The contract-first design and return to REST seem like solid improvements over trpc. Lately, I’ve been thinking about what would be the simplest way to typecheck a rest api. I wonder if… - …it would make sense to define endpoints in isolati

Ads don't pay for anything. You pay for ads. The cash flow is: you -> merchant -> manufacturer -> advertising department -> google -> influencer So if ads go away, theres two scenarios: A: the influencer was worth your m

I'd expect the law to broadly define an ad as any message, where the author has a conflict of interest. This would also include down propaganda on social media. We could then work backwards to define exceptions such as politicians spea

I dislike the disingenuous discussion around it. Last time this was posted, the author called out headlessui for being too complex, and presented a half-broken, non-accessible Select component as alternative. Digging around the code, I foun

This is probably written by someone who works with C# much more than with Typescript. There's nothing here about narrowing, (proper) type inference, union and intersection types etc... When I tried C#, coming from Typescript, I was fr

I've got this app for about a year now. Previously tried Intermission and Time Out. Apps like these must be carefully designed, since they always border on annoying/stressful. LookAway is easily the most finetuned app in this spac

JS/TS has y = { ...x, change: 'b' } And Swift avoids the mutability-problem all together, by providing structs with copy-on-write and self-mutating methods: https://docs.swift.org/swift-book/docu

I'd have no issue leaving translation enabled, if the translator was an optional feature that the user must opt-in to, and that's clearly communicated as something not controlled by the developer. But I've received reports fr

We should start recommending UIs as the default way to learn Git. It would solve a third of these problems and another third wouldn't even come up. If you later decide that the CLI is faster, go ahead. But first, people need to see v

I switched from JetBrains to Cursor after multiple years, and it's nowhere near as bad as the comments here make it out to be. For most of the rough edges, I've found workarounds at this point. I miss some of the refactorings, but

This is why I find this discussion so paradoxical. People, who are tired by the rapid change in Frontend-Dev, are surprisibgly eager to jump away from the most stable and backwards-compatible framework in this space, for which all the probl

I think what the definition fails to capture is the addiction-like behavior that this specific kind of content can induce. You feel yourself getting more tired and frustrated by the minute, yet you don't stop.

I don't think visual UI builders were ever the way forward. These work well for static UIs, but once you try to express dynamic constraints, they fall apart. Figma shows this: I find it useful to absolutely position elements (and maybe

I think you're misunderstanding the billion dollar mistake. It was not statically tracking null-references. In JS, everything is dynamic so it doesn't apply, and TS does check them. > My goal was to ensure that all use of refer

As an outsider to the Ruby-World but someone who has been burnt enough times by instances unexpectedly mutating themselves, I wonder: is it still a best practice in Ruby to mutate instances when computing values? Does Ruby somehow avoid the

Yep. I have the same frustration with GitHub and GitLab which add 3km of horizontal padding on phone screens for no reason.

TBF, reactivity in UI is still basically an unsolved problem with frameworks going in circles between data-binding, dependency-tracking, memoization & compilation. SwiftUI initially promoted their ReactiveX alternative.
