I literally have been there, done that, and bought the t-shirt. There used to be some great Linux t-shirts back in the day but, that bright orange Freshmeat shirt is one I wish I never tossed. I can't even find a pic on Google Images.

Did you see my comment about "yes I could rearch my code but..." The fact that I'm writing in some very specific way to please a linter IS the problem... regardless of whether we tell someone beforehand. If I know I have a de

>"If a linter is required to tell me when I'm writing a bug that is not immediately obvious, that is a failing in the framework to round those edges". I do not want this handled at the framework level though. There are ple

So we have a guy saying that he's receiving calls against Biden's support of Ukraine. Certainly we have something more verifiable than that, right? That insane tweet by Candace Owens, yep. That is the type of thing I'm lookin

I keep hearing this on places like Reddit. I see memes parroting this. But with all the right-wing folks I know, I've yet to hear ONE say they actually think this invasion is a good idea, or that Putin is a good guy. I even visited Tow

This is actually a really cool article. I'm fascinated that we can learn languages this way. Immersion is definitely the avenue I'd seek but, often, that is not possible. The time table the author kept was amazing. One thing caugh

Bad? I don't think I'd use that term. Fragmented? Full of "bike-shedding"? Fanboi-ism? Definitely those things apply. There are some tools that seem to dominate the market currently. And as often is the case, you may for

I don't blame the language for what the community does though. I mean, I've suffered through VBScript. I know how bad a utility/glue language can really be. Netscape did have it running on the server way back in the 90s too.

"Popularity contest" describes the front-end community in a nutshell. I've been in software development since before the web was a big deal. Never have I seen any language have more "high school popularity" style pe

It was never free. The bill was simply footed by investors who believed at some point, a viable product would bring in revenue. Sure, it was free TO YOU, (it still is) but do we really think the network provider, the servers, the administra

You're right. The first machine I installed Linux on wasn't my own. It was a friend's Pentium, and he had partitioned a drive. It was 98/99 before I was regularly trying out distros from Cheapbytes, Linux Mall, etc. My d

By the time I got into installing Linux (1996+), I always seemed to be able to find salvageable pentium machines 166Mhz and above. But, my sister ended up returning my old AMD 486 DX4 120Mhz after they bought a new computer. I threw FreeBSD

Right, but if we're looking for the quickest path, "right click on this page, and select 'Inspect'" and boom. You're there. Certainly one could go to https://replit.com/ and choose from a host

One major benefit here is how approachable this is. One could even simply open Dev Tools on their browser and use the console as a REPL. As someone who installed Scheme/Dr Scheme/Dr Racket long ago, it's nice to say, "yo

Yep, the counter-suit would be the angle I'd hope they'd pursue. "YOU exposed PII, you are in breach... no one 'broke into a system'"... but as others are mentioning in this thread, the article doesn't exp

My take: ABSOLUTELY! 74kb or image data? Probably not. But unzipping, parsing/JITting/running/whatever that large of a payload.... on crappy 3 year old low-memory Android devices... yes. That is going to lag. Not too long ago

Most mornings begin with exercise and cool down. Then scripture and prayer. This morning, I read Hebrews chapter 12 from the New Testament in the Bible. Afterwards, I prayed about some of the things that stuck out to me. I prayed for my fam

...I wish this were true. I'm back writing JavaScript/Typescript. The new build tools are great. Perhaps in the new year I'll convert some of these repos to build with esbuild or swc... or vite.

It's less about forgetfulness and more about convenience. The whole "setup an OTA antenna somewhere in/on your house/attic/roof, wire it up to your tuner, scan for channels, learn what direction to point the antenna

For an enterprise to move to Java 16, a huge amount of code needs to be reviewed and tested. It's not as simple as incrementing a number in 200 pom.xml files. Sure records are pretty cool but Lombok does do a few other things as well.

RedHat seems to be working pretty hard to make that experience better. For a long time, there has been a need to be "somewhere in between". While Eclipse, Netbeans and IntelliJ have been all about the entire Java EE/Applicati

The Map data structure intrigues me as one of the main reasons I'd use a Map in other languages is for the O(1) access time complexity. I like that the footnotes give more insight into how Elixir is implementing these things under the
