I use both Copilot and chat with GPT4. For now, it’s mostly copy/pasting large blocks of pre-existing code, types, etc. I have a pre-defined prompt set up to explain how to behave, languages I know, libraries in use, naming conventions

Hard agree. I’ve been at this for 22+ years now, and GPT4 by my side has made me AT MINIMUM 2x as productive; on a good day, 5x. The separation will very clearly be “legacy devs” vs “AI-powered devs”. I’ve spent a tremendous amount of time

We agree on the principle. I’m just pointing out that much smarter people than you and me have tried and failed to solve this for decades. My best understanding is; this is human nature, and cannot be solved, only mitigated. Smaller scale a

Like what? How? In my 25+ years if gaming, I have only seen it (mostly) solved in smaller/niche games where the community is small and healthy already (usually targeting “older” gamers), and when server admins are actively doing “their

Battlebit Remastered was an eye opener for me. 254 player first person shooter with cross-team proximity chat sounded like a recipe for disaster, but they made it work thanks to heavy moderation. After 50 or so hours, I’ve heard no more tha

As far as I understand, it’s probably a bit further out for psilocybin. Compass Pathways are the furthest along I believe, with Phase 3 reads-outs expected next year for treatment resistant depression. Unless it’s fast-tracked, 2025 seems m

Ooh, thanks for mentioning that, I’m ready to re-visit! I wonder if jungle1 and teamjungle are ported? Those were the first maps I made for any game (and I had no idea what I was doing). I fondly remember a conversation with a random person

I’m also singing ts-rest.com’s praise these days. Admittedly a small project with <25 endpoints atm, but holy crap, I am saving SO MUCH TIME on implementations, documentation, and bug hunting. I have separate packages (in a monorepo) for

Thank you, I appreciate you sharing some code :)

Can I ask your stack/toolkit? Sounds fantastic! I’m on my first project that resembles your description, and I _really_ like it (so far). Auto-documentation is also a big plus, imo. Our “truth schema” also outputs OpenAPI specs, markdo

by t1mmen 3y ago
That’s my thinking, too. I’ve recently been using ts-rest.com for a relatively small project at work (<20 API endpoints, NextJS frontend, Postgres). Its been such a joy writing the “source of truth” as API “contracts”, and having everyth

I agree with your disagreement. OP says: > And worst of all, as is happening to the friend I mentioned, you will have to lay-off people who don’t deserve it, just because the company says so. > > Good luck doing that if everyone i

I think this is peak happiness for me; giving a little of myself, making a (big or small) positive difference for someone else. I don’t “get” anything back, nor do I want that, but it makes me feel good. Everybody wins. My favorite game.

Thanks for highlighting these parts, I wouldn’t have read it otherwise. Wise words. Humans appear to need resistance between themselves and the achievement of a goal/wish, else we don’t seem to give it any real value. This example has

I hadn’t touched SQL for almost 7 years, but dipped my toes back in to build a PoC using Supabase. Despite some initial pains around RLS, I’ve grown to love it. Sure, Supabase has some awkward quirks and issue, and author has some good poin

This is cool, thanks for making it! When interviewing prospective hires, I am mostly looking for good people, with good intentions, that will work well in our culture. I love asking deeper/non-standard questions that are less about wor

Most of the tickers are traded on Canadian exchanges (NEO, TSX.V, CSE). If you’re in the US, I believe Interactive Brokers (and others) will let you buy stocks at these exchanges. You can do all this self-directed, no need to involve a proc

There is significant research happening in this space, though most clinical trials seem to be happening outside the US. Canada is taking major steps towards psychedelics as treatment for depression/MDD, palliative/end-of-life care

WakaTime is awesome, assuming you only need to keep track of how how long you're working on code. Shameless plug follows: timelyapp.com is similar to WakaTime, except it keeps track of _all_ the programs you use on the desktop, and fo

reselect has been magnificent to us (along with moving most fetching logic to thunks) API shapes change and evolve, and mapping raw API shapes to components (through Redux) became a major PITA, real fast. reselect solved all of that; we tra

This kind of feature is typically most useful in a foreign country. Roaming fees is absolutely a factor.

We started using ~this selector pattern for timelyapp.com almost two years ago, and have found it tremendously helpful. Anytime we’re reading data from Redux, it’s via a selector (usually a composition of multiple selectors). For data fetch

www.timelyapp.com is worth a look for automated time tracking too. Timely can track anything you work on (not just code), is a complete “time tracker” package. Disclaimer: I work there.
