First sentence of the article: In software engineering, continuous integration (CI) is the practice of merging all developer working copies to a shared mainline several times a day. Guy didn't do that. His project blew up. He failed th

You stopped at the first sentence? Sheesh... You missed all the context. I read the link and it does indeed explain how his project failed because he wasn't continuously integrating his code in to the main branch. It's not just ab

A truly astounding amount of technical debt. Sometimes the sheer weight of it makes me think I'll never finish this project, ever, and I should just give up right now and go find a new job. What's more is we're about to (

How does avoiding the use of a package manager fix bloat? Or do you mean to say everyone should be writing vanilla JS with zero dependencies?
75.
by nulagrithom 9y ago
Suggestion: also show the number of dependencies and sub-dependencies. That's usually where I run in to bundle-phobia mentality (whether its warranted or not is another discussion).

This is interesting to me because the map reduce has way less cognitive load for me. With map reduce I see the following: - We've got an array - We're going to loop through it and square everything - We're going to take tha

A unique error code will accomplish little. It will serve mostly to bewilder and frustrate you after discovering many users can't (or won't) remember so much as two numbers. What I'm saying is take the unique error code and
