Entirely subjective.

I dropped my standard hours down to 24 just recently and it's been rejuvenating. I do pick up the odd freelance/contract job whem it suits (pay/hours) and spend the rest of my time working around the house and generally relaxing.

It's done wonders for mental health and stress levels. No more sitting in traffic all day, missing half my kids' life, stressing out about not getting stuff done around the house, eatimg crap food on the fly, being too tired to do much in the weekend, and most of all I can spend more time with my wife, which is awesome.

I'm on the move do don't have any sources for you, but from what I understand php 7.x benchmarks pretty close to HHVM. I wouldn't be surprised if 7.2/3 surpasses it.

Depends on how it's written. I'd suspect they've done a pretty good job on eeping the engine as decoupled from their code as possible. It'd probably be just a matter of rewriting a translation layer.

He doesn't. You turn the feature off.

*sighs, looks down, shakes head

To 99% of the population, Bitcoin is the only crypto currency. They don't care about the other 500 alts, they don't understand them. If/when it goes mainstream, BTC will be the USD of crypto.

No matter what happens, a win for any crypto alt is a win for Bitcoin.

The reason designers use them is because 95% of their userbase values form over function.

You're obviously in the 5% which values function over form, but surely you can understand most people want things to look pretty, plus the company wants to have a cohesive brand.

I used to be a function-over-form advocate but was converted somewhere along the line after working with some awesome designers, doing lots of a/b testing and talking with the end user.

Both form and function are equally as important as each other.

Make someone rich, as is any idea.

No

This is not specific to programming, but personalities in general. There are people who love the journey and others who love the destination.

People rarely switch from one to the other. It's part of our core ideals.

However, there is a large, vocal, percentage from both these groups that will always voice their opinion against an opposition opinion. It's not a competition and there's no correct answer. It's purely subjective.

You make it sound so sexy

Proper full stack devs are rare, but they do exits, and they're worth their weight in gold to any company with under 50 staff. I've been 'full stack' my entire career but it takes a long time to actually become a competent full stack dev.

A proper full stack dev can make design and implementation decisions at all levels, while being able to visualise the affect of those changes over the entire system, in detail, at low level. They're also able to communicate these changes not only to a uber-low-level introverted developer, they're also able to sit with the CEO/CTO and rationalise their decision in terms of cost and savings.

And of course, they're able to drop anchor, exit the elevator at any level and get on the tools.

I'm not sure if a South China Sea bubble in the 18th century can really be used as a valid comparison here.

We're talking about the rise of a self-contained, decentralised currency and transactional system, all rolled into one. It literally has blatant potential to be a game changer, 100%.

In saying that, I wouldn't be surprised if it all falls apart in the short term.

The author did not cheat.

Just like sitting in a chair all your life and eating fast food until you actually have a real self induced death experience , sans adrenaline.

And what about icons?

I like the clap feature. I wasn't quite sure what to think of it at the start but it definitely better than a binary 'like'.

It gives me the ability to drop 'claps' as I'm scrolling through an article and liking certain parts. I get to the end and there's a total of however-many claps I've clapped.

I hope medium are tracking the position each clap was made, along with certain things like if a user genuinely read the article - opposed to those who just clapped from the front page or at the top of the article without scrolling.

This is what I do. Friend of a friend is a dealer. He's at the auctions every other day. I just put in an order with him and he'll call me when he finds something good. I trust him. Having had a bad deal yet. Charges $400.

I'd highly suggest doing some serious research into wherever you're putting you money. Don't go throwing it around at trends if you don't have, at minimal, a fundamental understanding of how they work.

Onboarding green devs into anything more than a simple Vue app is a lot more complex than a React app of similar complexity, from my experience.

The simplicity of the nested, inception style architecture of React makes it super easy to onboard and up-ramp.

Same goes for surfing. Your life will start revolving around weather patterns and swell forecasts.

I might be able to provide some insight here. I live at one of the most crowded and user-friendly surf spots on the planet. There's constantly hundreds of people in the water fighting for waves.

The one thing I noticed mostly is how many people come here and just cannot get waves, while there's tens of kilometres of empty beach within 5 minutes drive.

They could literally go anywhere and get a few waves but they choose here and get nothing (except annoyed).

It either comes down to not knowing any better or thinking they're better than they are... often both.

My advice is to go exploring and find a less crowded spot. You may not need to go to the most popular spot to find waves.

I agree.

For an advanced surfer they're great as a 'reset', forcing you focus on fundamentals like weight distribution flow through manoeuvres.

The only problem is if you ride them for too long you start to lose your timing.

Love the shortboard but gotta reset sometimes.

Aircraft are not assigned to the same routes at the same times every day. They're chopped and changed all the time. It's impossible to have different configurations for different aircraft.

You didn't pay for any space. You paid for the use of a seat for that particular flight.

Like the thousands of unemployed people? Some haven't eaten for years.

That's not what he means, just like that's not what you mean.

So I'm supposed to pack up my computer, a couple of monitors, my notebooks and stationary and move it all whenever the noise levels are distracting me from focussing?

Sounds efficient.

Semantic markup is for computer to categorise and file. The easier google can figure out what your page is trying to do, more efficiently it can serve it into the right hands.
