Hah, this reminds me of high school! For my final year project, I knew I wanted to write some kind of software, and my Programming Languages professor suggested that I pick a generic topic like "A program in C++" and then I can bu

Only if by fundamentals you mean the fundamental idea behind coworking spaces. Sure, that makes sense. But the WeWork company fundamentals are out of whack. Nobody is arguing that coworking spaces are a bad idea. WeWork is a company that tu

I would offer another anecdote because I really believe this to be a very high quality laptop. I have bought my Dell XPS13 9360 around the same time and have never been happier with a laptop (running Fedora flawlessly, 10 hours of battery).

Wow they are really aggressively comparing to Trello which isn't really the same product niche. Compare your product to Airtable please. Why would someone use this product instead of Airtable?

I'm also using Dell XPS 13 (model 9360, non-touch, 1080p screen) with Fedora 26, and I haven't had any issues. This is by far the best linux laptop I've had. Just another data point in case someone is looking into buying thes

Most likely not, as it's supposed to be backwards compatible.

I'm not sure what you mean by that, flexbox has been supported by Chrome for a while now: http://caniuse.com/#feat=flexbox .

I'm quite interested in learning why the author decided to use React for the user-facing part of the blog in the first place.

While it may not be "right", you don't need an inventory, not even a payment system. You will not be charging the potential customers. The point is that you test the market, just to see if anyone would be interested in buying

I assume that you are self-employed. If you are not, then I guess it all depends on your employer. I've been thinking of working 4 days a week during summer, but since I mostly work full-time for one client at a time, it would definite

It's definitely ok, and it will probably work out better for you than asking a higher hourly wage. The client may of course be reluctant to accept this if they haven't done any similar arrangements before. As a side note, having f

Not sure if I'm reading this right, but is the amount limited to 3$? If it is, that's a pretty low limit. I wonder what's the reasoning behind that.

I know that one thing I don't like about https://weworkremotely.com is that many of the listed jobs are not truly remote (they are limited to one country). At least on this board I can filter those out.

A web site can be Javascript-heavy[0] without being a web application[1]. There's a big difference. If you just need auto-completion, modal dialogs and similar features then you shouldn't build a web application, and you definitel

Why do you regret it (unless it's too personal)?

There's a comment below the article where Ryan says that they have been working four days a week since 2006.

I'm not sure I follow. What exactly would TDD advocates disagree on?

by schmrz 13y ago
Don't get me wrong, I agree with the idea that you should look at the root cause of why your tests are slow instead of trying to "fix" the tests. I just feel that what you demonstrated is bad design. So you ended up with bad

I don't know (and don't care) if this makes your unit tests faster, you shouldn't write code like that. He took something that should be simple and made it really complicated. The execution time of your tests shouldn't d

You read the whole article (while ignoring the fact that you have to follow a link to get to the second page) and then the last sentence is that he's not really living in his car anymore. What's the point of this article?

As others have pointed out this is far from being accurate. You most definitely don't need awesome hardware to learn how to code. In fact I wasn't sure if that quote about quitting over bigger monitors is serious or not but after

The first thing that crossed my mind when I read this is that it would be a huge and tragic disaster if that person would get hit by a car. It just doesn't seem safe enough.

I didn't know about this google project. This seems really awesome. Can someone more knowledgeable please comment on how big is this? Is this something revolutionary, or is there some catch?

But then you have to generate the hash each time the source code changes. And you also have to verify the source code each time yourself because you can't know if it's a regular update from mega (they probably update daily or week
