I was surprised that TFS was not mentioned in the story (at least not as far as I have read). It should have existed around the same time and other parts of MS were using it. I think it was released around 2005 but MS probably had it intern

I'm personally on the side that thinks that pg + x != pg. It might not even be possible to install x on some hosted pg servers. It is great that you can expand pg and that you and others have but I don't rate it as high as a buil-

I don't think the example was perfect which explains your wife's reaction. Think of it more like the first delivery guy/girl left his/her car outside and wrote 123 on it. Then walked back. The next one sees the car with

I don't see any reason why it shouldn't scale. It also allows you to use any backend language. If you write messy code in php and think it is the language 's fault then you can use something else. Rust, Go, Java, C#, Elixir.

Do you really want the thousands of bugs that would occur if we shipped a real binary to each device? And all security problems? Sorry, the FooApp 1.1 does not support your iPhone 12. It also crashes on Samsung Galaxy 21 and lower and has a

I remember a client using Graylog. It was good for app logging and is available as open source.

There was/is a state management lib called Mobx that was released years ago and was usually combined with React. It was kind of reactive, very easy to use and fast. It normally only updated the components that was effected by a state c

Did you read the article? The main issue with your idea is that an LLM won't know if the algorithm it created is any good, or even if it works at all. If it can't check that it will never know and never get better. You could ask i

In Sweden we have a special authetication system that is owned by the banks. It is called BankID and generally works well but it has flaws, especially that you shouldn't use it if they call you and ask to you do it since that is a secu

I know that some of them tried to rewrite large systems but failed. You are right that it is not just a money issue since they could spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the rewrite and then basically scrapping it. It shows that they di

A really, really bad argument in my opinion. That thinking would lead us to Cobol.

I remember it as at that time Windows and Unix was the common systems. I know we collected statistics for our business software offering that could run on multiple types of Unix and on Windows. Around 1998 I think 70% of all customers choos

This sounds like an idea without any real data. For people to prefer one they had to try both and I guess especially data science people just took the most common language in their field. People seem to forget or miss that it took many, man

I think Angular looks like Htmx on crack but I do remember that Angular was first. We used it in a project and it worked perfectly. If you have the need to write a lot of logic and changing of most of the UI parts dynamically on the page th

It has come down a bit in price in Sweden but they do need to scale up their factories get the prices down much more to sell more.

In a way it would be logical for Apple to get out of the computer business and scrap all MacBooks and Mac Minis. That they only have around 10% of the market means that most people uses iPhones with non-Apple computers anyway. They could fo

When you have more time and budget for a project you can teach junior developers to optimize code better.

If one thousand of us read one page each we can be done in 15 minutes! Then we just have to sync our knowledge.

Of course there are some challenges and some use cases where Htmx is not the best solution but I think it can scale pretty far. You can split a large app into pages and then each page only has to care about its own parts (sub components). I

I can just note that our Angular code seems to be much harder to maintain than our React code. The React ecosystem also improves faster (yes, sometimes a bit too fast).

I would personally try Snowflake before BigQuery unless I knew BigQuery was cheaper. They do store things in some other cloud but you can choose between the big three.

Ask them what they have done before. First of all, years of experience is good to have so you may want to strive for 5-10 years instead of someone with 2 years. You can then ask if they have mentored others before and how they think about b
