The emdash and ellipsis used to be my bread and butter. I just hope the LLMs don’t come for parenthesis for aside comments.

You could probably combat this somewhat with a skill that references to examples of the code you don't want and the code you do. And then each time you tell it to correct the code …

I can totally understand where you are coming from with this comment. It does feel a bit frustrating that people are rediscovering things that were written in books 30/40/50 years …

I think that might be the key here. All those small micro decisions, discussions, and dead ends can be recorded and captured by the AI. If you do something that doesn’t make sense …

The three most common things I think about when coding are DAGs, State Machines and parsing. The latter two come up all the time in regexps which I probably write at least once a d…

A lot of the time they are selling themselves as influencers on the subject. It’s often a way to get views or attention that they can use in the future.

I love having generated code in the same repo as the generator because with every commit I can regenerate the code and compare it to make sure it stays in sync. Then it forms somet…

I wonder if the more we use LLMs the more our written patterns will begin to match them. Those of us who work with them the most are likely to be affected earliest.

I don’t know too much about about the TS ecosystem but do these new systems you talk about do it via a “Smart Constructor”? That is the pattern I typically use to solve this proble…

I once found a confirmed bug in SQLite one time, and it’s the highlight of all my OSS bug reports. Interestingly enough I found it while fuzz testing a query builder and cross test…

Has anyone ever implemented a schema where you define a view to return the latest instance of each resource, and it maps INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE to an append only table underneat…

Its usually leadership who are the problem if a whole department is failing. If they started firing from the top down they'd eventually reach competent people who stayed with the d…

I think the point the GP message is making is that, prior to review/merge you extract atomic commits from your WIP that tell a clear, concise story of how the change was made. The …

This might be a dumb question, but is it possible to take something like WASM and make it run on HVM?

I mentally change schema to namespace when thinking about the postgresql feature.

If it helps anyone, at work, I open sourced the UUID v7 postgresql function that I wrote: https://github.com/Betterment/postgresql-uuid-generate-v7 We've seen some amazing benefits…

> billionaires tend to get more hate because they simply have more negative impact Not just billionaires, the specific type of billionaire that seeks out fame. There are plenty of …

Also, why don't they share the lists with each other? They don't need government help to do this. If there are privacy issues then they could just share a list of hashes and if som…

Reading this code I can't help but try to evaluate it in my head. Question: is there a bug for the assignment of party_not_at_fault? Would you want party2 to be selected if the con…

This is where you'd choose the .gif version hoping it was interlaced.

My current team does it, and it is so enjoyable. We practice atomic commits that change only one thing, and in one way. We separate Fix, Refactor, Change, Add, Move and Remove comm…

Its interesting that Netflix built their systems in a way that assumes the underlying platform is unstable. With Chaos Monkey and other systems they made sure things are resilient …

I think the next generation of ORMs will be built on top of this approach. Being able to query and receive an entire object graph in a single round trip has changed how we develop …

Your comment is being downvoted, but IME working at a few startups where the owner went from making 2M to 10M, then 50 and 100M+ a year I rarely saw founders who had a good work/li…

One idea might be to focus on trying to convert monthly subscribers to yearly. You could offer a subset of monthly subscribers a one-time upgrade to a yearly subscription at a pror…
