I go even further and ask Claude to generate code with 0 comments. I then read the code and add them myself. It forces me to decrypt all the weird looking stuff and understand it. The comments then only land on things that actually need them

Same here, I have issues with Github, giving me 500s when loading the page, new pushed commits not showing up...

The only way for me to find these stories is to use HN Algolia and sort by most popular in the last 24 hours. I guess lot of people do the same

I wonder what kind of dirt that could be, if he's already a known child rapist.

Please use 16px font size on mobile so the browser won't zoom in to the text field
So much this. It's a perfect match for React. Let's you keep data/logic out of the components, 0 boilerplate, optimized renders (similar to what react compiler will do...).

You can even use tanstack-query to get all/most of its benefits. (by using its core package instead of react-query)

You previously answered me that getting H1B without a degree is a thing, but one has to have their work history well documented. Could you please expand on what involves? What if the companies someone worked at no longer exist? Thanks
4k 32" is 77% less pixels than 5k 27". That many pixels make night and day difference in text sharpness

MobX is not that known unfortunately. It kills me inside.
Documented meaning I need to have all my previous job contracts/documents? What if the companies don't exist anymore?
How common are H1Bs for people without a degree but with 12+ years of experience? Is that a legit thing?
Thank you. These tips are great. Offtopic but I love your simplistic website
It's not completely unreasonable point. I do see it's a very different type of work compared to mine. But I learned that life is not about doing something you love, but learning to love what you do. So I'm game to try something new.
Thanks! Those Cloud Guru courses look great and are also much more affordable than those from Linux Foundation. Replying to your other comment - yup, I do plan to get my hands dirty, either on my pet project or by helping out my DevOps colleague.

I wanna ask - how deep should I know Linux? I bought this crazy book years ago, Linux Programming Interface, which is clearly overkill. Do you have some recommendations there? Thanks again.

Ask HN: How do I transition to DevOps after 10 years of front end?

After 10 years of doing frontend I feel like I'm hitting a career ceiling. Overall, frontend is being looked down upon and I don't want to be considered a second class citizen anymore. I also don't have a CS degree so it's an uphill battle.But I love tech and learning stuff. I'd like to spend the next year or so studying to transition to a DevOps role. I know SQL on a OK level, did some...

Great work of course but damn I could not look at those all day, they look so repulsive. Same as Factorio biters :]

That's very true, I stand corrected. I see people tuning their prompts for hours on public MJ channels

> require hours of refinement

Not disagreeing with your comment but this is not the case with Midjourney. Very little is needed to produce stunning images. But afaik they modify/enhance the prompts behind the screen

Yes, you need to use --v 4 parameter to use the latest version
Re:I am frustrated with Stable Diffusion on Saturday December 10, 2022 @05:32AM (#33931491)
Try Midjourney instead. It's miles ahead. Very little is needed to get amazing results. You just set the theme and let it run wild.

Try MidJourney instead. Very little is needed to get amazing results. You just set the theme and let it run wild. Or you can also be very specific and it will handle it.

The landing page says every course starts free but it's only intro "overview" videos I can watch. None of the actual content can be seen before paying.
What prompt you used to ask that? I can't make it say such a thing. Maybe they updated it

Offtopic but it kills me Khan Academy doesn't hire outside the US. Would love to work for them
