Well said! I wish I had discovered this truth few years before. In fact while it's especially true for JavaScript it's also true e.g. for Ruby ecosystem ~5 (?) years ago, with all the endless stream of test, factory, workers gems etc.

I know, it's unrelated, but its 2017 and

seems just weird.

The only downside would be time.Time structures grow by 8 bytes, but this is really minor because if you're storing times you're likely storing timestamps and not time.Time structures.

So I don't quite understand how that table explains it. I mean aside from the fact J character code being the LF code with first two bits zeroed.

So why Bitcoin is so big in China?

We need some meta analysis done on these threads for sure )

As someone who does frontend only occasionally I expect this site to be of great help to refresh my knowledge now and then.

Oh well...

So its not just 2 cameras? Fun, do you have a (entry level) link ?

> Never stop dreaming!

At least that one doesn't not seem to imply dreaming about the same exact thing forever. In other words it might be something else if dancing didn't work out. Still seems to me (I'm in my 30s) that someone with a dream can definitely get further compared to someone with "bullet points" so to speak.

Sorry, didn't make it clear, was wondering given all the difference why would one prefer one over the other? Seem like 'in the field' experience is not going to be very much different. Appears to me mobile can be even more fun.

> This is my multi-month study plan for going from mobile developer (self-taught, no CS degree) to machine learning engineer.

Wondering what could be the rationale? I mean is mobile-dev so critically different from ML?

I'm not the big privacy advocate, but have this turned off because I can't see any convincing (to/for me) use case for storing all that crap :)

Sorry, can you elaborate in which way this is "does not have to think about servers"? Because almost the first thing on their tutorial is some messing around with AWS.

So it Serverless Framework that seems to be considerably tied to AWS servers.

EDIT. Only writing this because its in fact possible to imagine serverLESS framework these days (web workers, p2p etc), but this seems to be just about more volatile servers.

Every time these new user tracking hacks come up (like the one based on Audio API etc.) I wonder why in the world this is not handled in a manner similar to Android where it prompts you to give permissions to the any specific API its going to use.

In other words, our typical working hours are supposed to get most out of us, or close to :)

A bit surprised article with so little "content" gets so many upvotes.

Old thread with suggestions https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4474078. Personally I feel the strong desire to have collapsible comment threads, but still haven't invested any time into finding proper solution.

How that compares to https://hn.algolia.com/ ?

Thanks, an amazingly beautiful demonstration which seems not very wide known. Here is the video from "Harvard Natural Sciences Lecture Demonstrations" which is quite beautiful (just the thing at work, without distractions) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3fi6uyyrEs

How overwhelming the research really is? The article links to this page http://sleepfoundation.org/how-sleep-works/how-much-sleep-do... which as it seems cites just a single study

There is also a cool library for writing servers that follow RESP https://github.com/bsm/redeo

Exactly my feeling, this just doesn't make sense, if he was so paranoid about his password being stolen it's unreasonable to rely on something like "remember to remove the shell history on logout". Then he also uploads the code to some random SVN server...
