The site uses the word Helix so frequently that I began to feel stupid for having no idea what it means. Helix is used in so many different linguistic settings that it's not clear what it is.

Looks good! I'll give it a shot.

Interesting perspective. Coming from C#, whose generics are first class, I struggled to obtain any real value from Go's generics. It's not possible to execute on ideas that fit nicely in your head, and you instead end up fighting

This absolutely captures my experience. My successful AI written projects are those where I care solely on the output and have little to no knowledge about the subject matter. When I try to walk an agent through creating anything about whic

Couldn't agree more. Recall means "sufficiently dangerous to need to recall the vehicle to the manufacturer" - yes, in the modern world it can be fixed OTA, but it's still dangerous enough to require a mass fix to a fast

My current hack is reminding myself it's better to have a poorly architected system that's finished / functional than a half-finished "well architected" one Once I notice things creaking I start doodling a new arch.

I moved from LastPass to 1Password last year. The difference in experience is not insignificant. Login screen presentation and identification is orders of magnitude better on 1Password than with LastPass. Also, LastPass's Android app s

LLMs cannot lie insofar as they cannot tell the truth. They're remarkably good at predicting what token comes next given a bunch of tokens, but nothing else.

If you build inside docker, running tests that use docker is a pain. Go has a lot of in-memory versions of things for tests, which run so much quicker than leaning on docker. Similarly, I found C# has in-memory versions of deps you can lean

You helped a lot of people get into programming, including me. So thanks for your contribution! I learned VB4 or 5 at college in 98. The teacher did nothing while we sat through MS videos where a bearded man both poured water from one jug t

This post feels like an April fools joke. Like somehow 100 year mortgages and 100 year websites go hand in hand. Very few blogs or posts feel relevant a year or two later, let alone a decade. The only people buying this are those with Balen

This is a few years old now, it's age made clearer by the lack of generics. I don't really agree. The more experienced Devs I know enjoy Go's simplicity. Personally I miss pattern matching and algebraic types, but I am fully

Author here. I like text descriptions around my test so wrote this based a little bit on my experiences with XBehave in the .net space. Looking for any and all feedback, comments, etc. It serves me well for what I use it for and figured it

I'm watching Picard, and I asked it if it knew about Star Trek. It responded, acknowledging that it was a show about the crew of the Enterprise. However, I corrected it, stating that while early shows were focused on the Enterprise, th

I love in the UK and haven't met anyone who thinks a return to imperial units is a good idea. That being said, I met only a handful of people who classed themselves as pro-brexit and look how that turned out. I look forward to adding f
