This is really cool! I didn't know telegram was capable of these kinds of apps. How/why would customers find your store on telegram vs regular web?
I built the same thing for the same reasons as a client side web app http://patmood.github.io/scanned_look/

All the same use cases as a regular iPad. I just want it so it's easier to hold.
Yes E3 is one of the easiest, along with Canada/Mexico. Should not be an issue for any company in the Bay Area.
Re:Ask HN: I'm a terrible developer, what now? on Friday September 11, 2020 @01:49PM (#24445347)
I feel like I could have written your post, even today when I am in a fairly senior position and paid an uncomfortable amount of money. My advice for when this feeling gets overwhelming is to just put your head down and get a bit better than you used to be.

I don't mean study really hard, just learn any small new thing and over time you'll improve.

There's no rush and it's ok to be average. The fact that you say the "alternatives seem dreadful" means you are probably in the right career!

It's a simple static site with no server involved. Everything happens client side. You could turn off your internet while you're using it if you wanted to make sure no data is exposed.
Re:Show HN: Practice interview problems for front end developers on Wednesday November 29, 2017 @03:07PM (#15810360)
Great blog post. I will incorporate some of those ideas (like testing) into the challenges.

I agree that the interviewer side is a mess and one of the long term ideas for this is to create interview packages for companies to help assess and calibrate FE candidates.

To avoid any conflicts I'm trying to keep my employer out of it, but it would definitely help with reputation.

Hey thanks! I actually stayed away from those kinds of problems because they're well covered by other sites, but I'm interested in what you mean by presenting then in my way?

Do you mean algos in a practical front end context?

Thanks again for checking it out!

In the talk you say that you reduced JS and therefore lowered TTI and saw more clicks on the signup button. Is it possible that you are just _tracking_ more clicks, but the total is the same?

Does it really matter how much JS there is if it's loaded after HTML and the user can already move to the sign up step without it?

Got some examples of these micro phones? Sounds interesting!

Edit: This is from a Kickstarter - Super cheap and fits the bill https://www.amazon.com/Unihertz-Smallest-Smartphone-Android-...

This has a bit of a web front end slant. Check out https://www.acefrontend.com for another good source of practical front end challenges

Ask HN: How do you manage CSS at your company?

How does your company manage CSS with hundreds, or even thousands of developers working with it?I haven't seen this problem solved at any company I've worked for.Usually there's some attempt at an internal framework or style guide, but it's always poorly documented, not maintained, and unused. Developers just write their own CSS from scratch any time it's needed which results in bloated style...

Re:Ask HN: Do you keep a personal journal? on Thursday January 26, 2017 @05:23PM (#13495830)
Surprised https://standardnotes.org/ hasn't been mentioned. It popped up on HN a week or so ago and I've been using it ever since. Very simple, elegant solution with a focus on longevity. It's exactly what I was looking for.
Have you got an example/names of existing software? I'm interested to see what kind of features they have.
Re:Create React Apps with No Configuration on Friday July 22, 2016 @06:14PM (#12147149)
Are you still using JSX? Even a very minimal babel/webpack setup like this one has really sped up my productivity, but I'm interested in the alternatives...
Re:Death of a Programmer, Life of a Farmer on Tuesday May 05, 2015 @05:34PM (#9495095)
I'm the same, but I recently discovered that a dump of all Stack Overflow content is available for download. There's a few apps around to easily use it offline. Combine that with the "Dash" app for mac (which downloads other official docs) and it should be pretty easy to work off the grid.

Open it up in safari, then add it to your homescreen - It'll play fullscreen and behave just like a native app :)
Powerup shortcuts are 1, 2 and 3 on keyboard - I'll add some instructions. I drew every pixel and I'm not much of an artist, so definitely room for improvement there!
You just made my week. The simplicity and purity of flappy bird was a huge inspiration for this project. At least half the time was spend getting the "wobble" mechanic just right.
This is my first phaser game and I followed a step by step flappy bird tutorial to learn the basics. It's basically all the same components - scrolling background, generated obstacles, and a simple motion character. I'd love to write a tutorial for this one though.
This time last year my project VimSnake.com was in the top 3 for most of the day. I made the stats public:

I'm new to native apps and I've been struggling to find a solution to get my HTML5 game on the app store. This is absolutely incredible. Took 30 seconds and worked flawlessly! THANKYOU!
