    Ask HN: How do you build a healthy code review culture?

    I don't use email to have lengthy period conversations.. Didn't even know it was a thing until now! Almost all of my conversations are over chat and my primary usage of email is to…

    In my case, yes absolutely you can say that. I don't use Facebook so that I can remain ignorant to a different personality that my friends and family have over there. To give an ex…

    I don't use Facebook. But I'm noticing these trends elsewhere - in online Ads. I was browsing for "interesting things" on Amazon recently, one such thing was a hand powered torch l…

    I'm actually exploring the usage of Redlock in one my projects and the first question I've is - How can you count on a program to end in a given time? That feels similar to Halting…

    Ah I do this with if() block folding in Vim. In this case, the developer actually has return statements inside some if blocks. A general point that has stood out from all comments …
