Recently switched from Java/Spring to C# and it’s quite refreshing. Microsoft has done a great job with the C# ecosystem.

I do agree that it makes sense to make the cage look beautiful. It will convey to future generations this is something we valued based on its intricate design. Much like we find find and recover intricate artworks from our past. > Few if

I’m not a game developer. What I would like to know is how does porting the code that draws the UIs and perhaps the game work? For example on PC one might use WinForms and DirectX so is this just a matter of writing wrappers to all your Dir

I find that O'Reilly Online (use to be called Safari Books Online) is a great value. It’s a subscription instead of one time. But gives you access to their comprehensive technical library.

I got this same idea a few years ago. Glad to see you implemented it! I was working a few Java projects in IntelliJ. The IDE default view is based on Java modules and packages. Sometimes I find those hierarchies are not great for program un

Disagree. Python has is caveats as well. Learning architectural patterns is as important as control flow. I taught Java to beginners for a few summers in college and Java syntax was never a problem. You can code everything in one function i

This is a tool for beginners. Formatting code on save might cause confusion. IMO professionally format on save sounds good if your expecting it. For a beginner they should learn the syntax and concepts. Formatting can be taught later.

I learned Java with this IDE and thought the class diagram and the color coded blocks helped a lot. I wish VS Code has a similar setup for real projects. I’ve worked in code based where a real time class diagram would of been super helpful.

So far my career has been secured by the small details, edge cases and the field of scientific computing. I think these tools will not work well for the latter. But I’m still planning my career change. Not because of AI. If the level of com

I’ve been very pleased with the quality of JetBrains products. My dev team has recently switched to VS Code and to get the same level of functionally we need several packages all in various states of maturity and the UX is no where close. I

Was not aware of Fire [1]. Looks like a nice library to quickly create CLIs. I wonder how this compares to Typer, cliff, cement, and click. [1] https://google.github.io/python-fire/guide/

We shall see. My hope is eSIM is as seamless and bs free as a physical sim. The Pro Max 14 will be my first eSIM phone.

My anecdotal .2¢ from a developer perspective: Jira is difficult to search and gives teams too much flexibility on organization. The latter makes it difficult when going from one team to the other. Someone needs to champion documenting. Esp

Neat idea. I think a thermal printed label will be more durable. Instead of cutting the box to make it flush could it be instead put in a plastic pouch- like the one used for customs documents? What is the durability of an eInk screen? If i

IT has nothing to do with carriers supporting eSIM or not. With eSIM comes activation processes where carriers can make pricing decisions. Have an iPhone or coming from the US? There's a different higher price for you. Today you can bu

It doesn’t surprise me Delta and the major carriers are cleaning. I don’t fly low cost carriers for this and many other reasons. I encourage others to do the same. The consumer has the power to vote with their wallet.

This article glosses over the biggest (anti consumer) change to iPhone. The loss of the physical SIM card slot. The SIM card balanced the power between phone company and consumer. Allowing the consumer to switch carriers at will. eSIM will

My wishlist: We need a way to configure an ordered list of indexes pip searches for packages. —extra-index-url or using a proxy index is not the solution. Also namespaces and not based on a domain. So for example: pip install apache:parquet
