That’s interesting because I’ve been able to keep my iPads and computers entirely productivity devices but my phone wastes considerable amounts of my time.

Agreed with this point. I try to separate everything possible from my company with multiple accounts. It’s annoying, sure, but you’ve got to protect yourself.

This is tangential but one thing that bothers me about C# is that you can declare a `readonly struct` but not a `readonly class`. You can also declare an `in` param to specify a passed-in `struct` can’t be mutated but again there’s nothing

That’s a great term and I’ll probably use it instead of mine. Thanks!

> I don't necessarily see any reason to attribute this specific outcome to Cook I do: he was CEO when the outcome was realized. Shouldn’t CEO performance be judged by outcomes the company realizes during their tenure?

My personal preference for composition over inheritance is that it forces callers to call the owned-object’s methods directly rather than automatically through inheritance. There is more typing/boilerplate but when you read the class f

I agree with most of this but not the todo list part. I think more successful projects tend to have upfront planning and consider it a real part of the work. Even more successful projects will continue to revisit and update their plan as th

Your point reads as pro Cook to me. We got hardware that decreased obsolescence. If anything I’d be pissed if Cook was out and the new CEO’s strategy involved making chips that needed upgrades every other year again. Or if they were like, “

I’m with you. I think Cook has done pretty well. A replacement is not automatically going to be better. I’d wager there’s a good chance we get someone who just wants to squeeze margins rather than invest in risky and logistically complex ha

IDK I live in the same world as them. They sold out of what are essentially $200 socks. I’m happy to disagree but it’s certainly printing money by my definition.

Millions, enough to make a difference for most people.

I’ll admit that I think it’s a BS product. I find it funny that our little HN seems to agree yet Apple’s over there basically printing money.

I bounced off Cursor. I even liked it. I just don’t want another new IDE. I changed to a copilot subscription. I actually find the in-editor chat window to really suck. Most of my AI use is pasting code into ChatGPT and asking questions (an

Yeah, I'm with you. I've worked on several i18n frameworks, including ones for AAA game titles at Microsoft. You can make pluralization work but the "(s)" is going to tend to work better. And localization isn't just

I’d say overreaction. The real world is full of tradeoffs and I’ve seen people try to get minutia like this correct in convoluted contexts which actually broke the core application logic. Given the limited time we can spend on things, suppo

Weird. I thought HN automatically combined submissions with the same URL unless there was like a year or so of space between them.

I’ve seen a lot of programming fonts here recently so I thought I’d post my favorite. I’ve been happily using this for the last decade or so. This has been posted before but it’s been awhile. I hope a new generation of hackers finds this in

I didn’t realize Citra had been sued by Nintendo. This site says it shut down but it looks like you can still download it. I’m surprised that litigation didn’t make the front page of Hacker News when it happened.

I’ve found the hesitation to shovel text into AI weird given the _lack_ of hesitation to shovel text into search engines. Either case is weird in absolute terms but in relative terms, it all goes to the same place. The human-like nature of

I meant my comment to be general but maybe Java is uniquely bad. I’ve worked in C++, C#, rust, and TypeScript personally so I really can’t comment on Java.

That does not align with my experience at all. Lots of companies are seeking investment right now but investors are being shrewd spenders. AI is a bit of an anomaly in that it still attracts investments.

So I looked at the examples and it just seems like a lot for a little. https://izumi.7mind.io/distage/basics.html#activation-axis I feel like all you need there is a ctor param that takes a greeter and pass in whicheve

I generally liked this PDF but disagreed with this part. I’ve seen intelligent people become stupid depending on the context and vice-versa.

I looked at the link you shared but it’s just a page of additional links. Can you provide specific examples here instead? What I think is most useful in cases like this is before-and-after code snippets showing how the library adds value.

To be fair they aren’t binaries, they are a spectrum. I think it’s fine to classify things like this. It doesn’t preclude the existence of other dimensions. It limits the analysis and makes it easier to understand because the point gets los

I don’t think I’ll ever understand the affinity for DI libraries. I write a lot of tested code but it’s always just plain old interfaces and constructor arguments for me. Other parts of our org use a DI framework and I feel like it causes a

It’s here but do we think it’s better? Should it stay? As a society we do get to answer these questions.

Amazingly Windows even has a store built in. Yet the Windows store is so bad it’s losing despite its considerable advantage as a default. Reminds me of Edge & Chrome.
