Classes are very underutilised in TypeScript. I recently introduced them to our codebase at my day job and got a fair bit of pushback because it wasn’t “JavaScripty” enough.

Anytime I’ve come across the need to do this, I’ve found a class is a better and less complicated solution. I really like the pattern of value objects from Domain Driven Design. Create a class that stores the value, for example email addres

Just got the email from them explaining the changes. It goes like this. Vercel: We’re changing our pricing. Our community has told us we’re expensive. Also Vercel: Your bill is going up.

While Google makes money showing these ads to us, I don’t expect these changes will be for our benefit.

Would you consider someone without Go experience if they’ve got equivalent experience in Node? I’m very keen to learn Go, but haven’t used it professionally.

I recently watched a talk he gave with the same title. It was excellent. Honestly having one of those planning/discovery meetings before any code gets written can prevent so many nasty problems.

This reminds me a lot of value objects from Domain Driven Design

The regional popup on that website blocked me from seeing the page. What an extremely hostile bit of UX!

After almost 5 years of operation, WeCode NI has started to fail and I don't have the time required to keep it running. So I've decided to shut it down and make the code public.

I’m a fan of them too. Their pricing gives me a “we will punish your success” vibe. I suppose that’s preferable to paying through the nose for not scaling.

Offt, not a good look for Railway, Render or Vercel!

I’ve been thinking about something like this but with an e ink display. I want something that has the frequencies and waypoints I need in case my iPad dies that isn’t reliant on power. Very cool project!

Will schema versioning be coming to hoscuspocus or will this be locked behind a paywall? We’ve sponsored tiptap for a while now and I’d hate to be locked out of features because we need to self host.

Another example from a few years back. https://m.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/3000-... You can believe that an event mostly orchestrated by paramilitary gangs is above board if you wish, but I know

They definitely notice. https://belfastmedia.com/mystery-surrounds-source-of-thousan... The red and blue pallets specifically are owned by just two companies. The pine pallets are stolen from local shopping centres etc.

Rarely are all of the things burnt paid for. A lot of the pallets etc are stolen from local businesses.

I thinks the idea is that it has two factors built in. The password/pin is something you know. You still have to use it on a specific device though, which is the something you have.

WeCode NI ( https://wecodeni.com ) a job board for developer in Northern Ireland. It has paid me several thousand pounds over the last few years. This past few months have been quiet. I’d be interested in a partner to help grow it
