The last comprehensive study I read indicates that they improve internal and external code quality by 76% and 88% respectively while reducing productivity some[1]. If you have papers that indicate your claim I'd be interested in readin

No maven central? I imagine it would be pretty large, too.

This. It's why vagrant was popular before the container revolution. The killer app of Docker isn't the container, it's the depth and uniformity of the UX surrounding the container system. When that is broken by something on t

Gatekeeping is part of running a project -- you have the right to refuse the contributions for any reason you'd like. They, likewise, have the right to fork your project and run a new one how they see fit. Do it too much though, and yo

When consumer software still came on physical media, nearly everything advertised the amount of ram and minimum system and cpu requirements necessary to run the software. That just isn't the case nowadays, so you don't know there

Copying isn't free though. Every front-end application built on Electron or running in a container that duplicates half of the OS stack burns more memory on my computer, forcing earlier upgrades of either the entire machine or RAM with

Browsers have been grown, not designed. The competitive pressures exuded on browsers to render ill-specified things and hacks has resulted in something essentially where what it does is what it does. That's the case with a lot of softw

The only thing I prefer the mac M3 PRO (work), hardware wise, to my MSI w/4060 and 64GB ram, is the battery life. Everything runs slower on my mac. There are some niceties (the color filter for my color-blindness, for example, and the

Seems a lot like https://www.unison-lang.org/ especially the versioned functions as the package manager. Can anyone expand on the differences between the projects (beyond the license)?

How does UBI avoid encouraging excessive inflation on basic goods? If there are more people to afford them, then surely demand will rise and supply will decrease, driving prices up until UBI must rise to compensate.

Testcontainers can use docker-compose: https://java.testcontainers.org/modules/docker_compose/ . Really, you use testcontainers so that you can manage everything for your test with a single build command, instead o

by jackcviers3 3y ago
Testcontainers integrates with docker-compose [1]. Now you can run your tests through a single build-tool task without having to run something else and your build. You can even run separate compose files for just the parts your test touches

There are metrics for complexity that nobody who writes these articles ever mentions: Halstead complexity [1], LCOM4 [2], cyclomatic complexity [3] (and others) that directly measure how complex a given piece of code is. Halstead complexity

Point free when done with _andThen_ instead of _compose_ isn't that much different from reading basic statement oriented programs delimited by semicolons: ( f andThen g )(x) vs a = f(x); g(a); _andThen

It's not that scary. If a project everyone depends on is broken and unmaintained, someone else will manufacture a replacement fairly quickly and people will vote with their feet. NGINX is the de facto standard today, but I can remember

Yep. Can't read readmes from the emacs eww browser anymore or browse individual code listings. This is ridiculous. I get it for their code editor, but it should at least SHOW the code and line numbers and allow text search via form sub

This is more like insurance. If you move to the mountains, you have to pay for special fire insurance because mountains have forest fires. The U.S. is an extremely productive economy with at least one enormous cyclical natural catastrophe a

The advantage, if the abstraction is wrong, of using the abstraction is that you can use tool automation too look up all the uses of the abstraction and replace them with a new one at need without needing to memorize the codebase. Hodgepod
