I think that's a bit silly to say. We don't know how the web would have evolved without these languages, but it's pretty evident that modern web development has had some sizable influences on programming in general, and it wo

I don't understand the websocket protocol issue. The connection is not the http(s) protocol beyond the upgrade - allowing the use of http or https here is misleading, no? Is using a turnary or having a value other than what the current

It's great for influencers and beginners because of the ability to copy and paste examples plus the hype. The moment you put a scenario where there is no boilerplate available on the table, the utility of tailwind goes out the window.

Yes, if they require me to use a specific os, or install software to observe me, I won't take the job. Do you want me to build you awesome software? You need to let me use the tools of my choice. Full stop.

I thought the game "I know you are, but what am I" was for kids. This hateful obsession with Elon Musk is inherently political, I didn't bring that to this discussion.

Yeah, of course. I'm interested in what is true, not retorical games meant to focus public resentment in order to capture political power.

So were Germany's industries when they lost the second world war after trying to exterminate the Jews. This is the fault of Hamas, just like what happened to Germans was the fault of the Nazis.

This is why I never use google products for anything mission critical. They cancel all sorts of projects, even when it's against their business interests (arguably). From the outside these projects seem more like pawns for executive ad

I absolutely cannot wait for this to land. it's been a long time. it's going to make Rust much more approachable to new developers, and it's going to make the lives of existing Rust developers much less tedious.

You all are cringe. Anyone working in tech knows that most marketing sites are made by third parties, likely some WordPress shop. The hatred for Elon on this site is ridiculous.

No sorry, as someone who has worked a lot of startups and helped build companies when they were counting pennies prior to the growth phase, the idea that they are entitled to any of this is a joke, especially in a large corporation where th

In regards to a pay cut, I'm not moved by that argument. The pay at Twitter was already very competitive, and it seems very likely that people weren't doing a whole lot of work. As for who the employer's wealth, I don't

Absolute cringe. I'm not going to say I don't like these sorts of perks, but it shouldn't be considered a norm. If your team works nights to ship product, spends a lot of extra time in the office, sure it makes sense that the

I agree not much has happened with the boring company or the hyperloop stuff, and i dont see them going anywhere yet either. But saying Tesla are a scam is unhinged. In a lot of cities a good portion of cars on the road are Teslas. Here in

I'm so tired of this conspiracy theory. It reaks polically motivated of partisan hatred. This is QAnon levels of stupid.

Thunderf00t jumped the shark years ago. He has a most erect hate boner for Elon I've ever seen. He was also saying for a long time that spacex would never succeed nor starlink. You can hate the man, hell you can even accurately point o

I feel you on this, but I don't know if HN is the problem. This culture war has broke a lot of people's brains (regardless of what internet communities they're part of), to the point where nuanced discussion on any topic is r

The actual song always evoked the imagery of a AI becoming self-aware - as if the song was written from the perspective of such an AI. This cut is hard to listen too, it sounds lobotomized.

This is getting stupid now. I don't care what it's for, I want to make this very clear for anyone at Apple, so read this next bit aloud ok; I DO NOT WANT YOU TO SEND ANYTHING ON MY COMPUTER TO YOUR F***G SERVERS. As a professional

I simply do not want my computer sending signatures of anything on my disks to apple's servers. They can f*k right off. So glad I switched off Mac.

Are you trolling me? You must be, lol. Have you ever run a company or worked on a software team? It's a rhetorical question, it's clear that the answer is a solid no. It's not about convenience, it's about economics and

This is fantastic news. The only way we will be able to have abundant energy sources for the future is investment in nuclear technologies. Even with minimal investment the technologies in this space have advanced greatly. Modern reactor des

Wow what an ignorant and goofy take. No you are absolutely wrong. Laziness is not a factor. Have you ever had to develop and release an application across 5 operating systems all with different UI APIs while also offering a web based UI too

If you don't know then why are you commenting? Go read the Readme, and stop talking smack about other people's projects when you don't know such basic details.
