I haven't faced any of the issues that you talked about. That said, we sort of "get" angular and write proper angular code because we actually understand it well enough. I have seen code in projects which are outright crap. For example, we don't do any DOM manipulations whatsoever in any of our controller code. There were no major hacks that I can recall of.

One thing I agree with is the useless stack traces which made is extremely hard to debug Angular.

The answer to this is more competition between companies. Uber is enjoying temporary market dominance.

There's a lot of stuff here that I agree with.

I feel the web components hype in particular to be pretty bizarre, though I feel it's died down recently. Too often the current generation of web people refuse to acknowledge how much has come before as far as Dojo/YUI etc.

What use is a component when every design wants it to look different? Consider the effort it would take to make the native chrome [type=date] datepicker styled however your site desires. That's a relatively low-controversy component compared to tab selectors, pill selectors, who knows what. At some point, it feels better to just write your own and have full control over the style and the lifecycle.
Totally agree. As long as it's not just a "higher" offer, going with the company you really think is better for you (both financially and technically), is always the right move. Even if you accepted the offer, it's OK to rescind, like Steve said above, just be honest and direct, yes it's awkward, but it's definitely more awkward for you than the company that made you the offer. If Company A was a really small company, be extra communicative as recruiting is hard for small teams :)

Scaling Micro-Services in Go
We, at Degreed (https://degreed.com), are using .NET, MVC 5, EF 6 on Azure. Front-end is Angular. We are part of BizSpark Plus which ends next month. Currently looking into whether or not VS 2013 Express for Web is sufficient.

Reason for using it was tooling, hosting and familiarity. I enjoy being able to being able to fully debug the code and step through things. Makes things enjoyable, to say the least. I love C# and use it for everything I do.

Only concern is the steep SQL pricing for the new tiers and the occasional blips as mentioned by siganakis. However, support is fast and helpful.

It's completely legal to decline offer X, and instead take offer Y.

If you're certain it's the best opportunity, do not hesitate to take offer Y.

However, also, be honest with company X about what happened. You don't owe them a huge explanation, these things happen all the time. Simply let them know that while waiting for the contract, you received a better offer and have decided to take it. Company X may even upgrade their offer to you as a counter.

Daily weighting is made up without any real insight into operations. Furthermore, whatsthefare says that it bases its own approximations on relatively sparse data from user's use of their systems, not realtime monitoring on a service that's probably prone to constant change.

All great questions, and all things I think can be solved.

FRESHDESK – “A-FREAKING-RIP-OFF ;-)” – Mikkel Svane, Zendesk CEO
The "smoking gun" quote:

"Yet an experimental test of droplet entanglement remains a distant goal."

And it will remain a distant goal forever. Per Bell's theorem, entanglement is inherently non-local. Bohmian pilot waves are also non-local, so they can reproduce all the results of QM, but no purely classical model can.
Many Worlds is a far, far more popular interpretation than Bohm[1].

The strong objection to Many Worlds is not that macroscopic objects cannot be in superposition. There are many objections [2], but the principal one is the difficulty of deriving the Born Rule.

This is a deep objection. The Born rule predicts of the result of quantum measurements in QM, and it's not clear how to get those results out of MWI. The Born Rule in MWI is inserted ad-hoc afterwards, or arises via some weird "world-counting" formalism that doesn't naturally connect to probabilities. So MWI has more the flavor of a visualization, not a theory that aims at making predictions.

When you say "collapse is wrong," it depends on what is being collapsed. Sure, inserting some special "wavefunction collapse dynamics" separate from ordinary evolution is a pretty rough approach. But when the wavefunction is understood as encoding probabilities, then it's not something physical, and its collapse is no more mysterious than the probability of the Giants winning the World Series "collapsing" to 100% once the final game was played.

If you're looking for light-weight Sass frameworks, you might like Thoughtbot's mixins and libraries.

- Bourbon (bourbon.io, like Compass but lighter)

- Neat (neat.bourbon.io, grid framework via mixins)

- Bitters (bitters.bourbon.io, scaffold styles and file structure)

- Refills (refills.bourbon.io, example components built with all of the above)

I've used these in multiple projects and I wouldn't switch back to Bootstrap or Foundation, which end up adding tons of unused styles to projects, and IMO, get in the way. The advantage to Bourbon, etc... is that you have much more control over the structure of your Sass and what specifically you need. If you're looking for out of the box UI, Refills gives you something to work with, but honestly, I think it's tailored towards developers that are building custom interfaces.
Its a good addition
This is a good addition
This is just one step in a continuing development. Engines become smaller but charged give the same amount of power or more than existing engines. The engines are eventually only used for spinning a generator (with the rest of the drive train being electric) which means the engines can be explicitly designed to run short spurts at very high power output, very high efficiency but also higher wear (but that's ok because it doesn't run for 10 hours straight).

