Rails guy turned rustacean here. If I have a piece of code that looks gnarly, I'll write a comment above it explaining what it does. Elegance != readability always. This can often happen with complicated map/filter/etc chains

Side note: I believe it is good form to always have unit tests that test the "up" and "down" for every single migration in your app. It's not always possible but if you're strict about it you can avoid a lot of

We leaned really heavily into Jets and found it to be a drop-in replacement for most things we take for granted in Rails. There was some tinkering around that had to be done to get OAuth and a few other things to work properly, but Arist ha

Fair, but if you're writing a communication where you care about wording, it's probably going to be public or semi-public anyway

former CTO @ Arist (YC S20). We were able to get all the way through series A using Ruby on Jets and it continues to be a major driver behind Arist's growth. Tung, the guy behind it, is simply fantastic.

The biggest flop about it is it's higher carbs than normal meat. Steak and things like that typically have zero or near zero carbs per serving. This plant-based stuff is carby as hell, so keto people are going to avoid it, and basicall

My point is more that google of today undeniably has the resources to be that detailed, but they are actively choosing to dumb things down and use AI to figure out what I meant to search instead of just searching for what I tell it to, and

Regarding the copy-cat behavior, the types of personalities that tend to be OK with working for FANG (external locus of control individuals who are likely to conform) aren't going to put themselves out there and do what they think is b

Is it though? Google has dropped so much from its index these days it is no longer "just put that phrase you wrote ten years ago in quotes and the forum post will come right up". Smaller search engines obviously also suffer from t

Just to add on here, I routinely scan the top navbar for an item saying "Screenshots" when I arrive at sites like this and if I don't find something like that I'm like wtf and leave

Yeah, I think people take "single page application" a little too literally these days

Some web design advice: I looked for a tab called "Screenshots", didn't find one, didn't find any general info about what this is other than the buy now stuff, so I hit the Back button. Edit: I re-visited and scrolled do

Difference being jQuery was well suited and really necessary back in the day. Browser incompatibility meant that pretty much any non-trivial DOM operation needed to be wrapped by jQuery to be done safetly. Now every browser is just chrome e

It's a mix of this FOMO and a lot of people not knowing how to wire up AJAX well. I've seen entire teams reach for react just because there is a portion of the page where some AJAX was required and react is the only way this new c

The thing that killed it imo is Tesla's focus on proprietary charging stations where most other players seem to be converging on shared infrastructure. The last thing we need is a network of charging stations that work with only one br

What they're describing as a "preview" environment is literally my definition of a good staging environment. The death of staging is greatly exaggerated.
