    A couple of friends and I created this site when we saw dozens of our friends get laid off due to COVID-19. At first it was a google spreadsheet where people left a blurb about the…

    Yea it’s really quite wild and an exciting application of the ‘programmable money’ concept. Did some more reading. Thanks for the rundown.

    Wow this sent me down a rabbit hole. How are the transactions composed, with a smart contract/s, in combination with Dex API’s?

    As someone who uses a SPA (React) for webapps - I find it very useful. I run into issues that wouldn't happen if building purely html/css/vanilla js and when that happens I fix the…

    It is very much like Catch-22 - which I have to say i don’t think I ever finished (was too young to really get it). I do remember some of the absurdities making me chuckle. My fami…

    Interesting - I read in Polish but not as well as English. I imagine there could be a lot of good wordplay that is missing. Maybe one day I’ll try and pick up the Polish version

    The Good Soldier Svejk by Jaroslav Hašek - this book is pee-in-your-pants funny. A Czech satire about WWI. Definitely shines a light on the absurdity of war and various institution…

    It sounds to me like you're burnt out. I think it might be helpful (if possible) to take a break completely for yourself, in a new environment - even if it's 3-7 days. No work, no …

    Basic Civics, Finance & Economy should definitely be required courses in HS. When I talk to older people they generally tell me they had these classes, and are surprised they're no…

    Nice resources here.. I'll add this Udemy course to the list: https://www.udemy.com/the-complete-elixir-and-phoenix-bootca... Does anyone have recommendations for specific Phoenix …

    I don't disagree but that's not the point - the point is there is room for improvement, particularly at large organizations (which still have the most impact on the world). Even at…

    A union of developers is a good idea IMO. Developer's are well compensated for their work (generally) - but it's common to hear how their ideas are suppressed. I've been thinking a…

    Thanks! I was looking at both and Vue was definitely a lot easier to work with and less finicky. Love the fact that you can just link a script and play - it's also supposedly more …

    While I don't necessarily agree with the tone of this piece - I do think that there seems to be a general preference to solving '1st world problems' in the tech industry. The thing…

    Hey cool project OP - how do you feel about the inclusion of Vue. Just curious about your general thoughts because I'm thinking of incorporating either React or Vue into my own web…
