Even if you have Lodash in your codebase, there are a bunch of functions it offers that have direct built-in analogues at this point, and I think it's still best to skip the library versions of those Ironically I don't see all o

I can say from experience it's possible to be in an abusive work environment and not decide to quit (through some combination of unawareness of how bad things are, fear of having given up, not wanting to re-enter the job market, etc) I

You can't really know. Even other people's anecdotes don't mean much, because everybody has different things that make them happy or unhappy. The only way to really learn how things are is to venture out and see for yourself!

Yeah, I got a very early pair and they started to break down after about a month. Random pops and sharp high-pitched sounds, before eventually they stopped working at all A few months ago I decided to see if they'd worked out the kinks

I noticed some mild tinnitus I must have already had when I first tried out the ANC. It didn't take me long to acclimate and stop noticing it, but it was pretty noticeable at first

I wonder how much of this is causing tinnitus, vs the total silence revealing (or intensifying) tinnitus

The article felt kind of disjointed, I think that statement was just meant generally and not meant to suggest it applies here

It reads as a little bit of a tautology. "People are using it because people use it". I get that from a hireability standpoint it's a real thing to consider, but the statement doesn't say anything about whether or not Py

Dependency management/tooling. Python (philosophically) treats the whole system as a dependency by default, in contrast with other modern languages that operate at the project/workspace level. This means it's very hard to iso

It's really funny that one of the subheadings under "Why is Python so popular?" is "It has high corporate demand."

I'm one of Python's biggest critics (to me it's a Monkey's Paw of software development), but I think this is exactly the appropriate situation to use it. It's great for one-off fancy calculations, system scripts, id

Apps embed the TikTok SDK so they can see ad conversions. If they can't serve ads (because there's no app), they won't have a reason to send it data

Very cool! And this is under the pop-os github org, which I assume means it's being developed for Pop_OS and shared with the community

Right okay, so, let's get our terminology straight real quick: an "import map" is just a piece of configuration that says, "when someone imports from module name X, load it from Y". This would for example let you `i

I believe Deno is doing this, though (could be wrong)

I might be missing something, but I'm not seeing how import maps are related to tree-shaking (of individual declarations within a module) Importing ES modules directly instead of bundling will probably mean you ultimately load more cod

Fair. I wonder if Fresh includes some kind of polyfill for those (or maybe the transpiler factors in which browser the current request is being made from?)

by brundolf 4y ago
(At least in React) the JSX gets transpiled to function calls, which are then run at render time with a particular set of data. That first transpilation step will always come out the same and can be cached.

Yes, but it's distinct from bundling, which is what most of the GP's concerns were around.

I think the benefits of leaning on a (very familiar) protocol instead of a central repository outweigh the risks you describe Like you mentioned- mirrors could become more common, and relying on HTTP makes it incredibly easy to host your ow

by brundolf 4y ago
It sounds like (it is a little vague) there is no bundling at all, the only thing Deno does magically at request time is transpiling TypeScript/JSX to browser-compatible JS. Beyond that I think the idea is it relies on native ES mo

It's funny, all three of these optimizations seem like they would mainly apply to ads and tracking scripts One interpretation is that those are just one of the biggest power-sinks, so they're a high-value thing to target. But a cy
