Eventually everything becomes toml. All jokes aside, I think the equivalent for this would be markdown not xml/csv/json/yaml.

This is sort of by design. Generally speaking Object.prototype.toString() does not accept parameters, I think the only "standard" implementation which takes parameters is Number.prototype.toString(). You can overwrite .toString wi

I think that is a good observation. I'm not sure I know anyone who would like any of these things in situations where they "had" to do them, and make them work on a tight deadline. Changing a flat tire to have a functional bi

I think bike maintenance is one of those things that is similar to how you read about programmers who pick up woodworking here on HN. I know it's a zen thing for me, similar to other "craftmanship" (I'm not sure if this

I may be sort of rose tinted, but I don't remember celebrities having as much of an impact on my generations compared to the SoMe influencer celebrities today. Possibly because they're so much "nearer" to the consumer th

I'd argue that if you ever use a single "any" then you're not using Typescript but simply writing JavaScript with more steps and a compile time. Any can be useful during development, but it should never reach production.

I'm not absolutely certain, but doesn't Typescript work exactly the same way Python does if you set it up to do so? I think the reason you may think you can't have dynamic types in Typescript is because it's generally re

I'm not sure how old you are, but as far as anecdotes goes it absolutely works on my teenage nephew and his social circle. Basically every product they own seem to be something they've seen someone with a lot of followers use on s

In the Danish public sector we provide services based on need assessments of citizens. Then we subsequently pay the bills for those services. Which amounts to thousands of small invoices having to be paid by a municipality each month. An ex

We're doing more and more of our back-end work with Rust. The main reason is the performance it provides. It's not just great for our end-users it's also so much cheaper in the modern world where we pay per mileage in the clo

I've worked in CS for two decades and I'm an external examiner for CS students and if it's any consolation I think frontend work will be some of the last programming jobs to be replaced by AI. I'm not sure the LLM's

Networking. Especially when you have to combine on-prem with cloud sollutions. At least in Azure it's an outright nightmare with the various private end-points and what not. AWS might be better, I know I much preferred it when we had R

I know I buy sort of expensive products, but most of the things I've bought recently like my christiania bike all have youtube channels detailing their products. I think that is frankly the only real way for brands to advertise to peop

The point I was trying to make was that there is no reason to worry about us setting fire to a fire. Of course you're correct, it'll get worse, but it's not like it wasn't terrible to begin with. If anything the optimist

The climate is burning. The Amazon is likely collapsing sooner than we expect. There are plenty of wars around the globe and a major multi country conflict brewing in Africa. Western politics are laughable, and still the best if you want to

We use Typescript for virtually everything at my place of work. Not so much because it's a great language for the a lot of the backend, and we do use some c++ for bottlenecks, but because it's so much more productive to use a sing

I once had to setup an Apple developer account to have one of our municipality apps shown as ours. I'm not sure why that was considering all our other apps never needed that, but it was what it was. It was a pretty terrible experience.

As far as I know a lot of the Jung and extended personality stuff was never meant to be taken as black and white personality traits the way mainstream western culture often does today. Especially because a lot of things that aren't act
