Not the OP, but in my experience, it's because those 60 line PRs lack a lot of context, and it's not until you see the cumulative changes across those 10 60-line PRs that you really understand how they come together to form a feat

How reliable is reversion as a metric? In my experience, the problem with 50 line PRs (that aren't just making a quick adjustment to something, but actually trying to build new functionality in sets of 50 line PRs) is that each change

Not really, I don't think. I hear a lot of people saying that you can inspect the source if you follow steps X, Y, and Z, but that's not a one time thing. Each time the extension is updated you have to do a full audit. You can ins

I don't know the GP's intention, but I'm guessing it's that MS's actual products are all software (Windows, Office, etc) and the allure is that they can be sold on/come packaged with relatively cheap and availa

This feels like a different situation than the article author. My impression is that they were concentrating on services where mobile is just one point of access, but make sense in any scenario. Stuff like social networks, dating apps, redd

I don't know how much of this is actually a problem with the shareholder model (though I hate it). From what I understand, the whole "legal obligation to shareholders" thing isn't actually a real thing. What's more

Wouldn't the desired alternative be to have adequately wealthy, good quality of life farmers? Why do you start from the position that farming is undesirable, and extrapolate that people shouldn't farm? Why not examine the barriers

> That is the owner of the tractors chooses to upload that data because they get value from it. Because John Deere is the best provider of this value, or because John Deere is the only provider of this value?

I'd love it if instead of saying "The following story is based on true events", they were obligated to say "The following story is based on true events, and has been modified for your entertainment".

I'm pretty sure your right. The math here assumes an equal amount of people learn it each day, but in reality it's weight towards infants, toddlers, children, teens, etc that haven't come across that info yet. But that doesn&

I guess the podcast element would benefit from some framing early in the podcast: Will the conversation that follows be an introduction to the guest's body of work, or a deep dive and reflection for people already familiar?

It's also not representative of the quantity of stolen cargo. Even if it's 5% of thefts, that 5% could be responsible for 60% of stolen cargo.

I think the point being made is that you spent a lot of your opening post talking Git, and lead with that bit, rather than with Diversion. What makes Diversion different is added in the end, after you've spent time trying to convince

Would you say templaters like Vue and Angular, with the HTML additions of `v-for`, `@click`, etc., are a library in a similar way to HTMX? If so, is the differentiation then just setting apart HTMX, Vue, etc from JSX and other JS-in-HTML ap

Yeah, but nothing he said supports the idea of having rules applied automatically unless they configure rubocop. Everything he said supports an opt-in methodology (and maybe it will be, by requiring a flag when starting a new project), bu

Does it really, though? How much time do you actually lose to having to sometimes read "reduce" and sometimes read "inject"? I've heard these arguments a hundred times, and not once did I feel like the underlying se

True, but the purpose of schools isn't the immediate problems/outcomes. It's the long term outcomes of having an educated society. We could argue about whether the schooling system is sufficiently meeting those long term goal

But how does the hacker get the DNA data? A feature to find relatives is one thing, exposing all those relative's DNA to the current user is another thing entirely. All the math would be done on the backend, not exposed to the end user

They may not have meant weakest in the sense of "least valid", but rather "least likely to change minds". One of my cats gets freaked out by fireworks and I'd love to see a cessation of the tradition, but I fully ac

He definitely could, but I imagine his immediate goal is to manage expectations, and making sure no one is disappointed. Leaving it as he did, he's open to do anything he wants: upload monthly, upload in indeterminate times, never uplo

I'm somewhat at a loss as to what point you're trying to make. Can you clarify what you consider to be E2E tests, and what you consider to be unit tests, with examples?

by ysavir 3y ago
The end user isn't exposed to it. The flakiness comes from needing an automated browser interaction acting against a page with changing input. If your page is static, sure, the E2E test is probably straightforward and quick. But the mo

by ysavir 3y ago
E2E is not a replacement for unit tests. E2E tests are more difficult to write, as they can require a lot of setup to get all the exact scenario needed for each piece of functionality we need to test, they tend to be flaky, they can be very

Wish I did, but here you're at the algorithm's mercy, unfortunately. One possibility is subbing/accruing watch time on channels that you find provide you the right value, so that the algorithm might recommend similar channels
