We meant name shared values, not politicians. Free speech? Free markets? Those are good examples of values, if a little vague. But in reality, even with broad definitions of them, I doubt you could get a significantly different percentage t

I dunno man, I think you are getting tripped up on the evolution of the English language. Yes, your kids are either male or female (mine are all male). Those fundamental physical characteristics can't be changed by language. But what l

Thanks, very interesting read. And interesting times! "Take the uncensored, dangerous model down or I will inform [your employer's] HR about what you've created."

I get: "The dog species typically has two sexes: male and female." UPDATE: OK I signed up for Bard to try it, too, and it indeed did mention intersex dogs (TIL) and gender (complete response below). After reading it all, though, I

I think you may be assuming a much larger overlap of shared values than actually exists.

Totally bro! Let me just post that to this public internet forum for you... UPDATE: No, that was a joke. I was referring to imagery, which fictional or not can definitely be illegal in the USA even if you draw it yourself in your private jo

OP is talking about visual imagery, but even textual depictions may not be as legally safe as you think. Further reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_status_of_fictional_porn...

Can you tell us more about using a Steam Deck this way? Do you often use the terminal (or something like VS Code Remote extension) to do builds on a beefier machine, or do you do all your development literally on the SteamDeck hardware usin

I click through every formatter-related post because I am looking for something better than what I have. My team at work wanted to use Prettier, but lack of configurability (and also heinous bugs!) made me switch to dprint[1]. But even dpri

I don't get your central point. What is different about now compared to 5 years ago, when it comes to a code linter and/or bundler? At first glance, I thought you were saying "this Rome thing might have been relevant 5 years

Indeed. I think we’ve gotten a lot closer in the past few years though (after wanting this for almost 20 years without progress). Rust’s language service (optionally) adds phantom code to several modern editors, showing inferred types in th

I initially had this same reaction. Well, perhaps less stridently assembled, but my initial take on it was the same: that ligatures for coding fonts were objectively dumb. But, I was wrong. In several years of using them now, there has neve

Yep, that’s even more important than ligatures. :)

My understanding is that both font and editor must support it; the editor must know when/how to render the ligatures, but the font must define what the glyphs look like, or else they won’t look any different that the regular sequence o

Looks very readable, but for me personally, ligatures for things like ->, =>, <=, >= and those weird JavaScriptisms like == vs === has really become table stakes for me. Didn't care about that at all until about 2020, but c

That's true (that this will be an interesting litmus test) but I doubt it can be seen so quickly. Almost everybody went remote 3 years ago (though some were already), and now the dinosaurs (but maybe also lots of imitate-the-big-guys

I came to this thread ready to say that this guy is a moron (and I'm still withholding judgement on that[1]) but there is a fundamental truth here: you have to be good at the tooling. Meet/Zoom/Mmhmm whatever; they aren'

I know that's your point, but I don't understand why you think that. Even with your own theoretical additions to what the programs above need, none of the programs above actually need "all" access enabled. And even when

I know this doesn't directly address your specific scenario, with the '.js' import. But there is a similar situation that got a lot better with TypeScript 5. For a long time I was annoyed by the similar problem of Deno's

Well they might not be your use cases, but surely you can imagine them, right? A build tool, that reads input files and writes output files, and nothing else. A CLI that interacts with the bug tracker, and needs to read the environment and

Wild take, but agree with your first sentence. 1.) it was never a language 2.) indisputably better security any time you take advantage of any of the features to disable reading of environment variables, using network, reading files, etc.

Precisely. So much of the negativity in this thread (and elsewhere) weirdly conflates Deno with a language . Deno is an open source runtime for TypeScript (and JavaScript and WASM). One that has been delightful, in my experience, for syste
