It should be mentioned on this list but because Angular has positioned itself as the enterprise solution to web frontend it scares away novices. Great solution tho, I work with it fulltime

Let me guess, you did a "todo list" tutorial and you just kept going

what is the less cruel way to lay off 10% of your workforce

Whatever works but a lot of these modern tools were designed with good reasons and good intentions. Build your mvp with PHP + Ajax, if it's successful tho might not be long till you're hitting a wall and looking for more robust solutions

he made a mouse with one button

Looks more like you're procrastinating writing blog posts

Seems wise but it really is built in our DNA to compete with the other lobsters

edit: this comment probably won't make it to the top

It's like nominating a supreme court justice is a zero sum game. Is it really? Either way, you'll never convince both sides that one decision isn't a loser for them

I live in Toronto and the pilot project remains a very controversial decision basically pitting the interests of commuters against car drivers in what is for all intents and purposes a zero-sum game.

The next question is whether there's a solution where everyone wins and the most immediate idea is a subway running down that corridor. Of course, the amount of disruption that would bring to businesses already crying foul over the pilot project is a tough pill for any politician to swallow. Ultimately this is a lesson in failed urban planning as a subway built there decades ago before all the condos went up in this city would have alleviated issues for everyone involved.

Can you elaborate more on how this "secondary market" would work?

> remember what they do to engineers that are over 40.

May I ask what do you mean by this? I'm an engineer entering my late 30's, what is it exactly that I have to prepare for by the time I enter my 40s?

Does the internet always have to throw a fit every time a company tries to add a little monetization to what is an essentially free service?

You can't even copy and paste the building's name to do a google search

Try making friends irl, you'll notice the difference

If you had a missing loved one would you invite them to solve it?

Is there such a thing as a "healthy" internet community? I'd argue not. So much of our society's ills these days is people not dealing face-to-face

Mobs of internet people with too much time on their hands will never be a force for good, ever.

theres a car in space tho

also bonus side dish

How much time are those "non western" people spending outside shirtless soaking in the sun?

Is there a part of this blog post where the author isn't whining about something?

Service container for one

Try watching Alex Jones

Look no further than the current political climate of the United States, no matter how noble a society there will always be a segment that will act irrationally out of fear and ignorance. That same segment of a superior alien race could easily act to destroy us.

Yeah was interested to hear what their points would be but couldn't get past when they started complaining about typescript.

Oh it's in your nature to be an anti social dork in a basement? Unfortunate for you!

Saying you're introverted is like saying you enjoy reading more than being active. Both are healthy and liking one more than the other is not an excuse not to make sure you do both regularly.

I've worked remotely and I've worked in-house and I currently work a mix of the two but only because my current company's office is quite far away from where I live.

With ten year professional experience in software in my rearview mirror I gotta say that by working remotely fulltime you miss out on so much. To be your best you really do need to be in the office collaborating and practicing your people skills. Your people skills are like any other skill, they must be practiced and sharpened each day and you really must be in the office in a professional environment to work on them. I understand life is complicated and sometimes just making a paycheque has to be enough but imo you're letting a part of you wither doing fulltime remote.

Ok, so what path has the least resistance for getting rich for a skilled developer?
