Every time this OS is linked on HN half the comments are about pronunciation. That’s probably not a good thing when it comes to marketing..

From what I’m seeing RCS just isn’t a true solution. Apple and Google should come together to create a standard outside of the carriers.

That’s funny, I believe I experienced ageism but on the other end of the age spectrum. I couldn’t figure out why I was making it so far in interviews but not getting the job. This happened for months. Then one day I decided to grow out my b

I would love this! It could put plaid and Venmo out of business, but for some reason the banks haven’t done this. Again why I say this is the banks’ fault.

The issue with that is waiting 2-3 days for the initial funds transfer to go through, maybe more if it’s a banking holiday. We live in a world where you can get 2 day delivery of most goods. The fact that it takes 2-3 days to even initiate

We can blame plaid all day but the banks are the ones that created a need for a third party in the first place. How banks didn’t come together and create a more secure and planned version of plaid themselves shows the technical incompetency

I had the same thought but I don’t think css variables are necessarily better for this use case. It’s simple to position and reposition elements in a grid depending on media queries, and is it any less efficient when rendering than css vari

Even more proof that salesforce buys up and then ruins companies. Want to know my work performance during these days after Christmas and before New Years? Near zero just like most people. Who is this benefiting?

I agree, the ‘dumb’ in my comment comes from an anger i feel toward these planners. They engineered the life around us, but instead of doing it in an intelligent way, they allowed car companies and dictate our lives for decades to come. Now

That’s not my argument. Poor people will suffer more by numbers. Poor people are also less educated by numbers. Those with money can move to avoid the soonest impacts, can pay for AC, can pay for rising food prices, etc.

One beautiful thing about science is that it doesn’t really matter if you believe in it or not. It’s based on the seeking of truth using a proven method. Those who ignore climate change will suffer, especially those who are poor and uneduca

To be a devils advocate for a second, what did you expect them to do? If Adobe came out and said “flash is dead” too early, it would be the nail in the coffin. By waiting decade(s) past its peak usefulness to kill it, they probably kept mor

Yep, they started doing the same dumb car-centric infrastructure as the US around the 50s but unlike us they stopped when they saw how it was negatively affecting life for their people.

I had a professor who would do this. I scored low once because I always did homework last minute. That’s when I learned how got actually works, and how you can edit timestamps on commits. That’s helped a couple times in my work life too.

I think you’re over-estimating the difficulty of the average programming job. The simple fact is we have great frameworks to work off of and building things from scratch is a waste of time and money for most business applications. Wordpress

It's insane to me that there are people like you who went to a school like _princeton_ and ended up being cut out of your dream to pursue medical school or a PhD in bio, where if you had maybe just gone to a mid-tier 4-year university

React is amazing. Throw in ESLint, typescript, and copilot and you will be shocked at how fast and beautifully things come together.

I could never. If you make enough money at one job working remote then there’s no need. If you don’t make enough then use your spare time beefing up your portfolio and applying to crazy-high paying jobs. Eventually you’ll land one. For me,

As a user of Snapchat since high school (now 25), I’m noticing a resurgence in my friends using the platform. I never left because I never joined Instagram due to my distain for Facebook. Snap is a great app to keep in contact with “real” f

How would you go about enforcing the alternative? Force companies to charge the same as the their competitors? And how would you evaluate if the undercut is sustainable or not?

If you haven't saved enough to retire on 800k per year for a few years, something is horribly wrong. I say move.
