This is the gold standard of CLI tools. Sure, cURL may technically be more capable, but HTTPie is friendier, more memorable, and clearly built with developer UX in mind.

Well, PEP 394 suggested it be this way, so Python is also a bit complicit.

As somebody who only occasionally uses Python, the fact that the default `python` binary on my system resolves to Python 2.x and I need to specify `python3` to invoke 3.x, means I am quite often mistakenly using Python 2 instead of 3. How c

I have the same 15” from late 2008 sitting in storage at home. Surprised you’re still using it! What OS version? Sometimes I like to look at the price of Apple stock in 2008 and wonder how much money I would have today if I had instead boug

Out of curiosity, why do you feel it necessary to use a throwaway? I echo your thoughts entirely and feel strongly enough about them to attribute them to my name. I think we (as a society/industry) need to start publicly having this di

Definitely not the X1 Carbon 7th Gen. While I love my X1C7, it runs Linux horribly. Speakers, microphone, HDMI issues galore.

I agree with this. Honestly, it's super simple assuming you want to convert Markdown files to HTML. You can also leverage 3rd party libraries to do the heavy lifting of: 1) Reading local file tree (the IO/FS module of your $LANGUA

I agree with OP for my own reasons, but you bring up a very good point that I hadn't previously considered, so thanks. I've been working remotely from different parts of south/southeast Asia for almost a year now and my cost

I get why TypeScript is quickly becoming the standard, but the problem with it is that it's still JavaScript, and contains all the warts thereof. If at some point your attention turns to the very real benefits of static typing, why not

In our world of Ship It/Get Shit Done/Move Fast Break Things, code readability doesn't stand a chance. I find there's little allowance for time spent thinking about the poor sucker who has to read my code, lest the sprin

I hope to get here. I've been using DDG since the start of the year, and I'm thinking of switching back to Google. The results for me are off the mark to such a degree that I use the `!g` more times than not. Even if DDG has the r

Admittedly a Mac-to-Linux convert here, but what I like about linux/homebrew is the ability to build the very latest version of the requested package on the day of the release. Distro package managers make living on the bleeding edge m

Great job! You nailed the Sci-Fi aesthetic from 2005.

Dart was better enough, as evidenced by the recent uptick of Typescript. Had it been released in 2019, I could envision a different story.

If you don't mind me adding on this Piotr, other teams have positions open for both Backend and Frontend engineering (my team in particular is looking for the latter). Feel free to shoot me a message too: yashodhan@messagebird.com

Whoever first brings to market a laptop with Linux that "just works" 100% from the moment you press the on button, is poised to make a lot of money. That day will probably never arrive, but it's fun to think about.

Hey! I'm interested in this goal too. Fancy a talk? Email/twitter is in bio.

Be as strong, confident, hard-working, charismatic, and happy as I possibly can be. On a good day, I'm running at about 80% on those attributes.

Exactly. This article typifies premature optimisation. If MongoDB lets you prototype faster, then use it until you have enough paying customers to warrant a refactor.

I've noticed this as well, and as a non-smoker this makes me envious.

Bad-ish? Try horrible. GitHub has raised the bar too high for Gitlab to spout the tired developer rhetoric that UI/UX doesn't matter.

Is there any way to nicely state that you're not interested in equity and prefer cash? I haven't found it. It seems to put off employers who think of equity as an incentive. And I've met some fantastic companies who have done
