Sometımes you see people wrıte lıke thıs or THİS when they are unused to the Turkish keyboard and it creates a lot of problems for some software, even crashes (to upper and back to lower is not the same word!).

I immigrated to Germany from Turkey and I witness through the media that sometimes people in some parts of the US behave very similar to the ones in Istanbul, with all the bad and good things associated with it. I've grown up being e

I'm currently mentoring some junior devs and perhaps I was thinking about them when answering. You are absolutely correct on that.

What does "hx-get" do? Does it replace the HTML from that url? Why is it on a div, does it happen on load or does it wait for an event? It's a study on its own: https://htmx.org/reference/ Oh, apparently

I've been using htmx since the intercooler days, but I'm of the opinion that just using Next.js and treating React like simple HTML is much easier for starters. Or Alpine, but not htmx. Learning all those attributes (30, not count

It's not a drop in the bucket if you are living somewhere close, is the point, if I understood correctly.

Unfortunately I don't, it should be however easy to start by cloning and running meteor (npm i -g meteor, to install) in the directory. At least that was the case 2 years ago, not sure if it's still working.

Too long ago, I had written a lunch-planner as a joke to mock how much time we were losing by discussing what to eat at the office (and it even was used in a non-sarcastic way, to my own amazement), and I used meteor because it just worked.

Having lived in big (and big-ish) cities all my life, it's always a big amusement watching at Youtube the videos of people in the suburbs trying (and failing) to out-smart these intelligent burglars :)

That increases your finesse, but the creativity boost usually comes from being able to get bored.

If that is not the case, why limit browser choice? Most will surely keep using it if it's rock solid. I never used Safari as my main browser nor I hate it as a developer. I'm just talking about the argument here.

Yeah, the thing is, if you do forget to align things, which is a thing if your eyes are not the sharpest, weird things can happen, especially when you are writing scripts as if there's no tomorrow. Those experiments usually end up bein

It depends, I like using vim on a remote computer and use IntelliJ locally. It usually breaks when I'm trying to refactor, copying and pasting etc.

I want to use Python more often but having to care about significant white space is a much bigger downer for me than the async being a "dumpster fire" and I also don't think async in Python is so bad. I'm saying this as

So you are suggesting to implement more stuff with scripting (otherwise that would be horrible to use with page reloads in between, no?). Why go all the trouble when HTML can store all the semantics just fine? I also use Confluence via plai

The web has HTML and parsing/sanitizing it is a solved problem. I fail to see the need to go back to plain text not to be "fighting the web". The world wide web is a free platform where you can publish plain text or HTML, but

I never said anything about text formats though. Go crazy as the input, give me HTML as the output. I can sanitize it any way I want on the server-side anyway.
