    Alright, since this is not the first time I see this: what the deal about people from Austin trying to shoo people away? As if Austin was really that great and everybody wanted to …

    Ask HN: Are there companies out there not doing whiteboard algorithm interviews?

    bs. This makes it sound like these companies like Apple are harming the Chinese. I came from a developing country and I can tell you right now many people have to do much worse job…

    Why would I prefer to plug and play (and toss away) micro, modular libraries/frameworks designed to interop or to be independently used instead of using a monolithic technology tha…

    What a hypocrite. You can joke dirty publicly, but when it comes to 2 friends making private jokes with one another, you become Joan of Arc, a heroine, an activist. Well "calculate…

    Don't know about Rails, but I'm building a MVP using Node.JS and hosting a free dyno. Can handle 250 reqs/s for dynamic requests (i.e. full stack, Postgres, Redis, Jade, Express et…

    The author is a developer, not a designer. And I don't see the point of trying to persuade people to not listen to her because she's among the awful designers although they already…

    I came from a developing country and among the things I miss about it is low cost phone, cable and internet. Basically $25/month vs $150 I'm paying now for pretty similar quality o…
