Code reviews 101 Code reviews are part of the daily workflow of most engineers, and the team I work on is no exception. We have a two-person approval process for each pull request before merging any code, so the code review process is one we take seriously. Apart from that, it’s one of my favorite parts of software development: I get to expedite my learning by using someone else’s code as cliff notes!

Of these, South Korea’s appears the most detailed by providing a classification scheme as a framework for regulation. This is the most sophisticated understanding of the blockchain sector I have seen to date from a government: “The government has subdivided its industry classificatio

by Sally Poblete, CEO of Wellthie. It’s no secret that small business owners care about their employees — they are like family. Making sure employees stay healthy is a priority for most business owners.

I grew up here in the Bay Area during the dot com boom. I went to college during the bust. And when I graduated, it was booming again. From that perspective, things have been mostly rosy in the Silicon Valley for startups! (except for 2008-2009, which is another story) But, I think we’re in trouble, Silicon Valley. I think we are *on our way down* as an early stage startup hub unless we start to fix some of our problems around here.

And between breaches at Equifax, Yahoo, and other large outlets, almost everyone is a victim.

But how can you get your business idea off the ground initially?

When you go for a new loan in order to pay off multiple debts or credit card balances, the new loan is called a debt consolidation loan. Usually, debt consolidation loan is considered ideal, especially if you have balances on multiple credit cards since you will be paying off the high-interest credit card bills. Taking care of debts having high-interest charges is a good step towards consolidating your financial position and improving your credit score.
