I'm going to go to New York city from May 13th through 20th, and I wanted to know what I should do 🏙️ I like to visit museums, gardens, and landmarks. I currently have a short list with the Met, Moma, Guggenheim, Statue of Liberty, Bronx Zoo, etc.

This honestly pisses me off. I’m working on a side project with someone, and they converted all the JS files into TS files. So many merge conflicts are occurring…

Apparently you can rewrite: if(x === true || y === true || z === true) as: if([x, y, z].includes(true)) in JavaScript 😳

Due to some personal things in my life, I’ve been feeling very depressed. My personal and professional life have hit an all-time low. I would like to get mental health but I don’t have insurance in the USA. Is there any advice you can give on getting free/cheap mental help?

I need advice. Finished an interview at a company where I would be the only Software Engineer. My tasks would be to create a website, similar to Apple, and maintain it. I only have 6 months of professional experience, and I don't know the salary. Should I take the job?

@CreeCoder In my experience, I've found I get more positive replies if I: 1) Apply to a job within 48 hours of it being posted. 2) Apply on the company website. 3) Tailor the resume and cover letter with keywords. 4) Send a personal message to a recruiter/hiring manager.
