This reads like a marketing stunt for Noma. The cute name, the logo, the clickbait title, the dramatic tone in an article that seems targeted at a non-technical audience... And the actual vulnerability is what, that if you give an LLM priva

Similar feelings here. Ruby's philosophy of providing a ton of different ways to do the same thing can lead to some pretty sweet-looking code, almost like poetry... but I'd rather have Python's stylistic consistency and bette

PHP has its significant flaws, but superficial syntactic differences aren't among them. In my experience, it takes two weeks to get used to pretty much any syntax.

Is that different from what is happening already? A lot of people won't adopt a language/technology unless it has a huge repository of answers on StackOverflow, mature tooling, and a decent hiring pool. I'm not saying you&#x2

I'm not the creator, the credit for that goes to Arie Bovenberg. I just wanted to show this to people.

Programming with string templates, in a highly complex and footgun-rich markup language, is one of the things I find most offputting about the DevOps ecosystem.

Both JS and PHP are rather footgun-rich languages; have you tried Python, Java, Kotlin, or C#?

Could someone who's more familiar with this project explain the advantages? To me, the main advantages of systemd are 1) It enables better separation of concerns, Twelve-Factor App style. For example, user-installed programs no longer

I'm a lot less experienced than you, but since you're collecting ideas, I'll give my opinion. For me personally, the biggest improvements that could be made to C aren't about advanced type system stuff. They're thin

You don't need to make up your own for this experiment. There's already a pretty old protocol that's far superior to TCP, but failed to get adoption because of network hardware dropping everything other than TCP and UDP. It&#

Looks fixed to me, thanks! Now the die doesn't roll when I select an objective that has moved. That works, though I would prefer if these objectives were simply unselectable and the game had some kind of visual indication of which obje

Interesting choice of window manager. Has anyone here used PaperWM and can comment on how its "scrollable" interface compares to more traditional tiling WMs like i3?

Sure, it's different from the old way, but I don't think "unintuitive" is the right word for that. systemd forced people to change their habits so that it could be more intuitive. Of course, people are going to disagree
