I've freelanced for 15 years. Every month it's the same routine: check my time tracker, open Xero, manually create an invoice, try to remember what "Client X - 2.5hrs" actually mea…

It really depends on the code. To find a CSS bug, yes easy peasy. To find a logic hole in a payment integration of what someone has missed or should have implemented but didn't (eg…

I'm not sure code reviews hold much merit. I've been a web developer for around 12 years and I've worked in companies big and small. I think there should be a manual QA process to …

Honestly sounds like correlation vs causation. I doubt doubt Elixir is amazing - it is. But maybe the old code was just written poorly from a performance perspective, and then they…

Interesting to see what the Government will focus their time on. Obama outrightly said recently that it's clear that a significant portion of the US (and outside of - namely Austra…

Have a read of the Alfred website and your questions will be answered.

Care to expand?

Correct, but I prefer to understand the actual downtime experienced by people over the years (eg data centre issues, network issues, unplanned server maintenance) as that data seem…

That’s great! My experience back in the day with them was the same

What’s everyone’s server provider of choice when it comes to minimal downtime? I have 20 servers on Vultr in Sydney and they’re mostly reliable with a few hiccups over the years bu…

It'll be interesting to see how Square reacts to this, and how much traction and market share this builds over the next 12 months, if any.

You must be fun at parties

This doesn't look finished, there's still dummy data on the startup pages?

Do you mind expanding on why this is important? As @ezfe says below, it's a public key.

Yeah, but not really the point I was making.

You make great points, obviously focused on the UX portion. I definitely agree. TikToks algorithm is just amazing too, incredibly personalised. Borderline addictive app. A huge rea…

Do you say the same to HN?

Worth noting also that "ApolloDigital" cofounder and writer of the article is also the Head of Content & SEO for "Tallyfy". So not sure that constitutes as a client, nor take full …

Has anyone used it for any car-related mods? I share my passion between coding and cars so I'd love to push some boundaries there if anyone has tried before? Gauage display from se…
