True and I like GraphQL but in many cases your UI needs data in a way that isn't available on your existing endpoints. Ex: summary data / aggregations for reports or analytics. Or simple things like fullName on a user entity, a di

Have not tried it yet but curious thanks for the info. I kind of just shifted into Vue and then React after Angular 1. Most of my team has never used Angular and the components available for React are so nice I'm a little hesitant to i

I have an Angular 1 app I built in 2015 that's still in use today. Went back to it and it was refreshing in so many ways. A lot of people really hated it but it's opinions and structure helped promote a more maintainable codebase.

Could just have drugs be legal for those of age if they do them in private spaces. 1) Then you wouldn't have shady operations and drug cartels producing and selling drugs and the illegality, by nature, supporting said cartels 2) Jails

That's crazy and that city is doomed. My in-laws spend more than that but their home is worth more. They've owned it free and clear for like 20 years but they are getting out this year. Their city used to be full of families, much

I disagree. The local budget shouldn't change much from year to year, but when values go up, they are quick to reassess high on, many times, artificially inflated values. When values go down, then they aren't too quick to reassess

Starlink took govt funds and is obligated to deliver 100/20 at a minimum. I own 2 starlinks at different locations and I can tell you 1 of those locations is consistently MUCH under that. That being said, I am pleased with starlink at

I wouldn't say it's a capitalism problem but more of the erosion of a free market. Anything that is counter to a free market rewards unethical behaviors. But politicians don't need to be bought. It's just what has been t

That will probably change over time as Russia becomes more and more isolated from the world. I'm sure the oligarchs are pissed at yacht seizures and banking discomfort too but so what? This is a valid tactic since they didn't atta

Product sells itself outside of enterprise though. I'm just saying that it is possible to have a product that sells itself, and reaches great success without having to have salespeople. Maybe Word and Excel aren't the best example

Nobody cares about convincing YOU; you made up your mind a long time ago and could care less about all the nice things in PHP 8, the performance improvements and the massive ecosystem and huge parts of the web still driven by PHP.

I've been doing Cheers for a long time too. Nice to see it towards the top. I prefer a more casual friendly tone and I'm pretty sure I started using it after seeing someone from the UK sign off all emails like that. So cheers!
