I just tried this in VSCode using Intelephense and it detected the invalid syntax just fine ("PHP 5.4+ syntax found."). I've never done PHP development, but it only took a few clicks to set it up (install extension and go in

This reminds me of the story Steve Yegge told about Emacs powering Amazon's customer service for years: > Mailman was the Customer Service customer-email processing application for ... four, five years? A long time, anyway. It was w

To expand on this, I’d totally support regulations requiring states to maintain some level of supply chain independence and diversity of software and hardware between them, to improve resilience against attacks.

For me a big difference would be not sending my data to Google. Even Lineage OS still sends a bunch of data to Google all the time. If you’re not careful it sends location data, DNS queries, etc. I want a mobile OS that gives me complete

You’re going to miss a lot of talent by reading too much into peoples’ resumes. There are dozens of possible explanations for any given bullet point that range from horrible to excellent. Trying to draw too many conclusions from a resume

I agree that it's not black-and-white. It's also not as dramatic as the land analogy suggests. There are plenty of other email providers that are perfectly socially acceptable to use.

The technical mechanisms for maintaining a stable identity already exist. Why aren't people using them?

Land is a weak analogy here, because land is scarce.

What is it about Safari that leads to it performing better than the competitors, and why can't they seem to figure it out? Is it because Safari is using undocumented APIs that only Apple is allowed to use? If so, that's a deal br

We can't control most of those things, since they are already established and institutionalized and very difficult to change. However during the transition from buying to renting clothes, we do have an opportunity to influence the out

I think the Go docs can be more discerning about when to use channels and when to use shared memory. The broad advice of "share by communicating" is too broad, too many people learn Go and think they need to use channels and CSP

The problem is that you can’t leave any room for interpretation, because governments generally interpret things as liberally as they can in their favor, to the brink of absurdity. In other words, “encryption” needs to be listed there as a r

I’d argue that they’re not entirely wrong. The lives and problems of rural Americans are dramatically different than urban Americans, and given the all-or-nothing nature of the system, neither side is well represented when the other has po

The language goes out of its way to minimize concepts, the number of ways state can be mutated (eg no thread locals), over-abstraction, and dynamic meta-programming. It emphasizes explicit control flow, preferring code duplication that is

Then explain why so we can actually have a productive conversation. Making bare assertions just wastes everyone’s time, including yours.

This used to be the case for me. With the growth of LSP and DAP, it's no longer an issue, and I'm back in Emacs for the vast majority of my daily work (including Java). I hope LSP beats JetBrains products. It's an open stan

Not as an absolute. Speaking broadly, outside of this specific context, it seems obvious to me that systems which are sufficiently dysfunctional should cede their power to a better system. In the US at least, this is laid out at the very b

That sounds good in theory but I think in practice, at least in the relatively broken representative system in the US, I'm not so sure. Consider that politicians often operate against the will of ~49% of their constituents. As long as

I said nothing about monopolization, I would appreciate if you would not mischaracterize what I said. If a company’s customers solely use their product, and not a mix of products, it’s much easier for the company to support and build new fe
