This is actually really interesting to me, but the way to determine if you should mulligan is if the 7 cards you are looking at is better than the average 6 cards in your deck. Given that games in most higher power formats end in the first

Hmm well, from my perspective, none of them are even really playing the game, they are just taking random actions. Any human, even a small child, would be much better. And re: ages, it's worth noting that the youngest player to make D

As a former competitive MtG player this is really exciting to me. That said, I reviewed a few of the Legacy games (the format I'm most familiar with and also the hardest by far), and the level of play was so low that I don't think

I can't see any movement, at any distance. How likely is it something weird with my vision vs. something weird with my monitor/computer? I'm on a 360hz monitor at 2k.

I agree that maintaining web apps is an entirely different set of skills, though in my experience (mostly small and mid size companies) PMs come in with massive projects and huge changes constantly and management has to say yes to a few .

I think this article discounts the reasons behind frontend decisions... priorities are absolutely fast execution time and ease of hiring. There is very, very little reason to care about optimizing frontend performance for a vast majority o

I felt this way for a long time and used a heavy mouse for daily use then switched to my lightweight mouse for gaming. I changed my mind very fast when I started developing carpel tunnel symptoms from the heavy mouse - using your wrist to

Love the idea and technology - I’d much prefer if the output of this was an MPC order since that’s how almost everyone is making proxies these days. Getting my entire cube printed was only about $100 and they are indistinguishable from rea

You are basically charging money for things that frameworks like Django already have built-in, and have already had built-in for decades. There are so many good free options for this sort of thing. If a company already pays developers, th

Macaroons are the coconut cookie. Macarons are the fluffy egg white ones. Very different things.

My company operates globally but is based in the US. We don't adjust salary based on location.

When I googled your company the only results listed total comp under $100k for software engineers. 120k is slightly better than that. Equity is worth zero at private companies unless there is a system in place to sell it, so don't tr

Impossible to find? You don’t have salary info on that listing and a quick google shows that your salaries are something like half what I’m making as a remote RN engineer. Very unlikely that it’s because of RN.

Not related to your actual point, but I researched corporate boards a few years back and found many instances of people on boards of two direct competitors. In fact, I found a couple of companies with CEOs who also served on the board of a

Yep, this is where I'm at too. 13" is just not enough space for me to get anything done productively. On my 13" MBP with my standard font size, my code editor can't show a full line of code without me having to scroll

Have you actually spoken to any tournament-level players about your product? Have you actually spoken to anyone at Riot about your product? It just seems incredibly bizarre to me that you made something which so blatantly breaks both ToS a

This is 100% cheating based on Riot's rules, only because of the Spike Timer. The rest is mostly ok. The reason for that is that there is no visual indicator in-game for the spike timer, it has to be memorized. I'm not a LoL pla

Yep, Big Sur update. Unfortunately I can't map to Caps Lock because I have a habit of hitting that key a lot and in most apps I use Escape does a lot of unpleasant things when you hit it accidentally. Another commenter mentioned usin

You used to be able to do that, but they removed it in the most recent update.

I've never heard of that combination, I can try it out. I googled this yesterday and searched for solutions and never saw that mentioned anywhere.

Very pooly, the only easy option is to rebind Caps Lock to be Escape, but Apple doesn't let you rebind any key or combination, just Caps/Control/Option.

by danielvinson 5y ago
Tried playing on my Macbook, but ran into problems since it requires an Esc key in a bunch of places, which Apple has for some reason basically removed completely. It looks cool though.

I agree completely. I play several instruments, and when I learned I wouldn't have been able to motivate myself to do it if I was just practicing small sections over and over again. I might have taken twice as much time to gain the s

As somebody who has been an early engineer at many startups, I would never use this in almost any case because a managed solution is just better. If I can pay somebody else to do something hard with zero maintenance so I can focus on shipp

I think you and most of the other commenters here are analyzing this correctly, but from a very different perspective than me - I've only worked at small companies (less than ~80 people) at varying levels (Junior Eng, Senior Eng, Found

Doing “exemplary work within their band” but not ready for promotion or level up seems to describe somebody exactly meeting expectations at their level, so the compensation for the current level should be perfect.

It really depends on the company. At every company I've worked at, either the company was too small to be able to invite that many people (it would basically be an all-hands) or the management was the ones planning these meetings. In

His post is basically saying "I'm better at spending money than any organization focusing on COVID-19". While exceptionally cocky, he might also be right.
