I working on a project using tauri with htmx. I know a bit uncommon. But the backend part use axum and htmx. No Js/Ts UI. It's fast, reliable and it work well. Plus its easy to sha…

Even if its cumbersome, it's still a win-win for them to use it. The outlook app will be native desktop and mobile (except linux for now). Plus it will give the maui project more c…

swift and kotlin are slowly getting there.

You must break down the part that led to that reputation. Electron uses its own renderer (chrome). Meaning it can't share memory with the os browser and make download size way bigg…

Kotlin -> Jetpack Compose > Native Android, Native iOS (KMM) and soon Desktop+Web (Compose Multiplatform)

Are you looking at the base M1, the pro or the max? Because the M1 Max is not less than half https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/compare/11136167?baseli...

To be more accurate, it needs one variable. - Butt(s) per feature That includes defects, It's one of many reasons I like new compiled/vm languages like Go, Swift, Nim F#. You got t…

I didn't read the NY Times articles since it's paywalled. But your translation is inaccurate. it would be more something like: "They were decided to occupy France like an enemy ter…

for my work, vscode take between 1.5 to 2.5gb. Nothing has change since start using it 4 years ago, and my experience is consistent with my coworkers. I keep using it because it 'f…

> just badly written. Ins't the easy answer. Each time a dev want to ignore valid comments. I have the following electron app running: Spotify, Figma, VS Code, Discord, Slack. They…

Also electron require multiple node backend services which each eat memory like crazy (based on electron app I use). Have one, real Multithreaded +, more efficient backend, will re…

Yes, you're 100% right and I hear you. I really do like Nim, but suggesting it to do WebAssembly out of the box could be deceiving and do no good. The project is currently in the h…

yes but it mostly undocumented, unsupported and trouble assured. I tried several time and always got stuck somewhere. Rust that has the reputation to be hard, but is way simpler an…

because the 15x programmer that is slowed down to 1.3x because the 50x added 80x of technical debt will leave the company. So the company will only have 50x that leave as soon as t…

Not sure if you are sarcastic or not. But if you look at how you develop windows app (vb, winforms, wpf, uwp and now maui) or Mac/iOS (from mvc, mvvm, and now mvu) and not forgetti…

Like you said reactive programming and OO are not exclusive. And if you look how you do React now with useState, useEffect and all. It's exactly a reproduction of OO, but inside a …

The equivalent is fable [1]. The major difference I would say, is that you are required to use botnet alongside of node. (dotnet to compile to JS, then node to bundle with wepback …

It's all political. If the government fight hard, then lose, the opposing party will blame them for that and most likely make them win the next election. If they just do a marketin…

This is a personal conclusion having work in both, some US and some Canadian based companies. What I realized, the reason we are pay less in Canada, is caused by our perceived valu…

On macOs, it's the same shortcuts as Emacs. Except the `ctrl+x+[other]` uses the command key. IMO its significantly superior for programming. It's also the reason there is less key…

I did the switch for my personal laptop when Apple added the touchbar. Telling myself about the same reasons plus the price tag. I already had a Windows Desktop for game, and for t…

Adobe will make it happen and docker too. That's just a question of time. As oppose to Microsoft, Apple is taking to switch to arm seriously. Adobe currently has app running native…

why not go all the way with fable + elmish for the Frontend?

Since Apple is announcing the new Macs with M1 SoC today, I'm wondering if it will support it from day 1 or we will have to wait?! edit: I guess I can't read. `We expect that Apple…

You can use f# with fable on the javascript ecosystem. And it's quite nice. Better than TS imo. and now with .net core, its a better cross platform framework. also, you can target …
