Keep in mind as a freelancer you have to make about for $2.50 for every $1 a salaried person makes, as you're on the hook for 100% of taxes, health care, business expenses, etc.
Yeah, it's closer to 1.5x. Most companies budget total comp at 150% of salary.

Do you work with a large team? There is no correct answer for formatting for a team, there is only correct answer for individual person. The line limit 80/120/160 will work for certain people with their setup, but not others. Stuff like using a ultrawide screen with two columns, or code on laptop screen with single column, or code with half screen code editor and half screen browser, etc, there are endless mutation,…
I don't care what the limit is unless it's consistently applied. My least favorite though no limit + soft wrapping, the philosophy being the code adapts to the user, but in actuality means the file looks completely different based on your monitor and setup removing visual aid to code navigation and familiarity.

I think the real issue with prettier is that it's almost become a de facto standard. E.g. personally I don't like it at all , but do like Svelte, and Svelte's official (and AFAIK only) formatter uses prettier. Hence I use prettier for Svelte, and ditto for a few other things. So the whole "extremely opinionated, if you want configuration go somewhere else" is great in principle, when people are choosing to use the to…
Well, this bounty is just about the only way that the Prettier team could contribute to solving that issue, so rejoice. Besides that, I get the impression being a universal standard is kind of a non-issue for Prettier: - If it was widespread, but highly configurable, that increases friction when switching projects, because there will be tiny formatting differences everywhere - If it was not widespread, it would not b…

Is the 2.50:1 just a broad estimate or based on something? When I was doing pricing for service contracts it was usually around 1.50:1 burdened billing rate vs direct labor (income)

many things are more expensive when you don't work at a company - for example the health care for a marginal employee at GE is a lot cheaper than you'll get for yourself. I always used 2x, but probably 2.5x is a sensible way to think about it in a patio11 "charge more than you think you should" mold.
This is less true following the Affordable Care Act than it used to be. The unsubsidised marketplace rate for my Kaiser health insurance seems fairly close to what I pay for COBRA from my former big tech employer.

#246I'm still salty that all my eslint plugins decided to remove perfectly fine linters in lieu of Prettier. I find Prettier to be way too heavy handed and hard to reason about, and yet another tool that I never asked for...

#247when i'm in the thick of it working on a piece of code, writing some logic and have everything laid out the way that makes sense to me and then i hit cmd + s and BOOM all the lines get shifted and wrapped and i'm ripped out of my flow i wondering what the heck it is i'm now staring at. sometimes i disable prettier on save and just run it on a pre-commit hook because at that point who cares that the code is unreadable to me.

If it was widespread but slightly more configurable, how would that increase friction? It’s still always setup to run automatically and transform your input to the output. The whole point of it is you don’t have to think about its rules, just code and it will do the rest.

#250While it's always great to see performance gains, my largest pain point with prettier was never performance. Instead my only gripe with prettier is the "line wrapping noise" it creates, illustrated here by Anthony Fu: https://antfu.me/posts/why-not-prettier#the-line-wrapping-no... Would it be realistic to expect a solution for this issue now that "prettier needs to step up it's game"?
