I am supposed to hire a Senior Dev for my startup but I'm kinda confused as to what should I do to make sure someone is good enough. People often write 5-8+ years of experience yet turnout to be fakers and I really can't afford that right now. Any tips on hiring somone senior or more experienced than I am..

We want to hire new dev, so, these MBA guys have a brilliant plan. Give him access to our complete repository and let him go through the full fucking code and *access it*. I don't even know what to explain here..

Ooh man, I'm so fucking pissed with these shit MBA fucks who think they know everything about everything about everything but can't even tell the difference between pastry and shit until they dig their mouth into it.

Dick heads want to micromanage me to a point where I don't even have to think.

*Make the button green.*
But that does not follow any design principles.
*We have business research which says so*
What.

Such bullshit, I don't even wanna argue anymore. But man, it's so tough to make something which goes against every principle of what you have ever learnt. I mean, I'm coding it, and my brain refuses to help because the idea is soo bad. God I'm soo frustrated.

People who name an array of *products* as *items* should reconsidered their life choices..

Client wants a cricket based website made so I gotta search Google for images and shit.

Getting every cricket related update+merchandise ads on all possible apps/platforms..

I don't even watch cricket

A client is offering me just equity for their startup. I do like the idea and the research they've put behind it, but I'm also looking at a timeline of 3 months for just the MVP and almost 6 months to an year to get paid. Should I go for it?

I'm in a decent financial situation rn, so money isn't that big a thing and I'm pretty young, so that's on my side. But still, 6 months+ of my time without any renumeration is nothing to scoff at

NEVER WRITE THE UI BEFORE WRITING THE BUSINESS LOGIC

Hey, I need a little help here and I don't have a lot of time to figure this out.

I have this piece of code which I wrote in flask when I had just ventured into programming. The idea is that we have two excel sheets a search file and a demand file, all we need to do is search for the names from the demand file in the search file and then produce the result in an appropriate format. The problem, the names don't match up, quite often. Sometimes the spellings are wrong sometimes the way they named one things in the files is different, so, for that I have a keyword based search and I make another sheet called guesses where this data is then written.

I made it for my mom who's a doctor and does procurement (buying stuff) for the hospital. It was just a small project to help her and her team with a very inconvenient and boring task and I never could host it cause I really didn't know how to (in py) and I had used socketIO in flask along with threading and stuff. But now, shit has hit the fan as the software is suddenly in demand for obvious reasons.

Just help me host this thing somewhere. Thanks, link in comments.

I ended my Medium Subscription today.

Reason:
Non Technical =>
Repetitive posts, often by the same author saying pretty much the same thing.
Multiple copied of the same post being suggested all the time.
Click baity titles which have no real content.
Amazing amount of self promotion rather than any actual value in the article.

Technical=>
Very slow loading of media on the pages, videos don't even load.
Provided solutions in tech based articles often unconventional, super harmful in long term if you have them in your code.

I do agree that they definitely have some good content, but I don't feel it's enough to make me stay given all these issues.
I'd rather just use it on my pc without logging in.

👌👌👌

When corporates try to buy you with free shit but you know your roots..

I'm so pissed off with people who complain about YouTube ads. See the thing is, either you pay up for YouTube premium which legit costs like $4, or stfu with your "iM sEeinG nUde gIrls in Mah Ads" or "tHey tryYinG to gEt me mArRied". It's not their mistake that that is the only thing that draws people's attention in your general vicinity/age group..

One is a company supplying content worth more than your entire life and then there is you, not even important enough for the algorithm to give you targeted adverts. Deal with the reality, beggars can't be choosers..

I honestly owe everything to my buddy in our startup. He has taught me how to think in Javascript and that is why I am where I am. We fight almost everyday on almost everything, but there is Noone I respect more than I respect him..

PayPal is holding payments that we made to our employees for 7-10 days. I'm feeling really bad.

Sorry, I can't work today.

Imagine if all countries made it mandatory for their citizens to have the same haircut as their leader..

I have a good one.. But I'll write it later..

Use
git branch --merged
to get, you guessed it, all the branches you have merged.

Use
git branch -d <branch-name>
To delete a branch if it has been merged (use -D for forced)

And Use,
git branch --merged | egrep - v "(^\*|master|dev)" | xargs git branch - d

To delete all the branches that you have merged (but not anything with master/dev in their names)

Sorry for the formatting, I don't know how coder formatting works on DR..

That whatever I do will get automated soon..

Gonna shoot pulseaudio in the balls someday soon.

Ooh, so you are a PRO JS programmer with *900000* years of bloody programming experience and don't know about the Event Loop..
