Is Meta destroying its engineering organization? 1 month ago

I have a friend that did that, in a 4y stint there, and was happy to get to one of the layoffs phase. He was fairly lucky with the stock price RSUs vs stock price(though he knew a few that were so lucky that their 100k RSUs grant at sign got to like 800k, not that lucky, but yeah, his 4 years of flying to office made him basically "I can retire whenever I please to".

Most of developers don't understand what opportunity they got into to be highly paid eng with RSUs. My friend is managing 500 people in a factory and gets salary that everyone would laugh at here...

Axios compromised on NPM – Malicious versions drop remote access trojan 4 months ago

I think the npm doesn't support end of line comments, so

  ~/.npmrc
  min-release-age=7 # days
actually doesn't set it at all, please edit your comment.

EDIT: Actually maybe it does? But it's weird because

`npm config list -l` shows: `min-release-age = null` with, and without the comment. so who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nokia N900 Necromancy 7 months ago

yeah I scooped n950 on some online marketplace for very cheap since it was bricked, fixed it and resold it for profit, but what a beauty of a phone, I wish I kept it.

Postman which I thought worked locally on my computer, is down 9 months ago

I used to use postman, before they become greedy, now I use Bruno.

But to your question - I have saved based authenticated request to our company useful APIs - github/jira/artifactory - so when I want to string together some micro tool to do something in batch, I don't have to remember where do I create API key, and how do they accept it.

Why Romania excels in international Olympiads 11 months ago

Funny how somehow in discussions in our country I always have to defend that sorting students is a good thing. A lot of people argue, that best student in average classes will still be great, and will lift the others, from my experience that is not true.

Ask HN: Why did Python win? 3 years ago

I've spent year and a half writing chef as my first "programming" job, like 6 years ago. I learned almost 0 ruby, and that's probably why ruby didn't stick that much.
