There is a permission testing tool built in to firebase. And excellent documentation. This is 100% the fault of developers.

Wish I could upvote this more. In short: Complexity is the biggest killer. And here's a way to view it and tame it.

Similarly, what's so great about being bored? The knowledge of the history world is on my phone.

This is hard. Children can be incredibly boring. I love my kids immensely and they are definitely fascinating at times. But there are games they want to play that literally put me to sleep. Or sometimes my daughter will take 15 minutes to b

I've bought, read, given "Finite and Infinite Games" several times. I actually remember the day I bought it (first copy), nearly 20 years ago!

My plan is to print and frame the rejection and use it as a motivator. For me it was an accomplishment to reach a point where I felt I had a solid submission. I know a few things (at least) I can improve for the next time I submit. So, time

I'm interested in teaching non-programmers to program via Elm. I think the baggage that comes from imperative programming is a deterrent to pure fp. But if you start with pure fp, it's all pretty clear.

"amateurs instruct computers, while professionals write executable stories" Did you just make this up? I think this is an important idea.

Your interested in solving problems you might have in 3 years, and Elm solves problems you definitely have now and will continue to have in 3 years. In 20 years of development I've never been happier, more productive, and more error-fr

As someone planning to do a "Show HN", understanding what "quite a bit of traffic" means, would be helpful. Can you could divulge more details? Happy you got positive feedback. Seems like a good idea for a tool, and nice

To the CodeOwl developers: How did this Show HN work out for you? What kind of traffic did you get to your site? Did people give it a solid test-drive? Did they offer good suggestions, find bugs, etc? Thanks.

I get the same, and have seen it for other sites recently.

It seems that after inflation, nearly everyone earns more over time. Isn't that good?

I'm waiting for that as well. The science gets in the way of profits.

At my daughter's 2nd birthday, my mom had to put out a fire that spontaneously occurred in a bowl of chips outside. Not sure if it was this bowl or a doppelganger.

Wrong: The target country loses money. Wrong: Everyone who is serious about travelling can make their own choices about tradeoffs. That's what being an adult is all about. Correction: "Nobody cares about your private life unless y

I don't know any of my passwords except for my password manager. If I leave my password DB at home, and mail a physical copy to my destination, what can happen? I'll be absolutely unable to access any account.

How could you detect possible plagiarism between documents in a large DB of documents? Given such a system, how could you process a document to subvert it? How would you fix the system? How could you subvert the fix? ...

Send an email to your peers explaining that although you might not agree with reasons, you understand management needs to do what they think makes sense. And that you enjoyed your time together, wish them success, etc.
