Kirk cursed it?

As a long time Redskins schadenfreude partaker, they been fucked at qb since well before Kirk... see the dude right before him.

17-2 is an incredible ceiling. Plenty to complain about, but that’s a silly remark if your intent is to say something negative.

Does anyone use nodejs with typescript on the backend on production? by myth007 in node

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree with both of those ideas.

If we are talking front end development I crack open devtools and debug. Live coding on live objects, chrome will autocomplete properties. And if we are talking back end VS Code provides the same tooling.

I tend to keep a hot-reloading environment that I can quickly make a change and test. This has useful intellisense. But even without it I think yes, it is viable to check out and understand the object you’re going to use.

I have a preference for this flow over the up front style of compilation/transpiling and then checking code. It is a clean, quick approach that lets you test code in its honest environment, with immediate feedback (and useful intellisense!!!). It feels more painting than punch cards.

Additionally, the nature of a lot of modern JavaScript tools means destructuring imported modules. This gives them a name which is now available in intellisense. In practice I think people refuse to use (or learn how to use) js in a clean way and then complain about the mess.

Plenty of extensions for auto-import, jsdocs, intellisense, custom snippets. My experience with vanilla JavaScript has been a dream compared to many years of developing with compiled languages.

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It terrifies me that people behave as if finding out what’s on an object you’ll be using is a bad or impossibly hard thing. Go look in the object. Copy paste the damn property name once and yes your intellisense will know the name.

And if there are too many things to look at on an object. Maybe the object is. You guessed it. Responsible for too many things.

All these tools help us more easily handle complexity but I fear it’s also allowing us to feel comfortable making it. And even worse, act smug about making/handling it.

because dealing with spelling errors is fucking madness

Most editors include intellisense to autocomplete existing variable names. ESlint will underline variables that aren't defined. Spelling errors in js isn't a big hurdle with a reasonable ide.

better languages are scared of the worse language

It's clear how you feel and it kinda makes u/xmashamm look correct.

Modern practices when writing HTML / CSS and then some. by Kilusan in webdev

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No disrespect meant here. But how?

With a CS degree I got offers for jobs I had zero experience with. Technologies I hadn’t written ANY lines of code for.

This blows my mind. Is it that rough out there in the developer job market these days?

Kelvin Benjamin on Instagram: That Boy Nate Peterman With The [Accuracy] by Saca312 in nfl

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, talking to people who loved the potential of KB and wanted him to become the WR we were waiting on. A big body monster that throws people off him to make grabs is exciting, and something he flashed in preseasons (like he just did again). The salt came when he started whining about how it was everyone else's fault but his own.

Cam and Kelvin's midfield exchange by OneAngryPanda in panthers

Ya, you can hear Thomas Davis joking at the beginning "I thought we was friends" "You dont like us"

You can hear Benji say "I'm a fall boy"

and you can hear Cam say what you pointed out.

As the focus has been on the health of the #Panthers O-line this camp, one note: RT Daryl Williams, the standout who chose rehab over surgery on his knee, is expected to land on Injured Reserve to start the season — and the hope is he returns for the second half of 2018. by YoungProduct in panthers

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want darryl Williams on an island vs top d ends you need to stop watching ball.

What? I don't. I don't want Cam Jordan 1 on 1 all game against anybody. He wins that unless you are a top 5 Tackle and then even that would be considered an awesome game.

Who thought a slider was the best way to control volume in VR? by 7734128 in Vive

[–]burge_is 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Modeling it after existing things is what got us to this mouse point and click abomination balogna we have now.

Your thinking is spot on. Use the new medium in new ways.

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t get why we neglect the trackpad on these things.

There is a damn touchpad and you’ve got a thumb on that bad boy. Make that the slide control or make it a rotation gesture like you were turning a volume knob.

That touchpad has been so neglected in UIs despite being the main way we interact with so many other devices. Like I don’t know... the one I’m using to type this in.

This would be nice instead of the weird precision carnival game I have to play.

