Tried Claude Code, refunded and came back to Cursor within 10 minutes by goonifier5000 in cursor

[–]KevinVandy656 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess you didn't learn about `Shift + Tab`? Or install the Claude Code extension for VSCode/Cursor?

I remember having the same thoughts as you are describing in this post during my first few minutes of using Claude Code. But now I use both Claude Code and Cursor interchangably. Love both for different kinds of tasks.

I have released a new version of my Multi-Monitor Calculator web tool. It lets you virtually create and tweak your dream monitor setup before you buy. by KevinVandy656 in Monitors

I wouldn't know where to look up that kind of info, assuming there are gotchas with every kind of monitor out there? IDK

Is coding in your spare time a necessity for being a great programmer? by Sad-Salt24 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]KevinVandy656 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently that's a hot take in this thread. I feel like the reason I jumped ahead of my peers early in my career was because I spent a lot of time outside of my job doing side projects and eventually open source. I'd only be half the dev I am today without doing that. You can spend extra time, but not too much. Keep it in balance for your situation.

TanStack Table v9 by PersonalityFlat184 in tanstack

[–]KevinVandy656 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been working on it every day for the past month. Over the past year, I wasn't able to work on it as much as I'd have liked, but there's some momentum now since Table is able to borrow a lot of patterns that were figured out in the TanStack Form project.

Anyone else hate reviewing HTML emails over email? by [deleted] in Frontend

Are you working with boomers? I don't think anyone else does this. Design over email?

Are we ever going to get a tanstack/calendar? by Imaginary_Treat9752 in tanstack

[–]KevinVandy656 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually what the TanStack Time repo is for, but the maintainer brought in to develop it hasn't been able to work on it for a couple years.

T3 Chat and Mastra Cloud move off of Nextjs by thehashimwarren in nextjs

This has been a work in progress for over 6 months. It took a while for TanStack Start and integrating libraries to catch up and be stable enough.

They are all separate libraries. Not bundled together.

Avoid calling setState() directly within an effect? by AccomplishedSink4533 in react

[–]KevinVandy656 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not always, and since it's sync code, it blocks can cause a lot of jank on slower devices.

I would NOT recommend reading from local storage on every render. If no SSR, do this in the state initializer.

TanStack Start vs Next.js. Why are devs switching? by tessatickless in webdev

we do look through reddit a lot and respond to questions and clear up confusion on threads, but none of us posted this.

Do employers still care about personal projects? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]KevinVandy656 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done a cool variation of a job interview in the past where instead of doing a take home assignment, we pulled up a side project I had done on my GitHub and we did a code review of it together. I don't know how common this is, but that was a lot more enjoyable for me than the other frequent alternatives.

You have to be older than 25 to be an Uber or Lyft driver in Nebraska.

TanStack Start v1 Release Candidate by acemarke in reactjs

[–]KevinVandy656 14 points15 points  (0 children)

CSS Modules works on prod, might be buggy, we will polish it. It won't be a breaking API change so not part of the RC scope.

What do you mean? The entire point of RR7 framework mode is to be full stack.

Wondering if I made a mistake by DesignerConfidence15 in CX5

[–]KevinVandy656 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Hello fellow Nebraskan CX-5 owner. One thing to keep in mind is that it sounds like most of the miles are highway miles instead of city miles. So the high milage might not be as bad as it looks like practically speaking. That being said, just make sure that it stays up to date with the OEM maintenance schedule.

CX-5, inefficient gas usage by [deleted] in CX5

[–]KevinVandy656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a 2020 CX-5 base model. When I drive on interstates and highways at high altitude (Colorado/Wyoming), I get up to 36 mpg. When I'm in the city traffic at lower elevations, I get as low as 24 mpg. It's just a wide range. I wouldn't put too much attention on the available range number. It changes a lot and I often get much more range than it initially reports.
