    canada is very protective of its regulated fields. if you didn't graduate in the US or Canada, it's very hard for an immigrant to become a vet/dentist/doctor/lawyer/engineer/accoun…

    indeed you should avoid postgres if all you need is saving files on a disk. that's exactly the point. people reach for complex client side frameworks when all they need is to rende…

    half finished projects that you developed on your own don't hold that much value. They may pad those green stats, but those can be faked quite easily. It's contributions to project…

    it's at least one server (_any_ computer that never turns off) hosting things you would use (and probably pay) on a day-to-day basis. The most important point is to be available al…

    this kind of harms the appeal of a homelab. If you search youtube, you will find many creators sharing their labs. But when you look at the services they host, 80% of it is just st…

    Seconding the sentiment on this thread, I used this book to learn JS 5 years ago, and it's awesome. I've never seen another resource as good. YDKJS is more of an advanced treatment…

    For that kind of risk profile, you can't have an account anywhere (not even HN), nor a cell phone

    and that's the main issue with Canada, there's not enough houses being built. And no interest in doing so, apparently

    this strategy goes down the drain for any profession that relies on being on one of the big cities to thrive. What do you suggest for those people?

    For me it was never about speed, it’s about comfort. I always unconsciously hated having to reach for the arrow keys all the way to the right of the keyboard to select words and mo…

    I agree with most of these. This one needs to be careful though > Yoga fixes lifelong back pain that drugs, swimming obsessively, chiropractors and workouts could not fix. I'm heal…

    yeah, foods with more fiber will also make you less hungry, which in turn makes you eat less calories... CICO is a great approach for the general population, and works great even a…

    if your weight didn't change, most likely you were eating at maintenance. The fact that you have a surplus every now and then won't change your body composition. Consistency matter…

    Specially if you factor in the marginal tax you'll pay on the side gig, it's almost never worth it imo. I know that was a turn off for me at least, so starting a business if you ha…
