This is a great goal to strive for. But to play devil's advocate, not all ideas and scopes are clear until several iterations in. Furthermore, some software projects carry around s…

Right. I'm just saying it should be clearer. Ex: I want to have a list of accounts, netflix style, that I'm presented with on an empty chrome window. If in fact multiple identities…

I wish interfaces were more straight up about their intentions and made it easier to implement account level partitions. For work I love Google's magic tracking effects, but at 1 a…

Done this. Eventually one account always becomes my main account and I'm back to square one. I don't care enough about reddit to keep up with 2 separate accounts.

I'm logged out by default and only log in to comment, which is rare. I don't like leaving my username up for display if a friend/family member has to borrow my laptop for something…

I append "reddit" to any query not meant for a productive task. Except now the internet is mostly reddit for me, which kinda bums me out. Especially given the new js-heavy design. …

Ha, I'm sure it's different for different folks but I attribute my lack of burning out (knock on wood) to caring about what I do beyond a paycheck. That and leaving town for a week…

Which couldn't be more ok. Hacker news comes down hard on people who casually throw out their unrealistic work hours, but for some of us it's the only way we'd stay competitive. I'…

Going through this now and boy is this true. Nothing like rewriting a 1k+ lib the day before a feature is supposed to be ready and then praying you didn't blow up some other lesser…

Like all lessons, it depends on the student. Personally, the author's way of thinking has been immensely helpful. I grew up an optimist, not able to understand why others couldn't …

Not a fan of facebook, as a consumer app. But what you're saying just isn't true. This list is crazy impressive https://opensource.facebook.com/

But then how do I sell my mvp startup newsletter to all the people not capable of actually building a quality product? /s In all seriousness, it is comical how often people apply r…

It is not possible for a human being to work 20 hours a day. No exceptions.

Here's the EIP (Ethereum improvement proposal) causing problems. https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-1283.m...

Yeah, as someone who is on the extreme end of introverted (not shy, just happy to be alone) this was the case for me. I got a membership to the co-working space, did many of the so…

Here's the real problem. The JS tools got really powerful and the majority of users now experience faster dev cycles and richer features. Now users cannot go back. If we started se…

'People's health is their own concern' I disagree wholeheartedly. So many diseases today are preventable when you consider that most people take no action to improve their health t…

Well hopefully this is not a sentiment that continues to grow in the technical community. All nice things have a cost. For all the efficiency gained from the web-view, consider the…

The sad truth is that in order to bear the cost of a long time horizon in the pursuit of elegance you need one of two things: extreme trust or total control. Even then the pursuit …

Am I reading reddit? There was no reference in OP's post to the current prices.

I just tried setting it up in the latest create-react-app. The example needed some modification but did work eventually. I wouldn't recommend it.

This is fantastic advice.
