Once, a reliable and wise colleague told me "Use in CI what you use locally" and that has been the best devop advice that never failed me to save my time.
The second one has been, from someone else: if you can use anything else than bash, do that.

I think this is the last chance for the people in power to stop messing around before US, the people with knowledge, get pissed off and take them down with force, using the technology WE make for THEM.

I complained specifically about that and they bounced it back to me like this was safe and cannot use the machine as I want.

I don't think have seen any different since always. You have to always look for the next job, IT companies do not last, this is how it works.
It's not just a legal matter, it's objectively the economy. Even if you would enforce it, a company would not be able to make money in some cases.
Boards and top management care just about money anyway, so you'll get extra degrees of shit.

It's 100% the same also with labor unions. The company has a deficit and has to lay off. You can give up on that if it is the same in Europe.

If you are used to planning your code, and writing what you need to do, with lists and everything, it usually does a good job of creating simple functions, RegEx rules, and finding the snippet of documentation you need.
Even if I could code everything with not a single issue, it saves time.
If you have not understood yet where it helps, maybe you should play around with it a bit more.
To write unit tests is often perfect and way better than some of my colleagues, especially the old ones who don't trust and have never written tests.

Re:Help us invent CSS Grid Level 3, a.k.a. "Masonry" layout
on Tuesday April 23, 2024 @01:45PM (#40134796)
It IS grid, lvl 3. You can achieve it with:
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: masonry;
This is however limited to webkit. I implemented it and ditched in October 2023 already for my private news feed in gallery mode.
Re:Help us invent CSS Grid Level 3, a.k.a. "Masonry" layout
on Tuesday April 23, 2024 @01:39PM (#40134729)
I evaluate the CSS updates based on the gap in masonry layout achievement. It's one of the most important layouts that have existed for more than a decade and should have been the only achievement after flexbox and grid.
If you have a bunch of media, unless you have a narrow container like FB/IG, that's the only way to go. The alternative is fixed ratios.
Anyone who has been working in FE knows it.

I would recommend you to upload everything using Netlify since it's free and you just have to click 2 buttons.
In this way, you may have a demo online, which is the overwhelming top advantage of the web compared to anything else around programming.
Re:Ask HN: Why did Frontend development explode in complexity?
on Monday January 02, 2023 @11:57AM (#34220195)
It's actually quite elementary and obvious if you have been in the market long enough: from websites it shifted to web apps, which have a different type of and higher complexity.
Beside that, also the websites got more complex, as a wider range of people started to use them, as well as different types of devices, languages, purpose and so on.

You can build a:

- ML prototypes
