@dmitriid I was taught BEDMAS in Canada and it really wasn't confusing at all. It was always taught that division/multiplication shared precedence, as well as addition/subtraction, and that's when you fallback to left to right.
English

I could never understand why English-speaking word needs a confusing acronym for "parentheses group, multiplication and division take precedence".
nathan from twt@absolutelyCard_
PEMDAS inadvertently taught an entire generation of people a fundamental misunderstanding of order of operations and what exactly subtraction and division are
English

@devagrawal09 If you think AI can or will in a short time replace software engineering, and you also think software can still be productized you're ngmi.
English

@matteocollina @lamualfa @yashone7 @nodejs @bunjavascript I agree with not allowing it ecosystem wide for 3rd party deps, but it not working for local packages is a huge pain.
English

@lamualfa @yashone7 @nodejs @bunjavascript The main reason it does not handle node_modules is an ecosystem one. If we allow .ts in packages, your editor/lang server would become slow to a crawl or crash.
English

Should @nodejs attempt a rewrite to Rust like @bunjavascript is doing by burning unlimited tokens?
English

@pushmatrix Need to use gyroscope/accelerometer API. I felt myself wanting to wiggle my phone to shake the fabric
English

@slagiewka @beaussan @robpalmer2 Since when? This hasn't worked in the past when using pnpm workspaces.
English

@beaussan @robpalmer2 That's not true 😉 Local modules inside a monorepo are allowed.
English

Node.js excitement 😉
TypeScript execution is now supported directly by all actively maintained versions of Node 🎉
🔷 tsc/tsgo remains essential for checking
🔷 No enums
🔷 Does not handle dependencies in node_modules
Marco Ippolito@satanacchio
With v20 going EOL, all Node.js LTS versions can run TypeScript out of the box. There is no reason to keep using plain JavaScript for new projects.

@WebReflection Small models need more specifically drafted prompts. The current design will break way to easily even if Google updates the model or if other browsers choose different models.
English

@WebReflection The size of the models isn't my concern with the API.
At the very least it should be:
- permissioned like location
- designed to support multiple models
English

Google offers an AI API many developers would love to use and explore/exploit.
Until few months ago it was cumbersome for users to enable such API, now it's "embedded".
It's a win for progress and a lost for the Open Web, because other vendors either need to do the same or fade
nixCraft 🐧@nixcraft
Google Chrome silently installs a 4 GB AI model on your device. > No consent dialog. No opt-out UI. Re-installs itself if the user removes it manually. That is the true definition of malware.
English

@devagrawal09 @munawar2434 @zeeg @sudobunni In this case I think making the claim is stupider than believing it.
English

@JLarky The best is when your bank has requirements like this but then allows ambiguous case matching by essentially just always lower casing it. I wouldn't be surprised if some even do fuzzy matching of characters like 1/i, 0/o, etc.
English

@devagrawal09 @munawar2434 @zeeg @sudobunni It was Claude Code's devs that first described it as a game engine, and they were f*ing stupid for doing so.
English

@munawar2434 @zeeg @sudobunni calling claude code a game engine is a massive insult to every game engine that exists, even the terrible ones
opencode's TUI is far ahead of claude code and it's still incredibly tiny compared to a real "game engine"
English

@bcardarella @devagrawal09 It could (probably should) be built in a composable manner that aligns with that specialised tools approach.
Not everyone needs git, jira, etc.
English

@devagrawal09 Enterprise would like it but the OSS community tends towards specialized tools
English

what if the next github isn't just the next github
but also the next slack, the next jira, and the next google drive all in one
Brian Cardarella@bcardarella
The next GitHub won't look like GitHub. If you are trying to build the next GitHub stop making it like GitHub. Hint: Git is distributed.
English

@adamdotdev Stop using AI for programming. Give it a couple weeks then compare your productivity and happiness to your AI assisted time. Maybe you are more happy and productive without AI, or maybe still the productivity increase simply isn't worth it.
English

@devagrawal09 My gut tells me it's more expensive now, or at the very least great code is more expensive than it was 4 years ago.
English

@andrii_sherman `BlockUsersTable extends AbstractTable<BlockedUsersTable>`
That certainly looks like a bug...
English

@fabiospampinato What's so wrong with "${" though? It's less likely to conflict with something like a style tag with CSS inside.
English

Super weird but if you tweak a coding font such that "=${" is actually rendered as "={" then I think one could make JS tagged template literals look pretty much exactly like JSX 🤔
Perhaps shortcuts could be tweaked also in such a way that typing "{" after a "=" in a tagged template literal actually types "${".
Maybe people that like coding ligatures could be into this sort of thing.
English

Happy to announce TSRX. Think it as the spiritual successor to JSX.
We extracted it from Ripple, and made it framework agnostic. It can compile to React, Ripple and Solid, other frameworks to come soon.
It's a TypeScript superset language, with a parser, compiler and a selection of plugins for editors + Prettier + ESlint, etc
It's early alpha but we thought people might be interested in it. 🧵
