We have UI client tests that cover everything from API, the business logic layer, as well as testing any local logic in higher order and UI components. Some examples: - At the API layer, it mocks the network layer and tests that, when trigg

We have hundreds of tests for our client side projects (web app, mobile app), and they definitely do more than what you describe. Some are simple (although very few are as simple as your example) and some are complex, depending on the porti

I'm guessing he'll (Wes Bos) bring it up on Syntax.fm, the podcast he does with Scott Tolinski. They've talked about this site before and I would be surprised if they don't bring this up and discuss how/why it faile

The real money isn't in VR right now though. The real money is in AR. Does this fit that? Not sure, but there are hundreds of use cases for something like this in the workplace (and not just for developers/desk workers). Think the

by LocalPCGuy 4y ago
I feel like your comparisons to slavery are an appeal to emotion rather than a rational argument. Can you either expand further on your argument (rather than just stating it as fact) or link to somewhere where you (or someone who represents

There is a LOT of room for improvement on copyright and patent laws, no disagreement. But there is a lot of middle ground between where we are now and no laws at all around copyright/patents. In an increasingly digital society, creator

Ah cool, thanks, that's why I was clarifying. I'll check it out.

Eh, "many others"? It's about 2% generally, and it's folks who are generally very well aware of how to re-enable it if needed. IMO, JavaScript is a building block of the web and there is no need in 2023 to build without

Oh sure, I am aware, just mis-typed it in the comment.

Are you making a claim that him changing his opinion is a negative (real question, I could not tell if you were making a value judgement from your post). I don't know enough about that specific scientist, but in general, I tend to resp

FWIW, it's been shown that just the act of taking notes enhances the memory of the person doing it, whether they refer back to the notes at a later time or not. As to the value of note taking in general, for devs, I equate it to tellin

Not really super important, but thoughts on using an SVG when the same hamburger button affect can be generated with just a tiny bit of HTML/CSS? As little as one element with :before/:after for the top/bottom bars, although

Definitely - there's a whole class of stuff related to Progressive Enhancement that is being re-learned (and re-shared) every couple years, it seems like. There was whether CSS was expected to be available. In 2011, it was still being

You could actually skip the button altogether and just make the checkbox input keyboard focus-able but visually hidden. You also avoid the issues with the hash also, as the user is then directly interacting with the element that toggles the

I do think they are being very intentional in how they release and frame things, and one of the things dripping it out can do also is produce some level of fatigue on reporting it. It definitely seems like they knew some things before it ca

Excusing the fact it was a joke, on the serious side, a person shouldn't have any kind of set of "good" passwords. They should just have secure passwords they have auto-generated and have some way of retrieving the password f

I don't think I actually put this together until I read your comment. My actual diagnosis came just after I went off keto after having been doing it pretty steadily for about 3 years. I wonder now if the reason I noticed the symptoms o

Also of note, the activities listed are often considered "thrill seeking" which those with ADHD are often more highly attracted to (compared to the average person) for the extra dopamine hits.

It's actually about 5% of the population expected to have ADHD (diagnosed or not). A lot of people get distracted or bored, procrastinate at times, without it being a symptom of ADHD.

Definitely a lot of study in this, and much of it has shown there is a very strong sign that it is genetic and inheritable. As others have mentioned, twin studies and family studies have strongly supported a genetic component. Doesn't

I personally am a proponent of rebase, but not all the time and not for every workflow. It has it's place though, IMO. I like/value clean history and good commit messages (although I admit I don't always succeeding providing
