There was a time that SVG was going to replace flash, or something like that, but these days people just use the "simple" subset. I've seen multiple implementations for the vector graphics based on compute shaders, impressive

I would use SolidJS with SolidStart because I think technical merit is more important then something with a lot of social proof.

1. Only to the extend that this also benefits the the genes of a coerced female. 2. Maybe it is, but not sure if that needs to be a problem. 3. No, at least admittance rate of blacks vs asians would make one believe the opposite is true 4.

I used to be more into functional programming but then I found other excuses to learn mathematics. I still think about how my imperative implementation can be turned into a functional one, or the other way around, but honestly the computer

I never managed to finish my degree mainly due to dyslexia, and started working as a self-taught programmer, but I can only second this opinion. My CV doesn't get past most first screenings and even then people sort of treat you like a

Sorry, I can't find it anymore. I got it from the youtube channel by Sam Vaknin. He is a convicted coin man with NPD, so take everything he says with a grain of salt. That having said, his work tend to lack the sort of victim pandering

No, I think there is more to it then people what to admit. For example, there is a lot of comorbidity between ADHD and narcissism. There might be less social stigma about being the quirky inattentive ADHDer rather then the selfish narcissis

The IT job market is a two sided lemon market, people may lie on their CV but companies can be very abusive as well. If you don't do what OP suggests, people will not respect you. I've had five developers join my interview call to

Well, the article does not mentioned anything about second order effects of the use of fertilisers and herbicides that happened 50 years ago in another country so I am going with: No.

That is not a popular thing to say about the internets own man sticking it to the man, but I agree. I havent seen the incelesque videos, but some of his content in the last years is very high on the drama, always bickering with everyone, wh

How would Pythagoras' formula look like in your language, because that has been my problem with stack based languages in the past. Great at doing high level abstract mathematical operations, fixed points and all of that jazz, but then

It is wrong the call this a "complete misunderstanding" as the paper clearly deals with triplets and formulates a different encoding scheme for entities and relations. Ok, so it is not RDF or even hyper graphs but it is dealing wi

I agree, The story in a story in an attempt to talk over the heads of the Trisolarans is hilarious. Too bad they never learned to paint in non western perspective.

Special books for special children did an interview with a self identified sociopath that shows the same level of self awareness and openness to discuss the problem[1]. I think it is always difficult to analyse why someones does something.

How is something like this or other services like cloudflare's D1 an actual scalable solution for any serious app? Is it the pattern where you give every customer, team or "workspace" it's own database and manage this th

The funny thing about this discussing is that no one seems to care about the actual problem that is being solved by XML rather then just serialising and deserialising some data used by one piece of software. XML is mainly useful for exchang
