The only example that has any traction in my view are web-shops, which claim that time-to-render and time-to-interactivity are critical for customer retention. Surely there are not so many people building e-commerce sites that server compon

I seem to remember that the DOM nodes themselves expose some pretty useful functions. I think it was in the context of detecting edge crossings for a graph router, but you were able to interact with the computed/rendered coordinates in

Python users don’t even believe in enabling cursory type checking, their language design is surpassed even by JavaScript, should it really even be mentioned in a language comparison? It is a tool for ML, nothing else in that language is goo

That is pretty obvious from where it says “Edit:”, what isn’t obvious is how Supply and Demand prevents companies from setting prices arbitrarily. Which is and always was what your comment said.

If you output Zod you've basically solved Typescript, a Zod schema more or less is a Typescript type and can be explicitly made so with the `infer` capability

I don’t see where I reference neurons, care to quote me rather than adding misleading citation looking (1) strings to your text? Indeed, looking towards full compute simulation of a physical system, I reference one of its smallest physical

Oh yeah, you're right, we have 4 * 10^14 more compute than an insectoid brain in real time. Come the fuck off it. This is the same guy who said rational characterizations had left right before waving away the complexity of a trillion a

We’re talking about whether or not humanity has enough compute to simulate a bee brain, how can us having orders of magnitude less transistors than there are atoms in the system we wish to simulate possibly be hand waved away? A single tran

> I disagree that all the computer processors in the world combined don't have enough raw processing power to simulate a single bee brain. That to me is an absurd idea. A bee weighs 100mg. If they are 5% brain, their brain weighs 5m

I’m in agreement with you in that raw compute isn’t really the only missing piece, but I’m not in agreement we have enough compute to fully simulate even simple insect brains

For instance if you wrote a type to extend number to something like range<min,max> - obviously a toy - it would look very similar to what you’ve posted. So I’m struggling to see what the insight from the LLM is. Anytime one needs to i

Ternary chains are pretty common in TS, since it’s the main control flow. Are you a comfortable TS user normally?

Why the bad faith answer? Even a bloated, ad-ridden modern web bundle is tiny compared to native apps. And I'd be happy to hear about an interesting app delivery platform which makes 1s of MBs look absurdly large. I think you and I bot

I often hear this, and to an extent I don't disagree. There is an absurd amount of complexity that goes behind CSS/JS/HTML to make it function how it does. Browsers are true monstrosities. But what alternatives are really lef

I don't think you read the comment you replied to correctly. He praised the article and approach therein, contrasting it to the LLM hype cycle, where effusive praise is met with harsh scorn, both sides often completely forgetting the r

Maybe you have non TS clients, but I moved to tRPC backends and now my consumers are perfectly typed at dev time, combined with pnpm monorepos I’m having a lovely time.

They gave an escape hatch to people who wrote malformed hooks so their build process wouldn't crash, I don't really think that's a meaningful use case. Are directives horrible? Absolutely. Did I encounter any need for this ac
