Yes but uber is evil and everything they do is evil and I need somewhere to aim my anger. /S

I'm 29 and slowly being pushed into a management position. I'm about 25% code (mostly R&D) and 75% management. I feel like only just hit my peak in coding knowledge and quality. It's such a shame to take someone away from

Have you played one yet? I thought the same thing, argued with people, etc. Played at a friends house and ordered one the next day.

And then she had to take off time from work to "recover" from the incident. Sounds like someone who might be more fit for their new position than in a stressful environment around other humans.

Yes. It's called empathy, and the lowest effort way of showing something that you acknowledge their bad mood is by saying "hey, cheer up" or "hey, smile buddy!" Not saying it's tactful but I'm not a psych

What an uninformed childish tantrum. "Like, nobody likes this! Nobody! Not a single person thinks this is good" How did this get linked here, let alone 100+ people who up-voted it?

I work for a mid sized contracting company (think Deloitte but much smaller) and 18F has been such a breath of fresh air. Working (well, dealing) with a group of competent people who are setting modern goals in such an terribly outdated env

I think the "price of being poor" is a thing to be considered here as well. Similar to the boots theory[1], I've seen my mother in law spends hundreds of dollars every year on support with Dell, and other people to keep her c

Even though I own an echo, I wanted to get in early. Here's a link until they remove it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00VKTZFB4/

I was recently contacted by Nest due to a project I posted on Reddit. Evidently their head of engineering saw the project and told them to see if I'd be interested in working there. I said I would love to continue with the interview pr

One of the creators here. We made this app for iPhone and iPad to help with the painful process of test coverage in SFDC. We've had it priced at $3.99 and haven't seen any movement, so we made it free for everyone to download and

You act like she's a martyr. I don't care if I'm just standing in my front yard, if the police decide to arrest me, I'm not going to fight and kick them. The police are just the errand boys of the law. Fighting and screa

As soon as I realized it was posted in Fashion, I realized that it wasn't going to have any content that I care about. "It makes me feel this, people think that about me, etc etc" Hint: If you're going to buy products fr

Agreed. I just used it to pay for my lunch at Panera today and it was the biggest response I've gotten so far, with an outrageous, over the top.... "heh, that's neat" as she grabbed my cup and continued with her day.

Google drive is almost unusable to me now. Always takes like 5 minutes to figure out where my stuff is.

I spent two days just trying to get the thing installed and gave up. Kept hitting a snag somewhere. Such a bummer because I was excited about using it.

I wonder how large the overlap of people on HN and CS:GO players is. Either way, I fall into that description. Let me play with the app a bit and I'll return with some feedback. My initial concern is with immediately tapping the bomb t

This is amazing... I hope it works. I've wanted something like this for testing on device.

That video was awkward as hell. I feel like creating these "me too" products makes these big companies seem weaker rather than stronger. Maybe there's some financial reason for doing it, but I don't get it.

Love the idea, just wish these things didn't naturally exclude us in boring places like Ohio :)

Personally, I really like location-aware app features. My favorite is search suggestions. If I'm in BestBuy and I open the app to the products section, chances are I want more details or reviews on the product I'm standing in fron

I absolutely agree with this. I pushed beacons really hard internally, and got a couple projects with them. Unfortunately, they're an absolute pain in the ass as far as reliability goes. One iPhone 5 detects the beacon immediately, the

I think the note about the viewWillAppear is critical to what I'm doing wrong. Additionally, it might be worth writing a follow up regarding creating a framework for shared code between your app/extension. (At least that's ho

I agree with the comment about your parents knowing you're available to chat. However, referring to the audio recording and playback capability of an iPhone as "talking through a tiny speaker" seems in itself pretty technopho
