Sure, it's much easier to read, especially when it comes to finding and understanding a two-character diff in a 50-char regex. Sure, I get the benefits of type safety. Sure, it'll save me time debugging when I accidentally create

Wow, finding this tool has made my day - thank you for making it! I did a quick skim through the code, and it appears that askgit reads the repo into a SQLite DB first, then queries that. Is that right? Also, have you looked at Fossil for a

Git is a database. It's designed for storing the changes made to files over time. But hey, if there's a different kind of database that you think would be better here, I'd be fascinated to see it. Just make sure that it can

Hi, I'm a Developer Advocate at LaunchDarkly: https://launchdarkly.com/ Obviously I'd like you to use our service, but I'd rather that you find the one that best suits your business needs. There are plenty of

(I'm a Developer Advocate for LaunchDarkly.) There's a huge amount of value in being able to flip a flag value and have the app react without a restart. The most basic scenario: being able to separate deploy from release. Deploy c

(I'm a Developer Advocate for LaunchDarkly.) Both of these are true. See also my reply to the parent comment - you don't even need a local cache, since all flag evaluation calls should include a fallback value.

Hi - Dev Advocate for LaunchDarkly here. There's the local cache feature mentioned by shoo below, but more simply, there's also a fallback in the flag eval function, which looks like: flag_value = LDClient.variation("fl

That sounds fantastic! Got a link? Even if there's nothing demo-able yet, I'd like to star your repo (assuming it's on Github) so I get release updates.

Quoting the article: Around 60% of packages on npm have not been updated in a year or more. Despite the lack of maintenance these packages are still downloaded billions of times. This is a problem across many other languages/framewor

How does performance compare to Docker Desktop? My employer has a complex Compose setup for building our server infra, and it's pretty taxing to run.

Have you looked at the iOS App Store lately? There are tens of thousands of games there. Apple Arcade has a small (100+) but well-curated selection of good games that run on both iOS and MacOS. Oh, you meant PC games? Sure, the Mac only has

Wow, that is FANTASTIC. I've not tried it yet, but it looks like a very approachable execution of a brilliant idea. I'm a DevRel who's fascinated by DX and I WANT THIS. It's a shame it doesn't also capture the code&

This looks cool, but there's absolutely nothing on the page about OS and hardware requirements. I can't even tell if it's for Windows, Mac or both.

The idea that "if only web browsers didn't render bad HTML, the web would be so much better" is one of the oldest myths in web development, and I'm kind of amazed that it's still showing up. What you call the perm

Fascinating work, thank you! Possible issue: have I misread it, or is the explanation of HTTP/3's advantages entirely missing from this section[1]? It's in the section header, but HTTP/3 isn't mentioned again until

I'm having a hard time identifying the author's primary motivation in this vague cloud of worries and demands. If it's the fear that incisive criticism is dying in contemporary commentary, he does at least provide supporting

This is a fantastic article. I was daunted when I saw the length, but everything about it - the prose style, the mixture of drawings, the pace - led me through and out with a whole load of valuable lessons about load balancing, caching, iso

_All I'm saying is you can build a pretty successful business even with a bad engineering team._ I completely agree. The most important lesson I’ve learned in the past decade of software development is: Good product/UX design can

This looks great, and I'm eager for more! I was initially put off by going straight to the repo's declared homepage (the Playground) and just seeing two empty text areas. The repo README isn't quite enough on its own - as you

I can verify this experience. I recently returned to Windows gaming after over a decade away, and bruises like this are a reminder of why I switched to the Mac. However, I really want to know: How/why did this happen? No, not "b
