I found it fun to read. Maybe it says something about you that you're personally offended by reading?

If you work in a regulated industry (medical, aerospace, auto) you need tracability of all code changes, so even your case 1 needs a ticket reference. Was it a bug? A feature change? Is it linked to requirements? Has it been tested and veri

Anyone have experience that can compare this with Clash?

> The economist is known to have an extreme liberal bent. So a book like that is expected. Thats simply untrue? Its one of the most balanced, centrist -- if opinionated -- news magazines.

This isn't new. Textbooks exist for the same reason, so we don't need to duplicate effort creating teaching materials and can have a kind of accepted core cirriculum.

Honestly reading the pytorch implementation of minGTP is a lot more informative than an inscrutable 3d rendering. It's a well commended and pedagogical implementation. I applaud the intention, and it looks slick, but I'm not sure

The new teams is react + webview see: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams-blog/... This to me was the biggest strike against MAUI. Teams team recently decided to switch tech stacks to address po

While true, I think the point is a mismatch between MS business strategy (marketing MAUI and the next big thing and officially supported) while not properly staffing. As an end user, you might make tech decisions precisely becuase of the ma

You don't need msys2 and bash. You can just install it with choco and the powershell integration is great.

I don’t understand your view. How do you improve your skill in the craft ? Or learn new technologies ? You wait for your employer to tell you to learn something ? That’s a sure fire way to always be behind the curve.

You’ve never written a utility at work to help that isn’t part of your core work? You’ve never had a side project in 20 years ? Maybe your view would change if you were actively looking for work? Spend a week on some fun project while taki

A big problem we have in a lot of fields is that no researcher is incentivized to even try to reproduce work. No credit is given by tenure boards or grant agencies.

Written by people who think the core contribution of computer science grads is 'coding'.

It’s a huge issue in most fields. No one uses latex anymore outside of niches like math and physics.

I feel like the author really overstates how hard it is to make a new crate. Making a cargo.toml is simple and frankly you don’t do it so often as to be a burden. Encouraging cyclic dependencies on the other hand “because it is easy” seems

Passing functions in C# is the worst experience though, and not having partial application really forces you into DI hell, which is the worse part of large software in C# IMO. Dependency Injection frameworks are soul killing

I disagree -- that would disprove your claim, as your claim was too broad. Same if they handed you chainsaws or elephants, or seventy-two tennis balls. The more correct claim is you can juggle [some small number of items with particular pro

no one should be writing C unless they have a very specific use case. There are so many better safer options like Rust or compile-to-c like Zig, Odin, and Nim.

Carmack is a smart guy but don't confuse his expertise in other areas with machine learning. Smells of hubris...

Helix takes (IMO) the very smart approach of making language server plugins "just work". The defaults are good enough for most use cases. This is a key friction point for new users of vim/neovim that don't want to spend

None that i've seen. Everyone seems to love Lua but its a mess for a config language -- its just untyped dictionaries passed around everwhere. Spelling error in some special string keyword? Too bad. Might as well use lisp at that poin

Then they'll never use neovim? That's poor advice.

The dissonance between the lua config and vimscript config is infuriating, combined with plugins not providing default config snippets (other than copy and pasting them off the their github readme's).

A tip for your future: if someone doesn't understand what you write, say, or draw, that is squarely on you. "I don't tend to spend a lot of time thinking about... ". Putting information or statements into context is a ke
