@theo Why don’t you try to work with them to understand their complaint?

Just got an angry email from a European user who canceled their T3 Chat sub over my stance on the UK “Online Safety Bill”

@msimoni Not clear why you don’t appreciate readability, but honestly this is how I’d expect it to be written. Also baring in mind how much this single method seems to be doing, I’d probably say the entire approach is off.

Rob Pike is one of my top 5 programmer heroes, but I have no idea what he was thinking when he designed Go.

@theo Quickbooks regularly fails to sync banking records with no warning, and sometimes syncs other records twice. When it breaks they make us remove the connection, manually delete records and then add them back. Open banking APIs just can’t be this difficult to work with.

It's insane how bad QuickBooks is and how nobody's built a real competitor yet

@eduardoboucas [question] This is very cool! What’s going on under the hood? [minor] The example returns 400 but it feels more of a 409 😉

Support for conditional writes has landed in Netlify Blobs. The `set` and `setJSON` now let you perform create-only and update-only atomic operations. For example, here's how you can use the `onlyIfNew` option to write an entry only if the key is new. 🧵

@theo There are definitely people asking because they’d like you to explain why Postgres was something you chose not to use, based on how widely it’s adopted. If that’s something you’ve covered in the video then great, just tell them this or give them a tl;dr

Thinking too much about the "why not just use Postgres" thing, decided to build a basic system for people who genuinely struggle to understand INTRODUCING THE THEO SUGGESTION TEST

@BiteYourBrum @mozi78 He’ll be remembered for his bravery and composure

@ArthurMingard @mozi78

Unbridled horror!!!!!

@BiteYourBrum @mozi78 That’s if he makes it home

@mozi78 Hi!!! Ian’s wife here 👋🏼 For added lols to this, he’s at work with no access to his phone until 5pm so he has no idea him running away from asbo geese has gone viral. Can’t wait to see his little face when he comes home later totally confused 😂😂

web2 : amazon web3 : coinbase/ftx (same thing) web4 : ssh - secure shops/secure shell (same thing)

@thorstenball I haven’t stopped, rather paused at the point it wouldn’t recognise Makefile syntax. I still pull every update and will do indefinitely

If you tried Zed before but then stopped using it, what made you stop? Hit me with everything you got.

@t3dotgg Delphi

What programming language frustrates you the most?

@DarlaLek @simon_schama Why are you so happy to defend genocide?

@ArthurMingard @simon_schama You think that sex slavery is good, then? Well it does have a long history. newafricanmagazine.com/16616/

Is she especially proud of Yemen for reintroducing slavery?

@anne_goldgar @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama Court ruling and international consensus do though. It’s a genocide and you are a racist 👍

@ArthurMingard @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama Asserting this doesn’t make it true.

@anne_goldgar @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama Wrong again

@ArthurMingard @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama In what way reliable? No combatants killed? Virtually no men, only women and children? Sorry, this is pure propaganda. As for genocide, there is a standard definition of it, and the Israeli campaign’s practice of warning civilians before attacks is the exact opposite of that.

@anne_goldgar @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama They are reliable and yes it is a genocide. The fact you’re wrong is something you’ll need to think long and hard about when the time is right

@ArthurMingard @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama Maybe so, but they are nevertheless completely unreliable. Nor does this conflict represent the normal definition of a genocide. If anything Hamas’ intentions are the ones that are genocidal, given their sworn intention to kill all Jews worldwide.

@anne_goldgar @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama The figures are widely recognised by other organisations. The figures come from a shared understanding of the impact of the genocide. I trust you understand this

@ArthurMingard @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama No, but the Gaza Ministry of Health indubitably is.

@DarlaLek @simon_schama None. She doesn’t need one

@ArthurMingard @simon_schama Well, what is her excuse then?

@anne_goldgar @drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama I’ve got a feeling everything you don’t agree with is KKHHHAAAAAMMMAAAAASSSSSS

@drsaqibqureshi @simon_schama That is, Hamas

@DarlaLek @simon_schama It’s not likely

@ArthurMingard @simon_schama Maybe she is really into sex slaves. middleeasteye.net/news/yemen-eth…
