Was just talking with friends yesterday about this - Internet Computer getting absolutely dumped by the VCs who pumped it so hard from the beginning. Once I saw that they were head…

25 year-old dev in the Los Angeles area looking for like-minded devs/hackers/whatever to build with. Just tired of building things by myself, and I think it'd be fun to team up wit…

Only if there was a Gavin Belson in this version

Curious to know some of the reasons preventing others from turning their ideas/projects into businesses. I'm not at a point where I'm trying to make an actual attempt (yet), but I …

The idea of the NSA googling `lemon graph` then saying "Welp, looks like someone else already has it. Back to the drawing board", is actually pretty hilarious.

I agree with the general sentiment of the article: "In order to make money, Snapchat is doing things it previously scorned" This is particularly saddening for me because I remember…

> "this generation wasn't ready for this boom of communication we are living in" I definitely think we will look back on my generation (Generation Y) as the guinea pigs for this wh…

The UI looks incredibly good. Is this just implemented in pure JS?

I'm looking for resources/info related to the fundamentals of building a type of spreadsheet-ing software (e.g., Excel, Google Docs). Can anyone link me to any resources? Not tryin…

Hilarious quiz. Thanks for the laugh

While I agree with the general/intended sentiment of "Advertising is has changed from a bunch of slick white guys in suits, to tech", it might be worth pointing out that Don Draper…

I share the sentiment. Sadly it appears as if Spotify is pulling a Snapchat - "We know what's best for our users, their opinions be damned".

> As someone who has his genetic profile with 23andme (as well as my kids, wife, parents, etc) Well there it is. You couldn't have an objective discussion about this, even if you w…

Bingo. > "maximize shareholder value" > "utilizing its assets to their full revenue potential." That's quite literally all that needs to be said here. How people fail to see the do…

I once studied for about 48 hours (off and on) for interview at a security-related startup. After 5 rounds of interviews, not a single person asked me a single technical question. …

Can someone do a code review (whether on StackExchange or here) for my Rust TCP Server? I'd really like to know how to do this better, and any (constructive) help or criticism woul…

Github issue tracking doubling as a personal blog = effin genius

Wow. I haven't laughed that hard in a while

Can anyone point me to any code/blogs/documentation on building a robust TCP server in Rust (noob here)? I'm finding bits and pieces in the docs, but it would be great to see all t…

I like this idea of setting concrete goals.

I like this idea. Limit the time you give yourself, so that in that (relatively) small amount of time, you actually get things done and don't screw around. A slight take on the (ti…

Ahhh, I will refuse to pay the troll toll :)
