I primarily do web dev work and I've been diving deep into React Native recently and have worked with Ionic for a little bit. What I find with these hybrid frameworks is that they aren't perfect. I love React Native. I think it&

In SF, UberEATS has a rolling $5 off per delivery for the month of November. Last I checked, deliveries were a flat $5 so this counteracts it. It's been that way for ~2/3 weeks now.

OP's been posting that same rhetoric for the past 1+ years on HN, I genuinely can't tell if they're trolling or not.

I enjoy food, but don't budget my time appropriately in the mornings. Soylent is my go-to when I'm leaving for my commute in the mornings and for nighttime if I end up working on my own projects at home too late to remember to mak

I work for a 'big corp' and had an excessive meeting culture on my old team. One day a week, half our day was spent in scheduled meetings regardless of whether or not there was a set agenda in advance. Additionally, daily standups

On a mobile webview I noticed that the auto play video took over the screen and opened several instances that I had to keep closing one after another. I didn't get much further after that.

I'm confused. You posted this exact same post, with a different Medium link to the exact same story, a month ago. You've also been answering your own questions about negative reviews of Hack Reactor on Quora. I can't help but

There's a couple of Hack Reactor alum-dedicated groups (Slack, Facebook) and someone posted the article to the groups. Out of the however many thousand alum there currently are, a small handful are really active in engaging with people

An adapter exists to drive an external display and power. The reality is, a secondary display for most (read: casual, mainly nontechnical consumers who certainly don't read Hacker News nor know of its existence) people is not a priorit

Same. I'm not swayed by price. It's the build quality and materials that matter most to me. While there might be consumers who are drawn to Amazon's laptop stand, I'm willing to assume that the majority of buyers for Ama

I don't understand why you're disappointed at all. Apple has never caved to "customer demand" for things like this. I own a 12" Macbook as a secondary machine and frequently bring it with me to travel. I have never

Whenever I return from grocery shopping, my first instinct is to throw it all in the fridge as fast as possible so I can continue with whatever it was I was doing before I left. However, I am very guilty of buying too many fruits and salad

I'm a big fan of Facebook groups and the communities they foster. One of the best things about it is a relatively low barrier to entry: You click the "join" button. A lot of people already have Facebook accounts, and this fam

What about jobs that aren't particularly "entertaining" to watch? I'm thinking something like lawnmowing, gardening, landscaping, etc? And how about the scope of "free labor"? You mentioned house demolition, bu

Schwab is fantastic. Their service is top-notch and I'm really glad I'm no longer with Chase. I once accidentally rated an online chat interaction lowly, and received a follow up call by a concerned manager less than a day later.

Completely agree. A friend and I tried to do something like this as a fun project at a hackathon, getting to 80% wasn't difficult, just a lot of parsing the DOM for articles. Dealing with things like adverts, photo captions, comments,

The idea of developers that aren't passionate about the craft who just do it for the money makes me cringe. Writing software isn't just another job you do for your employer or client, it's about creativity and empowerment. I

Right, but I'm observing a lot of sentiment around "grad school is the answer" as what comes right after "college is the answer" has proven wrong for people without a clear goal. It's just more debt piling up.

I was the first generation of my family to attend college. Throughout high school (graduated high school in 2006), the idea that college was the answer to everything was everywhere. Go to college, get a degree, you'll end up with a job
