Never understood the emacs pinky thing to be honest. From like week 1, years ago, i realized i have to have the C- modifier in a better place.. You just remap caps-lock to ctrl and you are done.

Sorry but this is a bit dumb. If you say YES to this question: "Can you use an always online trusted third party?" Regardless of your other answers, it always says NO as a result.

Can someone give me an example of an always online trusted third party, and also let me know that how can you see into the future so that this third party keeps its guarantees throughout life?

Edit: flagging this post as it seems like a troll attempt to me

Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2017) on Thursday February 02, 2017 @04:31AM (#13549256)
Mendix | Scala Developer, Software Engineer - Infrastructure, Test Engineer - Infrastructure, Cordova/Phonegap Developer | Rotterdam, The Netherlands | ONSITE, VISA, FULL-TIME | https://www.mendix.com

At Mendix we want software to be delivered faster, cheaper and better so companies can innovate with IT and we're building the platform to do that. Our sweet spot is business focussed web apps. We compete with force.com and offer cloud based frictionless visual programming & deployment. We are HQ'ed in Boston but R&D is in the Netherlands. Company is about 250 people and we received $40M of VC funding.

So as far as I can give information about the above positions, I can talk about my team(Which is the infra). I'm a part of the 10 person strong Cloud team which works with AWS, Golang, Java, Python, Postgres, Cloud Foundry. We build an enterprise grade hosting platform which runs thousands of apps with many more to come. We're looking for Testers as well as Junior and Senior Developers with an interest or background in Systems. Besides that we have many other open positions in R&D, some i listed at the title, other from Software Development Managers, Product Managers https://www.mendix.com/company/join-our-team/ We typically have 1 phone screen, 1 interview, a take home assignment + on-site review and a meet the team and management session. We offer relocation and have the first interview via Skype if you are not based in NL. You can email me at emir.ozer at company domain, I'll forward you to the right people if you are not applying to a cloud related position.

Bit of a misunderstanding here, I was referring to LinkedIn's feature of Export Profile as PDF
I don't really get the reasoning behind the downvotes. Still on topic enough to have a discussion about. Someone care to elaborate ?
Looks nice but gonna be a bit off topic and ranty, I really don't want to bother about resumes and their formats anymore. Is it really not acceptable to give a LinkedIn URL when asked for a resume, or as a recruiter if you see my LinkedIn profile, why do you still ask a resume? I think it looks well enough to replace any resume in any format, and its generally available. (of course if you don't choose to limit it to only 1st level connections)

Farsighted Note: I am aware of PDF export feature, but its very ugly..

This is very impressive, well done!
Re:F– you startup world on Wednesday October 12, 2016 @06:09AM (#12691604)
I had a naive assumption that if I post something that has been submitted before, it would auto upvote the last recently submitted topic...

On the other hand, does it really matter how many times something is reposted, as long as it gets upvotes? It naturally means that people are interested in it.

Re:Show HN: GUI for writing Elasticsearch queries on Thursday October 06, 2016 @09:15AM (#12652143)
I guess its a tad bit late ?

https://github.com/elastic/sense

EDIT: I watched the complete demo, seems more smart than sense. (in terms of query building)

It is quite obvious that its a joke, with the fork bomb and the response...
Re:Jepsen: Crate 0.54.9 version divergence on Tuesday June 28, 2016 @06:30PM (#11998089)
I try and find engineers whose job is to run that distributed datastore in production with a scale similar to my case. Chances are really high that even in a related IRC one can find someone for any database. And just ask for their experiences.

I actually really like this outcome of 20k going to charity :)
Re:A Protocol for Dying on Friday April 22, 2016 @03:52AM (#11547644)
Thank you for the info! But I also think that this will not get a lot of coverage, if I need to learn this address from a comment in HN.. Hope it does somehow..
Re:A Protocol for Dying on Friday April 22, 2016 @02:51AM (#11547470)
Pieter, in the article you wrote "Think of the Children" and wanted readers to write stories, which is a really nice idea.. How about we think of the children and donate some money? Is it possible to share a donation address/endpoint ?

Cool idea! But man, Gary Bernhardt's WAT talk, even though i saw it at least 10 times, still cracks me up...
Re:Show HN: I made an interactive Bootstrap 4 cheat sheet on Thursday April 21, 2016 @09:53AM (#11542107)
As a person who doesn't understand a single thing about front-end, I really appreciate the existence of bootstrap, especially when I need to just put an OK looking dashboard together...

PS: for the sake of sharing http://bootswatch.com/
