“rules of hooks” linting alone prevents a ton of bugs in your average React codebase and TS will provide no help there

I mean that’s fair enough, it’s his framework he can do what he wants. But the last two places I’ve used rails it was being used as backend only. I suspect that’s a very standard way to use rails these days and no amount of DHH telling me i

Seems like a cool project. I really like rails and for projects where you only want to use it as an API this seems great. Feels like DHH has been so obsessed with killing JavaScript recently that rails has lost its way a bit.

Irish people are not native to Dublin either, but somehow it’s still our capital and not full of Danish people

And all the while you’re figuring out how to compromise nobody is dying. Eventually, people figure something out and move on with their lives, because most people have no desire to spend their life in conflict.

Many times the thought “what if we just shipped the database to the client” has crossed my mind in large multi tenant apps where individual datasets were relatively small. I’ve never gone far with it as it seems sufficiently outside the nor

Is it worth killing people over? Or instead of behaving like chimps could we just figure it out by talking?

CO2 emissions have been exported from west to east, they still haven’t come down one bit and the rate of growth has barely deflected despite 20+ years of concerted effort.

I think software engineering encompasses a lot more than implementing algorithms. It’s a very different practice to computer science, which is probably what Knuth would call himself these days.

I feel a token sum for a person like that would likely be life changing money for most people.

It’s also a thing that I know for sure happens in families and gets swept under the rug. The trauma it causes is deep and complex and I don’t think as a society we have any idea how often it happens. My bet is it’s far more common than we k

Yeah I find myself using g! a fair bit on DDG, particularly for things I’m going to spend money on. I search Google maps all the time too. (Restaurants, personal services, tradespeople etc)

I haven’t seen an AI tool that can take a Figma mock up and some fuzzy requirements and turn that into real code in an existing codebase unaided by humans. Given what I’ve seen of current AI tools that still seems a long way away.

Bans on state subsidies are a core principle that enables the EU single market. Otherwise the market could easily be distorted by state aid. However it’s far from simple in practice and is something the member states have been arguing about

I think it’s also worth considering what level of meat eating would be sustainable if we extrapolated out to everyone on earth doing it. I think we’re extremely fortunate that vegetarianism is so common in India

In fairness it has been dropping, eg https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-58831636 Here’s hoping a tipping point is reached soon

I don’t since I really only know about what happens in the west. Here most people seem to eat meat 2-3 times a day, that seems far too frequent to be sustainable. Especially if you consider it immoral to live a lifestyle that couldn’t reali

Based on reading that article I think his position is still that we should be eating far less meat than we currently are.
