Your book was close to perfect I think in terms of learning the core language, it was very easy to read front to back. Most programming books tend to fall prey to being categorically "project" based which I hate. To be honest ther

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I stopped making even close term plans/goals a few months ago because I was obsessively over planing. After a few months of this strategy I can say I'm better off than I was. Here's anoth

Good advice. My dad has a barely used thinkpad he wanted me to buy because he bought it for stock trading but his wife forced him to give that hobby up. But it’s heavier than a lead brick.

To be honest the new MacBook Air is the model I was considering the most, mostly due to its pricing, but also because I used to own a 11’ inch low end model years ago and it was honestly the “little laptop that could”, ha.

OpenBSD is admirable in that it’s conservative and just works compared to what you see in some but not all linux distros. However, is package management truly as sublime as you mention compared to what you would find in Linux—such as apt? A

I know, really. Many of these bullet points even I learned after becoming a junior developer. I was just reflecting on my experience training junior developers this past year and assuming we’re talking about fullstack PHP devs, most if not

I guess HN is taking what I listed that way, ha. I really just meant that things have changed since the old days. This list is just an outline, certainly not all of the skills are required.

Hi, I was just looking for a good iPadOS bookmark app last night, so I was surprised to see this. I downloaded your app but I have a question: do I have to connect/login to pinboard in order to create a new bookmark? I tried clicking “

According to phonology, all I-languages must be both systematic and practical, meaning they must be easy to write and read but also easy to speak. I actually ask the questions you have every day of my life. There’s no reason why we couldn’t

It’s a ridiculous but earnest list. I guess it depends on the company, but these days many if not most companies expect junior developers to have senior level knowledge and pay them junior level salaries. Having said that, I didn’t know JQu

I’m a senior developer and I’ve trained a few junior developers over the years. Here’s the technologies/skills you will likely be expected to know in 2021: Backend: 1. PHP 8, Composer, with some framework such as Laravel. 2. SQL with s

Not during waking hours. Back when I was working long hours as a junior developer, I would have lucid nightmares every night of being a 5-cell simplex. I would reprogram myself while asleep for hours until I woke up. The more I tried to pro

As a fellow dreamer, cool project! I’ll have to look more into it. However, I’ve been dying to ask another developer/dreamer, what are your thoughts on a video game that trains your brain to do reality checks?

Work. As a recovering workaholic and nihilist I’ve come to accept that work never really made me happy if meant my life was out of balance. It wasn’t even like I had to work 80 hour weeks, I just did it because I was bored. If there’s one t

I worked part-time (32 hours a week) for 7 years. What I discovered is that most larger companies simply don’t do this schedule because the larger a company is the higher the competition. That’s why I only use CL for applying to jobs becaus

Sorry for the delay. I actually appreciate most art but pragmatically I’m most interested in art that software incorporates into its UX. Typically this is usually vector art or digital art, but a good example is what you might find on Dribb

I miss HN office hours and I was contemplating how to make a better version of recent, but this could be a nascent form of it. Can you tell us a little more about this service or your impetus or inspiration for creating it was? It reminds m

This is brilliant in my opinion. But I wouldn’t limit it to just classic art, but it’s a good place to start!

I’ve been using Ulysses for about two years and I’m addicted now. However, it’s not the the whole solution I’m looking for; ideally I would like a Muse + Ulysses + Gladys app, so I probably will just make it myself this year.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I should have asked also if Pijul’s current API or user facing semantics will change with 1.0? I admire how challenging developing Pijul must be, especially when some of us here critique
