I'd love an article that takes a deep dive of how git is implemented

@hack Yep, bombardier is what I use too, although I need something that supports random parameters in the url (like an id) to be as realistic as possible

@anonymus19941 hahaha that might a bit too much

@dufferz the dot serves its purpose just fine, I don't understand why you are so upset about it?

@SanitizedOutput It's windows, dots don't hide files, you have to explicitly hide it through properties dialog.

Make sure you don't commit commented out code, one of our projects is full of commented out code and nobody dares to remove them (because they *might* be "important")

I am not against taking your time to think, but improving your typing speed takes two weeks at most and leaves much more time for thinking.

Or when they "Enhance" images

Congrats man!

@fun2code I'd appreciate it

@Condor the browser is already a Virtual Machine, so there are some safeguards already in place, and I am sure they have thought about all that. Let the smart people solve that hahaha

@Hausen Learning JS is a must if you want to do front-end web programming, even if you decided that you're going to use something like TypeScript. So you can't really escape it.

However, for a short overview of the problems of JS, take a look at this: https://medium.com/javascript-non-g...

@py2js it was a long time ago, but I was reminded of it by a similar rant here today. And this is the link: https://stackoverflow.com/a/...

@irene There were a lot of things that seemed impossible a decade ago.

Nobody would have believed Microsoft would invest so much in Open Source, companies don't change because they want, they change because they have to

@Voxera Google currently has two cross platform app development frameworks: PWA and Flutter. The only company that's not embracing cross platform apps is Apple

It surely will take a long time to get there, and I don't expect them to merge their OSes, just make development a bit easier. And I think we are headed there: Microsoft has Xamarin, Facebook has ReactNative, Google has Flutter.

A decade ago you'd see stuff like: "Works best on IE" or stuff like that on many of the websites. Most native apps are not that complex and don't need access to low level stuff, so I don't think it's impossible.

@CWins I think that's the goal, however how much of it they can achieve is something else

@ynnk interesting, in what way?

@jbhelfrich "wrong" can be very subjective and can easily be abused

I did a course about C and we had use clang and and make on linux. So I was using terminal quite frequently... I guess it depends on the job (programmer, sysadmin...) and the language/tools available and of course personal preferences

At some point, you might have to negotiate with them and in turn you'll have to start recognizing them as features

@qbasic16 Actually the OMR is from a big Japanese corporation

Currently I am working on an app that's supposed to connect to an OMR, the api documentation is in written in a very bad English as if it's translated by Google Translate. And the samples were buggy and threw exceptions

@AptFox I feel you, undocumented or badly documented APIs are the worst

@Krokoklemme amirite? Who needs documentation when you have intellisense

@qbasic16 I was learning VB.NET, but now I am using c#

at least you have a good taste in music

@bittersweet thanks! didn't know setting up a remote was that simple

We will lead the resistance 😀 Normal soldiers would be uselessness against robots

Thanks everyone! and for the suggestions, I'd not even think about developing a serious app without a version control system. So I did set up a local git repo. A private GitHub repo would have been much nicer though..
