While the JavaScript ecosystem is on the volatile side, learning new tools and frameworks every few years is just part of our job. Only in very boring tech jobs would you only have to learn new things maybe once every 5 years. I wouldn&#x27

Ever heard of a bar of a club? Still a very good way to meet potential partners. Also people date people they meet in activities all the time - close friend of mine met her partner in her martial arts class.

A lot of companies aren't set up for long term existence. They want an acquisition in the next 5-10 years.

Programmers have some say but ultimately it comes from above. The truth is, most programmer would rather add this feature and collect their high salary than rock the boat.

It’s a law of the universe that any forum filled with tech nerds makes apple product discussion a waste of time.

I’ve never thought of charging my AirPods or the case outside of plugging the case for half an hour once a week. I don’t even check the battery percentage.

I use to think this way then I started working in the real world with developers who coded and documented work code cleanly but had messy GitHub profiles especially because until recently private repos were not free. A lot of people don&#x2

In the past year we grew our team from 6 to almost 30 and counting. About 10 of those 30 are senior engineers (between 8-15 years of experience). So far everyone's been very skilled and great to work with. We work in GitHub, and of tho

There's no trick - just Apple being better at this than the competition.

I'd be more likely to consider Spotify an underdog if they weren't a VC-fueled, still-not-profitable startup.

Sleep better, regular exercise, learn the skill of focusing on a single task with no distractions for at least 45 mins. Eat your frog every morning - i.e. do your most difficult task first. Most of your questions can be answered with the us

Yep. One of our presidents was Japanese-Peruvian, and I went to school in Peru with a few people with Japanese first and last names.

Heh. I have a very Hispanic name but I am white/European. This is fairly common where I am originally from and even more in other places. I've definitely gotten weird looks when I go from phone screen -> in person interview. Un

I enjoy using IG but I don’t follow many real people. I follow organizations, brands, etc. I like seeing their new stuff as well as any news such as sales, new releases, etc. I follow photographers and artists. It’s essentially a feed of st

Sure. And sorry if I sounded rough in my comment... if you're happy with Duolingo it's fine. I put in an hour every day towards Japanese (with a full time job + life on top) so I know I'm in a privileged position when it come

Teams like the React team get paid well, are "separated" from the actual product, and work on something that means a lot to them.

I find that super hard to believe... can you read an article from https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/easy/ with ease, aside from vocab? I quit Duolingo for Japanese because it was super slow and boring. I went through a

No one changes their mind about their choice of stack, languahe, etc. Let alone the many threads that devolve into discussion about how to raise children or something. I’ve been here for years and I’ve awent the exact same arguments and thr

Agree but pomodoro is a good way to get into DW. The truth is most of us are actually not able to focus on a single task for an hour or two. There’s such a thing as an attention muscle. Pomodoro helps with that by starting at 25 mins with a

Family assistance is more than just cash though. If my mother helps me look after the kids twice a week for free, that frees up hours I could use to "get ahead" in life (study, prep for interviews). Should that not be allowed?

I'm not Asian American so take this with a grain of salt, but from what I see in my friends it is NOT uncommon for Asian American parents to have a significant presence in their child's finances particularly when it comes to purch

If I am 15 mins "late" to work nothing happens. I will not even get less work done that day. People might not even notice. I worked at Target in the fast food restaurant some years ago. If I was late to that, there was simply no

It's a data point you should consider, particularly if baby sitting, nannies, etc. are very expensive in your area. People underestimate how much help one needs in raising kids because a few decades ago the mom would either not work or

The bus factor of Elm is pretty bad compared to more "open" projects with RFCs, a dozen or so contributors, etc. In some ways it still feels like someone's private project. The problem with having a bus factor of 1 is that no

> Women in Korea are not treated poorly. Do you know this for sure? Developed East Asian countries are some of the worst in terms of work equality for women, particularly if they want to have children. Not a good example to use.

It's more likely that most of the "critical thinkers" you speak of write JavaScript for money everyday. Even on HN the amount of JS blockers is tiny but it seems higher because they always have to mention they block JS.
