I have a similar experience. The addition of all the places details and reviews that are accessible inside of Google Maps has actually expanded its usefulness. Google Maps has grown to be more than just navigation software for me. I live in

I can't help with references for research about this but I was thinking that this is a somewhat related phenomena to statistics like how the majority of the content on wikipedia comes from a surprisingly small number of people. I belie

This article seems so obvious to me that I'm surprised it got traction on HN. Are there managers here that felt there was some new/interesting content in this article? Maybe the scarier notion is that this was upvoted by the repor

I bought a couple 100 trillion Zimbabwe dollar notes a while back. Been meaning to frame them, just like this. :)

I saw this a couple weeks ago too. This could be the first time in around 40 years that they are able to raise interest rates higher than the previous peak before having to cut them.

At ParkMobile we have a pretty vibrant community regarding learning, designing, and implementing architectures. We have various "guilds" which are monthly meetings dedicated to various topics from specific languages to event strea

It is funny that they use Stonehenge as the metric for being old. I know it's the BBC...but still... Stonehenge is much younger than what they say this site in Saudi Arabia is and there are FAR older sites than either of these in that

To me, the stronger government intervention is taxing the use of cryptocurrencies (or pretty much anything except dollars in the US) when buying something with it. There is a capital gains tax event that happens if you buy something with BT

I use Reverb everyday. It's a great app and I'm pretty sure it is located in Chicago.

My team at ParkMobile is looking for a Staff engineer (Golang&Kafka), fully remote but if you're in Atlanta you can come in the office. There is normally one or two days in a month where we have an all hands type meeting or plannin

I worked at a startup a number of years back where we had some pretty cool timeline software. I always tried to push using git and github integrations as our goto market product. I got shutdown though. :) We also were integrating Slack and

It is interesting, I've been at a company for a few years now and we've been slowing trying to break apart the two monoliths that most of the revenue generating traffic passes through. I am on board with the move to microservices.

That's a bummer. I have built a ton of nights and weekends projects using Heroku. I've even used it in my professional career getting the real estate software we were developing to get up and running with a very small team. We eve

It seems the fixation on 'thinness' has continued with the new iMac release. They chose to keep a big chin on the iMac in order to make the all-in-one desktop computer extremely thin. I don't see any value in extreme thinness
