I think React has shown how UIs can be done in a better way. That's why we have Flutter, Jetpack Compose and SwiftUI now.

A well articulated paper by a great thinker. That said, switching from C++ to Go made my life so much easier and more enjoyable that I do not see myself going back to that language ever again.

The FAA doesn't require a separate night rating for the PPL. Which is kind of crazy, as it's too easy to fly into clouds at night.

The FAA written plus the flying exam are just the bare minimum to make you legal, but not safe. Buying XPlane plus some yoke and throttle quadrant is the best investment you can make when it comes to IFR. Make sure you invest in it.

I love the idea of "hands on product management", where you are both the product manager and one of the developers. The difficulty is finding a balance between passion and financial wisdom.

Austrian here, we are somewhat in between Russians and Americans, when it comes to smiling. But what I can tell you is that life is just so much better when people smile at you, even if it might not be a hundred percent genuine. My comparis

Yes, but stick and rudder skills are the easy part (I used to be a flight instructor). The hard part is everything else.

Well, at this time XPlane is better for IFR training and everything the original poster mentioned is true. But MS Flightsim is still a young product, so let's wait and see. But if I had to bet, I'd always bet on Austin Meyers and

How the hell can you let this piece of crap out to the public? Where are the regulators?

We do have a process. But it's less formal. Weekly meetings, priority lists, technical discussions, business discussions. If a problem comes up, we just talk to each other. It's easy and makes for a pleasant environment.

First of all, I'm not making the decision by myself, but discuss it with my peers before doing so. Second of all, the product owner does not command the product. We all do. At least that's how we see it here and it works out quite

The morning coffee also works great. I really do not understand why there is a need for formalism here. There is a meeting for what's planned for the week. There are the informal gatherings, like lunch. And if someone is stuck with som

Well, I enjoy talking to the front line aka sales people to hear what's going on out there. I appreciate their input. While there might be lots of stupid ideas, there are also good ones, and some times I feel like it is a reality check

No suggestions, unfortunately. The lack of a comprehensive UI component library a la PrimeReact/NG/Vue really is a showstopper. Doesn't have to be free. But component providers do not seem to care about Svelte.

I just don't get it why developers like Scrum. The whole thing was designed to give non-technical people more power over the ones who spent a lifetime honing their craftmanship. Standing around a table in the morning like assholes is n

I'm mostly doing Golang/Typescript nowadays and worked with C# in the past, but F# looks really intriguing. While I'm generally productive with Golang, I'm not really happy with the language itself. It's a bit too s

I love airplanes and certainly would jump on the opportunity to fly a military jet. What I cannot understand however is how people - lots of them Christians - can get so excited about firing a huge gun at other people...

Coming from Angular, I would love to switch to Svelte. The problem is, I need a comprehensive toolkit like PrimeNG or KendoUI. Didn't really find anything compelling for Svelte yet.

My company's product is using Linux under the hood, that's why I'll continue using it professionally. That said, I feel the M1 is too good to ignore. It is such an attractive platform for indie developers now. The Hardware is

Thanks for the info, good to know, I'll need to give it another try!

I've bought the 16GB model, mainly for getting started with Swift/SwiftUI and the Apple ecosystem. Things I've tried besides Swift/SwiftUI: Go beta 1.6 - supports M1, seems to work fine. Erlang/Elixir - couldn'

One of the problems is, that Microsoft failed to provide a decent native framework for their platform. WinRT/C++ now kind of fits the bill, but MS still doesn't seem to push it in any way. I've recently switched to the Mac an

Good question. It's an IOT project with nodes that need to work in an offline situation. The decision was made before I joined the team and there was nothing I could do about it. In the end, it doesn't really matter. Both approach

I'm in the midst of an event driven microservice project. On our first try, we've created a distributed monolith. That's why we decided to rewrite it in a more DDD driven way. I've started reading the blue book, the re

For Javascript, I recommend "You don't know JS". I've tried tons of ressources and that's the one that finally made it click.

Because compilers - apart from Pascal dialects - were quite slow. With Go, you aren't wasting time waiting for the compiler. So it feels like a script language, but gives you that extra security of a compiler.

Austrian here. I don't think they have much of a problem with the sexual aspect of the name, but while it may be funny initially, the joke really gets old after years and years of prank calls. I guess they just have had enough.

I'm doing all my work lately on Kubuntu. It's such a fantastic operating system, and very large part of what makes it so good is Dolphin.
