Coding is very personal and fashion driven. Everyone's brain work different. It's all random events that forms our thinking. A software project is too big when you can no longer see the full picture - then you should break it down

Being able to develop with instant feedback and without any tooling is pure joy. Just open a simple text editor and within minutes you have something up and running on your own computer without having to install anything. Then when you want

I tell my kids to not share any personal information online, never use their real name or birth date, and don't trust random people on the internet. And they wouln't even think about posting images of themselves.

It usually take a few years for the battery to swell, but it will happen. I have a phone as GSM modem to send and recieve SMS for automatic tasks. I've had 3/3 batteries on two different phones swell so far.

Does anyone have any recommendation on software that can analyses text messages and then tell if two users are the same person? The use case is for competitive gaming where a player can get a major advantage by using several accounts. So th

You should save your deps in your SCM! Microsoft is giving away ownership to existing packages if you tell them you will use it for a TypeScript project.

When making my own text editor the text rendering was the bottleneck. I used web canvas fillText for text rendering. Tried to make my own text render using bitmaps but couldn't beat the "native" text rendering. So I wonder if

It would be interesting to compare this technique with native text rendering. How many FPS can you get when rendering a full screen of text?

It doesn't have to be difficult, for example when developing user interfaces I have a secret key combo for triggering the latest test, and another for running all tests. And I make mock functions that will trigger user interaction auto

There will always be edge cases, and yes they will make the code more complicated, but what really helps is automatic testing to make sure those edge cases don't break when making changes.

I'm thinking versioning. 9.9, 9.10, 9.11 etc because in my native language we use the comma, for decimal separation 9,11 9,22 9,90

was kinda hoping for a open source game when I saw the Github link, but it's just a zip download with an .exe If you are thinking of open sourcing, it can still be a good idea because users will pay for the convenience of not having to

I think this is a great license as it allows you to download the code, make modifications, create "pull requests", etc, but you are not allowed to compete, or distribute it with a virus baked in. That way the maintainers have full

then you have to deal with cache invalidation, you need to have triggers in all places that change the look of the menu, for example when you install a new program, change the OS language, etc.

I've also made an editor/IDE from scratch and it is painful, for example implementing text rendering and Unicode support (emojis) is a PITA and takes a lot of optimization if you want below 1ms screen of text rendering. I however

When making my own editor I found one place where I wanted to have sound: When searching, and the search has reached the end - I added an auidble beep as well as a shaking effect.

The mystical creature - the URL - is a link to a resource that doesn't have to be static, it's only the URL that is static. eg. the content might change. So you might want to have the program revisit the resource once in a while t

You should add some screenshots or video to the Readme, I'm too lazy to build it just to experience it.

I often test web sites on some random port before going live, and at times the customer calls and say "nice work" because they have found their site in Google search. So one of the biggest source for these scans are Google crawler

not caring as in, not caring if you get rejected. Not caring what others think when you peruse what makes you happy.

If it's extremely basic stuff and they've spent their entire life working on it, why did the two teams find different results? Thinking of objects moving 10% of light speed, or even two times the speed of light away from you, is n

Did I read it wrong, or does the universe expand at 10% of speed of light!? Could that possible be why the measurements are off? A close object vs an object very far away might look like they are in different places relatively.

Gasoline is cheap, compared to inflation the gas prices are going down. Some people (Americans cought ) like to drive heavy cars that use a lot of gas. Instead of taxing gas you could tax gas tools depending on how much they pollute, in or

Sanity checks in programming are underrated, not only are they cheap performance vice, they catch bugs early that would otherwise poison the state.
