This article is all controversy with very little substance. Saying software is lower quality now more than ever is pretty insane considering we have been continuously improving it for as long as its existed. The examples cherry picked are h

Thanks for building this! Just recommended it to my team since there’s finally a fairly lightweight Lottie player. I think you should really highlight that actual size of the player is ~16 Kb now (using NextJs) since that was a huge reason

I don’t want to post a specific issue without doxxing myself but you can browse through the open issues on GitHub to find some. Some are years old! I think the more popular languages tend to be better supported so you probably don’t know ab

This isn’t actually true. Prettier does break code in strange circumstances and it can be very difficult to fix. The maintainers have a ton of stress on them and it’s hard to improve it sometimes. It’s very well tested and easy to add cases

Two things hidden from this view: 1. There is absurd motion blur whenever you move your head. This has to be some nausea prevention technique but it is extremely frustrating if you’re trying to look back and forth between screens. No settin

I have no clue why people are so shocked about this. Being able to run arbitrary code makes extensions nearly impossible to audit. There are so many malicious extensions out there, surely there has to be some checks on them. How else would

Wow that’s absurdly intimidating to wrap my head around. I do agree that types from libraries are pretty ugly but that’s just a result of complexity and sometimes poor API design. This would probably make it 10x worse by increasing complexi

It seems to me that “if it can be changed to 100% attestation rate in the future, it will be done” is a slippery slope argument and assuming bad faith on behalf of the proposal writer. I think if it were changed to be 100% then it would be

Amazingly clever that they have hold backs! Make sure to read this before going along with the anti WEI train > WEI prevents ecosystem lock-in through hold-backs > We had proposed a hold-back to prevent lock-in at the platform level.

Very controversial take but I think this benefits the vast majority of users by allowing them to bypass captchas. I’m assuming that people would use this API to avoid showing real users captchas, not completely prevent them from browsing th

If you’re a 10x engineer, work at 33% capacity and then advertise like you’re trying very hard. That way when you are in a crunch it looks like you’re putting in superhuman levels of effort but really you’re just working 80%. If you don’t d

It’s one layer of mitigation that makes some users very happy. Potentially there should be some kind of AI detection here instead but people haven’t thought to do that yet. Manual flagging is probably how the user got found but since it’s t

This may be controversial but I think this has the potential to be a brilliant metric because it measures some part of web UX that’s often neglected. It’s time consuming to make every single interaction display some sort of loading message

I don’t understand why this is top comment. Ads on youtube are skippable after a few seconds and you can pay to not watch them. It’s weird to conflate that with some adspam website, which may have a ton of flashy ads and a video. However, m

Insane that this is legal and that professionals can be so easily bought. You would think there would be some kind of legal protection or incentive to not have watchdogs hired by potentially criminal businesses. I’m sure Amazon is at least

There’s two interpretations of this that are possible, one of which is very dangerous: When making styles for dynamic content, CSS should accommodate a decent variety of possible text lengths and image sizes. This is obviously a good thing.

Since I’m actually a top 5 programmer of all time (self decided) I can say with confidence that Carmack is actually a top 50 programmer but no where near the top 10. He didn’t use ternaries nearly enough.

Wikipedia probably wants to support every user of the internet, which means even very old browsers. You can’t rely on relatively new CSS features when supporting browsers that are 10 years out of date. The fact they’re still using JQuery, p
