It just occurred to me how much easier certain text-operations (like syntax highlighting, regular expressions and other parsers) if we consistently used the right unicode symbols for quotes and apostrophes

This makes little sense. You don't need more try..catch blocks than you would normally have a catch promise clause. Exceptions bubble up.

It's been really in three categories: 1. Projects that yield nothing financially. 2. Projects that help me establish me as a .. idk.. thoughtleader(?) in certain specific niche fields. 3. I've written 2 libraries in particular tha

My side projects tend to be libraries for other programmers. I usually get ideas by using existing libraries but being unhappy with the interface / api they offer. I love designing good apis that express the underlying concepts well,

When you use Generators for this style of concurrency, generators are comparable to async/await. The difference is that with async/await support, you still have the option for your promises to resolve generators. Basically by usin

Sounds like every opinion you held both before and after 2000 are extremes. Some nuance might be healthy!

I'm a big proponent of using PHP where it's appropriate, and I've found lots of good usecases for it. But suggesting that writing good PHP implies using a different runtime and different language, why not go to a different st

If you can write a <script> tag that references app.ab9a9a09fe9.js, presumably you can write a HTTP header that references that same file, no?

10-6. Software engineer at a large web company. Some people come in earlier, some later. The expectation is mostly around getting the job done, not how much time you spend in your seat. Also, be there for meetings. If I'm ever invited

I didn't make the 3% cut, and had a pretty awful experience going through the interview process at Toptal. I was given a Euler-project type of problem that I had to live-code under a (I believe) 20 or 30 minutes. After I didn't su

What do you consider a RESTful api?

It's not RESTful if it doesn't use hypermedia. Look into HAL, it actually probably makes this server a lot easier to use and discover when dealing with things like foreign keys.

You're not wrong, but what point are you making exactly in this thread? You're responding to a thread in which the top-poster argues that we shouldn't complain about a free service, and then the point is made that facebook ma

Kinda want to echo this. There's _so many_ projects that I could participate in, yours would have to be a pretty unique one for me to be interested. But that being said, it's not impossible. The people I've done 'fun, no

Pretty rude way to disagree with someone. I'd appreciate any criticism, but not sure what I'm supposed to do with this comment, other than feeling bad.

My pet peeve is Atom the protocol and Atom the text editor. They're obscuring a format and a protocol that's much more important for the web than another text editor is, and they're doing the world a disfavor as a result.

In MySQL for example, using UTF-8 charset will cause it to use 3 or 4 bytes per character. All the bytes transmitted on the wire will be UTF-8 strings, but this is disconnected from the underlying storage engine. I don't know if this i

Gitlab is massive though. I think it's a great solution for teams on dedicated hardware, but if you need something quick, low-maintenance and lightweight Gitlab might be a bit overkill.
