For me it is difficult to give good code comments just when code is written. The problem is solved, the tricky parts if any are internalized. I dont mind reading code so just documenting what the code is doing does…
Or is the past endlessly rehashed with AI generated content?
Please don't. It will just become the usual Americanized trope filled insult to the original story. Stick with Marvel to produce your generic entertainment.
Minimalist as in the README does not specify that it refers to the UI though.. If I read minimalist software I would assume a more holistic interpretation unless otherwise specified. Maybe replace minimalist with modern…
This is a rather pretentious take. Not sure I agree that a lowest-common-denominator i.e. violence and sex TV-drama counts as common culture. The setting could be whatever, it would still sell using the same tropes. I…
What is an IC? I don't recognize the acronym in this context
I have been day dreaming about a program taking a factorio blueprint and running it through a genetic algorithm to produce a compressed but still functional version. I can imagine it could produce some interesting…
A more natural way would be to arrange for people to work together in smaller groups on tasks as part of the normal work. If you provide this then I agree with the parent poster if there is a social interaction to be…
Thanks for the response, very informative, I feel it explains a lot of what I was confused about. So maybe a simplified view for me is: massive adoption of JS + frameworks, cookie cutter development, no point learning…
Yes the ads/trackers/etc is most likely a reason that a webpage cannot be completely without javascript. Two other possible reasons from the top of my head: If a web developer is hired to make a site they can probably…
I am not a front-end developer but looking at it from a distance I really don't get modern web design. Sure some sites might need fancy javascript single page features, like if your webpage is an interactive map or…
I see this as a part of the trend towards a bleak future of auto generated low quality generic content flooding the web. It already feels like it has been going on for a long time even though it has not been fully…
I had the exact same experience! I found that copying things by hand it keeps the backlog in check and avoids long running tasks.
Its not new. Its called a covey chart and is used in "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" from 1989, a highly popular self help book. (not sure if it was used in any prior work)
Another way to do it is to fix bugs and refactor old not so good code. Force yourself to understand the actual underlying logic and the problems it solve. Use your frustration to figure out a better design that code so…
> Okay, was it a bad game? Who knows, hardly anyone played it. That's the crux of what he's saying. I played it a few times when it came out. I had been looking forward to it. Unfortunately it was unbalanced with very…
If stress levels are normal usually a short walk will do. If something is really stuck in my head i complement with stashing away the work computer and having a drink on my balcony. I am not recommending it, but you…
I read it from your link. It was an interesting piece about innovation and imagination versus lack of imagination.
Yes I agree for the general case and I have seen this problem many times where management refuse to see the problem with anti-social loners holding too much of the competence in a team. It can also depends on what kind…
I agree with this comment. I see it as pragmatic thinking not to test people at this point. It is a special situation, if you show any symptom of sickness just stay at home, it should be a no-brainer. What if you cough…
What does modern mean in this context? I see this word being used a as a positive adjective a lot recently to describe rewrites etc but it is unclear to me what it actually implies
I share this sentiment. I tend to categorize cruft code in two different categories, and in most cases I have encounter both stem mostly from programmer inability rather than time constraints. The first kind is what I…
I recall hearing/reading that a lot of the time in the office is passive/suboptimal. The productivity gain is that you have the people there in standby. The gain is that the important work that do happen is not blocked…
Yes, easier if you know ruby.. sed/awk is good for munching strings in small scripts and it is also always installed on a unix system (AFAIK).
If the message is sent to a remote host then perhaps the send_no_suspend function could help. I know it is used in core parts of erlang telcom systems with several millions of users to work around performance issues…
