I think that's just your own personal bias on the matter – 99%, really? To me (IMO), Git is something that's inherently visual and not really suited to a CLI, it has nothing to do with not understanding how Git works under the hoo

I think what I said should be equivalent to what you do. When I merge my feature back to origin/master I do `git merge --squash myFeatureBranch` which automatically rebases everything and keeps a clean history. This is really the only

Maybe my workflow is a lot easier than others, but I work on a team of 10+ engineers and my Git usage is dead simple. I do everything from a GUI (Fork for macOS) and very rarely have to deal with any complicated issues that require a termin

This is not unique to the dating industry, other industries get by just fine without resorting to outright fraud.

Is it possible for someone to create a statically typed language that works on OTP/BEAM, or for an existing language to interface with them somehow? I tried learning Elixir a while back and just couldn't get myself to like the syn

I agree that the probability of these occurring so close together is very unlikely. Separately, this is a huge blow for Instagram/Facebook since this is one of the busiest social media sharing weeks in the US. I bet a lot of their engi

I have a nightmare story regarding this. I went on a two-week vacation and took a bunch of photos, and unknowingly had the "automatically sync on WiFi" option turned on. Well, at one point in time I did intentionally enable that,

Looks very similar to Anko (a Kotlin Android UI DSL). Awesome work, can't wait to try it out.

My team does a take-home coding test and we've found it to be very successful. The people we've hired as a result have been great and actually told us they preferred it to other interview methods they've encountered. The chal

Yea, no offense intended with this, my first thought looking at the project is that it's a scam or malware. I would have to personally read through the source code to feel comfortable using this. The main thing is none of the text is v

Are developers in San Francisco really worth the cost? According to Paysa data on Lyft the average Software Engineer makes 263k and the average Senior Software Engineer makes 354k (I believe these numbers are total comp). If I'm readin

I think academia is a special brooding ground for this kind of people. Everyone is worried about their own professional reputation since it sticks with them for a long time — unlike a regular job where you can jump around easier — so very f

Others have already mentioned that it only shows up for compatible devices, but why would you want it to show below the payment form? That means a user would start filling in the form before realizing there's an alternate payment metho

Am I one of the few failing to see what is so egregious here? Looking at the screenshots, the documentation text differs quite a lot. The API structure is very similar and many of the parameters have the same names, but I thought the HN cro

If you're working at a company that has multiple offices around the country (say SF, NYC, Boston), is it unreasonable to ask for the same compensation that a worker in the most expensive office gets? Assuming the role/responsibili

When I was in Spain on vacation we had to use the myTaxi app. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles that Uber/Lyft apps have, but it got the job done and the prices were reasonable.

This reminds me of how I got into programming by playing Starcraft: Brood War. If anyone is familiar with the Use Map Settings game mode, you could program your own scenarios using a Map Editor that came included, eg a Tower Defense map. Th

I'm sure there's some technical reason they could come up with, but to me, that's admitting they didn't design the database with that use-case in mind. Disclaimer: Have no experience with databases at that scale so maybe

Does the timing of this have anything to do with the Facetime bug? It feels like they could have done this a long time ago.

I think those Glassdoor numbers are way off based on all the anonymous surveys and salary sharing threads I've seen. For example, 5+ years of experience will get you 200k+ total comp per year at all of those companies, with many offers

I do agree with your point, however, I think Swift is in a unique situation since they intentionally deferred on making concurrency first-class. Now the language is in a much better position to implement a modern system. What about the prop

Swift is a really great language and I'm very bullish on it becoming popular for server-side projects in the next few years, once they improve a few things (namely performance gotchas and concurrency).

I got the point of the original statement, but again, even building a large and complex system is not unique to Clojure. Go was used internally within Google, Swift within Apple, and Rust within Mozilla, to name a few.

The deification of Rich Hickey in this thread is amusing. No doubt he's a great developer and language designer, but dogfooding your own language is not exactly novel.
