I'm actually looking for beta users! GetSetReply is a SaaS I've been building. It does two things for small businesses:

1. It helps you get more reviews by sending automated requests for reviews to your customers over SMS and/or email after they purchase from you (PoS Integrated / Manual Sending)

2. The second is helping you reply to the reviews you already have with AI-generated drafts in your brand's voice that you can send to Google/Yelp/TripAdvisor.

I'm very grateful to anyone who is willing to test or provide feedback. If you create an account (it's free with no credit card or integrations required), I'll reach out! Or you can email me via my email in my profile.

It looks like you are getting downvoted, but there is a lot of truth in what you are saying. I have lots of anecdotal evidence of my peers leaving their jobs for new ones that pay a lot more. The very senior/principal engineers have even been offered large amounts of money/stock to stay, but by that point it's too late. The best path to getting raises starting from a junior engineer is to leave for a new company. There are many benefits I can list to stay at one company (network, growth as an engineer, etc.), but promotions and pay raises aren't part of that list with few exceptions.

C02 is one of the worst 'dirty' emissions (methane is worse), and C02 is the most important gas for controlling the earth's temperature - http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/CarbonCycle/page5....

"The current episode of global warming is attributed to increasing emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases into Earth's atmosphere. " - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_in_Earth%27s_at...

Also in the first few lines of wikipedia you will see that C02 is only 0.04% of the atmosphere. This small percentage has huge effects.

Yes they do. I'm a recent App Academy graduate and everyone gets a job. There are a lot of benefits to doing a program like this versus a classical CS education. I've been programming since 8th grade, and I was a computer science major before I dropped out of college. I remember having CS professors that couldn't code themselves out of a box, but they "taught" the material they were supposed to teach. App Academy and other bootcamps prepare you for real world jobs by teaching you how to code. They also teach you data structures and algorithms- not as much as a computer science degree might, but by learning how to code, you learn how to look things up and apply them. If you're wondering if you should do it or not, it's definitely a yes. If you have any questions I would love to answer them.

I'm an App Academy graduate, and I've also been programming since 8th grade. App Academy targets the shortcomings of a CS degree by teaching people HOW to code. Students are supposed to come out of App Academy with 1000 hours of coding or 1/10 of mastery. App Academy has lectures on algorithms and data structures that aren't equivalent to a CS degree, but graduates can code, and many if not most CS students can not. These programs are very rigorous, and I can tell you without a doubt they are only growing, and certainly aren't going anywhere. If the market correct's itself, it is going to be on the "School" side, because CS degree education is broken.

I have a slight problem with the question. Math is used when programming or creating models, but both are tools. I find it hard to compare the two in the way you're asking, so I think this poll is bogus. Programming requires abstract thinking as does math at the algebra level and beyond (more so at the calculus level and beyond). Other than asking what level of math is required to program X, it's hard to ask what cognitive level quantified by mathematical ability is required because cognitive levels both aren't easily quantifiable and also don't directly correlate with mathematical ability. There are lots of ways to do the same thing.

As for me, I have taken math to the level of Differential Equations and Linear Algebra.

Cool! I'd like to share my little extension! It let's you view the cached version of a webpage with Google Cache, Coral CDN, or Wayback Machine with a click of a button.

https://github.com/Dbz/WebCache

P.S. if anyone knows how I could add more cache databases like bing cache or yahoo cache, please tell me because I couldn't figure it out.

EDIT: If anyone is willing to test the Coral CDN, I'd greatly appreciate it. For some reason Coral CDN doesn't work on my browser, so I've never tested it =`[

I don't see how this is reimagined. It offers nothing that spotify or soundcloud doesn't. It's also slower, but you're on the front page of HN, so that's forgivable, but I wouldn't wait 10 seconds for something to load if I wanted to use it regularly and there were great alternatives (check out soundcloud). There are much much more important features in a music player than real-time syncing.

I simply left the webpage after scrolling up and down a few times in confusion with my arrow keys. I don't believe I've ever missed important content after leaving from a webpage that can't give me a proper user experience.

Tangentially related: you can create a filter to search for emails with the word "unsubscribe" in them. Generally speaking I don't want to read anything with "unsubscribe" in it, and when I do, I have a nice folder for it.

24O has a half life of 65ms, so "24O isn't especially stable. If you look at that table, 23O has a half life of 82 ms, 22O is 2.25 s, and the isotopes gradually get more stable as you approach the stable 16-17-18 isotopes. If it were more stable than 23O, I would agree that it would be surprising, but that's not the case. In fact, if you look at what they did and read the abstract for the actual paper, the claimed novelty here isn't creating 24O (as others have done so before) or about how stable it is, but rather that they came up with a new technique to characterize it. The article's title is misleading." Said chaos386 on reddit

My guess is that bikes will get GPS devices put in them eventually. Then people will be able to track their routes etc. Maybe when that happens, people will be able to track their stolen bikes.
