   Agreed, and it goes beyond that. We have a pretty poor reputation when it comes to dating (as heterosexual/bi men). Obviously, it's not "real" - a lot of us end up married or in relationships, but of all of the high payi

   This is probably the best way to keep "motivation" up... and why I don't even start side projects. All of my "itches" can be scratched with existing products.

   I can't speak for the NBA or Navy, but it's not true for RC. I was a pretty meh developer when I got in 2016. Technical questions in the interviews are a magnitude simpler than any job interview I've ever had. Most people don

   Lol. I had a Zune HD. Opening the calculator app took half a minute... and that was pretty much the only app available. It was a cool device but there’s no surprise it got trampled by iPod Touch.

   Is this before or after Facebook let a genocide in Myanmar be planned in their platform?

   Even if it results in groups like anti-vaxers and anti-masks wearers?

    Facebook is where the antivax/5G/Bill Gates/anti-mask/etc movements flourished so it seems people don't care about anonymity any more.

    I've been happy with Wipr on macOS and 1Blocker on iOS for years. In fact I think you can just use 1Blocker in both platforms now. Neither is as "good" as uBlock Origin but I don't really care.

    Your first sentence and its tone were unnecessary and pretty much rendered the rest of the comment pointless. Why even include the comparison?

    We can't even suggest people wear masks without them saying we're taking their freedom away. Not way we're forcing people to save money.

    If you're a front-end only developer not only do you use the same hammer (big framework) for all nails, the use of that hammer is what gives you job security and satisfaction. If companies switched to using old fashioned server-rendere

    I like Apple products too. I listen to multiple podcasts that are pretty much Apple News/commentary. I like their privacy stance, design, etc. Even products I have no use for like the watch and iPad Pros blow my mind with their use cas

    There’s an exponentially growing recruiting, training, and hiring industry based on developers who only know how to write fat JS frontends. I think everyone has probably experienced high growth in their company’s frontend team. Many develop

    GitHub has had its ICE controversy for a while now (if not years). Honestly, the leadership should've expected this.

    Yes. Sometimes new terms come in later? Not really surprising. I was getting dopamine hits on 4chan and GameFAQs in 2005 when I was 12. I'd call it social media.

    This Trump stuff is a red herring. I'd be more curious what people think about Facebook letting the anti-vax movement run wild and helping violence in Myanmar.

    It’s June. I don’t know about SF but in NYC most leases expire in June or July. A lot of companies aren’t ending WFH till 2021 or fall. Plenty of young people are not renewing their lease and staying with their family outside the city or st

    I was happy my local pizza place set up their own ordering system so I could stop using Slice and the rest. These "growth hacks" are just another example of our awful startup/VC model.
