Hey!

Being a penny pinching student, do you guys offer any discounts for students?

It was mentioned in the article about the lack of formal education (specifically within the field of study) within software development. I would be curious to see what this would be like for a HN audience? What is everybody's story of how they got to where they are?

Tesla Model S:

0-60: 2.8 sec Top Speed: 155mph Range: 337 miles

Not anything more than various blog posts or web articles that I've read. I should have been more clear that I was mainly speaking from a personal perspective and what I, and those around me, have discussed and experienced. Sorry for being misleading.

I think the more dangerous problem than being addicted to it, is the affect it can have on you even if you are only on it for a few minutes a day. I find social media causes people to only see the best parts of other people lives and therefore wonder why their life is not that great, and than theres a nice downward spiral of discontent and depression.

Social media, used by some only to keep in contact is okay, but the subconscious comparison of your real life to others social media life, can be really harmful.

No you cant sign into any other accounts with facebook, well you cant without reactivating it. If you sign into a deactivated facebook account even into a game, or something similar, it will count that as a account sign in and reactivate your account. If you fully delete your account, you wont be able to sign in at all.

> Its fuel economy potentially matches that of a diesel engine without high emissions of nitrogen oxides or sooty particulates.

This makes sense, a much better way to do things.

Interesting, thanks for sharing that.

I didnt know this as the only mobile I have dabbled with has been game dev with android in which case assets are the main cause of bloat.

I think a large factor is the ever increasing need to have different display sizes for different pixel densities, developers essentially have to create and package a couple versions of the same application into one package and that is alot of waste.

> In general, no one cares. No one cares if you're partially wrong, no one cares if you're a little off or awkward, no one beyond your family/SO and close friends gives a flying fuck about your emotions.

Took me awhile to figure this one out, but once I did, life was significantly better.

Why would he try to hide his motives? He has made it very publicly clear that his only life goal is to colonize mars to "save the human race".

He "just wants to complain".

Okay and I very much agree that this is a problem, but that is an entirely different problem that needs to be addressed with a less corrupt law system. Not related to using prisoners to work instead of letting them rot in a cell.

No, the prison uses the money they make from the sales for the prison, that was in the article. Haystack would still have bought the milk for standard price, and sell their cheese at standard price. The extra money from the cheap labor when into the prison itself.

What about the argument that they are provided "free to them" food, shelter and clothing? And therefore them working for very small amounts of money, is really them paying for those things.

You are promoting illegal activity.

You acting like those inmates didn't put themselves there? Oh I feel so bad for them that they made the choice to break the law.

I can agree 1000% with this

Whats your definition of better

this is an oddly specific set of tasks

I think it is up to the university to teach the students more theoretical topics and up to the students to either learn more technical topics on their own, or learn them quickly during the start of entering the workplace.

Anyone know what they have to stop people from just ordering/returning a new set of clothes every week??
