I haven't read any of their previous articles but I had to jump out and go through the comments here just because of how LLM-ist it felt. Right in first paragraph or two, it starte…

Isn't this a problematic idea? If you flush down herbicide without checking the results, you would risk breeding herbicide resistance in the weeds.

How would you use zod as a dev-only dependency? The whole point there is to be a parser. If you remove it from runtime then you are not parsing the production payloads, which is th…

Isn't USA famous for letting parents take out credit cards on their newborns and pushing them into debt even before they learn to walk? I recall seeing at least a few snippets of m…

> if you catch my drift Not OP but I don't. What do you mean? How do you make the kei truck an object they aren't in the business of taxing when they are, in fact, in that very bus…

I agree. I prefer Optionals over Nulls in any case. This was just a thought of what if Go went all the way instead of just halfway. In my ideal language, you would have explicit as…

Well, what happens when you write through an invalid pointer? The runtime can swallow the write or crash the program or allocate new storage and replace the pointer. Depends on the…

What if Go went all the way? Referencing a zero pointer (nil) gives you the zero value of the pointed to type. If you try to access a zero map, it tries to deference the zero point…

> Pix is already 100% surveilled And Visa and MasterCard aren't surveiled? Isn't one of their selling points that they surveil every transaction and automatically block anything su…

I thought newtonian gravity was already proven to be inaccurate with Einstein's Special Relativity (or General Relativity?) giving better results on cosmic scales (basically analog…

Aren't there companies that still use C89 for their production systems? I don't know any in particular but I have read comments here on HN implying that. Just do the same for Rust.…

Wouldn't you face the same problem as Dotnet on Windows? AFAIK, dotnet based frameworks and apps suffered from huge performance issues. It might have improved in recent times, I am…

I noticed a major problem. If I just keep writing in a single paragraph, the lines don't disappear. I was expecting it to automatically start fading the text once it reached 3-4 li…

I am not too into windows dev but I am currently using msvc at work. We are told to import a config file into the installer and it automatically selects all of the components any o…

Are you saying you want foo and bar to completely overlap? And baz and foo / bar to partially overlap? And have lots of unused bits in there too?

My internet providers (both home wifi and cellular) do this. The problem with unlimited slow speed is that it's too slow. I am sometimes unable to open the carrier's own app and pa…

The dock and monitors aren't mine actually. I got them from work. The work laptop runs windows 11 so the hardware is only tested for windows. I will buy my own stuff when I have to…

I recently switched to linux from windows. The only reason I was sticking with windows was because hoyoverse refuses to support linux. I finally decided I need some break from them…

Yeah. Certainly felt like that. On the other hand, the content does seem good. It definitely wasn't slop, even if I can't judge how useful it really was (in terms of giving a solut…

You don't. Assertions are assumptions. You don't explicitly write recovery paths for individual assumptions being wrong. Even if you wanted to, you probably wouldn't have a sensibl…

My 2c. The risk of losing one (or both) earbud is a real one. My ears don't tend to keep snug grip on the earbuds so they tend to get loose after I walk a little. With earbuds, thi…

Since the human eye is most sensitive to green, it will find errors in the green channel much easier than the others. This is why you need _more_ green data.

You are building everything in CI from scratch so theoretically, it should be completely possible to not need to scan lockfiles and get all the data from their respective sources (…

Couldn't the compiler optimise this still? Make two versions of the function, one with constant folding and one without. Then at runtime, check the value of the parameter and call …

Personally, I would prefer that the package managers keep their own lockfiles with all their metadata. A CI process (using the package managers itself) can create the SBOM for ever…
