Would Altman shine within Microsoft? Seems like raising capital is his main skill set, and theres no need for that now. But from Microsofts point of view this prevents a new competitor from popping up.

It might have been a ”continue where you left off” player that always showed on the main page or something like that. Continuing is never desirable so I always had to waste a click closing that so it wouldnt obscure part of the screen.

I tried that once, but paying changed the ui in some way that I found to be a huge degradation. Dont remember what exactly it was, but now Im using the adblocker again. Just ublock works fine btw, as long as you keep it and its filters up t

Your family is not the intended audience for the code. If the reviewer isn’t either, then they have no business reviewing your code.

Sure, but in those industries the users leave, the company suffers and the executives get fired. VC are attracted to moaty business models where users cant leave.

This only happens when the users are the product or its a marketplace. Most business models dont suffer from shittification. But VCs love investing in the ones that do.

This architecture completely ruins your write performance. Theres a reason double databases, one OLTP and one OLAP, is the norm.

Its also that the longer journey increases the variation in arrival time thus increasing the risk of not making the transfer.

Ive gotten some use out of ChatGPT for system design. I describe my problem, it recommends solutions, I ask follow up questions and add more context etc… Just like I would work with an actual collegue. Then in the end I still have to go to

Theyre already noticably plataeuing when it comes to coding, which similarly requires you to navigate tree structures and plan how to connect existing things together using shortest paths rather than inventing things out of thin air.

If you don't want to publish events from uncommitted transactions you'll have to first store them in a local table and then move them to the queue after the commit. But if all consumers have direct access to the database anyway...

The problem is that it should be the caller that decides which category the error falls within, but most languages forces the callee to choose.

Ive been curious about that book ever since Rich Hickey recommended it but couldnt easily get my hands on a copy and kinda forgot about it. This was a great review; Im going to give it another try.

VS Code is actually pretty good at Typescript though, so I could be wrong about JS.

IntelliJ has much superior code completion even for dynamic languages such as Python and Clojure. I seem to recall having tested Javascript too, but I could be misremembering there as its been a while since I didn't use use Typescript.

Whenever I try to use something other than IntelliJ (generally VS Code) I'm always struck by how awful the code completion and auto-imports are. I really hope we can get a lightweight editor with those two functions working properly. H

Looks like it might be roughly what we need. I’m going to dig a little deeper. Thank you.

Maybe 2-4 hours for a first draft and then 3-4 edits of 15-30 minutes each. Much more if I have to research the topic too.

> dull and rambling voice mail message This is in no way a realistic study. A dull and rambling voice speaking about some random thing not related to you or your work will make people disengage. Doodling presumably keeps people from tota

I think you ought to consider whether you should take notes at all. Notetaking is great for remembering actions that you have comitted to doing, or if you need to spread information to people who didn't participate in a meeting. Manage

I've been investigating their generators for work these last two days, and their java generators produce code that doesn't even compile -- when ran on their own schema examples! Total garbage. OneOf (for the polymorphism aspect of

Seems like there's a lot of similarities between DOD and relational modelling (as in modelling for a RDMBS). I imagine DOD is kinda like doing batch/bulk operations in pure SQL vs using an ORM.

No I only did it that way because I couldn't get it to work with a CNAME file. However, that guide you linked is much more detailed than what I originally read so I'll give it another go. Thank you.

This also isn't thread safe, but that's not a problem if you don't run parallel tests in the same process. Using the same stateless test doubles in all tests also solves the problem. I often find myself wanting stateful test

I think this is a very good point, but I also think good code organization can come a long way in addressing it. In my opinion, a good test suite should contain mostly module level test[1]. You stub out interactions with other modules (if y

Thank you. This warms my heart to hear. However, this is the first thing Ive written outside of isolated reddit comments. But I do have a backlog with a few articles that I have mapped out but havent gotten around to writing yet.

Author here. After posting this to reddit I realized that the original title is wrong, and poorly reflects the actual point I'm trying to make. Dependency injection is not dynamic scoping, but the latter can be used to achieve the form
