  • Yeah that's mostly what I'm referring to.

    Backups are pretty easy, but service availability and failovers across cloud providers is stupid difficult. Not really from a compute standpoint but mostly from a data consistency/transactional standpoint.

    However, if you are using vendor specific services like AWS connect then you have to build and maintain multiple deep integrations into those services which effectively doubles your engineering efforts.

  • Good news, they have these, and you even get paid to do it!

    Not nearly enough mind you.

  • Multi-cloud is a significant amount of effort to pull off.

    Being on one cloud provider across multiple regions is often plenty of redundancy.

    Being available across multiple cloud providers is really REALLY difficult

  • Honestly surprised C# isn't on here? It's still one of the "big 5" languages, and .Net touts it's incredible performance on the regular.

  • The number of new devs who complain about having to write a unit test is too damn high

    • Or writing integration tests
    • Or passing CI
    • Or following repo conventions
    • Or following standards
    • Or adhering to domain guardrails
    • Or in adding monitoring
    • Or in not logging everything as info
    • Or in actually documenting features
    • Or in receiving critical PR review
    • Or in addition input validation
    • Or in not trusting the client

    ...etc

    Honestly most devs.... Kinda suck at their job. This is becoming more evident to me every year

  • I work remote (Going on 9 years now) and I miss a sense of community. Do I want to stop working remotely? Hell no, screw that. But two things can be true the same time, I can enjoy and encourage them at work, dnd I can also miss a sense of community.

    I think it's okay to hold this opinion because it's individual to everyone.

    This just comes across as propaganda

    Being dismissive and pulling the rhetoric that this is propaganda is toxic as fuck.

  • 65% of the 100 largest US hospitals and health systems have had a recent data breach

  • Hospital near me has password requirements for their electronic medical records system as:

    • 6 characters, no more, no less
    • 2 characters must be a number
    • 4 characters must be a letter
    • case insensitive
    • never changed

    And for new hires and what not, they tell them to use {hospital abbreviation}{2 digit year}. Like casu24

    No freaking wonder

  • Why would it be on each dev to setup?

    Your repo can, and should, include workspace settings for major editors that provide a uniform experience for anyone onboarded to the platform.

    I agree that precommit hooks are good for uniformity. But slow pre commit hooks are frustrating, they are also often turned off. Your CI will always be the last gatekeeper for linting/formatting rules regardless.

    Making precommit hooks slower means more devs disable them, which is the opposite of what you want. Save them for simple, read, checks and validations that can run in < 1s for even huge changesets.

  • Or on save even. Slow pre commit hooks suckkkk

  • That's not a linting problem that's a formatting problem.

    That project should have automatic formatting on save setup.

    Linters are not necessarily formatters they're solving two different problems and are becoming increasingly separated in their toolset.

  • Am I saying you are scientifically illiterate?

    Based on the previous statements, yes. However, as a matter of fact, not necessarily insult.

    The good news is you're following up with questions and want to learn more, instead of doubling down. With curiosity you will become more literate.

    Maybe you were born with all the knowledge of the human race, but the rest of us have to learn it.

    The education system in the country you are from has failed you. Assuming you are in your mid-late teens, or older, scientific topics should have already been taught in what North America would call "middle school" (11-14 years old). That teaches you things like conservation of momentum.

    There is a reason why it's called illiteracy, because there is an expectation that the baseline level of education everyone in developed countries receives teaches them the fundamentals of how the world around them works. Without this fundamental understanding it's not possible to understand more complex topics that build upon it, stunting growth.

  • Equal and opposite reaction.

    There's a law for this. The matter is "pushing" against the ship, it doesn't have to push against anything else.

    In fact having an atmosphere to push against actually reduces the effectiveness of thrust due to atmospheric pressure, which must be overcome. Which is why different engines are designed to run in atmosphere versus out of atmosphere.

    If you throw a baseball in space you have transferred momentum to that baseball, pushing you back. You will move in the opposite direction (likely spin because you just imparted angular momentum onto yourself since you didn't throw from center of mass)

  • Given how many people think that railguns have no recoil because "there is no explosion" they might actually seriously believe what they just wrote.

    Scientific illiteracy is through the roof.

    Or maybe it's the same as it it's always been it's just that people that are scientifically illiterate are given platforms to speak their illiteracy as truth.

  • Yeah, and electron already has a secureStorage API that handles the OS interop for you. Which signal isn't using, and a PR already exists to enable...

  • Stop comparing programming languages

    Jump

  • The ecosystem is really it, C# as a language isn't the best, objectively Typescript is a much more developer friendly and globally type safe (at design time) language. It's far more versatile than C# in that regard, to the point where there is almost no comparison.

    But holy hell the .Net ecosystem is light-years ahead, it's so incredibly consistent across major versions, is extremely high quality, has consistent and well considered design advancements, and is absolutely bloody fast. Tie that in with first party frameworks that cover most of all major needs, and it all works together so smoothly, at least for web dev.
