Did I miss the part where he suggested what to use that's better than React?

At this point we've been through enough front end churn, React is fine. Components, static typing, a javascript/html based templating language. Server and client side rendering. With Next.js my DX is better than anything I've used before.

Vanilla JS? Yea, no thanks. I'm not going back to square one, choose your own adventure custom framework because of your skill issue.

I worked at a large web dev company and for years they had this attitude.

Then one designer put in his two weeks and spent the majority of the time downloading all the site files for all of the sites the company had built over the two years he was there. We're talking hundreds of static sites where he took the all the design docs and static HTML/CSS/JS files one would need to recreate them somewhere else.

Instead of going after the guy legally, they passed and then instituted the same policy. You put in your two weeks? Nah, you're out the moment you hit send on that email. Manager alerts security, who then come over to your desk. You get your jacket and whatever you walked in with and get walked out. The one designer totally ruined the company from ever letting someone stay for their two weeks.

I’ve done this multiple times, and have two instances running right now which have been active for years. One is simple and watches a smaller org:

ldapsearch … > new; diff old new > updates; mail … < updates

(On phone, pseudo code, definitely wrong)

The other is perhaps more interesting. I built a tool for a tool for a population of specialists in a large company. The tool requires ldap data synced in, and I capture the diffs. That sampling approach provides surprising insights into what’s active/hot/declining, even when the total size of the company would making tracking every employee change quite difficult.
This article is written from a lack of experience of fundamentals and it is not very rigorous, but it's kinda sorta not wrong.

I have been thinking for a while about specialising in teaching how the web came to be, so people who are non-technical can understand enough to commission work, understand proposals, etc.; because I think people have no sense of what goes on under the hood.

But increasingly I think it's junior developers and web-oriented designers who need to be taught it.

You are only getting Brendan's story, and why is Brendan going out of his way to attack Mitchell Baker? It strongly implies some powerful drive besides sharing information.
I do have some level of structure in that the messages are named and prefixed as GLOBAL or LOCAL

useEffect(() => {
document.addEventListener('GLOBAL_RELOAD_CHANNEL_INFO', loadChannelInfo)
return () => document.removeEventListener('GLOBAL_RELOAD_CHANNEL_INFO', loadChannelInfo)
}, [loadChannelInfo])

useEffect(() => {
document.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('LOCAL_CLOSE_DIALOG_ALL'))
}, [])

useEffect(() => {
const handler = () => setReloadCoverImage(Math.random().toString())
document.addEventListener('GLOBAL_RELOAD_RELOAD_COVER_IMAGE', handler)
return () => document.removeEventListener('GLOBAL_RELOAD_RELOAD_COVER_IMAGE', handler)
}, [setReloadCoverImage])

However when programming React I try to avoid even layers of abstraction beyond what is already enough complexity.

The argument against events is losing track of where they came from and what they do but honestly I found that using state to drive the application UI was vastly more complex and hard to manage and debug than event messages. It's easy to do a global search for GLOBAL_RELOAD_RELOAD_COVER_IMAGE to see what a message does than to trawl your way throw the harrowing complexity and intertwined complexity of state, props, renders and re-renders.

And when I can, I attach the events to local elements in the component rather than document, to further reduce the scope of the complexity.
Svelte, however, has its very specific way of working compared to all the other usual frontend frameworks: virtually no runtime (library) supporting the app and many things happening at compile time instead and via generated code.

It also seems quite focused. If anything is to become bloated, I would expect SvelteKit rather than Svelte, to become larger.

I also don't know how much of the bloat is to be attributed to React vs. its usual friends or their numbers, and maybe SvelteKit actually helps keeping things in order in the Svelte ecosystem.

Svelte has also been around for a while now.

(Note that I have only small experiences with Svelte, none yet with SvelteKit)
Then they can be blocked from selling the rights without the liability of maintaining the service being attached.

That's effectively how it ends up, except with a slight advantage to the company. They cut you off and tell you that you don't have to work anymore, but in the off chance you get a job within 60 days, they don't have to keep paying you. They can also preserve their cashflow by not paying you up front.

But since you technically have to be "on the books", if something like Slack is tied to your status in the company directory, it's easier to just leave it.

> good luck logistically scaling a dev team from 2 founders to 100 devs

You'll never need 100 devs to work on a single elixir project. I as a solo dev built out the backend for my startup to profitable. We keep discussing bringing on a new developer during the occasional crunch but its been 5 years of operation and we haven't really needed it aside from increasing the bus factor. features go out fast enough as is. elixir is very productive.

based on my experience, if you need more than 5 developers, you should separate out features to independent systems and have them communicate with each other over established interfaces. Then you can use the language specialized to the task at hand. Either way, 100 engineers on a single codebase is not going to be efficient no matter what language you are working in.

That said, this article is about startup. the name of the game is to crank out features and aquire users. elixir is performant enough that you're not blowing your budget on cloud infrastructure and high level enough that you can build out and maintain your mvp with a skeleton crew.

If you run into a situation where you suddenly need to scale to 100 engineers, thats a great problem. it means you have revenue.
Steve Jobs' Apple fought for it. They leveraged iPod dominance to force the industry to swallow lawful ripping through iTunes, then 128kbps Internet download with infinite re-download rights and weak FairPlay DRM, then 256kbps without DRM few years later. The industry resisted with everything and lost, in the process road-killing Sony Walkman brand as well. The music world wasn't a paradise from the beginning and by itself.

I think it should be illegal to label access to digital content as "buy" or "purchase" if you can't download the digital file DRM-free. If the way they presented the option to pay implied ownership, you should be able to own that digital file.

