I found out that the author had a lot of free time (otherwise, how can you justify the learning/testing the platforms?). That is incredibly good for himself to learn all of them but seriously, why?

If my company pays for it, yes
I believe they got so much funding because they are coming from Google, not for the product itself. They could have sold even crap hardware.

Re:Are developer certifications worth it nowdays? on Thursday August 23, 2018 @06:27AM (#17826053)
they've always been only money burners, because certifications are tight to specific technologies, that gradually are disappearing with the time (Think to all those MSCE Windows Server 2000, 2003 or old RedHat ones).

They are totally pointless nowadays.

I'm happy that they are having this problem, perhaps leading them to reduce their monthly fee instead of increasing it deliberately. It's annoying me that you should hold multiple accounts to watch "exclusives" on specific platforms, making it really expensive, especially for young people.

Sharing a password is (and should not be labelled as) a crime, because it is similar to sharing a bus ticket: if I can let my friends use it, why shouldn't I do it?

Apple has also user data..as for Facebook and Google..you just don't know it
Re:Where did the Microsoft tech stack disappear? on Wednesday August 01, 2018 @08:52AM (#17661996)
true...Zalando and Facebook use PHP but they aren't worth for this classification.

That's blatant bloggging

Re:Ask HN: How do you know if a moonshot is worth it? on Tuesday July 31, 2018 @04:56AM (#17651598)
Just try to shoot short and often. You never know if it's worth it or not.

Adjust the target and then go for the big one

Re:The Blockchain Bubble Will Pop, What Next? on Monday July 30, 2018 @05:51AM (#17643289)
The bubble is about to pop because we're seeing only examples which are still far away from reality and that until now are useless.

I don't think it exists, but really it takes you less than 2 hours of code to figure out what to do, if you're already in C++ or Python. These Frameworks expose C++ and Python API

Re:Why Discord Is Sticking with React Native on Friday July 27, 2018 @05:12AM (#17624599)
Yeah, keeping a fork of it does the trick, but it means you have to watch your back from React's unstable APIs, changing too fast
Stick with the 1. option. Look for open issues on GitHub/GitLab and start contributing with whatever you feel pleased of.

You'll gain new friends, find a mentor and learn new skills, even soft ones.

Tip: try with some Linux distribution (Manjaro, Ubuntu, etc.)
