With that said, I'm looking for advice on how to avoid that scenario, but yet stay current with tech.

I'm not saying to use what frameworks win in popularity. The problem is; how are you supposed to know which framework/library tool is going to be the best for your project without actually trying it in said project? I've heard a lot of stories of startups going down a path of using a new library because they initally thought it would be the right tool to fit their needs, but after actually implementing it they find it was the worst decision they ever made. They inevitably end up needing to rewrite everything (eventually) using the more appropriate tool.

Keeping Up with Coding Ecosystem

Okay, this is very much a general discussion topic, but it's something I've long discussed with other engineers and I'd really appreciate HN's input. It seems like a vast amount of extremely hyped up new frameworks quickly fall off for use in real production applications. For example, Vue was extremely hyped up but React quickly won out for most real world applications. Same goes for numerous...

Agreed, this concept of making a modular, reusable, less technical code editing, and a collaborative coding environment is what a lot of engineers see as the future of development. I've heard some engineers argue that this is going to be a better way for them to collaborate with product owners and managers. I do wonder though what it would take to have companies start adopting a type of workflow using such apps...
Couldn't they have blocked it for another reason listed in their terms? Wouldn't it make the most sense to ask them in an appeal?

The saddest part is that a lot of individuals won't even consider this when seeing such content.
Aren't those ideas the ones that are always the most successful businessess too?
Cool stuff, can't wait to give it a try.

What a thoughtful response. I'd love to know which readings you'd suggest reading and in what order.

It's equally important to do the research yourself as well so that you can make more educated decisions with your attorney. I would, at least, read your local state laws in regards to this subject.

I have to agree. I mean it's not like you're the one storing the data, but you are the one giving it up by participating in using the technology at hand.
Theoretically, couldn't they still set different terms per search customer? Thus, still favoring themselves
It seems that a lot of this anti-trust content solely focuses on national competition, rather than then international playing field; even though the US is in onging direct competition with an extremely global and readily availble international tech market. I feel we need to start looking at things from a global perspective and what impact splitting up US companies would have on their growth relative to the internaional market competitors.
That's an interesting point. Yet, I'm not sure I fully understand what you'd expect would change with this?
Re:Bird raises Series D at $2.5b valuation on Monday July 22, 2019 @07:53PM (#20503332)
There's basically zero barrier to entry from both domestic and global competitors.
Re:Bird raises Series D at $2.5b valuation on Monday July 22, 2019 @07:45PM (#20503300)
Seriously, $2.5b? This is absurd.
What are the benefits if they were to purchase it? This article doesn't mention any reasoning for or against doing so.

I couldn't agree more. Personally, I've found dual booting is the best option, but since most hardware isn't optimized for this it does sometimes lead to driver problems. I really wish all computers we're optimized for multiple OS... I mean it's great on a desktop where you can have many drives, but that's not practical for laptops and partitioning really isn't the most stable option in my experience.