In addition to not being a one-to-one port, Sudo for Windows is a completely unrelated command.

> it does the same function which is to elevate a unprivileged command

That's only one of the use cases of Sudo. Here's a description of Sudo from the official manual [1]:

> sudo, sudoedit — execute a command as another user

Sudo for Windows can't do that. It's mentioned in its FAQ:

> the sudo command on Windows does not support running programs as other users

Sudo for Windows is like a cat command that can't concatenate files or a touch command that doesn't update timestamps.

[1]: https://www.sudo.ws/docs/man/1.8.18/sudo.man/

[2]: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/sudo/
Do you think that’s inherent to the language, or a result of common patterns?

How do other languages, like Python, scale better to more devs, besides more devs available? All that comes to mind immediately is modules in Elixir being globally available, but I’m genuinely curios about your experiences.

I too am not going back to square one, and I find React to be fine for e.g. a Gutenberg component.

But I'm looking at tiny web interfaces for microcontrollers at the moment, and as an experienced Vue developer I find petite-vue and a classless CSS framework an appealing compromise for designs without a build step.

With a build step, maybe preact?
I'm so sorry Walter Shawlee is no longer with us, we need advocates and enthusiasts like him to carry on historical knowledge of practices and traditions especially so when they were so deeply embedded in engineering culture as was the slide rule.

As I type this my Faber Castell Novo-Duplex 2/83N slide rule is sitting on my lap—it's same model as shown in the article and prised by Walter Shawlee. I still use it regularly as it's often quicker than using a calculator. Also, it has one great advantage over a calculator in that its scales are visual and often I can look along them to read off multiple solutions to a problem without even having to reposition the slide. That is, it has properties that not even calculators have.

This 2/83N is also a prised possession of mine, it used to belong to my mechanical engineer father who bought it in the 1960s. It's a wonderful tool and it's in still perfect condition along with its case, instructions and its quick reference table (shame I can't post a photo of it here).

I believe tools of this quality have historical value and I—as its temporary custodian—have a duty to look after it carefully.

> People arguing that would be happy if no animals were farmed at all.

This. It's a propaganda angle to try to get non-activists to support their group's demands by adding a spin to their claims that makes it more engaging.

The same blend of propaganda also includes things like showing a picture of a pig showing only its eyes, devised to underline their similarities with human eyes. They then proceed to draw a parallel between slaughtering pigs and humans. Another take is portraying cattle as pets, and you wouldn't kill your own pets now would you?

In the end it's just propaganda to try to convince non-militants to unwittingly support a cause. It doesn't matter if it's arbitrary or outlandish. The goal is to sway you to do the militant's bidding.
But once they receive the bad news, their motivation for revenge increases, which is why similar policies exist in many workplaces. Trust isn’t a univariate, piecewise defined function like you suggest.

Yes, it's normal in IT in Europe to fire someone, revoke their access and still pay them for 1-3 months. On the other hand many IT professionals work b2b so some of the normal employment policies do not apply. On b2b contract the other side usually is obliged to pay for 1 month.

People would drive less if we didn't keep building everything to be only accessible via roads, would eat less beef if we didn't subsidize it, and would waste less electricity if carbon taxes made it cost the true amount. And it would feel less like a burden because everyone would be doing it too, so you don't have to put up with the unjustice of other people getting richer off your sacrifices.

While I'm all for trying to lower your individual consumption, asking everyone nicely to use less WILL NOT solve the problem, the same way asking companies to use less won't either.

This is a coordination problem and can only be solved by governmental action.

Sure, but in this case, maintaining the digital properties surely won't bleed Sony dry.

Letting people download the content DRM-free for a period of time while sunsetting the service wouldn't bleed them dry either.

It's not even a mistake Sony made (unlike Allianz or whichever firm it was), it was a deal that they decided to renege on after taking money simply because they can.
I hope that in a few generations, Apple will make one that is all about lowering the weight. Let's say they can lower the weight from 650g to 350g by removing the metal enclosure, front glass, front display, and smaller components. I would buy that to be able to work on the go and it'd be an amazing piece of entertainment device.

Finally, I'd like to share what I'm viewing with friends and family such as a movie screen or a 3D model fixed in the same position.
I wouldn't trust that data at all without associated data on reporting rates over time. There's absolutely a crisis, and it's bad enough that people have stopped bothering to report thefts to the police since they know nothing will come of it.

That's a really interesting question! The two cities with which I am most familiar are San Francisco and London, and (though I'd never thought about it before) my navigational concepts of them are very different.

Getting around San Francisco is, uh, grid-like: I think in terms of "corner of X and Y", and then the relationship between myself and my destination on a coordinate plane. Getting there becomes a series of maneuvers - some of them indirect, for route-efficiency reasons (like, this street has timed lights, or this one permits left turns) - which carry with them very few (street-level, at least) visual images of the route.

London is all about pathways, a choice between more and less direct connections between my location and where I'm going. Just about every landmark and decision-point triggers a visual memory of that specific location and choice.

In San Francisco I can point fairly confidently towards a given destination, drive that direction, and find it by "feel" - eg, by intersecting one of the two cross streets on the coordinate plane. In London, I couldn't do that on a more granular than borough / neighborhood level - like, I'd know how to get to, say, Camberwell from a given location, but not in precisely which cardinal direction it lies, and once I get there I'd need to rely on landmark-based directions (or nowadays, GPS).

Navigation in London is more complex, I suppose (San Francisco has its quirks!), but the conceptual framework it requires leaves me with a more detailed and enjoyable sense of the city itself.

That's one person's experience. I'd be curious to know the extent to which it generalizes.
