Thanks for the feedback! 1) Click on the stopwatch timer title; you can edit it in place. Indeed, discovery of this is not great. My UX designs tends to be quite minimal. I'll try to make this more obvious. 2) I'm…
I'll do that, thanks. I've never had feedback that's indicated people wanted to know. It uses NTP's clock synchronization algorithm to get the servers' time. This is done over a websocket as it's twice as fast as a…
Shameless plug: I created https://chronograph.io back in 2014 so people can share accurate, live stopwatches and timers. Other sites "share" by putting the start epoch & duration in a url querystring; Chronograph is one…
Former Google engineer here. My team used the open source Go B-Tree implementation but I replaced it with a non-interface version over a year ago because of performance issues. The lack of generics at the time wasn't a…
Many years ago I created a site that similarly syncs time between server and clients for the purpose of sharing stopwatches & timers. I found that using a websocket connection yielded a higher precision.…
https://github.com/nicksardo/jsonpath can pull out parts of a JSON document without unmarshalling.
Indeed, it's frustrating when you're reading flat files of code. When reading foreign F#, I pull the code into Visual Studio so I can hover over the variables. It'd be quite convenient for GitHub to provide the type…
If a developer is frequently ignoring returned errors, then they have larger problems and it's their fault. Panic was not added to assist lazy programmers. Even though some API has solidified, an author could later add…
I strongly disagree. The package author means the error will be nil when the secret is 32 characters long; he doesn't mean you can completely ignore checking it. Regarding when to use panic: "The convention in the Go…
Guns don't make me feel safe. Being properly trained on how to use defensive force makes me feel safe. The error in your logic is that you're imagining yourself with a weapon, which indeed, is laughable and provably…
When a stranger is in my home at 3am while my spouse and two kids are upstairs sleeping, I won't risk judging what he/she will or will not do. Even if I were alone, I wouldn't take that chance. My intention is not to…
The use of `append` is absolutely clear. It always returns a new slice; the compiler forces you to take the value returned. What scares you is the possibility that the underlying array may be copied to a newer, larger…
Regarding toArray, the creator probably went that route to be more performant. http://jsperf.com/array-prototype-slice-call-vs-slice-call/1...
Used to use PasswordBox but then switched to 1Password - I'm much happier. Unlike my experience with PasswordBox, I can keep my data on my cloud and can export any/all my passwords. However, my 1password trial has…
I care about these things specifically because the IRS doesn't tax it. I save about 6k per year because my startup feeds me 5 lunches/3 dinners per week and pays for my public transportation. That's probably ~8k pre-tax…
I disagree with most of what you said. "exception oriented" programming is dirty. It's especially filthy when your expecting exceptions from a database for these reasons a) Returning errors to the user is asking for a…
