I actually do and my critique is directed at function components which seems to be the standard nowadays.

So it makes sense because there's a fancy name for it? For a moment let's just imagine you are inventing a brand new UI framework. You obviously want to have components in it. So h…

I never get this take. A react component is not just a function, it's a function plus a magically injected context that is accessed through hooks which requires all kinds of guaran…

Could you elaborate why you dislike lifecycle methods? I read this take a lot and I use mainly angular but did some smaller projects with react class components and with function c…

I'd say on average about 50% faster but it really depends on the task at hand. On problems that can be isolated pretty well like a new feature that is relatively isolated (for exam…

That's awesome! I feel similar, I drew a lot back in the days because growing up in a small town I was bored so often. I did portrait art only but today I struggle because I just d…

I once wrote a formatter for powerquery that's still in use today. It's a much simpler language and I took a simpler approach. It was a really fun problem to solve.

Well since it's my own parser I support both inline and line ending comments. So I guess it's technically jsonc (json with comments) but whatever really. Clarification: when speaki…

I tried to use toml in as config format for the app I am building at my day job. I ditched it for json because it's representation is not unambiguous, meaning the same object tree …

Really interesting! I'm very much interested in pychedelic graphics. I played around with shadertoy a little bit maybe I should give it another go. For anyone interested I made som…

This is mostly how I indent my code. I don't know why so many people hate it. We have huge screens and spacing conveys structure so I use spacing when appropriate, like a ')' in it…

I disagree. You can just postMessage to communicate with the service worker and therefore I imagine the code using broadcast channel to be actually quite similar. About debugging, …

This sounds like a good use case for using a service worker. All tabs talk to the service worker and the worker is the single instance that talks to the backend and can use only on…

I tried to use vscode c# devkit but it is horribly unstable and has severe bugs that make it unusable for my projects. But I'm really happy with vscode + omnisharp. I never used ri…

I use vscode (with omnisharp not c# devkit) for c# every day. Did you try it out?

Didn't day say in their incident report that they have a batched rollout strategy for software updates but this was a config update and the update path for configs does not have su…

There's a lot of things the file explorer needs. Git is not one of them.

Maybe not the most useful thing, but certainly useful and the coolest thing I built is a code formatter for the m language (also known as powerquery). At the time there was only da…

Good to hear that I'm not the only one thinking that. I read a lot of their code for one of my pet projects and I thought that maybe it's me that doesn't get it because I don't wri…

I'm curious what are your use cases for which vs code is not suitable? I'm on windows and I work everyday in c# on the backend and I use vscode almost exclusively because I'm reall…
