The first thing I thought was Mark Cuban was the perfect guy to use as an example. It made me trigger even more for the exact reason you mentioned.

Just because the market is big doesn't mean it's easy to get a slice. The food industry is absolutely huge and also very brutal. Margins are razor thin and people get crushed constantly.

> TDD might just achieve this by a fluke I am confused by this comment and the overall sentiment in the video. Short dev cycles isn't an accidental byproduct - it's literally one of the key parts of tdd. The first google result

Funnily enough the reasons you gave are the reasons I like vue and dislike React. I like de facto solutions instead of half-baked libraries that might have slight incompatability issues. I also like the freedom and flexibility that vue offe

I've never really bought into this. The diffing is mostly an implementation deatil that is abstracted away. React could check to see if props.items changed instead of the nonsense it does. If it still does that in 2021. The thing is vu

This is so bizarre, what questions are you getting that require you to refer to the rfc - something with such detail that it covers things like how many bytes are allocated to which field. If you're doing something so niche like some k

Seconded. Unless someone has family or is stuck up here for some reason, it's not worth it. Nobody is serious about being competitive, it's all about trying to keep trudging along with whatever people are stuck here. All the talk

Ok, exaggerations about elm's safety aside, there's the huge issue of it's readiness for production. It's not just a fledgling project, it's a project that's being carried by one person for a very broad scope,

This is not a bug, it's how web apps are supposed to work. The url should be updated to reference the current app view - this way you can copy the url for that particular resource and access it again by pasting with the same url. This

The writing on the wall has been there for a while. It's not just about making more money. These companies have executives that need to show that they're creating a streaming service to increase their shareholder value. Hell, even

I have my backend on a different subdomain instead of a subdirectory because it solves issues at the dns level. This means I don't have to deal with setting up a reverse proxy or separate rules for cloudflare. This applies not only to

I mean, it probably will. Wix doesn't target developers or anyone tech-savvy, they target average people that see an ad, and then buy into it.

Am I reading something wrong? I thought they meant it outputs beautiful websites, whereas your comment seems to imply that it's the code/(library api) that's beautiful.

This is not the way. If we relegate privacy to fringe browsers like this, we'll lose in the long run. It's not possible to have 0.05% percent of the market, and try and compete with goliaths like Google. So it creates a feedback l

What a topsy-turvy article. Mail is fine if you use browser-based solutions. Nobody is talking about only sending plaintext emails? Wtf? Why are they running so much stuff on wine? Why are they upgrading their kernel every few weeks? How do

'Expert Systems' and 'Knowledge Based Systems' make a comeback, that's right, get your punch cards and rev up that lisp machine. We're going back to a time where some of these algorithms were more maintainable

by preommr 6y ago
Because long-term maintenance isn't the concern. Most devs switch jobs in 2-5 years (or at least that's the common advice given). So the incentive is to play musical chairs, and hope that you've moved on by the time the music

Potentially unpopular opinion: Good. I am tired of people just putting large images into their websites where the main image is barely relevant to the rest of the page. It was sloppy and lazy, like modern day clip art. And if someone really

No, because components implies inputs (props), and things like conditional rendering, or slots (props.children), or even life cycle hooks. You'd have to make code style decisions like what kind of code style to use (functional vs class

Won't work. It's a cool proof of concept, but practically, 0% chance of it being really useful. Converting figma layouts to code is fairly trivial. Converting it to code that's usable is a whole other story. There's the

It'll be really interesting to see what DO's business strategy is. If they try to compete with the big-3 (AWS, Azure, GCP), then they're going to fail. I really hope that there isn't external pressure to go down that rou
