Despite what people think. Lightning port survived way longer than usb-c ports do. I’ve seen phones with the usb-c port with broken middle bit. Go wobbly and lost contact on the board in the phone. Let’s not even get into the terrible stand

What a load of crap. If someone is distracted by a persons attire then they probably are going to be distracted by other players playing, people walking around, noise. This is nothing more than a dumb outdated rule. He wore jeans. Not a flu

The funny thing is. China can talk about removing the U.S. dollar and trade when Yen. But they need a stable currency to convert between and so conversion is still done with the U.S. dollar. The U.S. dollar won’t be removed from trade in ou

Huawei has a history of spying. China is good at spending money to sweep things under the rug and pretend like it didn’t happen. Look how they are using it to spread propaganda STILL to this day that Covid didn’t originate in Wuhan.

Literally does not matter. ByteDance is a Chinese company and beholden to the CCP.

lol having worked through 3 large projects going from 0.14 to 15 - pain. 15 to 16 - pain. 16 to 17 - pain. If you disagree you haven’t worked on anything even slightly complex. Thankfully I’m on my 2nd project of ripping react out for htmx.

> upgrading it is painless as long as you don’t ignore deprecation warnings Maybe if you have a small app. React is as bad as going from angular to angular 2

The CCP gave itself the name CCP up until after the civil war when it tried to change it to CPC to distance itself from anything written about the CCP and attempt to deny any association. CCP/CPC is the same thing, same party, same his

React does not create a clear separation. Anyone who claims that hasn’t worked on any react bigger than a todo list. If you struggle with backend code then you’re just not a good backend developer. Maybe just stick to HTML/CSS.

I’m confused. Do you hate cloud or the container shit? Cloud is awesome. Containers is dumb as hell for 99% of the applications hacker news kids work on.

None of the Fortune 500 companies hire top talent. They have a few good people but 98% of the engineers are average at best. Over paid.

There are sooo many programmers in China that they don’t value programming. You get paid peanuts because there’s so many people to do the job.

Recruiters only get paid if a candidate stays beyond a period of time. If the candidate does not work out the recruiter needs to find a replacement. Recruiters won’t deal with shit people because if they don’t stay or are prone to not worki
