While true, domestic use is super problematic and balloons any bill. E.g. our house in germany is from 1968. We where lucky and the builder did not use any asbestos so I could do most renovations myself. If you have asbestos, you need speci

Thanks, that's fascinating. Ar least in my recollection, the expedit I knew was comparable to a Billy in wood density, but I might be mistaken - it's nearly twenty years. Funnily, the most sturdy piece of furniture we own is from

At least in Germany quality has gone downhill. I still own some Billies made in 1995 or so by Ikea. Literally massive wood and damn good book shelves. The ones bought by me in 2008 or so very noticeably less well build but still ok. The one

Ravendb has an interesting use case. It's basically as easy to use as mongo DB, similarly scalable and at the same time is acid, has a nicer query language and is more secure. Iike it actually more than SQL, especially for typical LOb

I just wish that Linux would be less obnoxious about file separators and especially line endings. Windows mostly just eats linux-style line endings and file paths without a problem, and MOST programs do not have a problem either. Feed a win

It's very useful for multiple scenarios: 1. Learning new syntax. E.g. the new switch expressions are pretty neat and better than the old switch statements. Changing and learning how to write them is super easy thanks to this feature. 2

Content negotiation is useful when there are multiple feasible return formats. But when is that the case? For data, Json is the absolute king. For content, html is king. There is very little to negotiate. The only case where I needed that f

Wix is part of the problem. It's basically making money for the developers who offer consultancy for it. Therefore the documentation is poor , like the absolute worst I've ever seen. Opening issues for doc issues never results in

One Major Point for monorepos is the ability to eschew packages. In most languages creating, publishing and consuming a package is a lot of work, while in a monorepo you just add a reference to the code and are ready to go (except in react

It's so so. Pythons core value is it's huge stack of lib's. And most important fall down with IP due to them using c and so on. When we needed python c# interop it was better to use python.net and integrate that way. Annoying

German here. You can absolutely remediate heavily polluted rivers. Best example might be the Rhine. It was so toxic in the 70s that everything in it died. Now it's a nice river with lots of living things and you can absolutely swim in

At least for python and dotnet, I think github actions are superior. Gitlab did not support poetry for ages there where bugs with python galore and for dotnet they do not speak the same language - e.g. issues in dotnet are reported as saeif

I really wish to like F# but the line noise kills me every time. I would kill for a "visual basic" f# where the absurd terseness is replaced with a little less noise. E.g. instead of seq use sequence, instead of abstract one lette

I really like FP, but I think most FP language designers are a little too enamored with cryptic symbols and abbreviations. Tried f# but the abbreviations turned me off, e.g. seq instead of sequence.

And? Even if so, you should be unable to gain anything from that. As a developer, I am annoyed that we remove so much valuable info from exceptions. It would be better to include more info and then make it easier to dump this information in
