Over time I figured its smarter to avoid frameworks whenever possible. * Backend is nodejs mostly (sometimes extends to express when needed) * DB is usually SQLlite / hosted mongo * UI is mostly in HTML/Vue/React in increasin

This is a horrible idea. I can imagine some compelling reasons for using drones as an automated delivery mechanism, but this - food delivery, isn't one of them. On the contrary, I think they are particularly bad for food delivery. Howe

The argument of more productivity is just too ambiguous and weak. You have to realize what allowing remote work means for a manager : losing control. I see only a few reasons for management to change their attitude towards remote work * it

The fanciest I've ever been to had a 'surprise' menu. Let the chef know your dietary preferences and restrictions, they choose the dish for you. The surprise element was definitely the high point. Could be unacceptable for so

At top companies, there's very little chance you are getting through without being convincingly good at CS heavy topics (DataStructures, efficient algorithms, etc.) Case in point: https://twitter.com/mxcl/status&#x

If you're young and beginning your career, start with coding practice. As you gain years of experience, the incentive and time you can afford to scruff your way through it keeps declining. Keep building apps/websites/tools&#x

Off topic : the launch webpage [1] is hell annoying. Image loops, scroll-jacking, poorly thought out. By the time I scrolled to the bottom, Chrome made 470 requests and downloaded 42.8 Megabytes (10 additional requests blocked by AdBlock pl

Did Apple have to kill the card slot to support iCloud ? No. Why then? Lock-in, that's why. Like someone else on this thread rightly said, Impracticality is the feature here and clearly intentional. Apple may have gained customers lik

I'd start with looking at a sub-segment that you can reach within the larger roommate seeking group of people you plan to target. Say people moving for work for example. I'd first pick an area that is fertile with people moving fo

I think the negativity becomes easier to understand if you put it this way. GitHub earned trust from enterprise and open source community alike. Stable, robust, secure and reliable. Competitors try hard but they're not even close. Ever

So you've now paid for more storage than you need. Upfront. You can't swap it and if the phone dies, you've probably lost everything or it's going to cost you dear to get that data out. Apple's solution is to go syn

Interesting idea. iFixIt releases repairability scores for laptops [1] and phones [2]. As an avid tinkerer, it is shocking and disheartening to see the most popular products on both lists with the least scores ! What is the next generation

No removable batteries, no expandable memory, no headphone jack and now the notch. All undeniable evidence on manufacturers copying(?) Apple's choices at least in phones. As a user, I strongly feel these are not in my best interests.

I'd make a video about how each one works, put it on their own landing page and market it like crazy. Email / signup is too high a commitment to ask from potential customers but people seem more receptive about giving anonymous fe
