Types are important and necessary. Can you skip them in a typed language? Yes, just use any, Object or whatever the equivalent. Can you add them to an untyped language? No. They are not needed anywhere. But I argue that especially JavaScrip

1. Try a completely functional language like Haskell once to learn about side-effects. 2. If you do multi threading: Look into Immutability and communicating sequential processes 3. Use static analysis / linters / code checkers fo

I wrote an autohotkey script for windows to assign alt-* to most shortcuts which would require ctrl-*. Alt is physically where Macs Cmd is, so I had Alt-A for Cmd-A, Alt-F for Cmd-F, Cmd-W and so forth. This made a big difference. Also I i

Have you tried a combination of quick-reading and taking notes. If it's about train of thoughts: for each tab try formulating and writing down a question that came to your mind while reading it. That is the creative takeaway and it mig

Not really, since everybody who cloned a repo has a full copy of everything. Reminds me of the saying that writing git was just a backup strategy for Linus Torvalds: FTP-mirrors were the first step to ensure that the kernel was never lost,

Use REST for reading, but RPC-style calls for writing. Benefits: 1. Every write-call is a transaction 2. You can have complex filtering and sorting in the read/access side of your API without having to worrying about the update-side of

I did this 15 years ago, before I gave gentoo a spin. I compiled my kernel for many years (make menuconfig). Bottom line: It's not worth it. I use debian now.

You have to adapt while writing: If I want a "more important" sentence to be read, I put on it's own paragraph.

One question for all users of knowledge-bases like this: How often do you write something down and look it the next day and realize it's not relevant anymore because of reasons like: • you memorized it • it's not as important as i

The difference is that computer-on-your wrist are personal. They got cheaper and cheaper as everyone started to buy one. I can't imagine everyone buying a spaceship, or even 1 in 10.000 people, if spacecraft costs were 10.000 times the

You are right, you could say: "It's a problem, it doesn't matter if it's us or not, but we have to fix it". Question is whether this helps the debate or not. It could help.
