Youtube Poops and Shreds. Two art forms of upmost beauty.
I am currently in the process of the same transformation. Joining a quant desk, where unit testing, code review and code readability are top priorities really helps a lot.

Is it an article? I think I just read a very lengthy eToro ad.

Aren't derivative posts of hacker news derivatives a bit derivative?

Same frequency here. But I still find it better than checking the news/tw/fb/yt.

Any blog posts/papers on what the best general approach to onliene reviews is?

The bear hunts me until this day.
Hi Peter, is there a way to transfer F1 to J1 visa, so that me as a SO of the F1 holder can get J2 (as a spouse) to be able to work in the US? More specifically - that would be the only reason for my SO to switch the visa type, which IMHO is not sufficient.

Czech republic is a multicultural success story?

There ain't a lot of terrorism in CZ, though the country is filled with hatred mainly towards gipsies and now muslims. Even the government in order to remain elected boycotts EU's directives about accepting migrants and anyone who's not white. I kid you not.

Come on Hacker News, less click-baity next time. This was a Buzzfeed like article in terms of generalization and Nazi references.

Hack PR removed the article about “hacking Reddit”

I thought the success depends mainly on luck.
Hi Peter,

my SO is going to the US to pursue her PhDs. She's on the F1 visa, so even as her spouse I would not be able to work there on F2 visa (if I understood it correctly). I am finishing my masters next June, currently working full time. Is it realistic for me to expect to get H1B as someone with only master degree and 18months full time work experience? Is the $130k/y limitation coming to force any time soon? Is EB1A something I should look more into?

I just started looking more into US visa, apologies if my questions are too naive. Thanks a lot for your input.

For someone unfamiliar with EB1A, what are the main prerequisites for this visa type? Also what do you think that got you this visa if I may ask?
startupjobs.cz - it's a czech job board in the IT niche. Pretty neat.

How exactly is "no need to respond" powerful? Are you getting higher response rate just because of this sentence?

Ask HN: How do I postpone my consumption of time?

It turns out, I have no problem saving money for the future, consumption in the sense of buying unneccessary stuff will probably never be an issue in my life. But I do strugle in terms of consumption of time. I prefer to consume my time now and invest it later, not the other way around. What might be the source of this discrepency and how can I correct it? Also, is it procrastination I am...
