I love Astro so much. After 20 years in data and backend, I got back into frontend for a big project. After banging my head with React, I took a leap of faith and choose Astro with Svelte. That includes an initial try with SvelteKit. It&

The Hergé and Chang story is wonderful, and also a wonderful story of what’s wrong with the world today. Like millions of kids, Tintin opened my eyes to the world and made me want to explore different cultures. No doubt, it moved the needl

As someone who has always been curious about building one but haven’t dove into it, I’d love detailed plans and a beginner-oriented tutorial. I’d be happy to donate/patreon to an effort.

Yeah, kind of a bummer. B&W makes great headphones. I expect it to be "made" pretty soon.

That seems like a bad scam that carries a lot of risk vs. low reward. These are community colleges. It's not like tuition is 30k a semester. Then you have to have a bank account to deposit the funds, which can trace you back. The a

I don't know how many arguments I've had with how many partners I've had about this. It's a dishwasher, not a dish re-washer. My wife and her family are all freakin' religious wash first, then put it in the dishwash

For Lightning at least, it was touchy as hell. It required a really good constant connection, or you'd constantly disconnect to the base car OS and reconnect to CarPlay. My wife and I had a handful of cables, even quality ones like A

Wouldn't Zero be a hero in disguise, then? When I hear stories about Tim or Zero, it makes sense... with the caveat of whether they are actually transferring knowledge to teammates, and whether the other team members are capable of tak

I mean, he called the other engineers "those fuckers." I was definitely not sympathetic. I was pretty livid, however, context is necessary. This person didn't even try. Engineers at this company rarely ask for help from o

I'll add to this some companies (my current one) still has a hero culture. People that are forced to work all weekend to fix a problem are lauded as the ones who went the extra mile. An ego boost and kudos, for some reason are reward

I agree 100% to use the lazy pronunciation. I'm a native speaker, and I don't think I've ever heard the formal except when talking to others who are trying to learn Cantonese.

I was trying to learn React shortly after hooks came out. Some in the community claimed you can drop Redux, which totally baffled me. Redux was far simpler. Then it became “wait just don’t use hooks till we work out the issues.”

I’ve been a backend and data engineer who got my start in full stack. I’m working on a project and selected Svelte for the front end after trying to learn React. I agree 100%. Svelte is great. Even 5 with its warts isn’t as bad as react
