Awesome article. Maths education needs way more visualisation in it like this. I first found out about Kalman Filters when looking up how large ships use software to remain stationary in the same geographical location even whilst surrounded

This JSX syntax is a perfect example of one of its subtleties: map() creates an array, and an array of elements is automatically expanded to single elements. I know that when I learnt JSX, this was not intuitive. The word 'each' c

At least this time Svelte is a step closer toward the native browser stack rather than yet another abstraction layer.

Perhaps a shift in mindset about how to approach using Svelte would help. Svelte is not React, and using React for an extended period really changes how you think about frontend code (structure-wise etc). As a quick example, the Svelte

The "high tech illusion" concept spoken about by the book "Peopleware" relates to this. It's the idea that software engineering is viewed as a high-tech profession on par with something like rocket engineering. In r

Been using DDG for the past 3 years without any complaints except the lacking restaurant information. Everything else is on par with or better than Google.

Def fun for personal projects, but when it comes to work, I've been on projects made up of multiple services with the silliest, vaguest names ever; all this did was made it impossible to remember what each service actually did! Such a

I too, have found error handling in Go to be quite good even if it is verbose. I like knowing where exactly an error has come from and that the language makes me think about how to handle them before continuing. > ...but not annoyed by e
