Last time somebody did this to me there were a lot of sit downs about how to properly chop up large scale code changes and why we don’t sit on our own branch for two months.
“How long will this take to get in?”
“Well, two weeks for me to initially review it, a week for you to address all the changes, then another week or so for me to re-review it… Then of course we have to merge in all the changes that have been happening in primary…”
Last time I got this PR I was like, “Okay, I’ll do my best, but you asked the guy that has like 30 mins a day to actually focus and look at someone else’s code AND yours isn’t the only PR I’ll have to look at this sprint. Have fun reminding me about this for the next week.”
My typical attitude is “I was fine without “latest fad” until now, I’ll still be fine now that I still know nothing about it”. And I forget about the whole thing. It’ll probably vanish fifteen months later anyway.
As an aside, who even makes those caricatural, utterly content free websites, and then pats themselves on the back thinking that’s a job well done? They’ve obviously put some amount of work into those things. Is the point to make it seem like it’s a cool super secret society or what?
Same. There is a logic to all code choices. Even basic things like the placement of empty lines to group code into ‘idea blocks’ massively helps with readability. This idea block touches x, and this next idea block touches y.
A tool can’t perform perform even basic logic like that.
If you have a lot of semantic breakpoints (like the end of a concept) that don’t line up with syntactic breakpoints (like the end of a method or expression body) your code probably needs to be refactored. If you don’t, then automatic code formatting is probably all you need.
That’s pretty cool. Iirc a lot of disabled people like using iphones for this reason. I hope we can have better accessibility tools on the Android side soon.
(also I’m fvcking tired of privacy extremists on here. if something is proprietary it doesn’t mean that it uploads literally everything to the server, on-device processing is still a thing y’know)
Unfortunately even if this is initially processed locally, there’s a significant risk that results and/or samples are still sent back. manufacturers have shown on multiple occasions that the allure of data they can leverage is too much to resist.
Somebody mentioned their Google Takeout (export of Google data) contained audio of them using the Google assistant. So Apple could technically do the same thing.
I’m not a privacy extremist, I just want to understand how technology works and how you should be using things in order to be safe online.
Facebook hasn’t used PHP for a long time. They use Hack which started as a language similar to PHP, but it’s very different now - it’s strongly-typed and has a bunch of advanced features, like the ability to annotate functions as pure (no side effects), which gets enforced by the type checker.
