Slowly but surely dynamic programming proponents discover the value of statically verifiable correctness. Who'd have thought?

Martine just straight up sucks. Vendoring your components gives you the best of both worlds. You get a full component library but retain the ability to modify them as you want. Your AI agent claim doesn't make any sense either. When up

But Kubernetes isn't postgres or ruby or containers. It's the orchestration service. Your comparison doesn't make sense.

This example is not only wrong for what you intend to demonstrate but even if it wasn't, it's not problematic. In typescript the proper way to do this is using branded types and exporting only the safe constructor, making anyone w

The examples for the M5 exploit and the other stuff immediately make me think that the author is an idiot. I'm not calling you an idiot - I'm saying that if I were to read a technical article and the first thing I'm presented

Nobody in Denmark actually thinks of Lars Andersen as any sort of serious privacy activist. He is a drug-addled moron who just happens to dabble in those things. He's an idiot and contributes nothing of value to society.

Like the sibling said: CORS is the relaxation of default security features. It's even in the name: Cross-Origin Resource Sharing.

It's not about "knowing" anything. It's about admitting that humans are fallible meat computers that can't hold invariants in their head across thousands or millions of lines of code and possibly an exponential numb

The problem with your counter-argument is that it hinges on a false premise: That you need or even want a function like `assoc` which is polymorphic over everything . It's an extremely overloaded function which does a lot of things at

"Until you get better" is such an arrogant take. It's not just about skill. It's about maintainability, ease of refactor, and modeling invariants in your code in a way that they can be checked by the machine (the compile

No.. that's not the only reason. Global state is bad because it makes it hard to reason about your system. The global state can affect any part of it, or, focusing on the inverse which is probably better applied to global styles, any p

This doesn't make any sense to me. The problem with this dev's approach is not AI, it's their use of it. They didn't ensure that the architecture made sense. They didn't look at the code and get a "feel" f

It's like horoscopes for the entirely-too-AI-pilled. Founded in nothing but vibes. "Don't write prompts like that, do it like this! I swear it's better. Claude says so!"

It's staggering to me how many times I've heard this argument that LLMs are just the next level of abstraction. Some people are even comparing them to compilers.
