   If the read(2) implementation itself never changes, then unit tests of it shouldn't ever break, I think...

   Thanks! Yes, you can using the export API (paid): https://www.ilograph.com/export-api/ The Desktop version can also export diagrams when called via CLI, though that is less suitable for CI/CD.

   Yeah, self-hosting is a bit of a nightmare. There is a Desktop version that allows you to export diagrams to HTML, which you then can be host or share.

   Funny, with Google you typically want to add "-best" to your searches to cut down on SEO spam.

   The worst engineers provide negative value, the metaphorical guys rowing the wrong way. Certainly some managers have experienced this.

    Are there any 10x professions? There are certainly 10x products and companies (e.g. Oreo vs. Hydrox, Google vs. Lycos). They got that why by making better choices. Many more than "10" x better choices. Could this apply to develope

    Are your tests for "the configuration is correct" or "the configuration file was found and read"...?

    > No one wants code that is hard to test There are cases when testability shouldn't be a concern. If you're writing code iteratively or in an agile way, for instance. Nothing is worse than CI/CD rejecting your experimenta

    But I have it on good authority I need 90% unit test coverage for branches, functions, and lines, and this is what makes code "quality".

    If it helps, use the term "superclass" instead of "base". Then it makes a little more sense to have it at the top.

    Maybe not harder, but microservices have made programming more frustrating. You have reduced freedom to write business logic; now most of your code is infrastructure, connections, and security (you are using the internet as a data bus, afte

    100ms times are cheaters; 200ms is probably closer to the absolute lower bound of human reaction time.

    10ms isn't even one frame at 60 FPS. Modern consoles have more "native" input lag than that.

    Absolutely. Posting to HN is a bit like shouting into a hurricane. During peak hours, there are often several posts per minute. Even good posts require significant luck to make it to the home page.

    Yeah, when he says "my math" he means "I'm assuming a 5% conversion rate for every app this guy has ever written". Which is insane, if you're wondering.
