Think it’ll be up to the query author to decide what’s most expressive. Given it’s adding the pipe operator you can always only add it to the part of the query where it makes sense. A nice sql linter for legibility could be great for this.

+1 I do find common table expressions (eg with clause) lets me express what I want way easier. Probably because it makes it easy to express a bunch of operators that are then pipelined…

Yes we can call it sql. Language syntax changes all the time. Their point is that sql syntax is a mess and can be cleaned up.

That's what I meant. My experience is that if I link notes in obsidian I can't read it in any other text editor. And the opposite. Most recently I tested this with obsidian, ia writer, obsidian.nvim, fsnotes, and a few others I fo

How do you handle attachments? In particular, if you attach a file to a note in obsidian then no other program can link to the right attachment, right?

yikes. any time I'm asked to use a sandbox I ask if I can copy/paste to my own editor and share the screen. Otherwise I'm easily 4-5 slower and can't think as clearly because of errant keystrokes.

You just need to rewrite the dev tools in rust! Joking aside, modern fast tools like bun can make this type of interview way more viable. I once conducted this type of interview where the candidate had to install node on their windows lapto

That’s odd. Most interviews I’ve had, on both sides of the table, had basically an indefinite amount of time for questions.

Yes: One project I worked on was a BI tool with a fair amount of complex state. Before we introduced react we were using backbone, event listeners, and managing dom state ourselves. With react we made it declarative, which simplified things

Agree, react is way too bloated right now. The original idea and first versions were great.

No, anecdotes are data. You can't just ignore customers and claim their experience isn't hard data. One of my pet peeves is engineers making excuses for incompetence.

No. From now on all competition will only be determined by the outcome of a Monte Carlo simulation. We don’t need to run the race.

This is a bit sad and disappointing. Writing good code is not impossible. Or even difficult. It just requires engineers to hold themselves to a higher standard.

The point was that unless an engineer has practiced implementing designs exactly, they often miss the details and don’t _see_ the details they’ve missed. I say this as someone who used to not see the details, and then worked at a company wh

You're arguing with yourself. "Pixel perfect" doesn't mean what you think it does. > Pixel perfect is a design approach that aims to achieve a precise and consistent look for a design, down to the pixel level. https:

It's really not a matter of taste though. This dismissive attitude of good design is part of the problem.

If you do bring it in house look for very senior folks, ideally ex-founders who’ve built a product from scratch. You want someone who can help figure out requirements, feasibility, and write code. Pragmatic engineers are always the best. ha

Care and craft. A lot of software engineers think that “done” means functional. And not “feels right”. That and unless a software engineer has specifically practiced implementing pixel perfect designs from a great designer, then they don’t
