I guess the thing is that for any bit of reasoning, “there’s math for that”. So whether it feels like you’re using maths or not, you are. Restructuring code, for example, often needs a good grasp of negation in logic. Do you need formal tra

For those that are unaware, it’s literally the same system underneath. Vscode talks to language servers to do all the work and they’ve architected the system in such a way that others can talk to them too. Coc.vim provides the plumbing to d

The issue I always had with it is that you can’t see the really good answers (unless that’s changed). I wanted to push an “I give up” button so I could access answers that would help me learn.

I’d not heard the term fiber before react reworked their framework around it. Is it a more general thing, and is there a good resource to learn about the theory?

Beautiful. I love that it looks like it’s all being built on its side but then he skews it back and it’s really just been there the whole time, leaning over so you don’t notice the structure.

I was excited then for a second but I don’t think this means what I think it does. Does this mean it’s possible to disable the auto play on trailers for something unrelated when you finish a series? I literally finished Bojack Horseman afte

While I agree with some of your comment, I feel like it’s harsh to paint the whole chrome enterprise with that brush. Chrome was about freeing the world of a truly terrible web browser and a lot of devoted devs have spent a lot of time work

So memorable. My greatest triumph being “Extra special”. (Spoiler: I count myself in the vanishing small Only Connect segment that both shops at ASDA and buys the premium range)

Yeah, it’s private unfortunately. I really enjoyed that little diversion too, wonderful project. Just enough detail in the article that you get a nice little taste of the complexity without getting lost in the detail. Bravo all round.

Do you have interactions to worry about or are you just loading some data to display on the page once with no further behaviour?

Then I wouldn’t worry about any of that. You could put an htaccess file in front of the api so you have to enter a known in / pw - but that’s handled by the browser. Just do the absolute simplest thing you can do until you have more co

The API already exists? The very simplest thing to do in 2020 (assuming modern browsers) is to use fetch: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch_API/U... Having said that, you probab

Oh it’s insane. You’ve never seen a process like it. Nothing happens, but it takes forever. Half of the sale chains fall apart during the wait. Brexit delays seem a whole lot more obvious in that context.

Unless you’re in England, where people can drop out or change their price on a house sale or purchase at any time, even after months of legal red tape.

Unfortunately Sonos just seems to work well out of the box. Since we’re here, does someone have a good opensource alternative? Plug and play multi room audio streaming from Spotify et al?

You're right. I remembered the reason after reading your sibling comment and almost deleted my comment to avoid the confusion. Thanks for going into the details.

I’m not sure if you’re for or against here. Walking the container is exactly what you have to do, and it is horrible. More importantly, if it’s not your library, you don’t get any choice on how the equality check is implemented.

I was thinking more of the case where the types match but objects and arrays with the same contents are considered different. I’ve watched every member of my team get stung by it again and again - and then have to create workarounds to get

It’s actually due to python late binding. The variables are looked up at call time, rather than function define time. One could argue that your example shouldn’t work anymore in python3 since variables in list comprehensions go out of scope

After a long time using both languages, I’d argue that non-sane equality checks in js is the biggest source of bugs.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but I’d argue that arrow syntax in js is equally special syntax as lambda function. They’re both native ways of making anonymous functions. Python’s version is more clunky, but no more special
