I'm not familiar with MobX, but I am a big fan of Jotai ( https://jotai.pmnd.rs/ ). It is a spiritual offshoot of Facebook's experimental(?) Recoil library. It is a bottom up appro…

It looks nice and I can see why someone used to VS Code's GitLens would like to bring this over, it seems really seamless. Personally, as a long-time magit user, I'm not sure I see…

Personally, I agree that base Emacs is not ideal for most users. Ultra-customizers will feel out home, but the typical dev will not. On the other hand, I am a huge proponent of Spa…

I agree that TypeScript leaves something to be desired, but it is far and away a better alternative to pure JS. TS may not be total, but it comes close enough to get the job done f…

In practice, the latter scenario seems rampant, at least IME.

Curious to know what kind of marketing efforts you took for these if any? Any marketing budget to speak of? They look like really well done apps, congrats on (kind of) exiting the …

I've used that kind of information throughout my life as a marker to help me determine when it's time for me to move on to the next "stage" of development of my skill. It is simila…

I've always enjoyed the oatmeal's comics. What is your reason for referring to him as an idiot?

I hadn't considered the transparent moderation logs before but that's a great idea, so props to lobste.rs for that. Not sure that I've seen Aether before either, I'll have to check…

Well that would be a start but I think it's pretty obvious you would want to base subscribers' voting power on duration of subscription, community involvement/contribution, their s…

I have long held the position that the role of subreddit moderator should be elected by their respective communities rather than handed over to the first person to grab the namespa…

Would highly recommend Tailwind if you don't like the boxed-in nature of most frameworks. Tailwind is more of a design system than a CSS framework. It simply gives you guidance on …

With maxed out overclocking on all cores, I only needed six.

I can attest to this method. Similarly to the GP, at some point in my early teens while swimming at a small lake, I decided to try swimming across the lake (more of a cove) and bac…

r/programmingcirclejerk would have a field day with it, that's for certain.

Maybe a little embarrassingly, but I've tried to read it a couple of times and usually bailed around chapter 3 or so due to boredom. I think I know the type of wordiness you're ref…

> Some people might be offended or sensitive to direct questions, but that's for them to work through with their therapist. It's a fair position to take, but in some cases where su…

Ugh, you're right, compassion gets the better of me yet again. To be honest, her brave stance has really made me feel so lucky for the way I was able to live my 16th year. Hard man…

Agreed. The line ought to be drawn at personal attacks against her. She's 16, a child, personally attacking her is disgusting behavior. By that same token, I also don't care what a…

> If F# or rust or haskell really was quicker and more effective in a prototyping environment as well as when writing production hardened code, programmers would likely eventually …

There's a joke about monoids and semigroups in here somewhere but my lack of a college education is hindering me.

I highly recommend Ramez Naam's Nexus Trilogy.[1] I think Naam's take on the genre hits a lot of the bullet points others in the thread have cited as desirable characteristics in t…

You saw your chance and you took it. And for that, I respect you.

By a minimum of about 33.9 million miles, yes.
