Few things unlock my late 90's programming nostalgia like hearing "CodeWarrior". "Eiffel" is a close second. Kylix is also on that list.

Adobe Photoshop? That was written in Pascal.

I notice you're mentioning: "We support Next.js frontends" and "Idiomatic Next.js APIs". What is it about your product that is NextJS specific? Can someone who has no interest in using NextJS still use your product?

In the case of the Challenger accident, the actual orbiter wasn't the problem. The seals on the solid rocket boosters were. That said, I don't know who was responsible for their design/manufacture.

Kafka isn't a message queue. If someone told you that it was, they were wrong. It's an event/stream processor.

I consider that zone to be a new "sweet spot". A new generation of "web devs" can circle around a tool like this. Our current in-house tool is a drag and drop editor that allows slices of content to be stacked. Each of t

Somehow, all the way up into the Snow Leopard days, they seemed like they still exposed enough of the goodies for the "fancy" folk.

It's frustrating at best. On any tiling WM on Linux, I can hit Meta+<#> and be taken to that workspace. On macOS, the moment I fullscreen an app, it's taken out of that flow. So for so many years, I've had my terminal f

Show them a Quentin Tarantino film? ...or any film for that matter where the main characters seem so "cool, unfazed and untouchable". To a young (mostly male) mind, that's the ultimate goal; to be in charge. For most beginnin

I've had 50/50. These days I'm fairly okay with just taking the Macbook Pro. I did have one instance where I got one my first week and used my Dell XPS with Linux the entire 10 months I was at the place. I returned the Macboo

They had Core. Base is their new attempt at sort of a "standard" lib. Not all OCaml-ers use JS libs though. There are some Batteries users out there. When I do Advent of Code, I almost always try to do it with OCaml's built i

I have to disagree. I'm on record here lamenting Go. I've never really enjoyed writing it. When I've had to use it, I've used it. Lately though, I've found a lot more pleasure. And much of that comes from the fact t

I've built POC apps with both this and Elysia recently. Elysia is really cool, it has a bit of its own ecosystem. Eden Treaty for example, is the way it handles backend to frontend type-safety. Hono on the other hand, seems like such a

This definitely kills the low-intent watcher. Twitch sends me daily emails to hop on and watch streamers that I follow. Every once in awhile, I'm not busy so I click the link, "Sure I'll watch that person write OCaml..."

You can, and that is effectively doing something similar to putting a style tag in the head of your document. It'll block until the styles are parsed and applied. If you have a ton of styles, your Lighthouse score will suffer because y

Unfortunately, it's not likely to help with FOUC. Flash of unstyled content happens when CSS isn't parsed and applied before the DOM is loaded and displayed. Even if one applies classes directly to DOM elements, if the stylesheet

You have basically found the Reddit /r/technology contingency. Most stories I see there are laughing at a single man's failures. There's just a lot of hate. I wanted a Tesla because other friends and family let me ride i

There are only 39 licensed cab drivers in the city (as opposed to 1900 drivers 10 years ago). The sudden crash bang will be interesting as ride-sharing has become such a part of city life. I'm not familiar with what wage Uber currently

I miss Mod + {1..n} when using macOS!! I know they do allow workspace switching via keyboard shortcuts. But the minute you full screen an app, that breaks. Full screened apps are taken out of the desktop workflow. So even though a three-fin

I haven't used magit in so many years. Wow...I don't have emacs installed on this machine! (I still keep my configs in my dotfiles though)

I haven't. I've only heard of it. For a very short period of time I tried to get into LazyGit running in my Vim terminal. I just couldn't make the workflow work for me. You know how it is when it gets into muscle memory, and

I've been a vim user for so long it doesn't even make sense to do the math to give a year. Around 2013, my buddy at work and I switched to Emacs just to try something different. We only lasted a few months. One thing that I took a

While I had a friend who had a 128, we never thought to boot up that CP/M disk on his shelf. I had a Apple ][+ with a Z80 daughter card, and a Pascal compiler... so I would have been interested if I had only known (I was 12 and not rea

They literally left comments in their code saying, "we should crash here if using DR-DOS". Digital Research had a compatible but different DOS implementation at the time.

Remix is _just_ a really nice request handler. That means you can bring your own server (instead of getting locked into some specific implementation). There's a lot of benefit to the Remix team's "Use the platform" mantr

I'm ecstatic to see this project is still alive. As a user of the Video Toaster 4000, I barely had a real understanding of the Amiga platform. (Every once in awhile we'd go back to the Workbench to launch Deluxe Paint, AmiPro, etc

Perhaps you should clarify what "stolen" means. Am I to assume that every piece of land has an "original owner"? Who is that?

When one makes an agreement that if I set certain goals, and I achieve said goals, I will be compensated a certain amount. If I choose to buy land, goods, services, the seller chooses the "value". If I agree on the value, I have f

As someone who has worked extremely hard to acquire assets great than 15 million, who do you suggest has the authority to come and take some of it away from me. And what will they do with the resources they confiscate?
