I didn’t mean to imply that. In fact we use eslint + prettier where I work.

Interesting, yeah, that’s definitely missing. ESLint has rules for ordering, feels like it’d be a relatively simple addition to prettier.

One place where nesting makes things difficult is in error handling. If at each potential error point you best one level, you quickly find yourself deeply nested. I find the pattern of exiting early and having the “happy path” running to th

I feel like Prettier does a really good job with JavaScript. What situations have you found where automated formatting doesn’t suffice or has these limits?

I made the explicit choice to avoid the COBOL trajectory in 2001 when I graduated from college. At the time the place I graduated from was working hard to graduate people with skills for the local industry (which was cobol, jcl, rpgIII, et

I use TripIt a lot (manually forwarding emails). I don’t trust them with my email credentials. :-) I do love the service. Their website design feels aged and worn, but the functionality is great. I love trying out confirmation emails fro

I’ve taken to using shipping depots for amazon shipments. There’s a 7-Eleven just down my street that I can ship things too and pick them up at my convenience. It’s easier than missing the delivery guy and dealing with redelivery, or wors

GitHub or just git? I thought just the latter.

Somewhat tangential to the topic but one really cool project related to Fuchsia is the Xi text editor project written in Rust. The author (Raph Levine) has a very interesting series of posts on data structures and algorithms used in the edi

I wonder if fresh eyes don’t see the “stigma” of a duct tape approach; rather seeing a good-enough solution for now that’ll work. Instead of agonizing over a better way to do it, they implement and get on with it. I think more senior engin

Nice work!! I just noticed but there’s an unfortunate naming collision in this space. “Remark” mentioned in the article is a presentation generator [1]. The name also refers to a very awesome, pluggable framework for processing markdown te

Equating “fair use” of a website to pirating software is a stretch. In the first case the method of access is at issue (not whether you can or not). In the second the company has not given you any _legal_ right to access. I don’t see how af

It’s not identical but this sounds like direct competition. I’ve read other quotes from Jim Walmsley about the mental competition in an ultramarathon. > “You shouldn’t let others bully you on the course and make you do something you aren

Well, for initial time to interactive there’s a definite correlation with conversion rates in ecommerce. I would assume (not confirmed) that the correlation continues through the purchase process as performance goes down. Investing in perfo

We don’t have algorithm problems at our coding interview but they are relatively simple problems. You’d be surprised how a simple problem _does_ filter candidates that can “bluff” their way up to an actual co-sign interview. In my limited e

I don’t know what nationality that name is from but it might not be pronounced the same as the horrible act you’re thinking of. English may also be a second language in which case he may not be familiar with the negative association.

I agree to an extent, but any modern transpired should also emit source maps which should shield most people from needing to look st or understand the "low level" generated code.

Looks like the free lunch is over already. It's still the 19th where I am and all I see is a "subscribe" overlay.

Was listening to a podcast with one of the first Atom authors (Nathan Sobo) and he mentioned that all new code is in ES6 these days. The codebase is pretty big. They're doing a convert-on-touch approach he said. https://itun

I agree that they can be but based on my experiences, git or Github do not mean code reviews even if pull requests are used.

They have done something native...for many, many years. It's called Visual Studio. VSCode has found a place in my workflow now and I don't care what language or platform they've used. It's proven to be more full-feature
