Willison has an impressive record for coining terms. But feel like he may have missed it here. In the context, 'engineering' doesn't feel that different to 'coding'. The sloppy sounding part is 'vibe' and that's not been removed.
I hope it works out for Basecamp. It is simply not ok to allow anxious or bitter people to be wearing each other out with political beliefs when they are being paid well to do a job. The twitter parade of martyr complexes is predictable but it is disappointing that so much talent has lost perspective on what professional conduct looks like in a workplace.
Agreed. I find it rather alarming that an influential member of the Chrome team is talking like this. All our e2e test suites are built around Chrome and XPath because of its expanded abilities over CSS
Everyone has a plan right now in the UK parliament. Probably over half of parliament is hoping to push the UK into a 'cancel Brexit' scenario, despite claiming they respect the referendum result. Possibly a third of parliament have given up on the prospect of a reasonable deal with the EU and are holding out for a no-deal WTO exit. A minority are still seeking a last-minute deal that everyone can agree on.
It has always been my belief that a good trade deal between the UK and the EU is only possible if the UK is actually willing to go no-deal WTO first. Simply because the EU never concedes anything in good faith when it comes to negotiations.
Angular 2 in beta made bold claims about being 'production ready' which reads 'almost done', it was frustrating just how long it then took to become what I would consider production ready.
I consider Angular 4 the first release to produce just about acceptable sized app bundle. On the whole though it's a very ambitious project and I think it will be increasingly hard to ignore, we've currently no intention of changing framework.
Pithy answer 2: because they are economically privileged.
The headline is a broad generalisation, and as another broad generalisation poorer people are more religious and more conservative because they have harder lives, bleaker temporal outlooks and hope for a better life 'beyond'.
So the most ruthless mafia operate among international organizations, but from London, thus making Britain the most corrupt country in the world? Perhaps they never leave London, not old enough to travel alone, or they don't know how to use the internet.
There's nothing new under the sun, just the sensationalist Bremain propaganda you'd expect a few weeks before an EU referendum.
It's usually inappropriate to draw in politics and religion when they are off topic, but sometimes they are involved. Ethics are involved frequently with technology, so politics and religion are not that far off.
Though really, It's pretty shallow to draw like for like comparisons between religion/politics and JS discussions. JS is trivial. Most tech discussions are trivial the day after they've been had.
High level in many areas "full-stack" is not as mythical as is suggested, it just takes someone with the right aptitude, and a long time over a lot of roles to get there.
Whether it does such a person any favours in the employment market is another question as you can't build businesses on rare commodities.
Vanilla CSS isn't that bad. Existing preprocessors have made it much nicer to use without changing the basic formula and workings of CSS.
GSS is a fairly radical departure and as such it should offer big returns which I'm not seeing. Moreover, I don't see that it's solving a problem that needed solving in the first place.
