Very glad to hear that! Now that I know what is going on, I check the console whenever the request doesn't appear in Network tab, but it is very unintuitive. Keep up the good work!

Doesn't, imho of course. MobX makes creating and using global variables way too easy. One of the more nightmarish legacy projects included hunting down the culprit that sometimes changed some variable in mobx store. Abysmall tooling (c

Also, while Rust does bring additional guarantees to the table, I wonder if they are really the ones that matter (much) in web dev. Having a strongly typed language is a bonus, but a) there is TypeScript and b) the maintainability nightmare

You can still try Qwant (pretty good in my experience), Bing or Startpage (which uses Google in the back - but I never had any trouble with AMP when using it). It's not like there is no choice. And of course, there should be no reason

Ah, well said, that will teach me to give unsolicited advice to strangers! :) You give very good reasons for quitting and if there is such a basic disconnect between you and the activity of coding, it absolutely makes sense to pursue other

I like the way GitLab solves this. You mark your secrets ("CI/CD env vars") as protected, then only protected branches and tags can use them. When someone has right to merge or push to a protected branch, thay of course gain

It is a nice game though, and even quite playable. Not to mention it is a great hack. As for the back button, I would argue that this is a problem that browsers should solve. Even in the wild, it happens often that the first page immediat

No, not really, I read the whole post. And the FORTRAN reference was weird, but there are weirder things people post (and believe), and when writing, people do make mistakes. Thinking back, it should have been the clue, but it wasn't.

Or maybe HN needs an autosuggest function, something similar to what SO has? "These news were posted recently and match yours pretty closely, are you sure you want to post another one?"
