I cannot believe how many good videos this (down to earth) guy has uploaded (1.1K) and for how long he has been doing it, yet still has hardly been noticed.
Before mobile phones where a thing, we used to memorize the phone numbers of every family member and friend and co-worker, etc. The numbers we rarely used, we wrote down or looked up in the phone book. When you got a new number, you maybe wrote it down, then after having dialed it a couple of times, it stuck. This didn't really require any effort, it was just the natural way of doing things.
Then came the mobile phone with the ability to store contacts, today I can't even remember my wife's number.
I have coded for more than 40 years and I hate autocomplete, language servers, etc. I don't use any of it because I have found (after having tried to use it all) that, just like with phone numbers, you don't remember much if you use all of that and you have to make a real effort, but things just don't stick the same way. But if don't use any of that, you only have to look things up in the beginning, then occasionally, then rarely or never again and more things just stick, you get faster in a natural way and you understand your code better. You also think deeper about how to structure your code and how to organize everything.
If you always use a crutch to help you walk, you will never walk by yourself. The crutch will look like it is helping you, but that's only in the beginning, eventually it will hinder you and hold you back.
Nice. I already see a problem. It requires a Google account. I don't have a Google account and I do not want a Google account. So how do we solve that problem?
I have a friend who works in production. I cannot remember exactly what his education is, but it's a type of engineer. If you want something produced that you have invented, he can get it done.
He has mentioned that they have software that can calculate the average lifespan of the finished product by entering the different components that goes into the product (like this piece has this amount of iron, this amount of tin, etc).
Based upon this the software can calculate the lifespan very precisely and determine if they have made it "too good". If it's too good the quality is decreased on purpose in order to reduce the lifespan such that people will buy more. Other testing goes into the equation as well, but enough data has been collected over the years that it can be calculated/simulated.
I hope you're joking here! If not, I would fire him on the spot. If for nothing else, he should not be messing with sshd debugging if he doesn't know what he is doing.
There is no sudden about it, SPA's are yet another one of the so-called "modern web" cancers of the Internet. They go completely against the protocols and architecture they run on and the only reason why they became so popular to begin with is because of all the hype from the big business, like so much else.
A web application or a website, by its very nature, is a series of small requests. When someone sends all requests in one big lump of a page, they have just defeated this very important architecture. Not to talk about the fact that they break searching on pages and a whole lot of other things.
It's absolutely ridiculous in Denmark, how much "fat-free" is still provided in the shops and even the doctors still talk about it. This nonsense was rebuked long ago, yet they doesn't seem to know!
There is a major difference between the help you can get from an IDE or editor with a language server running in the background, and then GitHub Copilot stealing away other peoples code.
