Australian company so: lol. Snowden triggered a few narrow real wins but the broader surveillance apparatus adapted, survived, and in some ways grew. Things were just legalised.

So we should only address the symptoms and not the cause. What are you saying? Modern AC units are heat pumps the same box cools in summer and heats in winter, more efficiently than a gas boiler. What is your stance on heat pumps? Conservat

Exactly. There is plenty of code change however introduced by bundlers who do “bundling“, polyfill injection, minification, this kind of stuff.

Germany is in no position to go against the USA's geopolitical interests. Sure, they do trade shenanigans sometimes, like with Russian gas, but the relationship with Russia was pretty good before Putin decided to hold power endlessly -

absolutely nobody used those outside of a language demo. We also got --erasableSyntaxOnly last year to remove them from the language. The TS team considers them “mistakes“ for a really long time now

I had keyboards upwards of $200 with a very nice design but they have their Bluetooth switch underneath the keycaps ... and usually don't ship ISO versions. What keychron is delivering for the price is just amazing.

This is a minor point. It gives the government broad power to reject any request, associations and media outlets are excluded, it costs more and the mandatory REDACTION OF NAMES is undercutting accountability completely. Yea, I don't g

"SPD will block this" is contradicted by SPD already voting for the identical Berlin version weeks ago.

I used to be a hardcore Cursor user until I spent more time with the alternatives and cursor has gotten rough on my machine lately: spins up the MBP fans in minutes and drains the battery in an hour or two on the go. The harness is great, b

I think the fact that a guns primary function is harm and murder and AI is a word prediction engine makes a huge difference.

First time seeing this. Really moving story. I just set up a monthly donation and had one thought: the way to donate monthly feels a bit too hidden right now (did a ctrl+f search to find the footer link). Much love to all of you!

Founders can choose how to get paid, so this mostly feels like optics and support for YCs stablecoin bets. Most startups will just need to dump this into a bank to pay salaries and vendors.

The willingness to keep backing his companies, despite his political trajectory, is honestly hard to understand.

People create their opinion from what they read in blog posts like this rather than their own experience. Take the right tool for the job - over.

Going back to the early 2000s with freemarker/twig/mustache is what he means I guess? Nextjs and Gatsby are what they are for very good reasons and backend apis can be written in whatever you please these days... Why would you con

This is a very blunt statement and overvalues hstore. Keys AND values in hstore are and can only be text strings.

My beef with software patents is bigger than my dislike of the Facebook institution. I think something like a weak patent clause would be nice for FOSS projects but it's not explored by many so far. Interestingly more people seem blate

Everything is an expression. Including if statements. There is no need of such syntax abominations.

Lies. Merkels government just changed how the number is calculated. They created programs for unemployed (1 euro jobber, "Aufstocker") and removed them from the statistic. They still receive social support but are not "fully

My favorites are the collection of functions offered by the graphql-tools package. Like composing your schema from strings instead of the verbose JSON definition. The mocking is also neat. Apollo is really just a tool-box of a lot neat litt

Oh man. Proponents say critics dont offer alternatives at the same time they always literally 'reverse' engineered sessions if you dig deep enough. I give up. JWT is just a hip thing to do right now. :(

So there is a db roundtrip involved? Like a inverted session. Whats the point of using jwt then?

Do you think java is elegant or do you think ocaml is elegant? Google built Dart once as a alternative and it did not make it into the Browser. Are JS frameworks not simple? I really want to know how you feel about Spring or Magento.

() = empty arguments. you can only omit the braces when you have 1 argument. 0 and 2+ require the braces. #tc39 the colon refers to flow and typescripts type annotation "colon something". none-objects are lowercased

React's event system is one of its strong points. Like with many alternatives, I stopped looking into them when i read "no event system" in the README. Perf is not the single most high priority in a framework.

Hard to believe. We have fortified foods and it should be rather hard to catch a nutrition deficiency, even if your diet solely consists of cheeseburgers (This probably differs from country to country). Vitamin D can be found in Fish, Egg a

Downvoted ofc. To be more elaborate: Node never claimed to do multithreading or being good at parallel processing. The shocking discovery of this article is: 1) The Author knows little about JS. 2) Picking on a scripting language which has
