Thanks for clarifying this. This is what I meant when I said "Why would you want a job you are not qualified to do." I am not so good with words sometimes... Haha...

Thanks for sharing. I think this is a good data point to prove that most people will not cheat on their take home. There is no incentive to cheat. Why would you want a job you are not qualified to do. From your experience, it sounds like th

> I also wish I could easily see different sources of the same information to compare the perspective. That's a really good idea. Maybe we can all collab and make this.

That's actually awesome. There is a lot of stigma around "duplicate" posts. But I think in the context of showing different angles of the same story, that would be cool.

I want to join the NYTimes and build a "chronicle" feature. I hate how news stories develop overtime, but there is nothing to "chronicle" the story from beginning to end. Linking to related stories is a temporary fix, bu

I've been looking through hundreds of job ads for about a month now. This is honestly one of the best. They are putting emphasis on your passionate and fit, rather listing random technology stacks and bs requirements. Bravo NYTimes. Pr

This is one example of how cars have the most horrible UI/UX ever.

I remember going through that thread and seeing all these people refusing to accept the data. On what they call a "leftist" site, they question how an extremely toxic alt-right subreddit could be so heavily blocked. It's iron

Spot on. It's like going to a vegetarian restaurant and being upset there's no meat on the menu. I don't understand all these people complaining that reddit does not have enough differing opinions. What the hell? Do you expec

Good link. I agree with him. But I can't believe he uses 6pm as an appropriate time to leave the office. I am thinking more like 3pm...

It always seem odd to me that on a site where people are expert at algorithms and problem solving, lots of people here cannot deduce this very simple "therefore" scenario. Or maybe people just really hate duck typing :)

Your comment is music to my ears. I can think of like a million other things I would rather do than work (and I actually really enjoy working). Build the app I always wanted, learn assembly, travel, backpack, garden, volunteer, read etc...

If you read and understood the article, this comment is really disingenuous. It does not in any way reflect the sentiment of the writer.

Agreed. For whatever reason, my mind really gravitate towards the idea of bang being a mutator. That should have been a standard. `delete` always gets me.

I don't understand. Are those five stories suppose to be representative of today's unemployment problems? Because if they are. We need more social programs to help these people. Not more "job creators".

That really was a well written article. I know almost nothing about F5, TLS, Go, etc... and I had no trouble understanding the bug. Very educational. The man deserves a beer.

Biggest reason: A lot more react jobs than angular jobs.

Nope not the same. This, like all the other products, is a NETWORK tuner. Meaning, the signal comes out to a cat5. So you need a "PC" to receive the signal. The TiVo has a HDMI-out, so you can hook it directly to your TV.

Very cool. But I feel like the "purple" and "turquoise" should be switched. My brains thinks the purple means more... and "turquoise" is less.

I also commit like 20 things to get Heroku working properly. But after I am done with that, I `rebase` it into one commit. Then I push it into my `origin/master`, and force push `heroku/master`.
