I understand the point you're making here, but I feel it is being made in an effort to prove hakanderyal technically wrong rather than to evaluate the practicality of single points of failure, which is what they're trying to pro

Sure, that's another viable interpretation for "clean". But the GP was pretty clear about what they meant, and it wasn't this. All the more reason to find a term that represents it factually and clearly, without being an

Eh, it can go both ways. I would consider the term "clean meat" to refer to meat grown simply, meaning naturally, so quite opposite to your intention with "clean". I understand what you're getting at, but the messag

My approach is they're free to do whatever as long as they keep out of my way. That is, they're welcome to set up webs in ceiling corners, or in hard-to-reach areas that I forget exist. But if they try setting up a web near a plac

Those are sources, but there's still no evidence that the sources are real (the first one seems to be, from a quick google, but still), that the source actually supports what ChatGPT is saying, or that ChatGPT understood the source cor

I don't think the idea is "if you need these 6 simple functions, use lodash, not vanilla JS". If you only need 6 simple functions, then writing them in house makes sense. But suppose you already have usecases for lodash'

Thanks for the links! Interesting to compare and contrast locations with this in mind. In Indiana, seems 75th percentile electricians earn about the same as 25th percentile software engineers. In Nebraska, it's 90th electricians and ~3

As a general rule, optimize for your bottlenecks . If you have a large sum of I/O and can see the latency tracked and which parts of the code are problematic, optimize those parts for execution speed. If you have frequent code changes

One avenue that people tend to ignore is to look under the hood of code you already use. I've learned an immense amount from looking at the source code of open source packages I use, and seeing how the internal code is structured, what

Should you be embarrassed by the code you wrote 15 years ago, or proud of the progress you made in those 15 years? It's all a matter of perspective, and you get to shape the type of experience you'll have.
