Just don't send big data. Send what you need in order to display the page, for most use cases that is really not much data. There's way too many web apps sending huge amounts of data and using a small fraction of it.

There's no reason you can't have the cake and eat it too. If google can index the entire web and have search results and AI results for you in an instant, then you can give users instant customer search for a mid sized corp. A sea

The reason is developers are worse. A decade or two ago, developers were nerds who loved tinkering with computers. Today tech is big money so everyone wants in. Most devs don't care, it's just a paycheck. Until someone starts sett

I'm not the person you asked but I agree with them. Superstition is stupid - we don't know so let's make stuff up. There is effectively a 100% chance you're wrong. I don't know what difference if any there is betwee

It depends on the dose, I've successfully programmed and written about programming while high on acid. Though usually just a half tab or even a quarter. I felt like it was useful, improved focus and creativity. One time I played CSGO o

I'm terrified of letting loose with alcohol because alcohol is a terrible drug. I've tried lots of different drugs and alcohol is in my opinion one of the worst. Culture pushes me to drink more (people buying drinks for me etc), a

I'm not really disagreeing with you but I have a 700/700 fiber connection that generally works perfectly for anything I do, and youtube craps out pretty frequently. It'll just fail to load videos and I have to refresh up to m

Sure, if the stack trace doesn't have any useful information then it's not useful. In my experience it's usually useful though, it usually tells you both what the problem is and where it is. Sadly a lot of people just don

The thing that gets me about this autonomous car thing is that it shouldn't really happen. When a car has to swerve to avoid an accident it is typically because the driver was speeding and/or not paying attention. Autonomous cars

I think the point is that the person orchestrating the agent(s) reviews the code. It doesn't make sense to have 5 Juniors using agents to submit PRs and a senior or two reviewing it all. You just have the senior(s) orchestrating agents

I like Java's exceptions. I've been working in C# and i really miss checked exceptions. Feels like if you use them well they're a great tool, but sadly a lot of devs just don't use the available tools very well.

I thought most languages have this? If you simply write a formula operations are ordered according to the language specifiction. If you want different ordering you use parentheses. Not sure how that interacts with this fast math thing, I do

On a normal keyboard? I would recommend an ergonomic keyboard. I started off using one from Microsoft then got a Logitech K860 and have been using that at home and at work for over half a decade now. I'm never going back, in my opinion

I think the point of the person you replied to is that this stuff is comparably unimportant. Micro plastics are as far as I know not even known to be particularly harmful. It's more of a "this is probably bad" type of thing.

> And the return isn't knowledge, but a diploma. Do you believe that if you were given a diploma saying you passed med school with flying colors, you could just go be a doctor? Knowledge doesn't matter, it's all about that

Yeah I get your point, and I generally agree for minor offenses like buying drugs or prostitution or whatever. But if someone can trivially be convinced to murder a bunch of people then the world is better off with them locked away.

I have to say that if someone is far enough gone that they can trivially be convinced to bomb innocent people then I'm fine with this type of entrapment. Great work, go ahead and lock them up for life.
