How did you find the proof? Its interesting
What is the purpose of engineering blogs? Is it only to attract engineers to work for you?
Can the general public view these videos some point in the future?
This is an oft repeated suggestion. But the problem is that, there is very little step by step commentary on these codepens. Its mostly only the final step that is presented. I tried recreating some and then got stuck with finer points of positions, margin-auto etc. Thats when I realised I need to solve some advanced CSS puzzles. Thanks anyways!

I am looking for question like :1) How would you transform this div from middle of page to end of page etc
2) Why is this div only 20px height even though the image inside is 100px height
3) Given this moderately complex CSS, how will you add a extra text div of dimensions 20px * 30px and how will you style it with minnimum classes.Something like this:...
Neat idea. I would definitely use it, if you promise that that experts would NOT be from low cost countries like India, Romania etc (why? Because as a person from these countries, I want to learn parenting methods from advanced countries.)

It depends on whether the person is on L-1 visa or H-1 visa. If L-1, I can't help. But if its H-1, In all probability, the guy is just afraid of interviewing outside. As someone mentioned below, changing job is tough but not very tough.
Please tell them to seek outside jobs.

Who is this CEO? Any guesses?
So, pertinent question. I want to move my account to a bank which gives me an API so I don't have to deal with Plaid or Mint. I.e. I want data privacy. I want to build a personal dashboard of where my money is going.
Any suggestions?
Cool project. What is the end goal? A Lifestyle business? Only search by keywords?
I am building a website called interviewblindspots. Website provides code feedback with interviews in Mind. Its a large market so thats a plus. It aims to be a onestop solution for interview preparation (in short term) and a CS curriculum (in long term).
I am a backend engineer by profession so I am having lots of problems with Frontend, Specifically CSS. If you are interested/intrigued in the idea, send me a mail (Email in profile).

So, Is there a bank which provides a easy to use API or digital wallet, which then lets me download my banking data and lets me write (personal)apps around it?I am looking for something that lets me
1) Set limits on a per merchant basis, not on a per category basis.
2) Send me OTP alert if its a credit card amount beyond a certain amount (My teenage kid uses a addon card.)Someone asked...
Yep. Need help with frontend skills. Mostly CSS. Idea is to build a code review site specifically focusing on blindspots in interviews. If interested, email in profile.
Does anyone know how to print the blog post. Storing it as a pdf only saves first page, not the entire conent.
Well, google cannot make their product with MS stack. But you can! So everyone using MS office online can use your product.
Even though Google docs is free, Notion is making enough money to keep it sustainable. You can do something similar.

So, I was wondering how to build a competitor to Google. We have Common Crawl and Internet Archive. Distributed systems is pretty well understood. How would one go about buiding a search engine in 2019?Would you do what duckduckgo did, which is to use some body else's index and ranking or would you just build your index from commoncrawl? How are Ecosia and Startpage.com able to stay profitable...

I want to build my own "smart display". But I do not want to use Android (because I do not want to learn a new set of tools). I want to use linux and its tools for programming.Does anyone here know of a good linux based Tablet or a photo frame that can be modded/hacked for my purposes.
When was the last time you changed your email address?
Asian Active Learning? Never heard. Can you explain more?
Was not aware of Grails before. Will check it out.
Thanks for the tip on JSP. I will look into it.
All big companies have HUGE java teams/projects.
Its battle tested for distributed systems, has legions of developers who can do any task you ask for. Java is where the big bucks are.

I am looking for a Django like framework for java based web project. It is a standard CRUD web-app but I need the project to be in Java because existing libraries are all in Java.Is Spring still a good option for this? Which Java framework has good templating support?
Can someone here explain why companies pay only 40% of US salaries in India? One person from my team is leaving for India soon. He is paid $200k/yr currently in Bay area. But he is being offered INR50 lakhs which is roughtly $80k USD. What stops MS from paying something like $120k USD (converted to INR) because fully loaded costs in US (with FICA taxes) is abot $250K?
Especially, if the quality is the same in both places?
Yes. It does affect. If I, the buyer, determine that your code needs to signifcantly rewritten to fit my needs/systems, I will be willing to pay less money. Instead, I may want to build it myself.
Coloring this book would be fun but someone needs to suggest what colors to use. To a backend engineer like me, the only colors that exist are black and white (Terminal colors) :(
Seeing if someone has already done that. Web scraping costs money, amazon may rate limit/block me etc
