For those that didn't read the thread - this is for the Svelte compiler, not the Svelte library. Users of Svelte will be unaffected and typedefs will still be available.

There's nothing in the article (if you read it) that tries to paint that narrative. As far as NYP goes, it's actually pretty mild and factual. I don't understand why so many commenters here are jumping at the chance to defend

Suicide is tragic regardless of the circumstances, and it's a really bad take to try to minimize this because it's not statistically "significant" or "clickbait".

An employee of Google who jumped from the Google office is a pretty obvious connection. Don't really see how this is clickbait.

To me the more interesting question is: did Neanderthals value art? Could argue all day about what is and isn't art and if they created artifacts that fit the definition, but what I'd really like to know is "did they apprec

Memoizing the callback prop only matters if you wrap the child component in "React.memo". If you don't wrap the child component with "React.memo", every time the parent renders the child will render regardless of pr

Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is the holy grail. I don't think you'll find a much better single "diy" resource. I don't think you need to follow it cover to cover, but it's a great reference resource t

Same thing happened to me at my last company. I was over worked, wore too many hats, and was paid significantly less than my team mates who were more junior than I was (and had less responsibility). I had a handful of conversations that nev

Yawn. Another "hot take" article that's really just pandering to the HN/"true hacker" crowd that romanticizes anything pre-Google. It's a pretty shallow article that just regurgitates the same old "mo

Admittedly I haven't followed Svelte super closely, but isn't "no JSX/TSX" kind of a major ideological point? From reading the intro docs, it seems like separation of js/css/html is a selling point. JSX&#x

Also curious - I'm spinning up a small side project with Rust and Svelte. Was looking in Tauri as a replacement for Electron but wondering what other approaches people have worked with (assuming this is a cross platform desktop app, th

Most at home racks have "safety bars" that you can adjust to act as a safeguard from dropping weights. The most dangerous for dropping weight imo are bench and squat, and both are easily mitigated with the bars adjust to the corre

Huh, interesting. I've done this pretty much my whole (programming) career. As a non-traditional, I always felt it was a weakness to be "that guy", but it's good to know that it's a common tactic. Luckily, I've

Despite the Electron detractors, I do think it's a pretty powerful tool. In a lot of cases it's very un-optimized/bloated, but it has been proven to be very quick in some cases (vscode, etc). In any case, even if Electron fal

Great advice here. A lot of people try to get fit instantly and it's a big horrible negative feedback loop. One thing to add which helped me get into shape - pick one main goal in fitness. Want to lose weight? Focus on that. Want to bu

I get where you're coming from with the metaphor, but I see these types of comparisons a lot when talking about computing "fundamentals" and they've never really felt right to me. Even though pilots may know the basics o

For me burnout comes from the endless treadmill of external pressures (arbitrary deadlines, changing requirements) and the endless treadmill of development work. There's not really ever a chance to step back and take a breath - just co

As a art-degree holder turned engineer - yup. While there's a romantic vision of the starving artist, being broke is a whole different type of burnout.

I've been having a good experience with pnpm lately. It's not a silver bullet but it addresses some pain points with npm/yarn.

"at scale" here means # of contributors, not # of lines or scope of code base. Svelte vs React on a single side project I work on in my free time by myself is different conversation than Svelte vs React on a team that's movin

Maybe I worded that incorrectly - yes performance is important. But the negligible gains between framework x and framework y are not high on my evaluation checklist, as long as the minimum performance requirement is met (which is often di

This is informative. How is the configuration overhead? Is it relatively easy to get Vite + a custom react app template + tsx + testing up and running? CRA is bloated, but still one of the fastest ways to get a "full app" up and r

I really disagree with this point of view. I don't think anyone should feel indebted to their circumstance/employer just because there are others out there without the same opportunities. Is it entitlement? Maybe. But isn't i
