Does it even matter if it was warmer in the past? Right here, right now, we can prove that human efforts have changed the temperature of the planet. Right here, right now, we can see the effects of that change. Increased frequency of storms, increased intensity of storms, shifting of seasons, decline in animal populations, etc. Being a "skeptic" just because you can't prove that it's currently warmer than it was 200 years ago is pointless
I'm in the US and have to make an appointment with my GP 3 months in advance. If I don't call between 10am and noon or 2pm to 4pm, I can't make an appointment. The last time I went to the hospital, I waited 5 hours before I was seen. All they did was puncture a fingernail and wrap it up. That little maneuver cost me over $1000.
It's very easy to go against the golden rule. I don't want people to scream obscenities at me so I don't. If I scream obscenities at people and am upset when people respond in kind, it's clear I violated the golden rule
Not really a fair comparison. Stripping out types is trivially fast regardless of the implementation language. The _vast_ majority of the time taken in tsc is because of the type checking
There's no reason this couldn't have been built in Unity or Unreal. You can build literally anything (within the limits of computation) in those engines.
I keep seeing people say "I have X but I haven't gotten diagnosed yet". Pet peeve: you _think_ you have ADHD but you can't state that you have ADHD without a diagnosis. If you have a piece of bone sticking out of your leg, it's fair to self-diagnose with a broken leg. Mental conditions are much harder to lock down definitively, especially because ADHD, autism, and bipolar all share similar symptoms. My own personal anecdata is that the people I've known who suspected they had ADHD more often than not did but they (myself included) still needed a diagnosis before stating it as a matter of fact
It's really bizarre. From my perspective, comments on HN are usually at least slightly better reasoned than other social sites. But this thread is absolutely crawling with comments flat out denying the science
Looks really cool! One thing I'm not clear on from the docs: does it support ignoring changes to some files for "real" commits? For example, a repo at work has a file used for mocking up feature flags. The file is tracked but it's encouraged to edit it when testing things, just don't commit your changes. If I'm not mistaken, I'd have to remember to undo changes to that file before "describing" the commit. Is that right?
The difference is that high level languages actually bring a level of abstraction not present in assembly. Tailwind does not exist on a higher level of abstraction. It's at the same level but written in a different vernacular
I'm not going to argue with you. You can choose to believe that you're correct but your definition does not align with the established definition of the term. I'm not even religious so I don't have a horse in this race.
I don't know what I did to get so lucky. I'm on Ubuntu and have the following versions: cli@3.13.0, protonvpn-nm-lib@3.14, proton-client@0.7.1
I've even written a couple of tools that manage my connection through the CLI automatically and it all Just Works. The only issue I ever had was when I had to force shutdown my machine for an unrelated reason and I didn't have an internet connection until I opened and closed Proton VPN. I'm sure someone smarter than me could have just reset the interface they were using or something
I think your vocabulary is out of date. Nerd and geek are synonyms in common tongue and neither carry much weight to them anymore. You like Marvel? You're a nerd. Ignore that they're one of the most successful brands in the world now
Twitter has a built in notification system. People can subscribe to get alerts from it. Theoretically people can do that with RSS but, let's be honest, most people don't use RSS. I saw in another comment that they do have an RSS feed though if that's your cup of tea
This whole thread has turned into a massive quagmire. To all of the people saying users should have the right to interact with whatever they want, why does the owner of the server not get any rights about what content passes through their box? If you disagree with the admin, setup your own server. There are even services now that will spin it up and keep it online for you
I really wish I understood this response. I've played with ChatGPT a good bit and it's very impressive but more often than not it feels like a nice skin on top of Wikipedia. It doesn't do any actual reasoning so I can't drill in to topics to the depth that I want and it's wrong often enough that if I'm working on anything of any consequence, I have to go find other information later to validate it
Again, that's not Node. It's JavaScript. You experience the same typing issues in any environment which runs JS (browser, embedded system, etc.).
If you want a good type system then you need to change languages and treat JavaScript as a compilation target. That's what most "JavaScript" professionals have been doing for years. Install the TypeScript compiler and a single dependency to give you Node-specific types and you're set
Poor typing isn't a Node issue, it's a JavaScript issue. Use TypeScript, install @types/node, and you're ready to go. The rest of what you say is true. Although I actually do enjoy using Node for quick one-off scripts and small dev tools
I worked on two different projects that were going fine until someone decided we needed Mongo. The bugs piled up and the projects were dying when I left
What kills me about it is I can't find a way to keep my other monitors from blacking out. I usually have at least two screens, I would love to dedicate one completely to code while leaving the other in normal mode for documentation, references, etc.
