one topic not mentioned is creating refactoring tools. My sense is that LSPs generally have the advantage here because they have the full parsed tree, but I suspect it would be possible to build simple syntactic refactorings in TS with the

agree - what's more, the author is really talking about blaze, where everything "just works" because there are massive dedicated resources maintaining it. He literally admits that he likes the copy-pasta-no-think-about-it:

yes - I use coc + clangd and there is no comparison with cscope. The level of accuracy you get with clangd is significantly better than tags/cscope. The main thing you need to make clangd work properly is an accurate compile DB. Yes, y

I studied to be an S.E. for 7 years (undergrad/grad) and practiced for a little over a year before I gave it up for software. First, the pay was atrociously bad given they years of schooling. Seriously, I couldn't justify doing it

Luthiery specifically for me - it's a hobby currently and the thing I think about the most when I'm programming. The tooling and jig making aspect of woodworking is also very satisfying to my engineering tendencies.

On the other hand, strawberry perl ( http://strawberryperl.com/ ) for windows solved this by simply including a free toolchain (gcc). The gcc compiler for windows is hardly typical, but it was an interesting choice so that th

it's the false positives that worry me more - that is, the well-practiced whiteboard coder who cannot actually design a maintainable system or the sociopath or brilliant jerk who nobody can stand to work with.

I worked on a large to-UNIX migration using Mainsoft long ago. It was amazing how complete their win32 solution was, but it all felt so wrong. Using cross platform libraries from the get-go and NOT relying on single platform architectural c

Here are some of my reasons for running tmux inside of iTerm: * easy layout of panes (windows) in fullscreen mode. I have tmux macros setup to quickly get different pane layouts -- e.g. 65% left, then two vertical split panes in the remaini

most of this is stuff Herb (and others) has been promoting for years...and It's great to see it codified in one place.

This sounds like a brilliant idea. I hope that you are also including homework assignments that cover (1) communication skills (especially WRITTEN communication) and (2) personality. In my experience, those two areas are far more critical t

what I find most interesting is the pro-active safety net for laid-off workers and a culture that permits and encourages people to train for a different job as needed. In the U.S., by contrast, you are expected to feel shame and desperati
