There is already a PR on the way to fix the performance regression with what Jest s doing https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/49950 Note we also ship a test runner ourselves pretty recently and it may suit yo

New contributors often have the opposite problem where after an initial contribution they're looking for areas to get involved with and time with a maintainer is valued. Usually the missing part is maintainers willing to do this. (Unle

The linux kernel isn't a reward and while I empathize with the OP I would absolutely prefer a better solution to maintain than one from the community. So the maintainer was well within their rights. That said, it's so easy to just

They have an excellent LLM called Claude which is quite competitive with OpenAI offerings and has long context windows. Other than OpenAI’s models they have been able to deliver the best results in projects I worked on and sometimes they ou

If you could easily spin up hundreds of thousands of threads you wouldn't need any of those frameworks, callbacks or userland threads. You could use the OS level abstraction and not have your language/framework implement its own

ChatGPT but instead of learning from the internet and then producing text, learning from the internet + < your additional information > and then producing text. It's an announcement about the availability of a feature to do that.

My guess is that it makes it easier to work on large files which is common without downloading the whole file and it makes CoPilot related efforts much easier. I work on Excel but not this feature and am happy to ask around if people are i

Hi I work on Excel, can you write a summary of why that's important to you and send it to bgruenbaum@microsoft.com ? I'll get it in front of a PM. Alternatively PMs read all the feedback sent via the feedback UI on Excel web and d

It's almost too good of a prediction since XAML is from 2008 and this article is from 2006 :) (To be clear it means the article is likely _not_ from 2006 but from later like 2008-2010 since it mentions XAML)

You know, I suspect most people reading this weren't around for the "XML everything!" era and don't get the joke. They legitimately think it's a post about an experimental markup language.

We're very much stopping "thought pollution" all the time, we're not too great at it but the equivalent to someone forcing sound on you is someone forcing thoughts on you. We have laws and automatic tools (again, not gre

How is enforcing the law to not make loud noises that make everyone else's life around you worse a bad thing? What justifies someone suffering from PTSD, with a sleeping baby in their home or just enjoying life being put through noise

Amazing, it's so great to see this done and I wish sound pollution was taken nearly as seriously where I live. Another cool thing is when I visited Japan and I learned a lot of the tools and drills used in renovations have more quiet&#

It probably does STUN but not TURN and relies on the actual data going through P2P, that's what most services that are free do and for a lot of orgs/cases it works pretty well.

Exactly, the boilerplate overhead isn't worth it when 95% of times you don't have anything meaningful to do with the exception but let it propagate.

Branching is an overstatement. SourceDepot didn't _really_ do branching. You had patches you'd float with "changelists" on top of enlistments. Each part large enough in thhe org (for example Excel or Word) gets a "b
