Yes and the worst part of that is that I really enjoy working out my own strategies. My best RTS memories are on StarCraft 1, playing with friends in the early 2000s, and we all just were figuring it out for ourselves.
Very cool! Consider adding a wikipedia link to each card after the game is over.
Betting on AI could mean a pause on hiring junior developers while we wait to see how AI plays out, though.
Ok can you elaborate?
My intent was just to emphasize that I’m comparing Go against writing JavaScript for the Node runtime and not in the browser, that is all, but you are correct. Regarding Typescript, I actually am a big fan of it, and I…
I mostly agree with you except the simple syntax with one way of doing things. If my memory serves me, Java supports at least 2 different paradigms for concurrency, for example, maybe more. I don’t know about C#.…
Go has its fair share of flaws but I still think it hits a sweet spot that no other server side language provides. It’s faster than Node or Python, with a better type system than either. It’s got a much easier learning…
Maybe even painful for one dev once you need dependencies (virtualenv...)
I do really like the idea of going for more walks throughout my work day, and just checking in on Claude with my phone.
I'd like to see more software that amplifies local social interactions. There are apps like Meetup, but a lot of people just find it too awkward. Introverts especially do not want to meet just for the sake of meeting…
Great analogy. Although I still wonder how long we're in this phase and how ubiquitous it will be, because didn't power tools coincide with improved automation in factories eliminating manufacturing jobs?
Whenever I have to develop on Windows, I clone my repos and run neovim / docker inside of WSL, for the improved performance (versus copying / mounting files from windows host) and linux. The dev experience is actually…
I agree with item #1, but it can be mitigated somewhat with dev tools like errcheck: https://github.com/kisielk/errcheck?tab=readme-ov-file
Minimizing state simplifies the codebase but it’s a trade off. There are times the user experience is just objectively better with more state, and you have to weigh the costs. If I am filling out a very long form (or…
Yes, every time I start using some GUI software, I eventually find myself returning to markdown. I spend all day editing in VSCode -- it's nice to use the same tool (and vim keys)
