My heroku deploy succeeded, but my CircleCI run failed for the same reason. Had to upgrade package.json as well, since my circleci build downloads yarn each time. Probably not the most efficient way of doing this but it worked...

Can someone explain to me what the x-axis means in the "Divorce Rate By Occupation" chart? It seems to be just a random distribution from -1 to 1, because the author wanted to use dots to represent each title. I suppose that&#

Setting permissions on s3 buckets is absurdly complicated. Though it's no excuse, it's not surprising people leave it open, it's too hard to figure out how to lock it down. Amazon needs to share some of the blame here and cre

I think like devnonymous says, SnapCircuits are a good choice. They aren't breakable and can be quite fun to play with. But, to be honest, 5 is pretty young for them to grok a whole lot. Most of this at this age is really about build

If "coding speed" is the most important factor, dynamic languages will win over typed languages. Types force you to slow down. But they offer some obvious advantages in the long term [1] Not sure what the poster means by "d

This would make a great SF story. Over time, the demand for young blood continued to grow but there was a stubbornly limited supply. A new batch of YCombinator "blood startups" aimed to disrupt the industry by supplying devices t

You are comparing R&D with Cost of Goods - they are different things. Cost of goods refers to the production cost of an individual item. COG for app store is zero. You don't even pay for hosting your app on the app store. Softwa

The cost of goods on a cup of Starbucks coffee is substantial (servers, beans, equipment, rent, utilities, cup, creamer) The cost of goods on your $1 app is close to, and perceived to be, zero.

I just tried to move a rails app to appengine. It uses the flexible environment (eg, docker). It took like 10 or 15 minutes to deploy, each time. Heroku does my deploy in about 5 mins. https://groups.google.com/forum/

If the API supports ETags / Conditional GET, I think that would be a much simpler solution. Just request the same call again from the server and you'll receive a 304 if it hasn't been updated. No new code needed.

MRR without in isolation, without churn, CAC or WoW growth is fairly meaningless. It's basically just a different way to report run rate. You can buy 20k in MRR with your YC investment, just for a pop at demo day. Keeping up growth i

I wonder how much BSD + patents actually diminishes lawsuits for Facebook. Is React that widespread? What happens if you stop using React, and replace it with a clone like Preact? I also wonder if this will hold up in court, or is purely a

React really should be able to detect object literals in style components and optimize those away into a const under the hood. Hopefully this is fixed in a future version.
