Hot take: a lot of usage of GraphQL is terrible and most apps don't need it. For example, I worked at a place where it was a requirement that everything runs through GraphQL. Sure, fine, except then you see that they were making tailor

Agreed. I went through the effort of setting it up back when Synapse was the only option. It was cool and my technical friends had some fun tinkering with it but after a couple of weeks we found we weren't using it as our primary commu

I have Dark Reader and disabled it. It looks like what they posted. It must be a poorly implemented dark mode.

I'm not an embedded software guy so I don't have a use case for this. However, I want to give major credit to the people who made the website. The second thing you see is a reasonably sized chunk of real code. This is what every s

I had a good time trying out Svelte a while back. However, at least at the time, TypeScript support for it was nearly non-existent which makes it a non-starter for me.

Based on this task, I could write a snippet that would beat Copilot every single time.

Not OP but I did the same thing. I build web apps using some combination of TypeScript, C#, F#, HTML, and CSS (or CSS-style languages). I spent about as much time correcting what it wrote as if I had written it myself. As someone else menti

I actually moved to an ergodox _because_ of pain. Since moving to a split ergo board my back doesn't hurt and I've stopped getting tingling in my ulnar nerve. Different situations for different people, I suppose

I could not disagree more. I absolutely love using TypeScript for the libraries that I write and maintain. > There's great documentation and blogs for end-developers but there's very little for library-developers Because there

I'm not sure I agree with your takeaway. It sounds to me like you were searching for optimal paths. Baiting individuals into 1 vs. 1 is more optimal than fighting a crowd. Killing enemies out of aggro range is more optimal is you'

DICOM is a fun format to tinker with. The absolute basics of it are simple enough that I wrote a DICOM viewer in college for a class. All of the extensions mean you can get some really interesting data as well. The various number of attribu

Obviously it's not a single factor. The equation isn't `# of guns / X = # of mass shootings`. However, the equation is likely closer to `# of guns * complex social problems / X = # of mass shootings`

I worked on MVC applications for years. I have now worked on React apps for years. The UI-as-a-function model is an absolute godsend.

Like many people I thought Copilot was neat but ended up uninstalling it because it caused more problems than it solved. Reading the comments here, it seems that most of the people who get value out of it would be better served creating a s

Or it just includes some conveniences. A lot of my projects include a .vscode folder so that anyone who uses VS Code can debug the application right away. If you want to use your own IDE or even just run everything from the terminal, it all

It's a shame that it requires a business email just to try it out. My work doesn't have anything to do with city building but I'd love to use this to create a 3D model of my home town for my own fun.

I don't know that the layperson sees them as interchangeable. Private, to me, merely says that the goal is for this to be for my eyes only. Secure tells me that they've gone to extra steps to ensure that that privacy is upheld. It

The ultra short version of what he is saying is that generics allow you to provide information to the compiler that enables inlining. So instead of doing something like this (pseudo assembly) PUSH x PUSH y CALL compare CMP
