I stopped reading before finishing the third page. It seems to me that what many paragraphs advise is to be reasonable, which is meaningful, but a bit too loose for guiding code reviews.

META May I ask you to change the leading text to something more useful for remote workers? REMOTE doesn't cover but the most basic possibility and 90 matches on this page make it quite cumbersome to find what suits you. What about depr

I would live in a big city with plenty of opportunities. Find an interesting job, where to work no more than 20 hours a week, and earn around 60K. I think your Angular experience is very marketable. And you can always tell your prospective

It's funny to see how many comments advise about beginning a Start Up. Of course, this is a Start Up forum. If this was a farmers forum, would many advise about beginning a farm?

Sorry to add a critic. If you want to make your PHP classes easy to extend, refrain from private and prefer protected. Otherwise, a developer that wants to extend one of your classes will need to also override (i.e. copy and paste) into her

If you want to see how they code, why do you want to see their own algorithm? In normal conditions, They would Google the problem and find its algorithm on Wikipedia (with lots of additional information to peruse) and some interesting imple

For me it would be much more valuable if the programmer knew that a tree wouldn't be needed at all if expressions were represented in reverse Polish notation. However, in the last 30 years, I needed to process expressions at work and b

Many recruiters don't read resumes and many of those that do, don't understand them, be they from HR or IT depts. Arrogance, disrespect and plain unpreparedness.

Yes, someone in another thread is discussing about skill sets to be learned to engineer software, but I think academy already does a decent job. To engineer a good architecture you need time to thoroughly think and explore alternatives. Cou

A nice thing about "hello world" applications is that you can always use them as the starting point for any other. The first step forward would be to change it from "hello world" to "hello {{name}}" and have th

It surprises me how many replies try to solve a side problem instead of what the OP asks for. The OP doesn't seem a computer illiterate, so no need to educate him on anything. IMO, he asks: "How does one scale a free web applicati

Yes, the result is a bit unexpected but it works much better than other "more traditional" approaches. I mean, it's really "at a glance" that I can find the strongest news. As for the "Hyped News" name, I

Actually, the reason I wrote the extension was exactly to avoid scanning down the list with my own eyes. This extension does it for me, so that, if I don't have much time, I can just read the few leftmost news. Thanks for the kind word

Not really "sorted by sum of comments and votes" nor really "age is ignored". The former only affects horizontal offset of the start of a title, and the latter is preserved, so that the order (and fluctuation) of the tit
