Huh, it's funny but I have seen >> to the nth degree used in casual internet slang to indicate a similar concept. Almost certainly just used intuitively for emphasis, but it's interesting that it's also a real notation.

I've never used Python, but if there's an issue here it's probably because the value has to traverse through being a string and any opinions in the to/from string conversions could cause unexpected mutations to floats?

This reminds me of one of my pet hates; you pose to the team an issue that needs solving, or perhaps you're in the middle of solving, and someone pipes up with "Couldn't you just X?", where X is the first thing any com

My gut reaction was similar, I wish this instead linked to an article explaining some usecases. I'm assuming if you're writing Babel plugins maybe you want to turn some of these features off so you can make it do alternative behav

It's kind of amusing reading this as a Typescript dev because I'm so used to Typescript's expressiveness I couldn't really work out which trick it was trying to tell me was novel. The answer is structural typing (aka d

It was a gold rush at the start due to lack of market saturation (I remember having my new Switch and being able to peruse the entire store in 15 minutes). It's now approaching Steam levels of saturation / shovelware.

I'm reminded of enterprise-created videos that explain their business/products to generic "happy" music. Something different would immediately get my attention too. As other comments have pointed out, I think it's a
