Everything has a cost. If you had to pick between "write 99% correct code in 1 week" vs "write 100% correct code in 1 year", you probably would pick the former, and just solve the 1% as you go. It's an absurd hypoth

Nice deep dive. On a tangential point: nowadays Turbo Streams are less needed in Rails, because of the way Turbo automatically kicks in by default. And in most (not all) situations, backend doesn't really save much time returning a pie

I think I feel you. However, I think you have conceptually loaded "method" with more meaning. I think a less loaded way to think of the object/method is that the object is the first argument to the method that is called on it

I know it's weird, I'm a long time software guy myself, and would be surprised too if I didn't see this for myself. The thing about us is that our customers are banks. New banks are joining because they already know about us

I work with him at this company. We are still going, just don’t have much of a public facing side, because most of the sales are direct b2b. We’re working on showcasing more of what we do, but it hasn’t been our top priority.

We tried different services like these, they quickly become unappetizing. You end up forcing yourself to microwave a box vs. order something fresh cooked.

I need this for DoorDash desperately. My wife and I trying to figure out what to eat every day is one of the most annoying parts of the day. If anyone has any recommendations, would be much appreciated.

For one, I don't think complexity is determinative of impact. At least I hope not, otherwise my startup ideas are all DOA. For two, Omarchy is becoming more complex as more maintainers come in to write way more automation. You can kind

This might sound bad, but having worked in a few different languages, I find it kind of cute how some parts of Go seem to promote simplicity while others are simply what the authors were used to growing up. Sometimes it frustrates me when I

This is surprisingly on point for any (esp. backend/fullstack) web devs who have terminal and editor (2 separate windows) maximized side by side in MacOS, where it only natively supports 2 maximized windows at a time. I used to have te

I got a curved 5k2k lg display for games, and every time I switch to work monitor (5k regular flat lg), it feels like I'm looking at an old CRT that's bulging out at me. Such a strange sensation. I do like the curved display a lot

I guess the “hard work = gains” sentiment is showing something, but since it’s literally a misnomer on its face, and people take it way too literally, I think it doesn't show what many think it does. I think the problem is that work ch

I was always curious, why would anyone believe that hard work leads to economic gains in the first place? That's like saying "flapping your hands very fast leads to building a house". Nothing about working hard has anything t

Yeah, this does require a certain team culture building effort. Just starting cold without any expectation-setting might not be received well. One "rule" I try to meta-promote is — working code is the first step, and a great found

Yeah, not easy, but it helps to build some rapport first, so people learn what you’re after. The way I tend to do that is by leaving a review comment with an example code snippet that makes me understand it better, and a question “what do y

I found this type of approach (where you try to meet subjective readability goals with objective/statistical metrics) to not produce clear code in practice. Instead, I suggest this one weird trick: if your colleagues are confused in co
