Discussing is obviously fine. But sometimes some innocent blog posts get criticised as if they claimed that they solved world hunger. They don't. They are often just some random thought in a rarely-read blog. Nobody…
It takes more than a few minutes, yes. But this one-time investment will prevent the next 10 migration-related bugs that he'll otherwise blog about. Grab some representative data from production and keep feeding that…
Pre-populate the db.
Tbf, it's not their fault it made it to the HN front page. Are we going to criticise every little innocent blog post just because somebody liked it, submitted it to HN and it got enough upvotes?
> This wasn’t caught by the existing test suite (even though it runs almost 200 end-to-end tests), because it always starts from an empty database, applies all migrations and only then runs the test code. Isn't that…
Twice a year? That's only recommended by dentists in north america because most insurances cover it because of lobby pressure. Every 1-2 years fully suffices, depending on your risk profile (smoker, genetics, ...).…
Or just not consume any water.
As a random US citizen, chances are high though that you voted Trump and are ok with all this nonsense. So, should be ok?
As a European who has lived in both countries I can only laugh at this. From our perspective, US and Canada are 99% identical, culturally.
It's also restricting the freedom of communities if you ban them from adding fluoride to their water if they like to. This ban is anti-freedom. (Just like forcing them could be argued to be, even though that's what you…
"Receive messages on Signal via a simple API. Perfect for notifications and alerts." is not "how it works" but "how you use it". This is "hacker news". A hacker is typically interested in how something works (under the…
"... seeking the truth ..." Hahaha, ha ha, ha... Maybe more accurate to say "spreading my truth".
You built this? Would you like to comment what your future plans are? Your self-description is "entrepreneur love for automation". Is it fair to assume that if this takes off then you are planning to introduce paid…
Who is behind this and how does it work? Why is this information not present on the front page? And why does somebody who thinks people would start using and relying on it not immediately understand that that's…

That code-gen would be fantastic. I have commercial applications for this, so I'll keep an eye on your space.

It's the exact opposite of math. Math postulates a bunch of axioms and then studies what follows from them. Natural science observes the world and tries to retroactively discover what laws could describe what we're…
It's been there in programming from essentially the first day too. People skip the theory and just get hacking. Otherwise we'd all be writing Haskell now. Or rather we'd not be writing anything since a real compiler…
In my experience, even if people knew, they just don't care. Most people I talk to about this, tech and non-tech folk have an attitude with a.mix of "you can't escape this anyway, so might as well embrace it" and…

Prominent definitely. But researcher? Does he actually research anything? He just claims lots of things. He is half-way to being a fiction author, just that he would never acknowledge that.
That all may be the case. But these two arguments are working against each other. One is to work on a super low spec machine because things were really expensive and the tech scrap in Mexico at the time just didn't have…
