Will they start to build proper consumer profiles now and stop recommending the same thing I've just bought over and over ?

Like docker

indeed :O

here are the VT100 ansi escape codes: https://espterm.github.io/docs/VT100%20escape%20codes.html

Bold, Underline, Double height, double width, etc... are all there. VT100, from 1978.

Isnt the while shtick of the ad industry that personalized ads enhance your experience ?

Inst Facebook timeline carefully curated based on that ?

Great. But I have been programming since about Math.min(Math.max(n, 1900), 1985 - 1)

Money and hierarchy

how can I download MDN ?

yes

luckily WebAssembly is stream compiled while data is being fetched in parallel; unlike JS it does not need to load the whole file to start working on it :)

Tailwindcss is getting quite big.i would dare to say mainstream even.

love the ending about not being gpt3 generated :) nice touch

i don't agree for the most part. perl is cool :)

how much better can it be than doing

`import module from './crate/Cargo.toml'`

from Svelte directly, and get Hot Module Reloading for free ?

> "Is there a Rust + wasm version of Svelte yet?"

Here is a Svelte starter template for Rust (webasm) + Svelte:

no mention of web assembly, how is Haskell support for it ?

yeah this is ripe for survivorship bias

adobe, microsoft, et al. also faked the fix and incorrectly fixed it by exporting into other formats in a broken way. locking in makes sense from a VC point of view.

from my point of view the only way to guarantee is to use software that provides open file formats and develops their features around those open formats. inkscape and sketch seem to be doing this

sketch file is an open format[0]. figma will lock you in. there is no export project feature in figma

https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038006274-Files-...

that is why it is so easy to migrate into figma from sketch, and impossible to migrate away from figma into anything else...

could you expand on this? what is the problem with the defaults on Unity?

didn't knew about this one... let me check it and get back to you soon :)

thank you for this

everything is a triviality if taken sufficiently out of scope

or Ruby, or Haskell, or elixir... Rust so happens to appeal the front-end crowd as much as the backend people and they are leveraging those windows of opportunity much better than any other language or community. Wasm bindgen is a bliss of fresh air, it even works very well with TypeScript.

Personally I find it great that Facebook allows this kind of open speech and open approach from their employees (both in the OP post but also in Abramov stance).

I hope one day this work openness will surface to be seen on their products as well.

I have the new 16 MBP and love the touch bar. I find it much easier to change brightness/sound (place the finger and drag); I find it much easier to control apps, like music, safari, and all, and the habituation period was shorter than with the keys back in the day (when i started using macs).

I would love to be able to easily customize the touch bar though, the author mentions BetterTouchTool, looks good, might be worth it.

Like the author I also have some problems with Catalina: the subtle hangs drive me nuts, the bugs with the True Tone going pale, the gpu's going crazy just because they want

PS: Apple - please consider improving your AirPlay video support or doing some other protocol for it. It sucks having to use cables for even HDMI video playback on a secondary screen. (or place back the display port / HDMI entrance)

Somehow reminded me of the original Hacker Test https://www.elfqrin.com/hackertest.php

No info about Safari

a common misconception is that TypeScript[TS] will provide runtime safety; it won't unless you specifically add functions for it, like the type casts presented in the article.

The typecast approach presented in the article can be combined with TS to provide runtime type safety; They are not entirely opposite/alternative approaches but complementary.

VR seems to be catching on. Is the experience that much better than a normal screen?

yes, I feel the same way, especially in data/scientific oriented articles. Unfortunately, most data journalists are writers first and scientists second, which kind of biases the way things are presented in written form.

in literature "exponentially" can be used in a lot of ways that are appropriate but not mathematically correct. you can use it as a euphemism, as a metaphor, as an adjective, like a loose comparator, etc... everything is valid.

the same applies to a lot of other mathematical concepts (i.e. the double negative, etc...)
