I've been looking for something like this, hopefully other users can weigh in if the curation is any good.

I don't think I understand signals. What's reactive about them? I have to wrap every primitive in a custom object and I have to call setters for every primitive and I also have to define a function for computing derived values

What is the benefit of having it closed source? My view is that Datomic is a novel upstart in the persistence space. Most of their competition - Postgres, Mongo, Cassandra - is open-source, so they're just shooting themselves in the fo

My life experience has been that it's much easier to spot someone has a prepared answer to a soft question than a technical one. I immediately feel like I'm not having a conversation with them. That's why even in technical in

You either care about the order of complexity, which is the big O, or you care about real-world performance of byte level operations. You can't have it both ways.

Huh, cool. I imagined in most non-english speaking countries (outside of EU), getting English literature isn't easy.

The disdain is fueled by companies' behavior. Your approach makes sense, but if that were the case, then a DSA whiteboard interview should be a fail/pass -- a company shouldn't prefer a candidate that managed to cook up an O(

"A great interview question" for what? The author sings their praises, but never actually explains what this question is good at testing or what makes it worth an interviewer and candidate's time. Results might favor younge

How do you get a vast catalogue of physical copies of English books in India?

Looks neat, but most of the books I have are showing as "currently unavailable" :(

There are no words for how much this sucks. If you are outside the US/EU, reasonably priced books in english aren't easy to find. CompSci literature in English? Forget it, buddy. Book Depository had decent prices with free interna

We still use self-hosted GitLab. It's crazy expensive but we're completely locked in to their CI/CD pipelines plus we still enjoy using it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'd much rather have D/M/Y, since then data is ordered by relevance. If I'm seeing a full date, I probably care more about the day than the month, and more about the month than the year. This is just pure bikeshedding th

The "innovation" is really a retreat to Youtube. Their livestream UX can't hold a candle to Twitch or even Mixer, but you livestream on Youtube, you can slightly (re)structure your livestream and leave it up as a 2-3 hour vi

I haven't played enough with it to give good feedback, I've edited my comment to be more fair. * Seems to me that a lot of the keyboard shortcuts are chords or require hitting an arrow key, sometimes even both. Example: VS Code&#x

No clue, I'm not affiliated with the devs in any way, I've just been very excited about it since one of the devs tweeted this: https://twitter.com/nathansobo/status/1498053586059620354 However, my first

As much as I love the product, I've really come to dislike Gitlab as a company. The constant price hikes and the gutting of the free tier aren't exactly developer-friendly.
