    that's vuejs shorthand for binding the attribute to a variable (or a js value). i.e. show is bound to the value of showRight placement is read as "right" width is set to be the int…

    I had the strangest interaction with the Messenger app a few months ago. I was spending time with friends, and I took a few pictures of all of us (didn't send them through either F…

    I'm not a hardcore JS dev, but it probably has to do with the speed of objects vs. arrays. In most languages, arrays are significantly faster (because they're basically one contigu…

    I'm finding this comment thread to be a great example of the idea that everyone has different and particular learning styles. 6 comments, 4 different git tutorials (not counting th…

    I recently found a newsfeed eradicator extension that hides the newsfeed whenever you visit Facebook but still let's you check groups, message, and see notifications. I've found it…

    My assumption about basic income was always that at it's core, it provides the money for food and shelter. This reduces bureaucratic overhead in terms of trying to provide people t…

    I think it's reasonable to argue that it's less of an either/or and more of a self-defeating cycle. Lower class life -> desire to escape -> worse habits -> lower class life and so …

    Huge fan of Vue.js. Clean, lightweight, very easy to learn, use and build powerful functionality with.

    I think the keyword is significantly. If Uber tripled or quadrupled their prices, I think they'd be fairly vulnerable to regional competitors. Even an increase of 1.5x seems like i…

    thanks. I've seen that before, but for some reason I kept assuming that it was different than an actual k interpreter because none of their docs refer to the K language.

    Slightly unrelated question - where would I find an interpreter for K so I can start playing around with the language?

    I understand what you're saying, but my argument is that the 5K in credits are actually of fairly low value to the startups getting office hours, because they don't have real profi…

    generally speaking as a startup, I'm not hyper-worried about spending 5K in hosting costs and unless you're an entirely social/pre-revenue startup, by the time you're spending 5K i…

    Yeah that was the first example I thought of too in terms of recent cautionary tales. I think there are some key differences though, namely that as a Life Science company, the scru…

    I don't know where I stand on this. To be raising such ridiculous amounts, they must have some incredible technology to demo. If they're anything close to what the second demo vide…

    I'd argue that "smarter" is too 1-dimensional of a scale here. A good manager/CEO hires people smarter than them in certain skills - ie an engineer with lots of backend/software ar…
