help me out here. Say that everyone accepts that Zstandard is amazing and we should start using it. What would the adoption process look like? I unde
