Attention to details that matter and knowing what to pass on, is what's important. If they did poorly on the important stuff but then point out the typo, clearly they were putting …

Sadly I've seen this kind of interviewing from lots of places; maybe it's a technique they teach in college or something. Interview questions like this are useless as they are not …

Very cool. Probably pointless but it's so neat I feel compelled to try to find a use for it :)

Any framework that requires me to learn custom syntax, is a problem in my opinion. I agree with the author that the browser is already the framework, and a powerful one at that. I …

Interesting; good to know.

I've been running this web server for over a year with no stability issues like that. The app itself shutting off was the biggest issue, but the alarm plugin reboots it whenever th…

Glad you like it! The phone serves everything. In this case Cloudflare will be helping with some caching, but it's not required. Edit: actually looking at the logs, it looks like C…

Author here. What boiling water doesn't take care of all that ;)

Author here. I'll admit that I have made limited use of AI for helping in areas that I'm less familiar with (like FTP protocols), but I haven't paid a dime; all free plan. I'll use…

Author here. Qik is the name I've given to the project. It's pretty clear on all the pages that it will always be free, and that there's no reference anywhere to any crypto service…

Author here. All good points from this point and its replies, which to me says best to me that not all products and experiences are equal, so proceed based on your comfort level. N…

Hold the submitter to a higher standard by introducing penalties for errors, and/or incentives for clean PRs. In my opinion a PR should be flawless once submitted, as the dev shoul…

If you want to buikd and distribute something B2B or just to friends or colleagues outside of the app stores, it's a nightmare on iOS. Sideloading isn't as simple anymore for Andro…

Personally if I see a PR that's not readable, I send it back immediately without much of a read-through. AI or not, the code should be readable or it's not maintainable by people o…

Yes, very familiar. I think it might be ok though, as it's similar to a web search where you maybe need to refine it a few times. Just assume that the first answer may not be fully…

You may want to offer a page credits option instead, as "50 pdfs" for the free tier is a little vague. Is that 50 1-page pdfs, or 50 100 page pdfs? We generate our pdfs one page at…

Totally agree that creating something to reproduce the issue is a big turn off when it comes to reporting bugs; what else can one do though? In your case though, I guess it was a p…

Well-written and valuable for insight whether you have similar personal experience or not. As someone who does hardware and software as well, I relate to the challenges of making s…

I store my data in the service worker cache, so I guess I'm immune to this issue

Service workers solve the cache issue; web apps can run permanently offline after initial load. You may be a bit out of date on the state of the web.

Service workers allow you to control cache in web apps; you may be a bit out of date. There are hardware APIs for some stuff that only works in native (cors, raw tcp), but 99% of a…

I do but I feel it's long overdue for replacement. I've been working on a new protocol that includes timestamp filtering, real-time notifications, and optional things like 'likes' …

A self-hosting ecosystem with apps and services to do everything from file sharing, to email, and dynamic DNS. It's Javascript based and runs in node, but I've also got it running …

I'm not sure I can accept the findings of this article. It seems to me that all the concerns and issues can be summed up to bad design. A mini framework should be designed to be ea…
