I have intermittent issues scrolling the fullstack job post ( https://bolt.com/jobs/fullstack-engineer ) in Chrome for iOS. Requesting the desktop site seemed to fix it. I was also able to get it working by randomly clic

This again? It's eerily similar to https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/7452324 (sorry for the mobile link). Only one other comment mentions the bug from 2015 that surprise, crashes the phone in the same way. It l

From SVN I cut my teeth on Hg/Mercurial, which had a much simpler barrier to entry and feels more user friendly. Mercurial and git solve the same basic underlying problem, distributed repositories, but in the "next gen vcs war&quo

I don't think I've seen a modern IDE that doesn't either have vi/emacs keybindings included or has a rich enough ecosystem for someone else to do so. I'm someone that cut my teeth in Linux, on many distros that neve

This mirrored my experience joining a company when my prior PHP usage was also custom code. I struggled for about a month with the current workflow of writing code, pushing it live to a hidden test area, and then getting feedback from the c

Yeah pretty much. It's risky because type checking produces fatal errors that aren't always easy to trap properly. You don't realize how much a code base relies on PHPs type coercion until you add annotations and watch it blo

I feel like this should be part of the stipulation. If we repeal net neutrality and you're caught degrading the internet further than it already is, you should be forced to pay all of that money back to the public. This seems to be the

A bit of anecdata: my second software only gig (started in IT) was offered a very lowball rate with a '90 day eval' to bump my pay that came and went. 12 weeks isn't 3 but it took getting another offer to get a raise I more t

So far no one has mentioned something that has my tinfoil hat tingling like a mofo. With Net Neutrality being the uncertainty that it is, why would Disney choose to be potentially burdened like this? I see a few possible scenarios: 1) They

This entire post echoes my feelings precisely. My circadian rhythm makes getting ready before 10am a problem, much less making it to the office. I'm currently employed at a place that is relatively completely opposite of requiring a lo

I think understanding the value you're giving is key but it's somewhat of a black art. Freelance bidding sites that have something like 'build complete Facebook clone for $29.99' are a huge red flag to me. The client obv

The immediate information I found when doing that was that background checks, which almost always happen at least in Georgia, disclose the exact amount. I would rather just be honest and say I've been making below market rate and I

I can see why you'd wanna go to something like DO/Linode for that. It's a relatively fixed cost up front. This is all anecdotal but at work we recently switched from marketing sites/blogs on internal infrastructure to fa

This is sadly rife for abuse. Why hire anyone? You can just string enough candidates along to possibly not work a full solution but it could be a first line or give you a fair number of prototypes. Granted I don't know that this could

I think this is what I really took from that. I feel like very small diffs that lack overall context just add cognitive load. If the context isn't properly captured, the tendency to green light a few changes would be higher when these

I totally agree with your assessment of the wording. Money, to me at least, never equates to closed or open source. Fortunately, at least with stack overflow jobs, you can kind of self-assess this if they list tools like JIRA or Trello. You
