Don't get me started on the "templating" for Twitter Articles, it doesn't even support markdown...

I bet subs are not their main source of revenue (by far), big cos are throwing big dollars to them, offering things like this entrenches these corps more into their products (makes it harder to just switch to OpenAI if your entire infra is built on top of their products)

This movement is brilliant for them

I have rejected a proposal of introducing a mapping library, LLMs can do mapping code very very easily with almost no downsides

ORMs would be my next battle, but SQL injection could become an issue if not treated carefully, so I would still consider libraries like SQLDelight or other SQL first libraries

You just have to duplicate things a bit more, but with the help of LLMs building the queries is very simple and extending them even easier

I spend around 30%, if not more of my work time on Slack (collaborating with others, solving customer issues, searching, documenting)

I want that experience to be good, and not using a subpar tool like (Teams, IRC etc)

As a rule of thumb, I want to use the best tool available for the job, IntelliJ for the IDE, the best coding model (whatever that is at the time), the best Video call tool, the best monitor, the best keyboard etc

Although best is usually subjective, in some of this cases what is "best" is objectively clear, in some cases the gap between the best and the next one is small in others is huge. In the case of communication tools I think the difference is huge.

Is this needed to do my work? nope It makes working more pleasant? definitely yes

March - early June or Mid September - November

Avoid July and August, horrible heat and most people have left the city

Yep, those tasty formation and travel budgets are also being squeezed in the quest for profits, reducing the market size for these tech events...

Working as a contractor for a public entity, I can't think of anything that I would like to do less than that...

Always focus on PPI, some rough numbers

27” 5k (5120 x 2880) -> 218 PPI

32” 4k (3840 x 2160) -> 137.68 PPI

34” 5k (5120 x 2160) -> 163.44 PPI

39,7 5K (5120 x 2160) -> 139.97 PPI

Apple Pro Display XDR 32" 6k (6016 x 3384) -> 218 PPI

There are many taxes that are not paid on profit... VAT/sales taxes, property taxes and a big etc

ABNB creates externalities to the countries where it operates (increase rent prices), so it would make sense to tax them because of it.

And if they don't like the tax, they are free to stop operating in that country ;)

It is way easier for me to read than what you proposed in Typescript, more characters to write? sure but how many times do I have to write a piece of code and how many times do I have to read it?

I guess ultimately it depends on which language you are more familiar with...

Thanks!

You can still have senior engineers for less than 100k€ (including taxes and everything that the company have to pay for)

That’s even cheaper if you hire them as contractors

cries in climate change

The ol’ moving more logic to the backend

I see this being a trend in the coming years

Micronaut, http4k

Yes, they are a bit higher, the places that give you good tapas are usually outside of the touristy areas. In tourist areas, you will not get anything or just some olives or chips (that is not considered a tapa for most spaniards)

They sell hardware that is very competitive in price, and I thank that was one of the biggest selling points of the switch

It's seems that there are some companies sneaking price increases now that the public is used to price increases!

Don’t celebrate it yet, threads have very high click through rate, I really doubt that these are going to replace threads because they won’t dare to touch “the algorithm” after they see the decrease in interactions

You would be surprised that it may not be that different than some parts of the US (excluding NYC and SF)

Oh, if they execute the poison pill there will be consequences, just not legal ones.

Trust is a big part of stock value, if you don't trust the board is time to sell...

What makes you think that it is any different elsewhere?

I really like the idea, but I find that there is a big gap in the tooling to do this (and make it easy to review)

It would be nice to open just one PR with several sets of changes where you could provide context for each set of changes.

With GitHub you could do this by having a commit per each set of changes, but you can't add a description for each commit.

You end up having a PR that points to the previous PR, and then you have to decide if you run CI in that PR or just the last PR, and then having some merge issues. With all this hassle people usually just open a big PR with all the changes or decide against doing that small refactor (because it would have to do it in another PR and the hassle is not worth it), overall this ends up decreasing code quality in the codebase.

The thing is that Compose is becoming the de facto UI toolkit for Android, and there is A LOT of really smart people working on it (both at Google and Jetbrains).

Maybe I'm over-hyping it, but I really doubt there has been a UI toolkit with that much work behind in a long time (Maybe Cocoa and one of the last 3 iterations of UI toolkit on Windows had that many work hours, but Cocoa does not work in all OS and the Windows ones well ... :shrug:)

I was thinking that this combo can really change the native desktop development landscape, it's still too early to tell but if you can solve development speed, performance, looking good and easy deployment in one stack it would really improve over Electron based apps.

Well, I'm sure that even without that tax, the government will still receive more money than before plus all the money not spent in prisons, law enforcement and all that jazz.

I think this also should be something that other governments should take into account when taxing the newly legalized cannabis business, if you tax it too heavily from day one you may be pushing clients both clients and producers to the black market.

You use the title of the PR as a changelog item instead of every commit message.

It forces you to think a moment for a good PR title, but it is an small price to pay when it gives you a 0 extra work changelog that is good enough for semi-internal use.

One of the key features of these apps is that you only need the phone in order to make transfers, that allows you to avoid asking for the account number to anyone.

iPhone users pay the development of iOS, iphone users want to use an iPhone in part because all these third party apps.

This is just them wanting more money, and according to latest earnings they already make a lot.
