If calling half of your opponents supporters bigots while simultaneously giving the bigots the marketing opportunity of a lifetime isn't a massive campaign problem, then what is? I still see and block people who have "deplorable&q

Yup - I just recently learned this lesson the hard way with Turso's LibSQL server. While some of the features (like s3 replication) are cool and interesting, the amount of time working around multiple writers and foreign key shenanigan

YMMV, but I would argue that claiming Trump is waging an unprecedented attack against the first amendment, accompanied by a picture of the first amendment ripped in half, is calling for (rightful) outrage and is inherently political. The po

What Brian and a lot of the commenters here need to realize is that online outrage does not help progressive causes in the slightest. While the examples in his article are valid & concerning, especially as talks of a third Trump term ha

Calling young people stupid and idiots is a very poor way to get this point across, even if it's meant in an endearing way (which I'm suspicious of). This cynicism is also entirely unwarranted, especially when your own personal ex

This is the case for non-neurodivergent people too. Large companies these days are, largely, an exercise in corporate politics rather than solving technical problems.

This hits very close to home and I'm very glad to see I am (and you are) not alone. Thank you for writing it. I'm currently in the process of leaving my "big tech" job. While I won't name my company, it is somewhat

IME a lot of the pain comes from picking the wrong tool for the layer. By that I mean saying everything has to be a JS framework or everything has to be server-delivered-HTML. For very dynamic & interactive things maybe it makes sense t

It was very disappointing to see Svelte 5 go the way of React. Yes, yes, I understand that it theoretically simplifies things and yadda yadda yadda, but after trying to actually use it, it felt like I was just using React with a much smalle

Been really enjoying the author's YouTube content lately, even though I'm not too experienced in reverse engineering.

Yep! You're right, it does have the ability to bundle -- that's my bad. Rollup is just much better at bundling for production, just like TinyGo. Similarly, esbuild is better for development, just like Go. A good rundown (rolldow

In practice, I've very rarely seen a downside: I compare it to something like Vite, where it uses esbuild in development and rollup in production, because the two libraries are for different things (esbuild doesn't bundle, rollup

My struggle with Make and bash is that they're not very expressive - maybe that's something we want in our CIs, but I've always preferred writing an actual program in that program's native language for CI/CD, even i

My company is currently adopting this and I don't see the appeal yet - likely from a lack of knowing much about it. I added it to a side project just to get familiar and it added quite a few sdk files and folders to my project, and lot
