I love httpie for smaller requests, but there's still situations where I have to reach for a GUI. Adding 4 headers and 9 fields in a JSON request body is not as fun in httpie if you find yourself having to change fields and run the re

Boomerang isn't so bad for SOAP. I just use the free extension at work. It has worked more consistently for me than Soap UI did.

That's a pretty good idea, actually. Sometimes I throw a repo up to play, but take it down out of insecurity...

That's exactly what we use it for at work, especially since I started working remote.

Your explanation makes sense to me. My son is 5 and loves Lego. I just tried explaining that someone had to write the instructions in the book, that my son has to follow to build the final piece. The programmer is the instruction writer,

Absolutely. Rounding leads to trying to keep a mental tally of how much do I owe you vs hoe much you owe me. My wife's family is a mess with that because everyone remembers or forgets different amounts. Just let me reimburse you exa

I know it's not a fair comparison anymore since I realize that Holberton is 2 years and not a "bootcamp" but most bootcamps offer a certain period of time for you to repay the tuition fee. For example, at the bootcamp I did,

That was my exact thought as well. I paid $8000 for my bootcamp. I'm 18 months into an average of 65k over that time. So in that 18 months I'd already have paid in the area of $16k, and assuming I don't get a raise double

Don't these types of articles just have clickbait titles to get Millennials to comment in outrage at being called millennials? J Crew "killed" J Crew by not adapting to the consumer right?

I read about atom's github integration that they released last week and I've been playing with Atom at work this week. How big is your project that you find atom slow? I have gone back and forth between atom and sublime 10 times

I wish I only saw this once. This is my life. I integrate with 3rd party APIs for a living...what I've learned is that everyone's 'REST' API is terrible in one way or another.

That was great. It really spoke to me, and I really love what you said about the American Dream. Such a good way to frame it for me.

My wife and I have made a very serious effort not to take pictures of things we are looking at. Occasionally we will take pictures of ourselves somewhere, but usually, we just leave our phones tucked away and enjoy the moment. I'll sa

Something about Vue resonates with me. I won't bash any other frameworks, but for my purposes, Vue scratches the frontend itch.

Leia's smile bothered me so much I couldn't think of anything else on my drive home. Why didn't they just use reflections or just show their backs? There's no way this hold up over time.

Yeah, he specifically said the CG in space and the battles was virtually flawless, not Tarkin or Leia.

They have a interactive map of latest earthquakes I've been looking at for a few minutes now. I have never considered how many earthquakes (albeit mostly minor) occur daily. There were 68 with magnitude of 2.5 or higher today! Reall

It's a pretty old spanish proverb. I couldn't find where it came from, but for reference, I lived in Peru and heard some older guys say it. Then in college, I worked in a warehouse in the southern united states and older Mexican

I didn't down vote but lots of devs don't have that sweet luxury to not be held accountable for what they're working on in quantitative business terms.

Yeah that's kind of where I'm at with Reddit as well. It's not a place where I can browse anymore. I just can't bring myself to wade through /r/all, but there are certain subreddits where they just really hav

That looks mildly interesting to me. What do you see yourself using it for mostly? Do you have a personal application in mind, or are you a tinkerer just looking to have some fun? I kind of like it but I don't know that it's cal

That is my suggestion as well. I can't go back to Windows, it just doesn't do it for me. I have been lucky to have my company buy laptops for me for the past bunch of years, but on my personal machine, the only reason I have Win

I must admit. I am stumped. I feel like I'm engaged in a debate to which I do not understand the rules. I simply do not understand the motivation behind your arguments. I recognize that you are arguing, but I cannot, for the life of

I didn't down vote you, but it seems like you're being intentionally literal to the point of being a bit obtuse. Technically you are correct, I understand that. The majority of people can look past the technicality but you, for s

Absolutely. There are lots of good, interesting, and useful things to spend time on, but that doesn't mean they are always the right use of my time right now.
