I think our industry will have a wake up call during the recession. At least I hope so. Companies need so many people because developers have become parasites sucking up all company resources writing a two text field form.

The index.js thing is a very bizarre thing that I think is result of people not knowing how to use an editor. Literally just use a flat directory and use your editor to group / roll up the files in a directory. Button.tsx Button.spec.

Meteor predates Promises and Async/Await. You have to remember at the time all you had was callbacks and async.js to manage them. There was Bluebird around 2014 but Meteor was even before that. Meteor uses node-fiber, I assume it st

Note, I didn't say all animations, I said page transition. Don't animate a page transition.

Acemarke, I know you're fighting the good fight with Redux Toolkit. I personally use it for truly global state with React Native. It's unfortunate the Redux name has a bad connotation for some as RTK is really good. And for som

Almost 100% of this post is completely wrong. Don't use 3rd party libraries: NIH syndrome is plaguing our industry like a disease already. Can't wait until companies realize they need half the devs they do now. Our industry nee

Might be good for our industry, which IMO is in shambles, with mountains of over-engineering and complexity that has spread like a parasite consuming its host from the inside.

Yea, would have been nice if the W3C actually gave us usable components, but hey you can connect your MIDI keyboard to the browser.

I mean I'm sure it's tough but it's not forever. Also co-sleeping helps. Never understood why people get up to feed babies.

You didn't need to throw yourself off a cliff though. Just think of something like Jockey's Ridge.

It's starting to look like we'll need general intelligence AI to solve self driving fully within cities. For trucking, let AI solve the long distance stuff, then have drivers drive the last few miles. I don't know if it wou

They should just rename Autopilot to some generic thing (but not Autopilot haha) like every other companies adaptive cruise control. Then use Autopilot for FSD.

It's interesting to see that even customers get Autopilot and Full Self Driving mixed up.

I've really gotten into self driving the past couple years. Watched every video I can find on it. Got a Toyota Rav 4 bought a Comma 2 then later a Comma 3. Really enjoy Comma AI as a product on the highway and some in town. That be

To be fair any app will crash the last Intel macs. They're probably one of the slowest computers in existence. You have to run fan control at full blast for it to even be usable.

They still do. It's literally insane. Most will prescribe oral for everything even if it's just a cut. Not only will they give antibiotics they won't even tell someone to take a probiotic during treatment. Most doctors I&

Broke my finger and did the whole CD thing to. I accidentally laughed on the phone when they told me what I had to do. Felt a little bad. I had to drive to the urgent care to get the CD and then drive it to the orthopedic specialist days

The 10 years number is out of date. I think the UK was going to start recommending every 30 years. They give tetanus shots out like they're candy over here in US, even when it's common knowledge that it does nothing after the fa

Autopilot is just adaptive cruise control which most cars have now a days (depending on trim level). Do they mean full self driving?

The problem is you're looking at a single input box. Typically those would be defined as an object and have a prop passed in to configure colors and such. You're typically using it with a frontend framework or web components. I

Same, but if you're staring at an editor all day it has to look good. Atom did and still looks way better than VScode. VScode looks like a Microsoft product. You can also customize Atom easier than VsCode. Why even build on web tech

That's just not true. That's just something EV owners say to themselves to justify purchase. I've seen a bunch of these longer drives on Youtube. They try to say, hey you can stop here and get lunch or wait 30 minutes and

This is a common thing in the Metalcore scene at least around 2005 - 2010. All That Remains, Shadows Fall, Killswitch Engage, etc. It's still pretty common though. Very heavy music followed by super melodic choruses. Some songs eve

They're only complex because developers want to make them complex. It's not a demand from the user.
