    I tried googling for this but got mixed results. Shouldn't the wrists be touching/resting on the desk (the piece of desk between the keyboard and me) or are they suppose to float?

    Ask HN: How do you deal with cold fingertips when you code?

    I developed this effect a few years ago, but it didn't bothered me until lately. Of course it's less noticeable in the hot days, but in general when I go out for long walks my fing…

    A jack of all trades isn't inherently better at all trades. There's great value to be found in a specialist. And if you're hiring a front-end pay him as such. If you want him to kn…

    I did the same a week ago - First tried Mint Rafaela with Cinnamon and this week I got free time to tryout Arch. Turns out their wiki is amazing and with a little google-fu I manag…

    Are you saying that listening to what you have to say and writing what you have to say on wikipedia is the same thing?

    I do this too. Especially if it links to a blog entry that is big. I might even bookmark a thread to check it later in case it's a new thread, just to see if there's going to be an…
