YouTube is interesting but it is in my experience is tamable with a lot of 'buts'. What I find ironic is that the algorithm is so sensitive to keeping you engaged, you can have the opposite effect and, instead of being barraged w

I really enjoyed working with docusaurus. Being able to embed live examples of the described SDK to initialise and play around with was excellent and helped us achieve really fast adoption from other teams in our org. I need to find an excu

I work with purely functional code in my day job and on several side projects, I'm not sure why you'd assume that. 20 years experience as a SE here but honestly I don't think it adds or subtracts from my point, nor should you

People who have not studied and been given that distinction in engineering going on to call themselves engineers is the reason the term is overloaded. I've always assumed there's a near 100% overlap between people using the term w

To denigrate so much of modern web technologies in the name of performance, and then use Typescript, over which you have no fine grained control of the performance of the transpiled code, is absolutely laughable.

Twitter hit upon some narrow product-market fit despite itself. It has never seemed to understand why it worked for some people or what it wanted to be, and how those two were related, if at all. But in a twist of fate that is often more o

It is easy. It's just a terrible idea. (So as it turns out having thought about it a bit, I am vehemently against this idea.) Type reflection at runtime would require polluting the JS environment with a lot of cruft. That might be a gl
