Just my opinion, but I found the deno 2 announcement video with all the little dev "mini-bits" to be pretty cringe, but at the very least it was original. Seeing the Bun team do it, too, just leaves me with the cringe. Anyway, hap

If matrix multiplication does get added to this, I imagine that there is some utility for game development. At that point, I'd be curious what the comparison would be from CPU to GPU. Like, given a clock speed of x, what would a compar

Good on ya! HTML+JS is plenty performant for a blog and I'm always happy to see more people eschewing frameworks when they're not necessary. I've been writing a progressive web app that is, itself, a "web component"

Maybe I'm just a malcontent, but for me this begs the question: couldn't this be used in reverse as activism? Like, if enough people used enough fake accounts and started relentlessly submitting takedown requests on the biggest ch

I've used PeerTube for years and it has always baffled me how laughably bad its user experience is. Literally so bad that I've never told someone about it without them immediately just asking me stuff instead of getting the inform

Blender was my first thought here, too. A while ago, I was asked to write a plugin for Blender since I really liked the program. I looked into it but realized that it was a python-only situation and I really just can't stand coding lik

Nothing rigorous at all, no. I did do a lot of practical tests, as a way to compare what I had been doing to what was planned to be done, but I've found js is plenty performant for the types of CPU work I needed done, which is the big

It doesn't sound like you have an architecture that is particularly conducive to renderer-based programming, but that's not to say it's a difficult or complicated port. That all depends on the details. When going to a dedicat

For the record - I can't imagine any tangible value in writing a graphics engine (and form library) for an environment that was literally designed as a graphics engine for forms. But, that disclaimer aside, I've considered WASM fo

I'm surprised to see javascript so high up on the list! I would have thought PHP was faster, honestly. But I did run the benchmark in my browser and saw that the browser JS in chrome is slightly slower than Deno at ~1.2-1.3s. Even thou

Adam was solving a different problem statement. Kenji's point was to have one simple rule that anyone could remember and follow to make the best cuts without having to worry about precision. This rule gets you close enough to the homog

Bluesky picked up AOC and Mark Cuban in the past couple of days, amid their million-new-users-in-a-week influx, so I think the successor has been chosen and the writing is on the wall for anyone looking for an out. Twitter has still got spo

Right but, to my eyes, that's vague? What I'm asking is if I need to manage the sqlite file, as I would on an OS's file system, or if accessing the sqlite library will automatically persist that data to those web-native stora

I wasn't able to tell from a quick look through the page: could someone help me understand the use cases here? More specifically, would this be able to be a "replacement" for indexedDB? Does the data persist, or do I need to

Yeah, it's kind of wild to see the general reaction to this being "the developer is being unreasonable". It's like... I, too, find it burdensome for a review that claims to be "manual" to suddenly flag a file m

With the added benefit of built-in upscaling! I would have loved, as a kid, to design my own "clubhouse" with coffee stirrers before going out in the yard and building a full sized one to chill in.

lol I can't tell if you actually believe that I'm somehow hyper-focused on this because I was able to scrawl out two paragraphs, or if you're just deflecting, but either way it's pretty funny! I said a thing. You said

Yes, a well tested and well researched opinion. Just like I'm sure your opinion was. The difference is, I didn't say "Here's a better UX". I said "This is an appropriate use for the UX". I didn't back

lol My case is a reference to a real-life, literal sitaution that I was involved with. The "opinions" expressed as why I would or would not do certain things had PLENTY of A/B testing and research done on them. Not only inter

This might not be a good use case because I just started doing it and never found a good reason to stop, but I use WeakMaps for keeping references to HTML elements at runtime in library code where I don't want to require a constructor&

by catapart 2y ago
I'm happy to look at your A/B testing and research on the subject, but I'm less interested in your unsupported opinions about what "better" UX is or how unmanageable multiple toasts become.

I'd add one more scenario: when the UI element that would give feedback, normally, has been removed, yet you still want to show feedback. If I removed a task from a board, I can't show - on the task - how to undo that action. Ther

I like C# as a scripting language, so I'm happy to see the more modern versions of it made available through projects like this.

"needing to be saved from" is a far cry from the 'used as an excuse for disclosure' that I accused them of. But I do appreciate the irony in conspiracists accusing others of racketeering (or otherwise unduly influencing

I'm not in a position to disclose anything, but there is plenty of information out there about who was storing data in what repositories and what those people were using other, less-protected, repositories for. Using the strictest logi

He didn't "share songs on the internet". He created a site where you can upload anything with complete privacy and anonymity. And then used it for racketeering, allegedly, which is where the government interest starts. The RI
