I'm not sure if you're serious or not, but while I never liked Drupal (even used to hate it once upon a time), I always liked the pragmatism surrounding it, reaching to the point of saving php code into the mysql database and exec

I have a very vague idea about how consoles work (I mean we're talking about terminals, like, terminal emulators right?), so probably that's why I don't understand how the usage of emojis break one. I use a lot of different O

Coding agent is a category of tools like, say, unit tests. If these days someone attached some random bits about how unit tests helped and how they didn't, everyone would directly agree that it does not help the main point of the artic

It's impossible here, triple impossible there, so still the same price from my perspective.

Trigger-based approach is the only one that really works in my experience. Partition the archive table in a way that makes sense for your data and you're good to go. Some more rules to keep it under control: Partition table has to be a

We all live in our own various small circles, in which many terms get misused. Isomorphic in front end circle means something completely different than any other use, for example. This is how languages evolve. I'm not trying to discoun

Aren't CD players just reading digits? I'm not anywhere close to a hifi expert but it must be all about the DAC, no? Or do you mean the ones with a built-in DAC?

When very important tooling does not have very impressive funding, you get the xkcd 2347 situation very quickly.

That's me! I used to do it with repomix and turned the whole codebase into a giant xml file. Worked really great, and I have a script that just takes the aistudio output and writes all the generated files. But, after using Claude Code

This attitude really tires open source maintainers enormously. They are not allowed to earn money connected to the thing they are giving away for free? I know there may have been some weird stuff going on lately (nginx, redis, etc.) but thi

It seems to me these days, any code I want to write tries to solve problems that LLMs already excel at. Thankfully my job is perhaps just 10% about coding, and I hope people like you still have some coding tasks that cannot be easily solved

You can look at my comment history to see the evidence to how hostile I was to agentic coding. Opus 4.5 completely changed my opinion. This thing jumped into a giant JSF (yes, JSF) codebase and started fixing things with nearly zero guidanc

I sometimes use AI to fix my English (especially when I'm trying to say something that pushes my grammar skill to the limit) and people like me can use that to inform others about that. Bad actors will always do weird stuff, this is mo

Totally! And even if it weren't, I'm still for labelling the AI generated content. It's just when someone's going to generate something, they should at least give a little more thought to the prompt.

In some web apps I code, I just serialize the view-model when the page is called with a ".json" or ".yaml" at the end. It forces you to be strict about not leaking private/complex data into the views and makes power

In my personal bubble of power users, Windows' dominance in gaming and coding has been heavily eroded. Even I switched to a Mac (considering I can't even play Red Alert 2 on this machine, that's a huge deal)!
