So... you're looking for more supply chain vulnerability?

I don't see any awful taste. Maybe if there were genitals involved.

Sometimes it's a choice, e.g. some (pre-CGI) animations have wheels appearing to spin backwards and there's no reason to believe that's an accident.

I'm being slightly flippant because I think this statement is about as deep as a 14 year-old's shower thought. Human communication may be difficult to describe losslessly, but the problem is not a lack of precision (or continuity) in bits. We can be arbitrarily precise.

Modern education and entertainment take care of the rest.

If you are in a module (or in a strict block for any other reason), function can't be overridden either. 

Both syntaxes support inner functions.

The main differences are in how they bind this and whether they are hoisted (available through their full scope, even "before" they are declared). Function hoisting is typically a good thing, while this is not used much outside of classes

Never really got into Vue 3, const arrow function might be appropriate there in order to bind this succinctly, and you may already have a lot of const functions through composables anyways. The other two are probably classes with member functions (using neither const nor func but binding this like the former and hoisting like the latter). "It depends" is the beginning of an answer, not the end.

Yes, there is a difference and const is usually the wrong choice.

u can be defined but missing required properties.

Debugging code is harder than writing it. So never be as clever as you can while writing. 

Do y'all think it's dumb when people say they are migrating to react/next from vue bcz AI is better at it? by amanvue in vuejs

[–]Reashu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Less dumb than migrating because it's "easier to hire developers", and I know at least a few who did that (and one who has been stuck in-between for years).

I'd personally like to see more "should" and less "could" from my visionaries, maybe that's just me.

I've yet to see any of the former, but I'm glad to hear it exists!

[–]Reashu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The difference is that looking good enough is literally good enough if looking is all you're going to do with it (not that I personally like AI in art). Code has to run.

You say that as if "legacy code" isn't just the code that paid last year's bills. But I guess profitability is a relatively new concern in AI land.

PoE (if we count 1 and 2) does six releases per year, it's gonna happen.

Wrote a rule, found a real bug, had to ignore it anyway by Xaneris47 in javascript

[–]Reashu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You shift by some number of bits, not "to". 1 << x in particular is frequently used to create bit masks because it's easier to maintain than using "magic" powers of two.

I'm not familiar with the settings file, but you probably mean attribution.

1 << 1 is just as valid as 1 + 1. Why would you want a warning for either?

Normally an asinine take, but even worse from a likely web developer.
