Ask HN: Testing Code Changes Against Production
I’m currently reaching out here to see if anybody has any advice on testing code prior to pushing to production. I write unit / integration tests to make sure code is as correct as possible, but I don’t have any way of actually testing it against real, production traffic to know for sure.Writing a unit / integration test for every potential edge case doesn’t seem scalable - wondering if there’s...

My partner and I started this project after I had a really bad experience trying to get out of an existing car lease. I either had to cough up the remaining lease amount up front, which was thousands of dollars I couldn't afford, or try to trade it. The two main competitors in the trading space required an upfront payment just to list my vehicle, with no guarantees of a take-over.

I wanted to get your feedback on an app that my girlfriend had prototyped in invision.The gist is that it's a dating app that focuses on description and text to match with people rather than pictures. The idea is that you match with each other based on whether or not you like the other...
Ask HN: Company asks to BYOD. Is it a red flag?
I recently got hired at an early stage YC startup. I was told to bring my own device for development. I haven't been able to find good information for this on Reddit/HN so wanted to make a post about it.I was wondering if asking employees to bring their own devices was considered a red flag? It seems strange because they are already paying such a high salary that it doesn't make sense that...
