I've worked in projects where change was expected, so a policy of strict integration testing was introduced - test that treat the system as a black box and aren't aware of its inte…

Please don't write your own. Last time I checked there was just an astounding number of static site generators in every imaginable technology. Why do people write & publish this th…

People here have trouble with names, but for a Slavic language speaker like myself, the names are one of the best parts. Even if I don't speak Russian, names like "Razkolnikov" ooz…

Indeed - I'll take "try, don't be afraid to fail" over "oh just stop, you're embarrassing yourself" any day. You will embarrass yourself.. what are we, 13 again?

First let me say that any corruption admitted to in those recordings should be prosecuted immediately, no question about it. But really, the admissions were really nothing much, I'…

"Handler" can describe anything, I avoid that name like the plague in my designs, there's almost always something more appropriate that communicates more meaning Dependency injecti…

He ended up on React because it just works and doesn't change all the time. Now both my React and .NET times are some way behind me, but I'd definitely say it's the other way aroun…

Both ASCIIdoc and reStructured text are older and better (subjective, of course), yet Markdown still won. Happens sometimes, nothing to see, I've moved on (with just a little grumb…

Well, no. I mean something I can stick in my actual code to ensure it matches the spec, be it through validation, strongly typed interfaces, unit tests or some other mechanism. Als…

Is there a way to generate code from these specs? Perhaps via OpenAPI, Smithy, something like that?

It's no fap November, perhaps the hand will unlock itself in a few days

That is unfortunate, EU could well present itself as an example of how things can be done right. Unfortunately incompetence and/or indifference, plus lack of IT talent willing to w…

Functional cookies are fine. Even analytics is fine if you're using your own (though said own analytics must also company with GDPR personal data retention rules). What is not fine…

My wife worked in one of the national standardization organizations. She was urgently called into her boss' office: "Please be on this meeting with me, I think they will try to bri…

Ridley Scott can be terrible with stories (or picks projects with poor stories), as long as individual scenes are great. I've had trouble watching some of his work to their end, th…

Here in Ljubljana too. I wasn't even fully aware of them, doing something else, but somehow it made me check my phone and there was the news bulletin, only a couple of minutes old.…

If readability was the only criteria perhaps YAML deserves to win. For some data XML is more readable, its complexity is the bigger problem. People went all in with things like XSL…

I'm sure the other countries are watching this and considering what the US is doing with their data in its apps.

Microsoft really doesn't want anyone to reliably copy their formats. Their standard is purposefully complicated and convoluted, it was almost rejected by ISO for this reason and it…
