I said impressed, not surprised. Also I don't appreciate being called "a Hackernews".

Wow, what a ride. As a non-gamer, I clicked the link, saw a site that looks like it's Best Viewed In Internet Explorer, with a ticker of an obscenely high dollar amount. It took me a good 2 minutes to figure out this was about a video

Current top comment links to PrimeVue and I feel like it solves month/year selection very similarly (except not with a dropdown): https://primevue.org/datepicker/ This is the first UI component lib I checked. I&#x

The key problem all these frameworks solve is to let you store (and track changes to) data in a different structure than your UI. The moment you're not building a pure CRUD app, where the UI and the data always follow the exact same tr

You can test this. Get a bunch of audiophiles in a room, play various recordings from various media (24KHz wav, mp3 at good bitrates and encoding settings, bad mp3, ogg, CD, vinyl etc) without showing them which is which, ask which one they

Which means you can't have a partially instantiated object except while the constructor is running.

Only slightly related, I wish there were a way to express this in run-off-the-mill, imperative/eager languages. Eg some way to explicitly mark a class, or something like it, as immutable-but-partially-instantiated. TypeScript supports

I love that my Ford Focus' HVAC system is entirely disconnected from the rest, and fully button/dial controlled. I can turn off the infotainment screen radio thing and the HVAC unit still does its job. I love knowing that some sof

To my experience, AIs can generate perfectly good code relatively easy things, the kind you might as well copy&paste from stackoverflow, and they'll very confidently generate subtly wrong code for anything that's non-trivial

The `required` attribute, which this article is about, is an HTML5 thing and first appeared in browsers in 2010-2011. So sure, not brand spanking new, but the web was already used to write modern apps. There's no good reason for the va

Ruby is exactly as versatile as all those other languages you list. It was made before Rails was, and it can do everything eg Python can. It's not very popular anymore outside Rails but eg lots of people did APIs in Ruby using stuff li

Agree, if it pans out this way in reality of course. That'd be splendid! NodeJS went through something similar. It was tightly controlled by a single company (Joyent) who were juggling too many balls, and progress went slowly. Communit

The entire article is about office IT. Productivity software, etc. Basically, people emailing excel sheets to each other. I don't see how the OS running on servers is related to that.

Once you add all that, it loses "no need to learn something new". At that point, I think I'd just go with JSON Patch which solves all of these, and more.

Nice! I gotta say I didn't expect a thing called "JSON Merge Patch" to be simpler and more concise than a thing called "JSON Patch" :-)

This holds for psychotherapists too. Quit being a psychotherapist and people will find another psychotherapist. If this here is really how you feel then IMO your article is misrepresenting things. Feeling like you want to work on something

I quite like JSON Patch but I've always felt that it's so convoluted only because of its goal of being able to modify every possible JSON document under the sun. If you allow yourself to restrict your data set slightly, you can pa

Language is finite in the same way as our supply of UUIDs is, ie, not finite at all in any practical sense.
