    Seconded. There's definitely something deeper going on here, and I'm so excited to see it.

    Hey! I want to formally apologize -- the company I heard presenting had a name very, very similar to yours. Definitely was not the same company. Unfortunately it's past the 2 hour …

    Hey all! I had the chance to see everyone from Fly.io at Hack Arizona -- they gave a presentation before the hackathon began. That presentation displayed the worst work/life balanc…

    The original blog post is a pretty fantastic piece in support of teaching humanities in CS, I'd say!

    I know a ton of people who use Cash App's card for that. Seems like it works well for them. (I don't use it personally)

    I wouldn't really call APL/J/K "lost" (or "dead", or "useless", or...). There's an active community on Reddit and there's a pretty active circle of APL'ers on Twitter. It wasn't ev…

    For memorizing lines? Chew a piece of gum. I've found that it takes the emphasis away from my location in my mind and places some emphasis and connection with the feeling of chewin…

    Right now, the system works on a black and white "I was satisfied with this answer"/"I wasn't satisfied with this answer". If too many users note that they were continually unsatis…

    Lyfevest seems more geared towards enterprises, and the subscription will have to be EXPENSIVE to justify all-you-can-post questions. I don't think that's friendly to hobbyists and…
