Was a nightmare making extensions in the previous version. The documentation was very scattered/cluttered between different jupyterlab versions. Don’t think I’ll be coming back to it for 4.0.
I’m always surprised by how much others like typescript. Out of all the languages I have to use, typescript is the one that feels the most like pulling teeth. Maybe I just don’t know how bad it truly was to work with a really large JavaScript project without types and that’s why people love it, but without that experience it just feels like all the hassle of types without most of their benefits.
I do think it’s hard to break into initially — if you are approaching it from any other industry (such as what I did), it can take a few jobs to make the leap into a high paying career.
Edit: not trying to derail what you had said either, just a comment
Whenever I see articles like this one, I imagine this is the kind of PR that US colleges would use to deflect conversational topics they don’t want happening. Get people talking about “how do we get into college?” (with the assumption that college is where we want to be) instead of “why is the US college system broken?”
Not saying this is that, but just a thought and I’d be curious to see if this is a trend that continues.
That’s not how my conversations typically go. If they responded like that I would exit the conversation and not enter into conversations with them at a later date.
I don’t really agree with this, if you’ve never noticed someone respond in the overly negative way to things you say as annoying and conversation-stopping, there is a good chance you don’t realize how other people perceive this. Sure, if you have close friends they can probably roll with the punches, but I bet they’d appreciate your conversation more if you disagreed to things in a positive way.
Maybe to give a more obvious example:
“Do you like to play any shooters”
“Nah, I think shooters are stupid.”
This halt’s the conversation and reads as “I think the thing you like is stupid, and also now I want you to respond to that.”
If the goal was to continue the conversation, the same feeling could have been expressed conversationally as…
“I’m not really a fan of shooters tbh, I’m more into puzzle games.”
This does 2 things — it expresses your disinterest in the topic presented without insulting your conversational partners preference and it follows up with an offer of similar topic that might be of interest to the other so that they could respond like…
“Oh, I haven’t seen any good puzzle games lately! You have any recommendations?”
I don’t really think there is an exception to this rule. The reason for this is that responding negatively should imply you find the others opinion unsavory:
“This driver is so terrible, they must be Asian.”
“That’s racist.”
The reason that the negative disagreement is used here is not to continue the conversation; rather, it’s to let the other person know that you think their opinion is wrong/bad. (I’m not saying this is a good way to go about this conversation either, I just think it’s more obvious what effect the negative disagreement has on conversation.)
Not sure if author is the same as OP (I’m leaning towards not?), but if they are…
I’m curious what caused you to go down the route of transpiling? Do you think that this methodology will be a core facet of the architecture, and will it be able to be changed when rust gives you the tools you seemingly want? Do you think that the transpiling will be annoying to debug and update as rust continues to mature?
I disagree, this article did not come off this way to me, as all the comments were brief and backed up with supporting materials. In addition, the usage of words that would convey feelings the author had about the company were nonexistent — they described the actions taken (or not taken) by the company and left the reader to come to their own conclusions.
You actually can search repos in their entirety on github now, think it’s a beta-feature you can enable or use. In other words, congrats, they’ve already indexed your entire codebase because they needed to for copilot.
I probably would have stopped at the pdf level because I’m lazy. Thanks for not being me, following through with your hatred, and doing a short write-up!
Article seems forced and comes to their conclusions based on poorly-informed opinions. For instance, this author seems to think that Mastodon is exempt from the bots and advertising because it is decentralized. However, I think the much more obvious reason is that it’s not popular; people don’t go there with their bots and advertisements. If it suddenly became popular, the bots/advertisements/“poor comment quality” would surely follow.
(Just be clear, I don’t mean literal website ads, I mean posts that advertise products and businesses, whether it be obvious or not.)
Tell that to my graphics card. Had to update to 10 from 7 about 1-2 years ago because my graphics card started making very scary loud sounds when playing games.
