While I can't comment on Travis CI, Gitlab from what I understand, used to hire a 3rd party company that would perform research (based on cost of living, taxes etc.) to gauge your salary (across different regions). That said, what&#x27

Just out of curiosity - what would be the adverse effects of being on anti-depressants all your life? Are there any side effects that negatively effect you if you use it in medical doses?

What sort of skills would come in use for such a position? I'm a Software Engineer (graduated in 2016) and considering a full time MBA (2 yrs) next year. This sounds like something I'd enjoy - just wanted to get more info from som

and is that so bad? As in, this is like how our parents used to say "you are glued to the TV" and that's exactly what TV channels wanted...to sell your attention.

What's wrong with those microwavable stuff (like noodles, and others)? I mean it's not healthy, but if it's once in a while, it's cheaper and imo tastes better!

And that is why they succeeded imo. Because Facebook bought Whatsapp for it's 1 Billion users, and Whatsapp would never have hit that mark had it not been for the fact that they focused on market outside the US (where cheaper phones wi

So TLDR: 1. We want to hire experienced programmers for 500k 2. We don't want to train junior programmers to become senior programmers because they'll leave for BigCo. 3. BigCo. with bigger budgets are stealing such senior employ

oh I totally agree, almost all those apps don't fit in with Gnome or even Unity (almost all electron apps feel out of place). But imo, it helps make life slightly easy!

I used to use linux desktop since 2012(ish) and I remember the time when most of my apps were Windows and Mac only! As a broke university student, I could not afford to upgrade to a Mac just to use some tools! Electron has made me forget th

I had worked with ~2 TB of data in CouchDB (a few thousand endpoint calls / sec) for my capstone project at University and I thought I had experience, but reading these comments, I realized how much less experience I really have.

Maybe you don't hang out with the kind of crowd that thinks like that, but the number of times, I've been requested to do commit crimes - form classic fraud and insider trading all the way to straight up hacking is insane. Funny e

Thank you! This is extremely useful! I've always wanted to break into Go, but pointers scare me after my experience in C in University. While I got the usefulness and it's functions (and usage), it was not something I felt comfort

I thought it was based on the % you traded? So for example, if I was using an 100k account to trade, I had another 100k of leverage no?

If I were to host this myself, I'd still need a static IP that had a good reputation. GCP and Azure both mention that we should not be hosting mail servers on their platforms (rather, they all suggest we setup mail servers + relays to

quick question about preemption instances: if I were to launch an instance of Kubernetes (via container engine) with such VMs, would it have an issue? (as in, if I had more load, more preemptible vms would be provisioned automatically based

I've used nodeJS at 3 of the past 4 startups I've worked at (currently using PHP). I had a hand in choosing it at all those 3 places and my main reasons boiled down to: 1. most devs know JS (so it's easier to hire & onboa

I don't get this train of thought...Why minorities? should it not be - hire the best for the job? (and if you don't get the best, then you are not paying well enough?) Not trying to be sarcastic, just wanted to know a more in-dept

One thing that was awesome about Uber, was that you could go into a city internationally and just use one app (instead of installing new apps every city or multiple apps for one city!) The taxi game is becoming more like the Social Media ga
