It didn't ask me to pick a random number though :-). It asked me to make a prediction.

I don’t think it’s a loose vs strong type thing. Changing languages and being productive is hard in either direction. I’d say I had the same experience from c# to JS. If you are working in a team types are invaluable unless you have a very

My thought was to make it more of a pedagogical example than a canonical default. You can have both!

Something in between the two. The creator of BaseClass documents their class with the example code for InheritedClass.

It’s interesting because copy and pasting a class gives you something humans love: a template! Now what if: for OO languages the virtual methods can be adorned with both an example basic implementation and a comment with instructions. Then

I have noticed they are in a distinctive style of “Hi we are X … some background about us … the problem we identified … how we solve it … we think there is a market because …” I haven’t read the guidelines but that’s the pattern I’ve seen.

Technically I am sure it's brilliant. But part of me thinks how do I trust this in the world of fake news and reviews. Your bot probably takes everything at face value. To make sure I trust something I need to read at least 20 or so or

Your team has 1M LOC in React, and then they stop supporting it, you are in trouble, because Chrome in 2023 might not work with 2021 React. In the real world a sudden loss of support from a big company like Facebook for dev tools is unlikel

Type X where X is the number of ways through the door. Type 1 is a one way door, no return! Type 2 is a 2 way door. I’d probably label type 1 a kiki (a pointy decision … beware!)

Bad at math is OK (and being too good at math means you are weird) attitude is (maybe was?) very prevalent in UK.

Great idea IMO. Hopefully you know about scrimba ( https://scrimba.com/ ) which is probably similar in goals but has a different approach, you watch a coding tutorial then you can pause the video and edit the code (the instru

The point of a calculator is to check this. If you could have invested more money in retirement account because you are renting you might end up ahead.

Depends what you mean by forced. If you can get fired for “underperforming” or even think you can then this is forced in the minds of the employee. There is a massive power imbalance. Sure the guy can resign and get another job, just like t

You want to be carrying topographic maps and a compass if you are hiking in the mountains. You have to know how to use them. GPS is great but cannot be relied on. Batteries die.

They are not making that much as it’s unpaid overtime or “suicide” as they colloquially call it according to the article. Edit: sorry I’m wrong. I read “kills you over time” as “kills your overtime”

They are being very smart, by striking and standing up for their rights. I think forcing people to work that many hours should be illegal, like in the EU

Doesn’t work for me. As evidenced by past parking tickets, uncollected rubbish bins and other such things. OTOH my bills are automatically paid for the most part. Has nothing to do with procrastination. Also if you want to focus on some cre

That would be ironically very productive procrastination!

I had the same thought about trust. For me even if you are not an expert in the scientific sense, some reasons why I should believe in this course would be good. Maybe you’ve tested it on X people and they have reported success, and have st

90eu a month is a fraction of the rent I was paying for a shared house room in 1999 in a cheap city. 90eu a month office must be in south east asia or something like that.
