I don't know but I always found Google's font choice, airy cold, disconnected and vapid. Not sure why I get that response but something just feels incredibly stale and impersonal.

can somebody fill me in what happened? is this related to the oAuth vulnerability through github a while back?

the small percentage of survivors will lay it out like there's specific sequence of steps but its 1) very tough to find market product fit 2) even if you do, theres no guarantee you will be chosen 3) your immediate circle, your economi

very cool, did not know there was a market for python web products. constantly being gaslighted by frontend/backend.js crowd.

This article is laughable, coming from someone who has lived in Japan, there are lot of superficial processes and forms that the society knows is useless but individuals are powerless to stop it, for instance the idea that coordinated hand

if you owned stock options and invested it in Google with portion of your salary going to it, you absolutely would be looking at extreme returns. The power of compounded returns is still not clear to some I see. With that money you could&#x

tarsnap is a one man show and he's not building a startup. he could've easily worked at Google, take advantage of the rising stock prices AND continue work on his SaaS. Lot of us do exactly that because it doesn't make sense

I'm still a bit steamed from being gaslit all throughout the mid-2010s years when we were told <div id="root"></div> + SPA was The One True Way of building web applications. omg. tell me about it.

Absolutely refreshing to read and I feel that many of us are fed up with the 2015 approach, two codebases, with much of the woes coming from the frontend. I'm super relieved to see that many of us are beginning to see the emperor witho

Seems you understood it just fine.

The two aren't mutually exclusive, you could've easily started out with salary + stock options that would've put you in a better position to start a side gig. Then you might actually be driving a lambo now too ;)

You are being pressured to get higher salary for the same level of work you are currently doing and this is a problem? Strange.

I feel such a disconnect from all the comments. Seems most engineers/manager in the comments are pulling by my estimates, $400,000~$1,000,000+ a year arguing over culture. I don't get it because it's not an issue outside of F

I'm genuinely worried for that guy. He's exposing powerful connected people and I can't really see that end well. It's not like people retweeting and liking his tweets have any sort of power like what is alleged.

I don't see anything wrong with this. We regularly see YC companies getting upvoted.

absolutely insane. seems like its installing pip packages and running localhost in the browser? I don't 100% grasp what is happening underneath the hood. But usually you would launch the local server, browse over to http://l

but wouldn't it be easy to catch people with lot of near expiry far OTM put options for instance? Or are these people going on r/wallstreetbets to write long DD upvoted by bots, purchased accounts, awards, under VPN to make their

same can be said of the parent's comment. just say something contrarian and not back it up.

you haven't worked in the industry long enough if you haven't encountered poorly constructed/documented API integration from vendors. the ideal world you described does not exist on this planet.

Felt like a wallstreetbets post. Inflation is only at "8%" (still remember back in 2021 calling this a conspiracy), so 8 / 12 = ~0.7% = 700 USD loss / month on 10k deposit.

okay thought it wasn't working because it seems to take a long time for the spinner to go away. but I'm very impressed with the todo.py! This is what frontend should be and in 5 years or so I wouldn't be surprised to see pyth

depends on Owen's agent. think it will be a bad look if he did go after it. also tough to make money off ads these days

pretty cool but will never use it until enough blue checkmarked twitter handles I follow are on it. If anything it will probably be replicated by existing social networks. Good work and its a neat idea

but if you can't generate enough revenues to justify valuations you wouldn't go anywhere either. i guess it is better to find that out after raising millions and paying yourself a fat salary

i guess you make millions a month, i will still take 3k a month MRR.

good to hear the improvements! dont know why you would be downvoted for this. HN really has fallen from grace.

really bizarre all the ppl who improved themselves from abstaining from porn are being downvoted and flagged. is somebody absolute in their beliefs that they would try to censor others who have reached self improvement? absolutely bizarre a
