It does sound and look like it (also the HN submission text...). I hope I'm not insulting s/1bpp/arbesman here as a person with genuine passion. But to me, the promises "LLMs can prototype your ideas quickly", &quot

You think people only breathe because their "functional families" remind them of it? Strange, shallow hyperbole. Social media is causing widespread mental health crises, has killed democratic discourse and regarding the "func

What .editorconfig has in common with CLAUDE.md and similar files, is that they should be shared among the team. Individual guidelines can live in a dot-prefixed subdirectory or the users $HOME. This is what they already provide. So it&#x27

I'd suggest "Caveat". The problem While an article lends a headline more weight, in incomplete phrases consisting solely of a substantive, "The" is a superfluous rhetorical device. "The Exorcist" could j

I know this is about addictive social media feeds as a whole, but I'd like to think a law is being passed to "endanger", no, better outright ban infinite scrolling. Call it the "pagination law" and combine it with b

Treating medical care like this, similar to a racketeering scheme, should not be a thing anywhere. Instead of punishing people for seeking medical care (or plainly requiring it), it would be preferable to have a robust protocol for rejectin

There was an HN comment pointing out this exact fact in some Anthropic thread recently, that agents are not suitable for indeterminate questions that would better fit a chatbot. I couldn't bother to find it yesterday, but I think this

As a Western German myself (who doesn't vote AfD), I'm inclined to agree. Division and looking down on people, especially using attributes like "braindead", is arrogant and also just adds to the political capital of the

The whole premise of a "giant secure open source C codebase" seems questionable Because code review is sometimes not much different from an idealized version of the halting problem, where you would have access to a formalized vers

Or using it correctly... depends on what your system is, or more accurately, your policy on reviewing or quickly merging PRs with "Draft" status. As long as it's taken as an indicator for WIP, it works. It just doesn't w

undefined is not less absurd because there are parts of the standard that allow you to differentiate between undefined and a non-initialized value. Of course you shouldn't do that, but I once encountered a library that behaved

If this is true, it really would be impressive.

I intentionally corrected it, because vanilla JS arrays used to behave like this in some contexts, but I'm not even sure about which ones still. Since the "Array" is a reference to the prototype, I think it might be outdated

Thanks for the factual clarification. This is so important when everyone already has their trigger finger on politics. Not meaning that politics are irrelevant here, see sister comment by jobim. But it's impossible to form a nuanced op

I do it this way, but this led to people asking me in reviews why I use NULL^^ My explanation was that it signals intent to me, and is different from some property not being part of the expected object shape or not having been initialized b

Thanks a lot! I'll give this a try next time I feel like coding for a hobby. I've tried exactly this "project idea" in a half-assed way some time ago with next.js, Postgres and Prisma before I was out of free-time-in-fro

Previously submitted here a couple of times, last one is 2 years ago. So I thought, why not re-submit it. Relevance is probably timeless, although it's a neologism that doesn't present a particularly new idea.

Good point. Since I've never owned a Chromebook, I didn't even know that they are capable of installing arbitrary Android apps.

To be fair there were a couple of disasters, such as [object Array] and undefined. Feels like the world is hanging on a single thread by now.

It's a refusal to engage with the reported information, not an argument. Note that the general sentiment on HN when it comes to other topics is that every slight simplification in reporting on science is unforgivable, Gell-Mann-amnesia
