Some time ago I found Zed did not have undo-trees (like Emacs and Vim have, possible with plugin). I think DeltaDB is probably going to power undo-trees for Zed.

and hence i scope it's message to "clean OOP code"; simply to show that it's flawed message does not even pertain to code in general.

at bast it makes to better at "Clean(TM) OOP code". programming in general is waaaaaay bigger than what the book covers.

I'd say Clean Code is teaching many bad-practices. Too many to be recommended.

> Regex can also be horribly slow - it depends on the particular regex you are using. And the alternative approach we are comparing to.

Exactly. And the article specifically talks on restricting hardware for the China and restricting China's open source models for the west. All while leading us on with "we're all f…

Do they? Or do they accept trail reports pay for by the pharma (super expensive, hence not affordable for open source / not-patentable medicine development)

Who gets to decide what is safety? I expect some of those tests (prolly not public) will basically be "wokeness" tests or "PC correctness" tests or "western media filter" tests. Ch…

It's the economic model we live under, not technology by itself, that's the problem IMHO. Every tech gets exploited to make some richer folks more rich. Nothing new. Since the rich…

I hope this guy gets an option to inherit the FSF. But in a way that does not diminish his work on Zig.

Emacs is great for LISP-like langs. IJ is great for JVM langs. Sure one can cross-use the above, but that's harder. Still great to have an IDE agnostic Kotlin LSP!

Those in EU-office.

I was replying to the word "decay", not to the corruption situation. Probably they are related, but certainly not the same.

Is fertility so important? Maybe the other western countries are equally infertile, but just allowed many immigrants in (which counts are population expansion) that also have more …

Denmark? The Swiss? Norway? And I was in Serbia lately, and while it was not as developed as NW-EU, nobody there described it as decaying (and many said they experiences decay when…

I admire you guy keep trying. I'm also glad I do not write C++ on the daily anymore: luckily my software does not need that kind of performance characteristics.

It's worse than a farce. It's actually evil. The way "they" are pushing chat control, and how Ursula is avoiding justice (she has a huge corruption case hanging over her head but m…

Strongly typed is not a well defined term. But by most people definitions, Python certainly is NOT strongly typed. My take at a definition... Strongly typed languages make a seriou…

Signalling = markets. Capitalism is allowing the winners of the markets to make the rules that everyone has to abide by, sidestepping "democracy" with anti-democratic "lobbyism" an…

There's a really insightful book on this topic (by pretty much the name you suggested): https://www.minorcompositions.info/wp-content/uploads/2011/1...

I really liked the article. Sure maybe the title of the original article is a little clickbaity; but are article titles not supposed to be "drawing your attention"? The author is d…

Nice article... Bloat is not "since generative AI coding" new. We always had it. As the author says: > “It does sound like Facebook’s ‘move fast and break things,’ which didn’t age…

In many cases "transport encryption" would also fit that definition. E2ee is quite well established imho. The server at Hetzner (a.k.a. "someone else's computer") is NOT to be trus…

It's a definition question. E2ee means in this cases that "the server" cannot decipher the data: the keys to that are only on the client and never shared with the server. This setu…

I used Bastion before. I'd not be too happy using an interpeted language like Python (that has eval capabilities) for this kind of purpose. We used it a lot at first, but as our se…
