What about the 4% rule (put it in an index fund and hope for an average 7% return, leave 3% for inflation and live off the rest)? I always figured that would work out to $50k per year per mil. Is that naive? Edit: sorry for the ninja edit.

No way, I have a friend that's a junior front end developer with three years experience making $90k. When I do get numbers in emails from recruiters it's 140-170 for a senior role.

Uhh, I'm skeptical. My dogs do exactly that any time they see something on the TV that looks like something they would chase. I suspect that's what is going on here. I doubt the doggy is aware that Mustafa is dead and Simba is now

If you are planning on staying in the bay area for 10 years to save money, why not move some place with a lower COL and buy a house that might appreciate significantly in those ten years? You can make good money in Austin.

Okay, it's crass but let's talk numbers. I'm currently earning $210k/year in Austin, TX. My monthly income is about $12k after taxes, and my rent is $1,400 for three bedroom house 20 minutes from the office (wood floors,

I would argue that you should indeed hoist your data to the highest point, but definitely not your logic. Otherwise you end up with a big mega-component at the top level that contains fragments of business logic for many unrelated features,

Man, why does every single thread about anything remotely related to react devolve into a flamewar about redux? I wish we could all move on from this tired old debate. Everyone is free to use or not to use redux. If your team uses redux and

I started my career as a designer and I agree with you in principle, but this site was really frustrating to browse. I closed it after looking at one photo because I didn't want to wait to see more.

It depends on your customers. If you are building a curated link aggregator for graphic designers, this is an appropriate UI style and may gain you users over a more utilitarian UI. Edit: This is for brochureware that has very little conten

My favorite monitor is my 42.5" Dell ultrasharp. The screen real estate is amazing, but it has old school 100% scaling. I would absolutely love the same panel dimensions with twice the number of pixels.

Really? The most I've ever had was $10k with a one year clawback clause, and the 45% bonus tax left me feeling like I had trapped myself in a job I didn't like for a measly $5k.

Ah, I see. I use a customized redux logger that shows the before/after state and the action payload. That is what I've always used for trying to diagnose bugs so I've never found a reason to use the time travel tools.
