A "Message Echo" textbox that makes it look like you can get a response to a prompt without logging in, only to redirect to the sign-up page. Such a classic dark pattern - and such a sure way to get me to leave your site immediately.
I've literally taken one step on your website - the one your site design invited me to take - and immediately got tripped up. I'm not coming back.
Even worse, I've seen the JetBrains AI auto-complete insert hard-to-spot bugs, like two nested for loops with i and j for loop index variables, where the inner loop was fairly complex and incorrectly used i instead of j in one place.
GMail disagrees with you, because GMail users disagree with you. They are clicking "report spam" on your emails. Whether or not you think what you're sending is spam, the recipients think it is, and that's what matters. (Based on the other comments in this thread it's not hard to see why they might think so.)
Perhaps a stupid question, but why do notifications need to be stored in a database in persistent storage at all?
OK, maybe they can be stored until they're dismissed in case the battery suddenly dies, so they can be displayed again on next boot and are not lost, but it sounds like they are being stored long after they are dismissed.
There have been so many cases of Apple, Google, etc. doing this that it's hard to have any sympathy for them at this point. If it was some grandma who didn't know better that would be another story, but the author was surely aware
- that Apple *can* always *just* disable their account
- that Apple regularly *does* do that
- that Apple does not care about them at all
and they chose to bet their entire digital life on Apple's benevolence anyway. They lost that bet.
We need more stories like this hitting the mainstream news until even a non-technical person's reaction to this is "well, what did you expect?"
The number of monsters on the screen doesn't seem to affect playing speed for me, but when the wall of fire appears it slows down the game very noticeably. (Using Firefox on desktop.)
Just tried it and, apart from the UI being highly confusing (you just get a blank workspace basically, and it's unclear how to see other DBs and objects in them) it seems to have no support for PG schemas. When I did manage to connect to my DB it showed me the tables in the "public" schema only.

I've never seen this kind of thing in a legitimate job at. It smells like a scam to get bank details, especially combined with the very generic description here and lack of any company details.
I like the brevity of it, but I don't like the assumption that every good candidate will have everything that they want to share with a prospective employer on their LinkedIn page. Something like "Link to resume, LinkedIn, GitHub, etc. (whatever you want to show us)" would be more inclusive.
That is the second-shortest job application form I've ever seen. (The shortest one asked for a name, email and LinkedIn without a free-text field. I think "who are you" is more important than "name".)
I see, thanks. I guess that answers one question, but raises another: why have his packages depend on more of his packages? If his goal was to be included in as many node_modules directories as possible, and handlebars-helpers was already included what's the point of pulling in is-odd/is-even, too?
When I first heard of the is-odd and is-even NPM packages I was sure they were a joke, yet there we are: 200K weekly downloads! Publishing the packages may have been the effort of one spammer, but many developers obviously chose to use them - that's the part that boggles my mind.
Just want to say I really like the values on your careers page. Compassion and humility, but raising the bar at the same time. (Of course, it could all be complete corporate BS, for all I know, but I'd really like to believe it's not!) It's such a shame you switched from "remote (worldwide)" to "remote (North America)"!
