I would frame this as: 1. Make sure there's always a trap-door where you can implement special cases 2. A good way to always have (or to create) a trap door is to compose out of smaller pieces; then if you need something to be differen

There's treating the root cause (totally agree with, except that as a task it's almost impossibly large/complicated to solve at a societal level), and then there's deciding not to do additional harm (prosecution) on to

Different strokes. Personally I avoid Docker in favor of source-code-deployment; the "magical pipeline" is usually just "git pull and then run a provided command". But Render does support Dockerfiles for eg. installing a

Render has been my drop-in successor to Heroku. No complaints except their weird team pricing, which doesn't matter for solo projects

Charitably: a wider userbase on desktop means there's more attention given to consumer hardware support, vendor/driver support, app support, desktop environment and distro work, etc etc, all of which makes the experience better fo

For a loop to do something useful it has to have side-effects[1], and side-effects are what functional programmers want to avoid [1] At the very least, on variables outside of itself

2¢, having non-runtime types makes code behavior easier to reason about, especially when aggressive type inference is present, and I'd hate to lose it One of the things I don't love about Rust is how type inference affects program

The other commenter mentioned `deno compile`, but also, if you're in a situation where you can assume everyone has the deno runtime installed (maybe it's a personal script, or it's org-internal or something) then you don'

This feels like such an obvious failure-mode that I just assumed when they announced it that it would be smarter- incorporating different sensors, factoring in the exact way it tumbles, etc. If it really is just absolute acceleration, the f

Came here to ask the same question

Thought: optimizing JIT compilers like V8 already observe code behavior and use that to choose how to optimize things as they go. I wonder if one day V8 will incorporate some ML to help study and optimize the running code

Yeah I think this has held/will hold up adoption. Of course web apps can implement their own tab UIs like native apps do, but many don't because they figure you already have tabs in your browser Chicken and egg

Asahi is designed to be dual-booted right now (in fact you have to go off the beaten path to not do that), and it even uses the native Apple boot UI to let you pick your OS

What's so weird is that Microsoft had the Hololens years ago. It had a similar price, hand-based interaction, entirely self-contained, etc. I used one once, and it was astonishing. A totally magical AR experience Of course the FOV wa

Right, but we (humanity) understand the purpose-made ML that Apple talked about today just fine, which is why it's better not to use a fuzzy term

AI as a term is poorly-defined, and conjures associations that range from sorta-accurate to totally fictional. ML is a specific set of concrete technologies, so it's a better and more precise term in most contexts

In addition to reviews, I've started to really enjoy format-on-save as a way to save keystrokes. Instead of manually formatting my code (even for myself), I can take the shortest editor path to the AST that I want and then have everyth