The engines probably end up being tiny but charged diesel engines (diesel cycle is more efficient and diesel engines can easily run on various kinds of renewable or recycled oils) that are designed to charge the car batteries with the best possible efficiency in the shortest possible time. Most driving will be powered by the battery only within 100-200 mile radius, and people are probably fine with limiting the top speed of the vehicle on longer distances so that the tiny engine can remain tiny and weigh less.
How to Build Advanced Twitter Bot
Ok, that's fine, but I have existing gmail filters that send 'promotions', automated emails, etc... far & away from the inbox. What's the plan with those?

Sometimes I like to peruse the ones that I've not yet acknowledge receipt of and either j/k + x to select the ones I want to dismiss outright, which I can still do in Inbox, and then shift-i/click mark as read to mark em my equivalent of 'done'...

The actions presented in Inbox will leave the 'unread' business to ever grow and clutter any IMAP connected application and searches like is:unread.

Edit: Maybe the more troubling aspect of the removal of the 'unread' handling is that these emails will certainly go unseen/missed which is bad.

YC does not discriminate in this way. We fund lots of people working on B2B and enterprise ideas, who are married with kids, who are in their 30's, 40's and yes older too. This claim is just plain false.

> Do readers really prefer EPUB/MOBI over PDF?

A bunch do. When I read eBooks, I prefer them because I want the text to be reflowed on my device. PDFs only look good if your screen is about the dimensions that the PDF was authored for.

> Personally, I've always preferred PDFs.

Hmm, I didn't make that format available but I certainly could once I figure out how. I'm not familiar with people buying PDFs. Is what you expect basically just a digital version of the print layout?
Actually, performance is quite important for scalability. A lot of sites written in Ruby / PHP have big scalability pains if they get popular. Twitter had to be re-written from Ruby to Java. Facebook had to completely rewrite PHP's compiler to make it close to a compiled / statically typed language.

Joel Spolsky mentioned how StackOverflow only needed 3 servers to run it for a really long time, because it was coded in a compiled language. [1]

If you're talking about the natural costs of holding money, those are miniscule. If you're talking about a tax I don't see how it avoids debasing the currency, or is meaningfully different from inflation. It just makes things more complicated because people can attempt to avoid paying.
Hmmm, I'm not sure what battery we're talking about, but that sounds fairly impressive, if it's realistic. I agree with the other posters though, a simple plug for 12v power would probably not break the design / budget.

Epub is essential when reading on a device with a sub-8" screen, if you don't want to scroll horizontally while reading, or having to decipher tiny type.

They both mimic the standard Array/Map/Set methods but differ in how they handle mutating methods like push and set. In Facebook's version, these functions return a new immutable instance with the values changed appropriately, while this one throws an error. It also provides a few new methods to combine/transform existing immutables.

I like the look of this one better. IMHO Facebook's approach will lead to confusion and subtle errors when their immutables are mixed up with normal objects and arrays.
Personally I think this is think that's an unwise decision that will lead to confusion and subtle errors.

3. I have not taken part in a hackathon before, I will be on the lookout for any in my area.

I did code the entire app in Swift. I dabbled in iOS programming but was never able to make anything substantial because I just didn't like programming in Objective-C. This app is the first app I have ever made on my own (I used to help a friend by designing apps together with him). The main source of learning material I used was Apple's PDF Swift book.[1] I also looked for tutorials here and there and would modify them to make them do what I wanted. It really ended up being a lot of trial and error as I am still trying to build upon my programming skills. I am a pharmacy student in my second year of pharmacy school with no formal training, just self-taught Ruby (Sinatra mainly) and web design.

If you have any specific questions, I would love to answer them.

That said, I agree with your points that links to sources of evidence may be too challenging or time consuming for some and that's basically why the project was initiated.

Thank you for publicizing an early draft. It is really good and very helpful.

I think your explanations are great, but you seem to imply that the gradient 3 for f(x,y) = xy with x = -2 and y=3 derived w.r.t x is somehow the "best" gradient (you call it the correct or actual gradient) but I don't understand why this is better than any other positive number.

Wouldn't we optimize faster of we tug with a force of 6 instead of 3?

x = -2, y= 3,
dx = 3, dy = -2
step = 0.0001

f(x,y) = -6

f(x+dx*step, y*dy*step) = -5.998...

// Now if we double the gradient
f(x+2*dx*step, y*2*dy*step) = -5.997...
