GoodbyeEarl··on Show HN: Message someone on WhatsApp without having them on your contacts list
oh boy, this is really useful! I wonder why whatsapp folks haven't made this native, something like add a number to the app itself instead of relying solely on your phone contacts

GoodbyeEarl··on Rod Vagg's statement on the request to be removed from the Node.js CTC
You, I like you. Best view on the matter so far. Thanks.
GoodbyeEarl··on Node.js is forked to Ayo.js (pronounced like “IO”)
I've faced this exact scenario a few months back when I asked some questions on Preact's Gitter. Pathetic. English is not even my first language, I swear I didn't know I'd be offending someone by saying "hey guys" :/

GoodbyeEarl··on Ask HN: Is it a waste of time to teach yourself data science without a degree?
Do you take the classes at night and work full time during the day? That sounds tough considering you also have kids. Congratulations!
GoodbyeEarl··on Ask HN: Is it a waste of time to teach yourself data science without a degree?
May I ask which degree was that?
GoodbyeEarl··on I tried Haskell for 5 years
React, HapiJS, RethinkDB, Node and Haskell. That might be the coolest stack ever. Do you have any FOSS project on Github?
GoodbyeEarl··on The end of Academia.edu: How business takes over
That's exactly the reason why I left Quora. It used to be such an amazing place to read interesting stuff now it's only about meaningful questions.
GoodbyeEarl··on Rust 1.17
Man, I really didn't expect all those nice and thoughtful responses. Thank you so much for everyone who replied it. It was really kind of you. Now I have a much better idea on what Rust was designed for and its strenghts. I've learnt so much here. Also thanks for the articles and videos you shared, I'll definitely take a look at them all.

I'm glad I didn't let the fear of been bashed to keep me away of asking. I'm not sure if I'll ever need to use Rust but it surely has the coolest people around it. :) Thank you guys!

GoodbyeEarl··on Rust 1.17
Hey, folks! I have never used Rust but all the buzz around it made me curious, so I may ask you to forgive my ignorance on the matter. I have a few honest questions about it and I'm pretty sure these questions were answered before, so feel free to point me to this resources, I'd appreciate very much.

First of all what's the point of Rust? OK, it's a systems language, but what does that even mean? You can write a system in any language right? Python is a scripting language and lots of people use it everyday to write systems. What problems is it trying to solve? Also how does it compare to Go? (I haven't used either one or another). It seems to me that both Go and Rust are mainly used by C/C++ folks that want a new shiny language that somehow resemble the syntax or structure or funcionality of the former and at the same time add some modern features (I might be totally wrong by presuming this).

From the perspective of other languages I know a little bit such as Ruby, Python or JS its syntax seems really bloated to me with all those specials symbols. Do you feel more productive writing software in it than in let's say JS? Please keep in mind that I really don't know Rust (nor I've never tried a statically-typed language) and I don't mean to offend anyone.

Thank you guys!

GoodbyeEarl··on Ask HN: Best business advice for software developers

GoodbyeEarl··on Interview with Andy Hunt, Coauthor of the Pragmatic Programmer
Hey, I'm not an UX specialist but

  .entry p {
    margin-bottom: 1em;
    font-weight: 400;
    line-height: 25px;
    font-size: 16px;
  }
did the trick for me. I found it more pleasing to the eyes. BTW, nice interview! ;)
