Everyone travelling to, enjoying holiday in, or visiting events in Saudia Arabia, the UAE and gulf states with a comparable state of development has their blood on their hands. Yet still, people - especially in the tech industry - tend to r

Same with GitLab. I really appreciate the builtin Mermaid support.

Granted, all of my machines are pretty new and powerful. Maybe performance is a lot worse on >5yo machines.

I have used both unbearably slow IDEs like Visual Studio, Android Studio, Atmel Studio and very fast and lightweight editors like Notepad++ and Sublime Text. I don't have any issue with the speed of VS-Code on my machine and it feels t

What kind of codebases do you work with? Other than with multi-MB files or thousands of multi-cursors, I've never had any performance issues with VS-Code. It's actually one of the fastest Electron apps, I would say. If I notice a

If you use it as advanced IntelliSense/auto-complete, it's not any worse than with typed languages. If you just let it generate and run the code... yeah, probably, since you won't catch the issues at compile time.

Depends if they include test code in this metric. I have found AI most valuable in generating test code. I usually want to keep tests as simple as possible, so I prefer some repetition over abstraction to make sure there's no issues wi

Well, statistically, 9 out of 10 engineers find this very funny come Monday.

90% of the time, I care more about someone like that understanding my script than the tiny performance impact of an extra process or 'misusing' a function.

The argument is that it's redundant because 'cat f | head' does the same as 'head f' I don't mind either way but I find starting with a cat and reading LTR to be very easy to understand.

There's a huge shift in this field at the moment. I personally find it disrespectful to talk to people while wearing headphones/earbuds and I'd still consider myself young but a lot of younger people, especially u25 seem to f

Why would I write my own http proxy in Go if I needed rate limiting and something like this was provided as an easy to use binary or docker image?

This used to be pretty standard but has largely gone away, unfortunately. I blame frameworks that encourage the user to just use their "obvious" specific directory structure that works for 80% but people still make up the other 20

For most of my deployments, the performance impact of a reverse proxy is negligible, I have the configs pre-prepared and it allows me to add TLS termination, URL rewrites or other shenanigans without much effort in the future. So for me, it

Yes but at least it's too many cooks spoil the broth and not the cook spat in your soup so now pay double and order a beverage subscription.

Nothing I'm looking forward to than a generation of sysadmins who use 99% correct commands and get the output parsed for them 99% correct.

This is really cool! For people who don't want to go full scale sim and prefer a bit of a lighter interpretation of working with signalling screens, I can recommend Rail Route ( https://store.steampowered.com/app/11

Signing by a central authority makes a lot of sense... if only that authority would sign off on the software being secure instead of the software fitting their current mood and business strategy.

Even ignoring the userbase, GitLab or BitBucket would have a better chance at hosting thriving projects. Sourcehut has a very good and noble idea but it just adds so much complexity in the name of purity to a hurdle that is already very big

In addition to that, I don't think people should overthink the rack as an essential component. I like racks as much as the next guy and homelab racks look really cool but for usability and learning, just go with whatever you like. I pe

Are we belitteling people now because they have intrinsic standards and pride in the quality of their work instead of blindly chasing whatever is best for their replaceable career in a hypercapitalistic environment?

I never claimed Google isn't doing something similar with the Play store. They might not choose to limit functionality as much but Android does not have first-class support for web apps either. Windows uses executables and msi's a

It's not like the EU randomly compiled a list of 600 APIs that need to be added. This should be read more as "browser developers could now finally offer PWAs 600+ APIs that Apple explicitly forbid them to offer for years".

People don't care because Apple has made sure they don't care. They have crippled web app adoption for years to push the app store and now argue that "well, only a few people use that anyways". How many apps in the app s

True. The "dark mode" button just strikes me as equally childish, though it's obviously a joke in this case.

The issues they point out are fair btw, just criticizing the reaction.
