I remember using linux pipes for a shell-based irc client like 12 years ago. For most application uses, they're plenty fast enough. Kinda wish I had the source code for that still.

These downvotes for a genuine question (-3 points at time of writing) are why I don't participate in HN tbh. And maybe they're exclusively for my parenthetical request for feedback, in which case, still, like, come on guys. Those

Yeah I've been in that camp since like 2016. TypeScript is basically an essential for me now, and I don't debate it with anyone. If they don't get it, it just gives me a baseline understanding of how little experience they ha

When migrating sites built on archaic technology, the best bet usually is scraping the site externally and generating normalized data from it and using that to either build a new site or migrate to a new platform with custom scripts.

This reminds me that I made a way to create love2d fonts using pico8 files and ended up coming up with a 3x4 font that I absolutely love and hope to use in a homemade game one day.

My fyp is mostly Scott Pilgrim clips and bladerunner2049-esque photography, which is weird because I've never seen Scott Pilgrim vs The World or either Blade Runner. Sure there's occasional dance memes just like there's also

Can someone explain why a bezier function is used in the mouse app? I would guess it's to help give smoother and more natural movement to the mouse using predictions of where it's going based on last few points, but I can't r

Why not? I can't think of anything off the top of my head that I think is fundamentally broken about TypeScript, or even that I strongly dislike about it.

What ways does do the wrong things by default? I can't think of a single one. You might say, well, == is broken and you have to use ===, but that's not "the wrong thing by default" unless you assume that == is what ough

The second best code is the code that gets the job done. The best code is the code that also doesn't make it harder to continue to get the job done.

I'm glad we're in the age of static typing. The age of dynamic typing as a response to incorrect static typing was a necessary evil. We had to take a break from broken languages in order to realize what needed to be fixed in tho

That was literally the point of Java , to be syntactically and semantically simple, in contrast to the extreme complexity of C++. But just like with Lisp, that only moves necessary complexity to another layer. True wisdom in language desig

I guess that’s where I draw the line too. And I generally don’t even write software anymore because of that. Everything’s pretty much been done. The few websites I do need to maintain, though, I’m gonna make sure it’s something that isn’t a

I have a few difficulties working on ordinary web CRUD apps: 1. I'm really bad at memorizing things, I'm better at memorizing principles. Which makes most APIs like Rails and Django difficult for me. This is probably why I ended u
