unless one is in need of piping files (and streams) in a complex and prolific way, npm scripts or a makefile can supplant Gulp/Grunt with much less overhead.

A couchDB package perhaps, for which the db supports access via http. Or look at any of over 1000 of sindresorhus' packages - a majority of which are meant to be used in both environments. I've seen plenty of backend services usin

You discovered it because of reddit and HN. Others have dev.to, SO, Twitter, etc. Most devs today have to be mobile and inquisitive. It's not really a field for the complacent.

The globally installed packages only take precedence over local packages when you run the binary name from the command line. To get that to stop, you'd have to add the local node_modules/.bin to the PATH. Additionally, if you run

I'm in agreement with you. But I'm also an old salt that's been using it for nearly 8 years. I completely understand how someone unfamiliar with the language and its nuances may be overwhelmed by the configuration options and

I do almost exclusively backend and DX development on Node and it's a joy. None of the frontend world's problems. There is value in an ecosystem that lets you do it "your way," rather than enforcing convention. It's

The beauty is that those distinctions don't exist. There are no limitations. There are also no guardrails or training wheels.

Gulp and Grunt? Are you a time traveler from 2012?

The node ecosystem doesn't have a tooling problem. Frontend development has had a tooling problem since the introduction of React and Angular, and TypeScript. One might argue that goes back as far as CoffeeScript. But can we stop boost

As the author responded to you on your comment on their post; they did none of the things you're baselessly accusing them of. Bad form.

As an aside it's pretty bad form to continue to try and draw a person into an argument they've repeatedly stated they're not attempting to make nor have interest in joining. Stop trying to make fetch happen. I have no argumen

I get around 60 calls a day, many of them are repeat attempts. T-Mobile's app blocks 99% of them. I get around a dozen texts a day for the real estate nonsense. Messenger does a good job of marking those as spam. I've tried a numb

I'm not and have not argued that. That's where I believe you may be leading with emotion.
346.
by andrew_ 4y ago
it would seem that you are basing aspects of argument on feelings, perceived individual benefit, and speculation. That's not a debate I'm interested in engaging in. I prefer to look at the facts as they are at present.

To the argument within my comment, the purpose of the money is of no consequence. It is merely fact that the money was injected. The moral consequences or beneficiary of that money don't have bearing on the fact that the money was inje

I believe they had numbers on how much money was injected into the economy from the money printer, they had numbers around how many people had exited the workforce and available jobs versus filled. These folks are supposed to be analytical,

While I do believe supply chain issues had a lot to do with triggering, I cannot look past the invention of 1.5 trillion dollars that were injected into the economy, nor can I look past the hit to labor resulting from government policies ar

Glucose index effect can play a large role in weight gain and retention. A lot of the NSS products have a worse GI effect than straight cane sugar, especially the sugar alcohols.

This is especially problematic as Twitter doesn't allow people to use numbers from Google Voice and other digital phone number services.

These are all photos that look like they were taken with disposable cameras in the early 2000s. First thought was "why do all of these look like they were taken at my college parties?"

My guess as to why you're not getting replies because the content of your comment is highly polarizing, contains assertions as absolutes rather than points of debate, and would likely result in camp vs. camp which will play out ad infi

Great news. Now tackle "real estate opportunity" and "off market" robocalls. I get two dozen of them a day, for which I thank TMobile for filtering out most.

We still need a 12v solution for the peasants that boat offshore. The current monthly fee represents a full year of boat payments. Definitely not targeted at consumers.

I learned via the htmlgoodies website, and iirc that was late 1996. Printed pages of things I wanted to remember, and put them in a red binder that I still have to this day.

It's not backwards compatible, it's just Node compatible. Demo is not, and it's stated as much clearly. Thus the suggestion that bun is more backward-compatible than Deno is incorrect and speaks to a fundamental misunderstand

All my stuff is fairly simple AWS via CDK, plenty of time for creative dev. But I do agree, k8s is not a requirement.

That's incorrect. The statement was only true under both conditions. The user chose to chop one half off to argue the whole. If you have citable evidence to the contrary, please provide. The link I provided cited actual Florida and Fed
