Cause the free alternatives are trash, so… it’s not like “free is better” is always true

The designer team once did a toggle button with the inverse logic and I was so confused when I had to implement that. It must be my antithesis.
- Comment on The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Simple Websites 9 months ago:
It works if you visited the website already but the first time it breaks: reloading fixes this while emptying the caches breaks it again
- Comment on The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Simple Websites 9 months ago:
Your theme toggle is confusing, it shows the sun when the dark mode is enabled and vice versa

- Comment on How do I convince my company to add tests for FE? 11 months ago:
Yeah I don’t think unit testing would be useful. I don’t think though that integration tests etc are useless though, more so now that it is possible to test the UI states too. I didn’t know playwright to be fair, I read it “automatically” generates tests? Maybe I did misunderstand
- Comment on How do I convince my company to add tests for FE? 11 months ago:
They know. We have had a production website being literally unusable, sucking up a lot of resources for a bug.
We have a client which is MAD cause the project is riddled with bugs, but the solution somehow is paying more attention. Except that it clearly isn’t feasible to pay more attention when you have to check, recheck and check again the same thing over and over… They say it’s a waste cause you can’t catch UI, and you will spend the same amount of time NOT writing tests; obviously this is all crap, but they somehow think they are smarter than google or any other small or big company that do write test
- Comment on How do I convince my company to add tests for FE? 11 months ago:
It’s pointless if they get mad at me for “wasting time” writing tests and nobody maintains or write them.

… yes, a non profit is not meant to earn a profit. A profit is earning something more than what you need to be functioning.

Just add blockchain to something, it will show em!

Non profit doesn’t mean they don’t earn anything

don’t use the git cli. In my professional life I don’t know a single person who does
I do, I find it much simpler than using the GUIs
- Comment on What is your favorite software stack for full-stack web development? 1 year ago:
I meant as in with Express and similar
- Comment on What is your favorite software stack for full-stack web development? 1 year ago:
Nuxt + graphql or C# (the latter I’m still studying but it’s not bad).
Definitely not JS or Java
- Comment on What is your favorite programming language? 1 year ago:
JS/TS cause it’s my job and easy quite fast to write code in it, so it’s good for quick prototypes (or when I want to go dirty). Rust for when I want to write something actually good. It has a better ecosystem, building tools, and the DX is much better compared to C++ which is just an eldritch clusterfuck where dreams die
