It's a visual thing. Frontend isn't very similar to programming for the backend (except for high quality javascript). Most people who can do wonders for frontend tend to be more like designers.

> few developers like to write tests I like how this statement completely skips the reason why developers don't like to write tests. The majority of managers refuse to allocate any time to write any tests. Hell, when we come up with

You're only looking at this from the single instance of a single individual's point of view with a single company. If more companies get away with this, the result will be that there will BE no "other positions" to app

Eww what the hell. I don't use ruby, and if I did I might very well - as a PCRE half-expert - fall into this trap based purely on the assumption that ruby was using PCRE. I just looked at their Regexp class, and it matches PCRE in most

From the documentation for regex modifiers: "DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.5.0 and REMOVED as of PHP 7.0.0". Not for much longer.

I don't believe it's stretching. People specifically click through to that article to hear the first hand experience of the person who dumped an Apple I. There's an interesting angle to the story in this version; the actual a

Why is everybody talking about ruby's regex implementation? ^, \A, $, \Z, \z are standard across many languages, based on PCRE syntax. This isn't a ruby problem; this is simply developers who are not experts with regular expressio

Same, intentional clickbait title. A decent editor would not have allowed that through. "Discarded Apple I sells for $200k; mystery woman stands to get half". Not difficult.

The forced upfront payout is probably a good thing in most cases - large companies can play games with the court system for years, purposely drawing out proceedings for no valid reason. Most companies can afford to pay up front, they just d

For technically inclined people, setting up your own SOCKS proxy is the simplest method possible. 1. Get a cheap server (ex: DigitalOcean $5/month) in the city/country you want to connect through. 2. Add these 2 lines to /etc

To be a little more specific, there is no risk when a group of friends sing happy birthday to someone they know in a restaurant. However, if a restaurant's staff routinely sings the song to customers, then people will come to that rest

Did this too. That eye is doing a disservice to that site - if wasn't a web developer who knows how to remove that, I would not have finished reading the article and left that page. Annoying things chase people away, guarantee that sit

You make your kid ask you... every. single. night... to please give him his 2%? You are warping that child's mind with your mind games.

Can you please edit your comment to add some spaces? This comment makes the comment section horizontally scroll and very difficult to read other comments. Why doesn't HN force wrap long lines? :/

Probably not a popular opinion to pin this against someone nobody knows... but just that photo they used to headline the article makes the guy look like a typical sociopathic marketing type who talks smoothly but has no real game. He probab

As strange as it sounds, that much bandwidth would probably suck up $100k faster than you'd imagine. There's a reason a lot of large companies that deal in video have their own data centres and crazy bandwidth deals that make it c

IIRC, it takes about 50% of the network to do so. This is a waste of $100k though, as the network is only used by a small number of people, and this would be a permanent sinkhole of the money and these added servers would simply disappear a

The way you describe it though, it sounds pretty... disgusting... that grand juries nearly always indict. This would indicate that there is nearly no point in holding a trial if the norm is to always convict.

This is the right solution. You don't check for any changes every single time you read out a timestamp - that's just unnecessary overhead and removes the ability to write simple queries to search for timestamps within a certain ra

Not as much effort as you might think. Command-line rendering of html (including css and js) and taking a screenshot is not very difficult. If a site used this method, and someone is highly motivated to break that captcha, the effort put in

In OS X's Terminal application, copy/paste works universally. There is no tweaking for specific tools or programs. CMD+C and CMD+V work at all times. Everywhere. CMD+X for cut is a different manner.

This is entirely off-topic for HN, and yet I believe this is important. Normally one does not try to send a video viral for negative reasons, but this is absolutely ridiculous. Please dislike this video and report it for being abusive. Yout
