What are the new file format initiatives you're referencing here? This solution seems clever overall, and finding a way to bolt on features of the latest-and-greatest new hotness without breaking backwards compatibility is a testament

Lazy trees is a long awaited change for many, without it flakes are essentially unusable in monorepos. As a one-time Nix user, Flakes definitely don't seem like an ideal solution but the Nix community lets perfect be the enemy of bette

Naomi Wu has been talking about this for a while [0]. She lives in China, and has flagged this multiple times on Twitter, apparently without much response from the Signal team to her frustration. The issue seems to be that Signal simply set

While assurances from the founders make (classically) liberal idealists all warm and fuzzy inside, they aren't worth much until there is a controversy to use this post as a measuring stick on. At that point, we'll have a more clea

How did you know it was Clojurescript? Pretty awesome to see Clojure getting more use. It feels like a leap forward every time I even play with it.

Optimizing for efficient, capable teams is a difficult problem, and seemingly untenable above a certain size by nature. With that in mind, the obvious answer (especially in software) seems to be to keep teams as small as possible. Netflix&#

Yeah, here is what I'm working with as of now. Moved recently (like everyone else) and still getting an office setup, but this is the basics. As far as height, I'd say it's a very ergonomically sound setup when in kneeling po

Scott's book is about how bottom-up complex systems are destroyed and reconstructed as top-down centrally planned organized systems in order to become more "legible" for the destroyer (the state). The general theme is the sta

I respect your point and semi-agree, but as someone who ran a small business in high school that usually involved reverse engineering obfuscated Javascript, I think you're overstating how hard it is to follow the logic of Javascript b

Yes, it is a ton of work to step through and understand minified and obfuscated code, but it is a skill that many people learn and do if there is motivation. On your second point, I think the key is that the people who do have a reason to d
