I genuinely believe this is the worst era of the Internet in regards to the user experience.


This!

Unpopular opinion: Don't use http verbs PUT, PATCH, DELETE. Just use POST for everything. Reasons: - <form> doesn't support the others. Frameworks that allow it do so through hacks. - URLs are free, you don't gain anything by overloading them. - Purity < practicality



Typescript has a lot to answer for 😱

Poll: Imagine your team has to build a project with either types or tests. You can't have both. Which would you pick?

Types %50.9
Tests %49.1

The government are ramming through this Online Safety Bill even though it is a travesty of justice which will make the UK Internet obviously less safe. 1/

If you're having trouble finding a bug in your Python code, I recommend adding type hints and doing static type checking. It won't help you fix your bug but it will give you a bunch of busywork to distract you from the problem!

This is the way.

Data and functions is all you need. No inheritance. No dependency injection. No classes. You will be rewarded with code that is both easier to test and maintain.

This. I’m yet to see a practical use for types in python, always workarounds, always frustration.

We clearly don't have agreement on the costs and benefits of typing of Python code at @getsentry but the amount of time wasted in getting shit typed at Sentry and how ugly it looks afterwards make me mad. And it does not even catch regressions.

Way too much engineering effort is spent on edge conditions that will never occur. Most of us aren't building rockets. It's such a waste of time to solve for what ifs. Write code that fails gracefully, add alerts, and move on with your life.


This is probably going to go down as one of the biggest own goals ever thestreamable.com/news/confirmed…


To be fair to @clickup used it for years and this is really the first major outage I can remember #hugops
