In order to get lucky with something you have to give luck a chance. There is no way to win a lottery when you don't buy a ticket in the first place. The more tickets you buy (the more involved you are), the greater the chance you'll win (luck). What's more to it?

Btw, what is luck? Some things that make you happy in the short term can easily destroy everything that's dear to you in the long term.

Hmm, this is confusing. Is bad reputation in your system the only penalty for an employer not paying? And that's it?

Definitely cool technology, only not for me. I'll never place a camera in my home that is connected to some cloud service or company database. That data is simply too valuable for me to send out to a "trusted" party.

Clickbait? Where is that music?

Didn't hear one single interesting sound out of that box that can be used to create music. Most producers and musicians already went back to analog because it sounds so much better.

I would be really impressed if some machine learning algorithm can only generate a kick that sounds better than the original analog TR808/909.

> The bubble is too big for Google

There is the "bubble" word again. So how about our economy, isn't that a bubble too?

What is a bubble? I still see too many places in the world where the sales price for a house is easily 10x the price it actually cost to build it. Banks? Quantitative easing? Startup's? Or at what point will Google look like a bubble itself?

Governments and Banks have learned that the crypto-currency revolution can replace a significant part of our current economy. Whether that's good or bad news, calling it a bubble is foolish and cheap IMHO.

> Avoid try/catch

haha, async await needs that by design!

I'm glad Harry Potter was not written by these rules.

Off course, but the steady stream of money to the rich is unstoppable. The problem is that we are conditioned to accept the extreme wealthy and even look up to them. Most people think everything is OK as long as they have a decent income. So most people only find out first about the horror of this system once they lose their job and hit the streets. But then it's all too late when the reality sinks in. With the sticker POOR on your head your kinda lost till you die in this world.

We live in a world of modern slavery where one needs the skill and luck to find a good job to avoid the streets. A better distribution of wealth would be great of course. Imagine all those billionaires rendering at least half of their fortunes back to the poor. But that is not realistic and will never happen. Things will get worse to the point they lock us up in some sort of "District 9" (Elysium).

Well, at least less meaningless than the widely used word "Economy" representing our financial system of waste, where consumers have to keep buying stuff to keep the system intact.

Always funny to see people in finance call crypto currencies "virtual currencies". Do they mean fiat currency is not virtual? Does it represent a real value or so? IMHO it's even worse, they keep increasing the maximum supply, devalue the worthless paper even more. But at least they have a chic word for it: Quantitive easing.

There is so much more to this. Inequality, poverty..

Poverty hinders proper brain development and wiring. Life expectance in London is 25 years less for the poor! Economy rules! It is not popular info, but for those interested: https://youtu.be/GvkchZADaaA

It would be great if the many password managers out there like keepass for example, use this data to filter out any password that exists in the list. I know it would be very rare, but still, why not filter them out?

I have a HP zbook laptop that cost me about 3500 euro's. Recently I changed some trivial settings in the BIOS. After I saved and reboot the laptop hung at the bios stage. There was no way to get back into the bios and the keyboard was blinking a code that I had to contact HP.

They had to replace the entire motherboard due to a corrupted BIOS. So it was caused by a bug? The repair cost were about 800 euro's..

> I’m very bad with the front-end and don’t like it. The rest of our team has the same feelings.

Hmmm..

> In early 2017 we almost solved the problem with the front-end, as we hired an expert who made the whole site over using BEM block technology.

BEM! hahaha

BEM is not mandatory for a good front-end, at all.. It sounds like you actually need a good, experienced and passionate front-end developer. But if you don't want one, I agree that Vue.js is a relatively safe choice. I only do Vue.js for smaller projects, a little bigger and I switch to React or Angular. But I always try to mind (before switching and advocating a library) that there is a fair chance that within 5 years it is deprecated already, just like jQuery.

I am a full stack senior with quite some years of experience. I use the internet when I have the tiniest bit of doubt about any of these questions. To get my app right and have fewer bugs I tend to use my own memory less because it's simply not reliable. Another reason to look up things is that standards change over time.

Why would you need a handbook like this in the first place? Clearly because your memory is not reliable. So the interviewer acknowledges his own poor memory, using this handbook to find a candidate with better memory? Oh my..

I know hiring is hard, but this doesn't cut it at all IMAO.

Why donations via Paypal? Paypal sucks and steals! They make up their own (totally unreasonable) rates for exchanging Euro's to USD..

Better show an Ethereum address or so, it's just a few minutes work and might render a much larger donation due to the expected increase in price over time.

Amazing work. Thanks for sharing.
