Hello Chris,

I constantly worry about violent, racist, and sexually-explicit content. I’m currently doing manual content moderation but I’m exploring other ways to prevent them. Youtube has implemented AI tech to flag inappropriate content, so that’s something I’m considering.

In the mean time, my focus is to make this anonymous discussion board a healthy place for honest discussions.

Side projects. Show me what you've done, and run me through how you developed it. Since you developed it, you should know the inner workings of it.

While this is a true statement, I don't really like this mentality in our field. Just the thought that hiring managers want you to have 15 side projects and a full Github profile, and also work 16 hour days at the office. If you are a programmer/developer and you don't eat your meals at a computer desk while staring at code, you are seen as less.

I love developing it was the best career move i've ever made, but you know what? I also love friends, hiking, jogging, going to the gym, video games, playing guitar, and watching movies.

I don't live to work. I work to pay for the stuff I like to do outside of work.

Stop using Facebook. Your future self will thank you for it.

Every programming language has its pros and cons. And many of them overlap.

A product’s success has nothing to do with which language or framework you choose. They are there to help you develop something that works as per your needs.

You mentioned your product deals with chat messaging. So I would suggest using something like NodeJS + SQL for the backend. NodeJS for its ability to handle high volume of events. SQL for managing the chat history of each person in a relational way.

My two cents worth :)

This man built a hydro generator with a group of friends, and charges just $5 per month for electricity. Hero.

There's a bubble. A bubble of desperation. You can't put your money in the bank due to the low interest rates. Traditional businesses are not doing well. Investors are desperate to put their money to work. So we see bubbles in tech, bubbles in cryptocurrencies, bubbles in startups.

Best to watch what the legendary investors are doing. People like Warren Buffett, Prem Watsa, and the likes.

Netflix generates $8B revenue with 3k staff, when Time Warner generates $28B with 25k staff. Both net income are equivalent ($3B). Both valuations are equivalent (100B). Dividends are equivalent. I don't see any bubble.

Given the right amount of capital and assets, Netflix sounds like way more capable of growing than Time Warner in the next 5 years. Time will tell.

I know right, we need this in all of the airports right now. Why are we still spending 1 hour in the queue just to check in?

I understand the initial cost involved in setting up something like his, but the time and cost savings you get far will more than cover the initial cost.

Use Access-control-allow-origin and set it to only allow calls from a specific address.

Can someone fake the origin?

This is controlled on browser level and most (all?) browsers implement this. Origin can be faked by just using anything that can make a http request, like curl. It exists to protect users not the server.

from browser ? No. from non-browser clients like curl ? Yes. And your server will never be able to tell if it is fake or not

I think the source needs to be strong. I'm currently using a wifi extender and noticed the speed isn't good when I move the extender to a room further from the source.

That is because range extenders just rebroadcast so you cut your bandwidth in half with every hop
