Isn't that whole point of semantic release? Minors and hotfixes allow you to release a new version for an older release (like if you released 3.7 but you found a bug present in 3.4, you can release 3.4.1 which would be newer than 3.7),

The name "serverless" doesn't mean that there are no servers. It means that, as a developer, you don't need to manage the server. It's abstracted out for you.

Agents use find+grep because it's available everywhere and without any configuration, but they would still be more efficient with LSP. Once LSPs will be more easily configurable for agents, they will use them.

Those kind of tools are futile endeavors to me. If you want to use that for unit testing, then I think it would be better to mock the calls to AWS services. That way you test only your implementation, in an environment you control. If you w

It also doesn't care about arbitrary groupings of humans (a.k.a countries). The fairest system would be for each human being to have an equal amount of pollution they are allowed to emit.

Trunk-based development fits nicely when you have a single deployment product like a SaaS and you don't need to maintain old versions of your software. You only have one prod environment. If you build a software that you distribute so

Using an LLM to generate an image of a diagram is not a good idea, but you can get really good results if you ask it to generate a diagram.io SVG (or a Miro diagram through their MCP). I sometimes ask Claude to read some code and generate a

When doing advanced terminal UI, you might at some point have to layout content inside the terminal. At some point, you might need to update the content of those boxes because the state of the underlying app has changed. At that point, refr

I don't recommend resolving actions on the server in any situation: For actions that require secret information, you would filter the actions sent to the client of any secret information and make sure the code handling the action can h

I had the same issue in AGoT:BG and I solved it by representing the state of the game as a tree. At any point of the game, the current game state is a leaf of the tree. You'd represent this kind of choice as a child node. When the user

You might be interested in the Phase abstraction of my engine. Basically you represent your board game as a tree of phases through which your game progresses in. Each node of your phase tree can contain state. At any point, your game is at

Why would you want to store the state in Git? This means that if you have a CD pipeline (triggered itself by a commit) that does `terraform deploy`, you'd need to have your CD pipeline do commit _again_ to save the changes to the TF st

Maybe it's only for me, but I've never liked this of too-smart solutions. Let people do the mistakes once and learn the correct package name, instead of relying on a hack and potentially introduce confusion later.
