That abstraction is another layer though. And additional layers are additional complexity. So, if you add another layer, the software is less simple than before. You might need to …

"I think now caching is probably best understood as a tool for making software simpler" - that's cute. Caching might be beneficial for many cases, but if it doesn't do one thing th…

Not far. Just show all changes. Like the blog article already states, for many projects you already have code formatters, so changes in format usually don’t happen a lot - and if t…

This is default on Mac if you use the Trackpad. Just to be sure I just tested with "man ls", which is also used in the example video. If I use my keyboard, I prefer to not have smo…

You're right. But this only means that it won't be possible that you use the same template for different slots. Personally, I don't remember I ever needed that. Actually, most temp…

Here's a blog post which goes more into detail: https://kilb.tech/golang-templates

The same is still possible in PHP to include HTML code into you PHP files. But it's rarely still being done like this. It's considered good practise to separate your PHP (business)…

Both is possible. See here an example how to implement use case 2: https://github.com/ckilb/golang-layout-tpl-example I don't like Go's template engine too much, I find it a bit cu…

Please, please don't mix up ORMs with ActiveRecords. ActiveRecords are one way to implement an ORM, but it's not the only way. I think many say they hate ORMs when they actually me…

No, that would be crazy. Ofc I want syntax highlighting. There's a bug in the newest version which removes syntax highlighting. I thought it's more common, so I understand that pro…

Use human readable dates: Every blog post should include a human readable date. In fact, this extends to almost anything online and even offline. Timestamps are hard to read. Use d…

Syntax highlighting? Aaaaaand... it's gone!

Sooo deeeep. Woooow!

There are so many unknowns and unknown unknowns in medical sciense, especially regarding the human body. Did evolution really keep two kidneys if you actually just need one? I doub…

Is there still demand? Is it better paid? There's a German website where you can compare average hourly rates for different programming languages and according to this COBOL develo…

Of course we can expect errors, I don't doubt that. That's what I mean with "wrong". But still, how should the author consider that if he doesn't know about the precision nor quant…

How would you consider that? The article states that all the calculations were based on the ANSUR-II dataset. If the values in that dataset were wrong, of course the results of the…

Don't re-use using inheritance, but dependency injection. A (well-tested) software component that get's dependency-injected should get considered "final". If it makes sense to adju…

Even if you don't need or want to deploy daily, your software should be continous deliverable.

Well, the SQL is always somewhere. If you use an ORM library, even if you use ActiveRecord, you will find some SQL in it. In the end, it always translates to SQL. In the blogpost, …

It's a pattern where a single object (the "active record") not only represents a single database row, but also usually is responsible for saving/inserting data into the database (v…

there is a search, yes. but it's not working as good (and simple) as the search in VsCode... Just an example... search for "Scrolling speed" and you won't get any result. But if yo…

All the default* options belong to the system settings, not to the specific app. The system delegates specific functionality to a corresponding app. Still, I admit that the whole s…

it's not always as simple as that. what if you once implemented some facade method to get data from database like "findProductById" and you comment it with "finds a product from da…

If code is wrong or out of date, the program will fail or stop doing that it's supposed to do. If comments are wrong or out of date, it will mislead the developer or at least confu…
