Why not use Node’s built-in testing platform with node --test for server-side purposes or small projects? You can run typescript too. The only drawback is the lack of an expect function, but you can easily built your own or use mine, it’s called tinyexpect.

I don’t think the latest Android is designed for 2000mAh phones. Maybe Android 4 or lower could theoretically work better with this capacity range.

People with friends, relationships, families and kids will recover more easily. The rest of us, we’re doomed. The more you enjoy little things, the better for your mental health. Laughing helps, I used to laugh every day about silly things, now I find everything dumb or pathetic.

Re:VW and Renault end talks to develop affordable EV
on Saturday May 18, 2024 @12:02PM (#40400038)
VW is going down. The market is way too competitive, and they can't keep up. Imposing sanctions on China is the only way for them to get back on their feet.

Re:Why programmers choose convenience over performance?
on Sunday May 12, 2024 @02:42AM (#40332637)
Majority f laptops today are equipped with 8 gigs of RAM. However, this isn't enough because most developers no longer write software based on the current hardware specs of the market as they used to. It's not that it's impossible, they just don't care about user's hardware and they focus on developing software with lot's of features.
Why programmers choose convenience over performance?
Several tools are resource hungry, making it challenging for small businesses to keep up with server costs. Zod for example is 150 slower than regular typeof checks. I wrote small article for those who are interested https://www.drakos.me/article/Zod-is-150-times-slower. The problem is not Zod, but rather the programmers who lack the ability to write efficient code. As I write this, my VSCode...

Node.js runs everywhere and has the most popular frameworks, which are still maintained by thousands of developers. You also get serverless functions and NPM with millions of public packages.

WebAssembly is the Flash of 2010. Even if companies adapted I would rather block it from running on my machine. I prefer transparency these days because almost every company is abusing user’s privacy.

The moment he clarifies about his position on the AI market makes him another seller deeply trying to sell his product. It’s like those articles from 90’s and 00’s speculating the end of the C language with titles like “C is dead” or “C is going to be replaced in the near Future”. The year will be 2060 and C will still dominate the market.

Node.js is a mature framework and never had problems with it. I also write my own code and avoid installing useless packages. Truth is everyone likes fresh projects like Deno but their ecosystem is doomed. I mean all I need is Redis and it doesn't work the way supposed to.

GTK is an excellent, innovative tool for those who haven't tried creating GUIs with HTML/CSS (Electron), Android Studio, or SwiftUI.
Every time I try creating something with GTK, I always end up cursing programmers who built it.

What's wrong with Electron? Etcher is a tool with 5 minutes maximum running time, it's not Slack where you have to run on background for hours. Also size is irrelevant these days, you can download a 150 mb file in 2 seconds.
