- Comment on Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish 1 year ago:
I think they still can but they have less fine control over which ad placements they disable? I’m not totally sure, but that’s what this link seems to imply support.google.com/youtube/answer/6332943?hl=en
- Comment on Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish 1 year ago:
Those YouTubers have the option to disable ads on their channel if that is truly all the revenue they need, you don’t need to make that decision for them
- Comment on Which side are you? Javascript or Typescript 1 year ago:
How can you even form an opinion on this if, as you stated in that thread, you literally have no idea what typescript is. You’re getting down voted for saying one thing is better without even knowing what the alternative is, which is a pretty objectively braindead stance to take
- Comment on My open letter to the tech industry on sexism, HR, and Linus Tech Tips 1 year ago:
This is needlessly splitting hairs, Linus Tech Tips is absolutely part of the tech industry, and the parallels to other horror stories of the tech industry are too great to ignore. The people working on these videos are tech professionals similar to yourself, they test software similar to what you make, they have a company culture similar to tech startups, and other tech professionals consume their videos giving them influence in the tech community. They may not be doing the same thing in the industry as you are, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t part of it.

That’s a great point, unions are really under utilized in tech and would help a ton with this. I’m not sure if forming a union is 100% of the solution though, there are powerful unions in hollywood and sexism has still been allowed to run rampant there for example

- Comment on Always write comments 1 year ago:
I just get AI to write my comments lol. I’ll paste the function or component and tell it to write comments in tsdocs format and it works great every time (I will also add to it sometimes of course).
Don’t get me wrong, I also write clean code with good function and variable naming, but I find comments are also useful for a few reasons; they make the code even more quickly readable, they can explain why the code is the way that it is, and my favorite reason, they make it so when you hover over a reference to the commented item in an ide you get an explanation of exactly what the code does and what it expects without having to find and read the code itself
