You just prove the point of the author above. If you had the real Preview on MacOS, you’d be using it all the time without even thinking, like 100% of MacOS users. Because it’s fast, it opens everything faster than you can think, and it ju

I trust that you thought you saw that, but bear in mind that satellite do NOT turn at all. The turns you see on Mercator projections are just that: projection artifacts. Circular low earth orbits (like the ISS) are great circles on the sphe

From my perspective, Gitlab needs to urgently reallocate 90% of its developper force from "Adding new features in 10 different axes" to "Stop adding new features and exclusively work on performance and consistent unified UX&q

In terms of mass it takes us halfway there already, from 10^30kg to 10^-3kg, with quantum effects arriving around 10^-15kg. And in terms of force, the article states that the force involved in that experiment is equivalent to the force of e

As a common notation, GraphQL is a good candidate and my favorite one. With a small set of conventions on top for pagination filtering and ordering.

The key differentiator of OVH is the very compact datacenters they achieve thanks to water cooling. Some OVH exec were touting about that in a recent podcast. Interestingly in this case, having a very compact data center was probably an agg

Really cool! We actually planned to do something similar at Sterblue 2 years ago but never prioritized it because it’s too far from our primary scope. But we definitely see the use for this exact tool, it’s really nice. This approach of « s

The map is relative to one location. You don’t want to see « rocks » and « rocks » for any distance smaller than 6000km, you want to see everyday objects. So you want the origin to be on earth surface

Well at least the article is aware of its own vanity. I was going to cite the XKCD about “standards” but it did for me. Just use JSON5 and stop losing time (or YML, yes it’s not that terrible for configuration files)
433.
by crubier 6y ago
No it doesn’t. I know the HN-crowd feeling about this, but no, YML doesn’t suck as a human configuration language. TOML or XML properly suck. YML is actually a superset of JSON with comments and less brackets if you want. It’s widespread an

Not really. If my memory serves me right, Planes are much safer than cars in terms of fatalities per km, safer than car per hour, and on par with cars in terms of fatal accident per flight. Planes flights are faster and longer than car trip

That’s an argument I can accept when talking about not spending trillions in wars and defense, but no when spending 1/10000th of that amount into the future of our species and something all our ancestors could only dream of: seeing ali

I agree on that actually, I’m generally annoyed by these HN comments like « this JS lib is shit because it’s more than 12kb, and why do you need JS anyway »

I posted a negative comment here (look it up), and I can explain why I still believe my comment is constructive, and why I don't think I fit in "people with little frontend experience". It's not an appeal to authority, b

Slow at bundle time like tailwind, AND slow at runtime like css in js. I don’t get these tools, the whole point of tailwind for me is the runtime performance combined with high flexibility! Twin is the worst of both worlds. The runtime cost

Yes exactly and this is why I have a MacBook, which has a keyboard and a trackpad and a decent screen. I don’t want my phone to be a general purpose computer. Not everything has to be that.

Really really cool. Now there is two things I need to be able to use it in my project: 1) support direct hook into three JS, to allow to mix other three js stuff within the scene. 2) GLTF or even 3D tiles support, like cesium or iTowns. Is

By serious I meant large indeed, I’m not a native speaker. I have some serious projects that have less than 180 packages too aha. But if you start an ambitious company with a JS codebase today, start with yarn v2, you’ll save yourself some

by crubier 6y ago
I did try it but it caused two problems as compared to yarn v2: the dependency resolution algorithm seems less deterministic or strict, causing version incompatibilities that yarn v2 did solve, and also the symlinks are poorly supported by

Pnpm is indeed better than npm but I found it’s symlinking approach less compatible than yarn v2, (nextJS for example didn’t support pnpm until very recently) while also having less deterministic module resolution, creating version compatib

by crubier 6y ago
Well yarn exists for this purpose so I guess I’m not the only one doing this. And if the alternative involves having to manage independent versioning of 180 packages and their inter-dependencies then no thanks. I’m not saying the situation
