Yes, and it’s pretty great.

I miss that view! It was so useful, especially debugging z-index issues.

This is great. My daughter does this for me too:

My guess would be that someone maintaining the main index isn’t maintaining the sorted indices. With Algolia, you have a duplicated index for each type of sort and direction that you want to support.

Found out about this last night. I wish I knew about Pirevolume shutting down. So much local music and dumb things my friends and I wrote gone.

I love using Mermaid https://mermaidjs.github.io/

There’s an online editor too which is basically what I use most of the time.

I use Mermaid as an extension in MediaWiki and can generate graphs from the structured data in my wiki, pretty slick.

There are some tweaks that would be really nice to make it more useful (designating two nodes to be on the same level, more control over node positioning, etc.), but I'm enjoying it so far.

Mermaid lets you create diagrams using code. Really nice.

MM.LaFleur | Mid-level Software Engineer (100-130k) | New York | FULL-TIME | https://mmlafleur.com

I’m looking for someone to join my team building our API.

MM.LaFleur is a fast-growing professional womenswear company based in New York City. We aim to be the go-to wardrobe solution for women of purpose by taking the work out of dressing for work.

You will:

    - Help build an API to power our internal and external tools
    - Work closely with a team of engineers and product managers
    - Write and review code using coding standards and best practices
    - Write unit/integration tests, and document your work

What you need: experience with PHP, GIT, an understanding of relational databases, and strong English comprehension/communication skills.

Nice to have: Magento and/or e-commerce experience.

The interview process contains a phone screen, technical interviews, and in house interviews with different team members.

No recruiters. Send an email to luke.evers@mmlafleur.com with a resume if you’re interested.

What’s your version of what HN is to other people? In the way that people learn about new things, connect with others in various niches, etc—where do you go for that?

I don't have such a thing. Eventually they all turn into reddit, populated by kids and amateurs and unemployed wannabe programmers. So they are all for skimming only.

The last great place to go was Stack Overflow but it, too, is now overrun by redditors and other amateurs and I no longer help out there even though I'm in the upper three percent. There is one forum I still go to but the past year has shown an erosion there as it has become popular among the non-elite tech group.

There are some mailing lists which are exclusive but sparsely visited unfortunately. Same with IRC. So its better to be good at Googling and gleaning fact over fiction, not finding a good forum.

The same is true of "news". There is no good source for news anymore and you have to do your own vetting, something news editors used to do but no more.

Not exactly. In a lot of fast paced environments it’s rare to get a chance to rewrite something that functions properly just because it could be labeled as technical debt. It’s not about culture, it’s about moving on to the next thing. I code review hard to make sure we have the smallest amount of technical debt possible because it’s usually there to stay for a considerable amount of time.

That would fall under "culture".

I thought it was a coin based on the game "The Sims" or "Sim City". I was pretty disappointed when I saw it was not.
