This may sound insensitive, but accessibility isn't usually the #1 concern when developing new projects. It is usually tacked on later in an update because it isn't a core feature and it affects only a small subset of users. Rath

"Just compromise your design", surprisingly, isn't a one size fits all solution. Especially when you can implement things yourself. Yes, it's harder than you think, but sometimes it needs to be done.

I am in a similar situation having a lot of working experience but only in a specific domain (web), and no formal CS education. I only used pointers in one specific context, while working for about 3 months on a Go codebase. I was able to

An incredibly unrare case happens all the time in my work: array[length - 1], or variations of this. Anything involving the last element of the array, and often iterating through the whole array will use something similar at some point.

I'd rather not warp my whole project around a typing system if I don't need to. I also might not be the owner of every API I need to consume... I think TS is great in certain cases- I love being able to get intellisense info from

Somebody I know (cough) starts torrent downloads in sequential order after downloading the first and last chunk, and then opens the file in VLC while it is downloading. Works amazingly well for watching something front to back if your downl

If you reverse search the image it is on a lot of other sites so I'm guessing they did not make it.

This is not true. If you go to Japan you will see an army of extremely drunk salarymen every night, and statistically Japanese people do consume a ton of alcohol compared to most western countries.

I remember going from my small "t9" style flip phone button texting to my first touchscreen texting and thinking it was a huge downgrade- I had internalized my keypad well and could easily text one handed under a desk or in my poc

Fun idea. Needs a sort by time, and a link to the context. "I predict this will turn into a debacle for Apple." What will? I pushed the button about 10 times and only saw one that was even partially understandable without contex

I work with GIFs sometimes still on production sites. I know Webm and other formats might be heavily recommended, but there are a ton of issues currently in the browser ecosystem with videos and autoplay rules (looking at iOS specifically a

I don't find effectively forcing Safari on users to be a good thing. Even if it takes some market share away from Chrome, it just makes a new platform specific monopoly, and arguably a worse one with less pressure to change. As a web

I always find it boggling that apple can require all browsers use webkit on ios... it seems so similar to some of the MS stuff you mention.

You might need ISR (incremental static regeneration). IIRC there are a couple standard SSG frameworks that support something like it. Usually only worth investing in if you are operating at a large enough content scale though.

I wonder if this drives a schism in Google's Chrome implementation of W3C recommendations, given Google's objections to the spec. I feel like they already have shown a willingness to diverge from the specs and do what they feel i

Three.js is a 3d graphics library, not a game engine. You can use it to render your game but it doesn't bring the same things as Unity or Babylon. I have often worked directly with an html canvas and some javascript to make 2d web gam

Kind of fun the first time, but I think I prefer a normal crossword. Seems like the only way to progress is to pick an unfinished word and then do tons of guesses back to back of all the possibilities until one turns green, which starts to

In my anecdotal experience, lichess has a smaller playerbase and it's most noticeable in the middle elo where certain lines or trends end up very popular in the lichess community and get overplayed. Whereas on chess.com I am more like

Chess.com has plenty of value, it just isn't as free or open as lichess. Cheds.com supports more game modes / variations (bughouse and puzzle rush are two favorites!), better social features, built in lessons and lectures you can

Go is the most beautiful game. Chess is the dominant game where I live, and it is fun to play quick blitz games and look for tactics, but the feeling is nothing like a game of Go. As far as early decisions, one of the most important in Go
