I've spent most of my time as a back end developer, occasionally dabbling in some front end code in various MVC frameworks. I always hated it and found it to be tedious.
I recently took up react+redux for a new project and for the first time feel like I'm developing for the UI in a way that makes sense and feel like I'm able to accomplish things way faster than with other clunky frameworks.

Yep, turn on your "I'm looking" flag, or even go and spruce up your profile and you're outed.

This entire notion of a professional social network I believe is flawed in that it is built upon the notion that it would be better to hire someone who has a smaller degree of separation from you, which makes no sense. I do a fair amount of interviewing of programmers, and not a single person I work with could give a damn about anyone's linkedin profile; it's meaningless. I just find the whole idea to be very shallow, vein, and obtrusive.

It took half a dozen or so emails to every possible email address I could find on linkedin's site, but I managed to finally have my personal email address added to some global do-not-contact list. I have since stopped receiving any invitations from friends to join. It's really disgusting that they have such functionality, but do not allow people to be added to such a list on their own.

"Yes, most people intend this in a gender-neutral way; no, it is not actually gender-neutral."
Wrong.

I suspect many average end-users will click 'whatever' in order to try to make things work again.

Awe, I was in the middle of writing a scraper for this and it seems they have now "fixed" it.

beering is clearly speaking within the context of the Swartz's legal troubles. Within that context, beering's comments are valid.
