News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Right, but if you read the article, they are asymptomatic with signs of lung damage and probably neurological damage as well from other studies on covid coming out from multiple sources. They are going to suffer long term consequences from Florida's general ignorance. There is no treatment yet, but if your child isn't infected and you have the means, then you should leave Florida and go to a state where they are smarter about social distancing and safety.

Don't arrest them, just fine them an obscene amount to make it unsustainable for them to stay open with the extra cost.

Needs 4 wheels to be considered a car. Nice trike though.

npm build does work for this on osx and neither does the website... what a busted app. How did this make it to front of hacker news?

Same money running a fast food joint? You're underpaid bro or you know some crazy overpaid fast food managers. People from science based fields are coming to computer science because those other fields lack job opportunities at competitive pay.
Number of french speakers in the world... 76 million. Number of english speakers... 1.5 billion. It should be CUT, fuck the french and bad acronyms.

Should've gone with Lust it's way better than Risp.

use ripgrep it's faster https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep and appropriately named

Armin Ronacher creator of Flask lucumr.pocoo.org
If they are teaching Ruby and Javascript, then that must be a web development specific bootcamp. Javascript is a must for web, Ruby is a solid backend choice with very high readability.

lol you think pages in the 90s loaded instantly? No, poor design doesn't have to do with loading time. CSS load time is minimal.

Why does lwn.net look like its straight out of the 90s? Poor ugly duckling... surely there is a designer out there willing to give you some love.

@wezm You should checkout Enlightenment windows manager over Arch Linux I think it'll be right up your alley based on your preferences https://www.enlightenment.org/

Terminology, the Enlightenment terminal is better than iterm2+Karabiner imo especially when you consider Karabiner doesn't properly work on Sierra.

Programming isn't hard, it is super easy. Most of the things we ask machines to do are sequences of simple steps. It's so easy in fact that children do it successfully with little training. Programming well can be hard but only because of the limitations of our current tools. Rust is a good step in the direction of safer systems programming and the people who are hyped about Rust are the smartest people in the room, just like with Bitcoin when it started.
It's the default case in the USA, not sure about other countries. The contract has to specifically sign over ownership.
ReactJS is currently the fastest, most scalable frontend solution available so compared to all that has come before it, it can seem heavy handed. But if you want to build highly scalable apps like Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Reddit and Twitter mobile, then losing easy speed gains with every one of the hundreds to thousands of components you build is unacceptable.
I have problems with interview anxiety too. Fortunately, you don't need to be good at interviewing or algorithms to be a successful software engineer. I think a lot of the good companies realize good interviewing skills and good programming skills don't go hand in hand. Interview practice can be helpful, but my suggestion is to get into actively developing open source software and add significant code contributions to projects. People care about actual code you have in production, contributing to major open source projects is an easy way to get your code in production and tested across millions of servers. The kinds of companies you ultimately want to work for care far more about what you have actually done code-wise outside of the interview far more than any trivial test they could possibly give you in an interview. If your contributions are significant enough, companies stop asking you to do those lame technical interview tests altogether and just hire you.

Thought they'd make this challenge more challenging but I reckon anyone who does solve this is pretty smart and worth hiring for them. Remember its government so they aren't getting or even looking for the best of the best... they don't pay enough for the best.
