But that "framework" could be a simple factory function.

The term "CRUD application" triggers me, because it is mostly an oversimplification. Technically almost any application can be boiled down to these fundamental operations, but this level of abstraction is not very useful to talk a

From my experience AI tools can help a lot to write some parts of your code. You could for example generate a parameterized test from several similar tests. Doing the same by hand might take half an hour, where it would only a take a minute

As someone else wrote: we have apps and not websites now and if you look at what was named "HTML5" it is basically a software platform where you can run applications on. It really is client application development today, html

HTMX 2 stopped IE support, so that shouldn't be an issue.

There is really no strong argument why Selenium should be better than Cypress. The only meaningful difference is the number of supported language, as far as the article describes these frameworks.

MySQL was kind of a fast toy database in the early days, but it was good enough to power simple PHP based websites.

Since I had the "joy" to use TypeORM (node.js stuff), I really value Hibernate, although there are some little corner cases I'd like to be better. But ORMs solve a really hard problem and I haven't seen anything better t

Fly.io seems to be a bit of a mixed bag: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41917436 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35044516 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34742946 https:&#x

Percentage values in the range of thousands are somewhat pointless. A usual factor, not normalized to 1/100, would be a better fit, but would probably not make such a catchy headline.

This is what I like about Java: There is a culture of giving things descriptive names with very few abbreviations. Compare this with Go, where you can find tons of ugly C-style abbreviations.

Maybe open source foundations should be more selective with the projects. I'm thinking of Oracle dumping OpenOffice, although it was obvious that LibreOffice is the way to go.

That is a nice way to migrate to AsciiDoc. After the migration happened you can add more advanced syntax provided by AsciiDoc.

Depending on the content, I would recommend AsciiDoc (and not Markdown) to write a book. Markdown might be a good fit for text-only books like fiction, but AsciiDoc has much more useful formattings for structrured documents like technical o

I'm satisfied with Hugo: https://gohugo.io/ It is very fast and has a lot of features. The syntax highlighting for code looks also very good.

Since RAR and 7-zip is supported by Windows out of the box these days, I can not think of much scenarios where you would benefit from WinRAR in a way you'd be willing to spend money for. https://www.pcmag.com/news/

I disagree with the static vs. dynamic typing part. Modern statically typed languages (like Kotlin, Scala, Rust etc.) are concise and readable. In the case of the Groovy DSL for Gradle it was sometimes hard to get code right or to find a bu

I'd like it the other way around and want to see Flutter APIs for other languages (lets say Kotlin). Personally I feel no desire to learn Dart to use it only for Flutter.

You speak from my soul! I'm in the Java world for a really long time now and I'm wondering for years why the build tools need to be so complicated an annoying. I know Go, Node.js and bit of Rust and all have more pleasant easier t

You have to keep in mind that Gradle Inc. earns money by providing consulting for complex builds. An easy build tool would destroy this business model ;-)

The comparision with Gradle is not up to date. There is stated that you would end up in an untyped mess of Groovy build files, but statically typed Kotlin files are the default for quite some time now in Gradle! https://mill-buil

I did that for quite some time, but I had severe issues with multiple editing users and with android apps. All the tricks I tried, like nested vaults didn't fully work in the end. So I ended up with 1Password.

I completely agree with you! Almost everyone needs to store more than only usernames and passwords for websites. Think of PIN for credit cards and the like.

Moving to Linux is not an option for everyone. I like Linux for development, but from time to time I use other software (e.g. graphics software) that is only available for Windows and macOS. Hopefully more commercial software will be availa

Too bad .io became the hipster domain of the day. It was a bad idea to misuse a ccTLD for coolness in the first place ...

I like the idea to pay for quality content - or search results. If you don't pay for it, someone else will and the "sponsor" will probably have different objectives than you. So, you won't get the best information and it

You speak from my soul! An often underestimated fact is the future growth in features and complexity. Following the CRUD way this might easily end up in a mess, where you can hardly see domain concepts in all the technical code.

I see one obstacle by this transparency approach: How to create a fair measure for "impact"? I would say that it is very hard to measure the actual impact of a senior developer. He gives advice here and there, he influences decisi
