The true rite of passage for the child hacker I remember my dad and brother taking a floppy to copy a sys file to restore a win 3.1 install from the Sam’s display computer in the pre-internet days
Yeah, we live on the backside of a circle with no through traffic and today I watched a teenager race around the circle going faster than 20mph for several laps. My driveway is sloped and balls roll into the road that my small children go after all the time. Its been a point of focus for me to convince them to check the road, stop, look both ways, ALWAYS, and make sure there are no cars.
Even if they dont clock it car, its my hope the driver sees them on the side while they pause to check. Them getting hit by a car in my own neighborhood is my biggest fear and also the most likely disaster that can probably befall them.
I also love transporting them in our van, so its just a very complicated issue. I wish our populace was more into walkable solution and more attentive at driving.
30 minutes seems long. Is there a lot of data? I’ve been working on bootstrapping sqlite dbs off of lots of json data and by holding a list of values and then inserting 10k at a time with inserts, Ive found a good perf sweet spot where I can insert plenty of rows (millions) in minutes. I had to use some tricks with bloom filters and LRU caching, but can build a 6 gig db in like 20ish minutes now
In contrast to this point, as long as I use Xcode and do the same thing I've always done allowing it to manage provisioning and everything else, I don't have a problem. However, I want to use CI/CD. Have you seen what kind of access you have to give fastlane? It's pretty wild. And even after giving it the keys to the kingdom, it still didn't work. Integrating apple code signing with CI/CD is really hard, full of very strange error messages and incantations to make it "work".
My experience with this at one company is the DB became a wild west of cowboyed sprocs that were in source control but a lot of times the sproc in the db didnt match the stored code. It became a way to skirt code reviews and push changes fast. Now, the environment was toxic to begin with, and maybe that wouldnt happen on a project with better technical leadership, but there is a lot of wiggle room for hanky panky at the db level
You may not have to today, but you will one day. They will remove zone.js and there will be a whole host of deprecated libraries and outdated blog posts about how to do things the “angular” way. If the vite dev server didnt feel so much snappier, I would lament it, however, I think overall its a nice change.
And sure, just change components while you are in there, but this is for my blog libraries I work on in my spare time. A lot of the standalone stuff just feels like change for change sake and the scripts did not run against a library project. I tried to dig into the @angular/cli repo to try and figure out what was going on, but after reading a few classes noped out and just converted by hand. Only takes a couple of hours or a day to test, but thats 0 productivity time. Change detection is different now and leveraging ngOnChanges is def broken now, zone js removal is experimental, and all of it so Angular becomes more like React as far as I can tell.
My new projects are Django with templates and post backs. Its a breath of fresh air.
This comment thread is a microcosm of the problems with python packaging :D I appreciate the work the ecosystem does on it and everyone is doing their best, but its still a hard problem that doesn't feel solved
I’ve just recently gotten into ansible and find myself building the same thing. I wrote a script to interact with virsh and build vms locally so I can spin up my infra at home to test and deploy to the cloud if and when I want to spend actual money.
I’m still very much an ansible noob, but if you have a repo with playbooks I’d love to poke around and learn some things! If not, no worries, I appreciate your time reading this comment!
I have this same issue, and the same frustration every morning. It’s to the point where I will probably set up a shortcut and train myself not to use it haha. I really miss when it just worked!
Is there an example you have in mind as to why the params, if passed via keyword, would need to stay in their position? It sounds like external calls made to the internal api without the headers being present? Trying to understand why the position/order would matter to you once arguments are named?
Its an interesting observation for sure, but those developers for mobile and web sit at the tippy top of all other abstractions layers. At that position a certain amount of boiler plate is needed because not all controls and code behind are the same, and there is a mighty collection of hacks on hacks to get a lot of things done. I think this is more of “horses for courses” thing where developers higher in the abstraction stack will always benefit from LLMs more and developers lower down the stack have more agency for improvement. At the end of the day, I think everyone gets more productive which is a net positive. Its just that not all developers are after the same goal (Application dev vs library devs vs system devs)
The whole system is rife with widespread, unreportable fraud. I’m on hour 8 of trying to get a 46 dollar charge for my annual preventative bloodwork reversed since its literally the only benefit of my plan that should be covered, but because the mysterious incantation of CPT and diagnostic codes are wrong, my previous provider is still sending me a bill once a month.
Imagine a company trying to offer support to interfaces all tailored to a specific user. I can imagine a future where this is viable, but it will def be a longer time span than 5 years
Ugh, this isn’t Angular anymore. This will be just like the v1 -> v2 transition. Presignal -> signal. The second they start deprecating the previous syntax, we will hit very difficult migrations
