I find introductions to books too boring, whether Maths, Programming or just about anything. I hope to document my Programming learning progress and document it in a small book. And I totally wish to steal that line.
Origins according to a many-times-over gilded comment on reddit (I forget which sub) went something like this -
subservient office culture in Japan where the big boss was reading it, so it spread to the entire organisation from where it spread to other organisations. It got to a point where no one knew why they were reading it, just that they had to. Around the same time it caught imagination of the Americans because of the Japanese (who were actually pretty efficient at their jobs).
Will look for the comment and post if it takes me less than 15 mins.
Edit: forgot how bad reddit search was. While I did not find what I was looking for, this [0] is one high quality answer you may be interested in. Only top comments are heavily moderated on that sub.
I have some farming experience under my belt, zero with rice.
You have to look at labour as a function of season. If while planting, there are no competing jobs, but while harvesting, there are (or the other way around)... That would be your answer.
What you said, and what I'm retorting with requires data, lots of it. But my understanding is that given unchecked power in a domain, almost all of them do the same.
Yeah, I appreciate Valve more and more. Epic has the gall to present themselves as underdogs fighting for consumers against Valve, Apple, etc. Meanwhile Valve quietly hums along making gaming better for everyone.
>As a managed platform that brings modern development standards to background jobs (ex: multi-env support, zero-API design), we enable Node.js developers to build products faster and scale without effort and infrastructure knowledge.
Can you please elaborate more on the modern development standards bit? I've always been intrigued by changes on development forefront from early 90's time.
Sure, please note that was referring to “modern development standards” in the Node.js ecosystem.
Node.js, with the flexibility of the JavaScript language, allowed the rise of great abstraction and other domain-oriented API designs, a bit like Ruby on Rails did with Ruby.
The arrival of React.js Server Components pattern enabled the isomorphic pattern (first applied to mobile and front-end apps) to reach the server side of things with patterns such as Server side rendering, popularized by frameworks like Next.js or Remix.
Those new patterns and abstractions allow Node.js developers to move faster while building more complex applications to match users’ requirements: real-time, performant apps, richly integrated with third-party products.
Beyond code, those new coding habits came with new products such as Vercel or Supabase that help them to get the infrastructure done in no time, without any DevOps knowledge (good article on this topic: https://vercel.com/blog/framework-defined-infrastructure).
“modern development standards”, applied to Node.js, do not only apply to coding experience and productivity (ex: the rise of monorepos, TypeScript, SSR) but also to enabling developers to configure their infrastructure from the code.
>An owner’s rights in this situation depend on what state they live in and what’s in their loan agreement.
A good starting point would be to define ownership. Do you still own your car? Yes, you pay for it. Like in the case of a popular car manufacturer offering ventilated seats only if you pay them ARR, or another one offering a better turning radius if you are on an annual contract. What it always comes down to is ownership.
Tried using vim, neovim, Emacs, mg, etc a month ago and quickly went back to pycharm which hogs resources on my ancient computer.
Have been looking for a "how-to" on various editors. This video seems to be it for neovim.
