It’s such a nice coincidence that your path matches mine as well, going from Turbo Pascal to IntelliJ. When I started on Java, I was disappointed at the quality of IDEs so much that I resorted to coding in Notepad instead. I was so used to

Ten years ago, JavaScript was my go to when I wanted to expose others to coding. It still is today, but now that comes with the caveat that the most popular libraries and framework require a significant amount of prior knowledge to underst

I can understand NextDoor at least. It’s very neighborhood based, and they need some way to verify that you live where you say you live. If people keep seeing membership in their neighborhood has included those who don’t love in their area,

True, but you can say that for any company. At least in this case, you can consider their past 5 years, see what moves they make and what statements they have released, and judge whether their words and matching their actions.

Artificial scarcity successfully implemented is still scarcity. For example, trading cards printed in low numbers can drive the prices for those cards high.

I have noticed this with our purchases as well. Because of Prime, most of our online purchases are Amazon-first. Only when they don't carry it do we check elsewhere. We recently cancelled because of customer service issues with Amazon,

I'm pretty sure I remember getting that far. We even figured out how to actually win. I don't remember now how we got the knowledge - this was waaay before the internet and in a third world country. Good times.

I have a 4 yr old. They adapt well. My kid only used to be exposed to touch screens. Her daycare then introduced them to more traditional computers with a keyboard and mouse, and they adapted fine.

Isn't this a common concern with most startups which seek to grow beyond 6, 7 or 8 figures?

A small problem is a good thing if you have lots of people with similar problems, in which case your market can grow really large.

Like others have pointed out, it is not a glorified text editor. Keep in mind that JetBrains IDEs started not as a text editor, but as a rename utility. So really, it's closer to an AST tool with text-editing features.

Not to mention, when they load up on all the new stuff, they try it out on fairly modern machines and it loads well enough, with a load time that's just good enough, so there's even less motivation to trim down. I also would love

I grew up in the Philippines knowing about the Bataan Death March. Not details, but the fact that it happened and the general idea of it. Now that I think about it, I didn't learn it at school, I learned it because it was taught to m

The problem could be the VBA hurdle. It's enough of a hurdle that you would need an actual developer to go beyond basic functionality. At that point, a developer would just recommend you use whichever hammer the developer is holding

This is definitely possible now. In fact, this is possible now even with the existing Apple TV - using the TV Out feature which many games already employ.

I wonder how many developers will stop promoting their products to other developers based solely on the subscription model? I know I would. Also, I never would have tried their products if they were already on a subscription model. That wo

For solving complex problems, yes. On my own personal projects, I get very limited time. For these, I go straight to the keyboard and put in as many characters as I can. However, every now and then I come across something beyond simple. G

I have stopped responding to Amazon recruiters because of workplace issues I keep reading about through the years. There wasn't a lot in the article that I found shocking. I'm not saying that every department would be bad, so you

> you should spend the $100. You will get it back in the first couple of days if you make a good app. 40% of mobile developers do not even reach $100 in a month [1]. Having a "good app" is not a guarantee that someone will get

It may be the other way around. The older OS'es integrated too much of IE, and they reduced that coupling in Win 10.

I'm also curious - what about Windows Explorer makes it a painful experience? I learned how to use computers using DOS/Windows and it's what my idea of "correct" is. I'm curious about the other perspective.

I wonder about the other way around. I've been writing Swift since it was introduced, but since I only do iOS apps as a hobby in my spare time, I don't have 6 months experience with it yet, really only about 4 weeks. Makes one thi

It can also depend on how many developers will write with your framework, and how long your code is expected to live. If the code is built on a custom in-house framework, you are putting the burden on everybody to learn it and understand it

This is by design. Slides are supposed to be visual aids only. They are an accessory of the speaker, not vice versa. When I prepare slides, I would use the notes field accompanying each slide for additional information that would be useful

Your comment tells me you haven't used Android Studio at all, and are making up attributes based on what you assume something written in Java must be. I use Jetbrains IDEs and Xcode every day. Whenever I have to write any significant
