GitHub is also ran by a untrustworthy megacorp with a ToS. Just wait til the ToS changes to where you can’t use it to told others accountable.

fp-ts has this same unfortunate issue ( https://gcanti.github.io/fp-ts/guides/purescript.html#data ) where a PureScript one-liner becomes 11 lines of boilerplate TypeScript. Or ( https://gcanti.github.io&#

But reading those definitions at the top of the file is usually one of the first places I’m going to go to understand what’s going on. The 4-line option to me is much easier to grok, not only because it’s more terse but the way the pipes ar

In an FP code base, it’s common for ADTs to be the backbone of all data structures from Maybe to Either, to anything you use to model data types. That being the case changing 4 lines into 13 scaled into a entire code base is a massive amoun

Is there a functional language that compiles to Dart? There’s a difference between FP features & FP ergonomics. This seems like a very verbose way to go about things I’m used to being simple/easy.

If this was the case, it’s very important folks know such forges aren’t synonymous with the underlying tool. By all means you are free to use one, but Git (& other DVCSs) doesn’t require a cloud service. …And even if you do use one, it’

Instead of Git? Git is just a version control system & it doesn’t dictate the system for communication + review.

I remember that time & feeling the absolute need to run Minefield (for Fx v4.x) over stable since the next gen features/performance were too important even without add-on compatibility. The 4.0 release took forever in testing &am

Capyloon is an alternative trying to carry the FxOS torch, but its focus on IPFS & things other than telephony make it hard to recommend if you can’t use a phone as a phone.

Make it trouble. I really wish the timing of FxOS was better as well as the marketing. I’d certainly choose it over Android, but we’re now sort of locked into the duopoly with terrible decisions from apps like Signal requiring you have a An

Even still, add-ons have always been a Fx selling point so I’m still quite shocked.

The biggest advantage is the ability to reproduce your mutable environment‽ You get more advantages when the whole environment is reproducible.

I hope the standardize on aliasing -ise and -ize endings in the CLI instead of throwing errors to folks just wanting to optmise or optimize because it shouldn’t matter.

What stands out to me is the way “three” & “free” have become indistinguishable among all classes now with the dental fricative being lost. It’s a shame since it’s a unique sound only a few languages including English.

Please tell my your hill also doesn’t let folks use target=_blank without a very good reason to break the user agent's default behavior.

Surprisingly then clicking reader mode, some of those images come back. Anyone know why?

Hybrid work was always a nice balance (having been fully-remote & on-premise). But ‘hybrid’ could mean a lot of things. Meeting up once a week, quarter, or annually for some teams & projects are enough to build that missing trust. S

We can start by moving the things we can to services that respect our privacy. Over time you can pry back some of your autonomy.

I’m disappointed at how much value some place in the +1 count on a proprietary code forge that the writer suggests not even taking charge & having your own dedicated page & embedding call-to-actions in the UI itself. I can’t blame t

Idiomatic JavaScript doesn’t use currying. If you add it to your code base, you are now siloing your project to folks that understand currying which has two problems: 1) hiring Joe Schmo to add/maintain will be harder 2) folks that und

Agree & disagree. What you need is a language where all of these features are first class, piping/compose operators, etc. but without this, the code base becomes unidiomatic, hard to read, and difficult for coworkers to understand.

I wouldn’t care so much if I could get a USB 3.2 or 4 device that’s only 2–4 GiB for like $2. I would actually buy a handful for each system I need, label it, and update that dedicated drive. However, fast, new drives don’t come at sizes ap

There are plenty of Gecko & WebKit forks out there if you don’t like what base Fx gives you.

It’s behind a flag for Nightly. Some Fx forks like LibreWolf allow enabling it even not on Nightly.

It’s a shame too because it takes a lot more resources to encode & can often give results that are too smooth. JPEG XL offers a lot of features from years of other formats like FLIF that never quite made it over the hump. You know you’r

No one said you had to ungoogle your life all at once. Take steps. Switch your browser to Fx or something else. Pick up a new email address with low fees with calendar & contact sync over CalDAV/CardDAV & keep both emails in us
