Recently I had to do an update to the underlying environment a codebase ran on. This was a somewhat involved upgrade and took a longer period of time than most of our work usually does. I did it in a separate worktree, so I didn’t have to constantly rejuggle the installed dependencies in the project, and could work on two features relatively concurrently

It also provides some utility for comparing the two versions. Nothing you couldn’t do other ways, but still useful

Apple has done this many times before. Over even more frivolous patents (i.e. a glossy black rectangle)

They made their bed, now they have to lie in it

I’ve only ever worked in one codebase that didn’t need feature flags, and even then we could have used them.

Graphite is ok, but honestly it’s a solution in search of a problem

Maybe if you have a massive pr, splitting it up like this works, but that’s really a planning failure. Stories should be smaller, and if you need to keep them separate for a long time, use feature branches

No. You’d use something like rev.2020 or some other wide gamut color space. Jxr already supports this, and some programs, like the Xbox, take hdr screenshots as jxr

They can both model any color equally well, it’s just oklch works even closer to how we perceive colors changing. LAB and all derivatives are in Cartesian space, with luminance, a, and b being the defining axises. Luminance is self explanatory, but a and b are just axises of how much red/green and blue/yellow there is. It can be difficult to think of a color in how much blue it is, for example, when the color is something like nearly pure red. They both affect the hue output, so varying one can create strange, unintuitive colors

LCH works in polar space, like a color wheel. L is still luminance, c is the “colorfulness” and h is the hue. H and C let you set the same values a and b would, but in a more human way. We’re used to thinking about colors changing independent of how much of a color there is, and that’s what LCH does. Vary only the h and you get very different colors. Vary only the c and you get the same color but in different amounts of saturation, from full color to no color

True, however it occupies the same niche an ORM occupies, without the foot guns. Updating a slew of different db tables from rather clean and straightforward models is relatively simple. It tries to live somewhere between just doing everything as SQL and abstracting everything away like AR does, giving you conveniences from both approaches. You don’t get mired in scoping hell, but you don’t have big ugly messes of nearly-identical SQL statements either.

i’d recommend trying it out https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.html

Data comes out as a map or keyword list, which is then turned into the repository struct in question. If you want raw db data you can get that too. And you can have multiple structs that are backed by the same persistent dataset. It’s quite elegant.

Queries themselves are constructed using a language that is near SQL, but far more composable:

Repo.one(from p in Post, join: c in assoc(p, :comments), where: p.id == ^post_id)

Queries themselves are composable

query = from u in User, where: u.age > 18

query = from u in query, select: u.name

And can be written in a keyword style, like the above examples, or a functional style, like the rest of elixir:

User
|> where([u], u.age > 18)
|> select([u], u.name)

None of these “queries” will execute until you tell the Repo to do something. For that, you have commands like Repo.all and Repo.one, the latter of which sticks a limit: 1 on the end of the provided query

I much prefer the repository pattern, as used by sequel and Ecto

Your models are essentially just enhanced structs. They hold information about the shape of data. Generally don’t hold any validations or logic related to storing the data. You perform changes on the data using changesets, which handle validation and generating the transaction to persist the data

It works extremely well, and I’ve yet to encounter the funky problems ActiveRecord could give you

Can they build factories to brake too?

I use foam for vscode. Works great, is codium compatible, and is open source

Search input elements still don’t have a native “clear” button

JFC that’s been a thing in webkit for nearly 2 decades

This is actually built into vsc

An ad hoc sorting system for a grid of tiles on an enterprise app

Instead of sorting across row wise, it sorted columnar. So it was

A E I M
B F J N
C G K O
D H L P

Instead of

A B C D
E F G H
I J K L
M N O P

This was a requirement from the CEO. Since we used this project (dogfooding) we stuck a secret search box/command palette in, which you could hit . and then type the name of the thing you wanted and click it

Throw them into the ocean, same as all car batteries

Subaru Solana or whatever it’s called. I bought an ascent earlier this year, but it basically came down to splitting hairs when I went with it over the Solana. Absolute blast to test drive that thing, and I’d love to take it down to Moab or similar places.

Probably going to wind up leasing one next year, so I don’t have to worry about battery decline down the road

Check out Elixir’s Ecto. You basically do write SQL for querying, it’s just lightly wrapped in a functional approach.

Not if they have a way to strip watermarks too, as has happened with every other system like this

Python belongs in docker for exactly thus reason

In theory yes, but it becomes a problem of ergonomics. The transpiled library feels like a transpiled library, it doesn’t match the conventions of Nim/Zig. The best ports/wrappers/whatever typically use the C lib for all the heavy lifting and unique things, and build their own interface, that matches conventions of the calling language
