WebRTC and decentralization. I mean actual decentralization and not crypto bullshit or web services.

This matter is a very clear choice: 1) Have children early at risk of living life without wealth but at minimum risk of health for all parties. 2) Delay. This risks never having children for various biological reasons for the impractically

It is also worth noting the Iranian supreme leaders (there have only been two) are not Ayatollahs. I see these terms falsely conjoined many times in the comments here. Comparatively the Ayatollahs, or specifically the Grand Ayatollahs, are

Test runners have been super requested lately in the Node GitHub issues. I have not understood why that is because writing a test running of your own is trivial.

* Don’t state the obvious. In this case obvious is anything that is already known to your audience. People frequently do this in an attempt to be clever or appear intelligent, but it’s neither. * Don’t be clever. Clever is the attempt to sh

There are some many problems with large SPA frameworks. These are basically risk mitigation strategies for large employers as architectures in a box. These frameworks mitigate some level of decision making capacity which supposedly eases hi

Most developers I have worked with in the corporate world refuse to put things in writing. I have found the people that cannot write also cannot plan or architect software, which is then predictive of the output quality, process, and speed

Things that have to do with code, but not product, that uniquely qualify your existence are your 6 figure ideas. Examples: * Architecture - Most people writing code cannot plan, write, or envision an original solution to something wildly a

Web 3 has been defined as all kinds of nonsense for the last 15 years. The first time I heard this was the semantic web and almost immediately business tried to redefine that term to some conglomeration of social media and advertising. Cr

Don’t bother with decentralization. Nobody knows what that is. You will just end up wasting your time defining a term they don’t to hear because they have already settled on unrealistic expectations that have nothing to do with decentralizi

I solved for decentralization with a Nodejs app, but have no idea what to do with it. No, it has nothing to do with crypto-coins or blockchain.

Yes, the investigation is independent. What I believe you mean to suggest is that it is not impartial and lacks the adversarial natural of a US legal tribunal.

These version numbers fail to stick because business people with no understanding of the technology keep trying to make it about the content. Going back 15 years ago people tried the term “Web 3.0” first as the semantic web and then some ad

I wrote a thorough examination of state management with a code example. That essay is small enough to fit on two printed pages. I cannot share things I have written without breaking the anonymity of this account. Here is the summary: * You

I super enjoy pushing innovative new front end technologies in personal projects where a 30 second fix might take as much as 5 minutes after test automation and all necessary due diligence, but at past jobs I just dig that hole they tell me

This sounds like all but two of my software jobs. The greatest challenge of being an individual contributor is being beholden to the constraints of the environment. If they tell you to dig a hole then that’s what you do. If they tell you

I am a big fan of forced simplicity. In practice that means (dramatically) less code, less abstraction, single paradigm, less choices. People tend to find the code extremely readable and easy to follow but yet somehow exotically foreign and

I am not a zealot as the book might describe. My personal goals are portability and predictability of code. Use of functions with defined return types in TypeScript, as opposed to other containers by reference, allow me to achieve those goa

My guide to web theory the boring way: 0. Don’t waste your time dicking around with tools. Save that immaturity for the children you will ultimately replace. 1. Make a new language in XML Schema. This will teach you about node relationships

That isn’t really a solution. The confusion is the inability for most people to discern the words decentralized and distributed , which is the primary fraud of crypto. Centralized finance already has distribution in place just for securi
