That's because they are not selling those very pictures to anyone who'll pay. They (facebook) are the middle men - people who have money come to them to sell their product, and facebook knows who to show those products too. your f

What I'd like to see - is the employee breakdown. How many are working on the acutal product/engineering? I work for a startup (that was bootstrapped I believe) and our sales team is almost half the company (we are just under 100

Just out of curiosity: If you decide to use Java (or any other languages that run on JVM), are their 3rd party libraries as "nice" (read: as many) as npm?

A friend of mine has a maxed out MBP and while he claims it's not a gimmick, he does not use it often. It's useful at times (especially as they have bigger buttons for stuff like debugging etc.) But all in all....if he had a choic

HN has an awesome community so I generally read more. I start of with the top ones (and their branches) and agressively use the (-), and then follow down. If it's something I'm really interested about, I check back in ~12 hours to

A family member used to be a Safety Engineer for ONGC and ADNOC. He had visited oil rigs for quite a bit early during his career and even back (1990s) then, most modern rigs were automated. He used to tell me stories about how close shit wo

Everyone is discussing about how autonomous cars will react to various situations. However, the real question is - once we have walled gardens, who'll control it - the manufacturers or the government? By that I mean, all automated cars

This "startup" is based in Vancouver. And, I've got a feeling they'll figure it out when they have bugs, or ask her to fix bugs instead of adding standalone features. (Unless she sends over the entire repo to the person

A few friends of mine did exactly the same. They still have their jobs (btw, both are Software Engineers). 1. He had 0 idea of coding, or why something was done - basically copy paste from github/stackoverflow and call it a day. 2. She

Snap has had some weird issues in the past! and it does leave behind files every now and then (especially if you look into your .config folder I think).

In university, one of my projects in Operating Systems was to build a file system. I'd recommend anyone to do the same! It does not have to be anything magical...just try to build a basic program that can emulate a file system (read fi

Docker apps is a thing I've been dreaming of for a while. When I was in university, I used to love testing new software but I hated the fact that it left stuff behind after un-installs. So I was on the other extreme and tried to only i

Atleast for Software Engineers/ CS Majors...what was your out of school loan? (I'm curious - I'm a 2016 SE grad from Canada, and it cost me ~70k total - which includes tuition, dorms etc.). I didn't go to UW or UofT, but

I personally use it to keep up with new tools that companies might use or are becoming popular (always good to have an eye to know what's up). I don't use it when I want to start a project and I'm looking for tools. This is a

Knowledge - yes it can be gained in a year. Experience - nope nope nope nope nope! I'm sure everyone here can relate too - What you learnt in university was not as useful as real life experience (even when working on your own side proj

This is great! But it's fairly lacking in some features. Any word on release of API docs so devs can integrate their workflow into it?

if you use TS, you don't really need Babel at all. However, if you don't (I used TS, it was great, but I had some weird issues so I moved back to JS), Babel is awesome! I just use Babel (with gulp - backend or webpack - frontend)