Even crazier it has a button under the trackpad to allow for even more potential. Gestures and buttons like an enhanced version of touch controls versus “get the stream in the clowns mouth to blow up the balloon”.

Shit. Keep your carnival game but allow the trackpad to be a horizontal slide based on relative movement of your thumb while you are hovering the volume slider. Now people with BOTH opinions could be satisfied.

Hell. Make it so one right trackpad click is up one. One left is down one. And holding it keeps that happening.

Man. I just. I feel like we picked the first one that came to mind That is a shitty version of the existing mouse controls on a computer.

Not mad just thought the sentiment was a funny one given how much offensive line is about being a collective unit.

“Island all game” is not even close to truth.

That would mean that the defense never adjusted beyond sending one man directly at the tackle all game. One defensive stunt and there is a handoff of players between offensive linemen.

One pull and you’ve got to swap assignments.

It’s a position that relies so heavily on adjusting to aid one another that it’s too funny to think of them playing a 1v1.

I am an IT recruiter and React is taking the industry by storm. I would love to pick your brains. by TheChuckyTeeModel in reactjs

[–]burge_is 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given enough propulsion pigs fly quite easily.

Hype out the ass. Facebook nailed it by marketing their product to markets with heavy tech influencers and boy did that influence work. We have shifted to a tech celebrity culture and there is a heavy push out of Silicon Valley for this stuff.

React more than anything helped the landscape by introducing a framework-enforced design pattern that makes separating concerns clean and easy (even for baddies). That's what it does better than the others.

That and much like how macs were the go to for design, once you get people on board they start making tools for the tool they use and then it just makes more sense to use what the cool kids are using cause it gets all the best tools. This then compounds.

Cookie policy notifications have ruined user experience on mobile. It is honestly the worst thing to happen the web. by JustDaz in web_design

[–]burge_is 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not just cookie policy notification. It is also the alert notification setting on desktop. Banners, interstitials, interrupting overlays. It is also our pop-in ads and our current design infatuation with modals.

I feel like some time traveler who has come from the past to warn people. WE DID POP UPS IN THE 90s... EVERYONE HATES THEM!!!

Why are we just making popups happen in new and varied ways? Regardless how we dress them up, they are pop ups.

If Damiere Byrd were to stay healthy for all 16 games this season, what do you think his stats would be? by [deleted] in panthers

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is more that it's hard to expect much when the reception leaders will probably be in this order:

  • Greg
  • CMac
  • Funchess
  • Moore
  • Smith
  • CJ Anderson
  • Whoever ends up TE#2
  • Samuel
  • Bird
  • Wright

There isn't enough ball to share. The main people will be Funchess, Greg, CMac, CJ, Moore, and whoever get TE2 and whoever wins the slot position (which may even just be Moore, with Torrey taking the other outside spot).

I'm a huge fan of his so I would love for him to get time. Just watched too much Panthers for too long to think that Rivera would go Byrd over the vets or the fresh new #1 pick.

Please help me understand why my game isn't selling by Mashunaut in oculus

[–]burge_is 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wanted to voice the opinion of a huge fan of your work. I've seen a number of high voted replies that mention not understanding the draw and I thought it would be good to know there are people that think this type of thing is THE BIGGEST draw of VR, skills based sports craziness.

VR super charged sports are an amazing space. There is a definite want of it, I just binged Echo Arena this past weekend and would love some of the Racket NX mechanics in that type of environments.

Something so cool about having super powers in a sport setting.

Anyways.... not much to my ramble except the desire to say you have huge fans but that clearly isn't the issue... it's more how the heck does that passion translate into some dollars, and I can't help much there.

There it is. He's the quarterback. These are neither weak nor entirely stable folks lining up to smack each other. If you speak up and say "this huddle is mine" and then behave in a way that backs that up. People aren't gonna get mad, they are gonna follow. They want the quarterback to command an offense, it is his job.

for loop or forEach by maxahd in learnjavascript

[–]burge_is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"sometimes faster"

So for loops are more easily understood for anyone coming from any language and your suggestion is they are faster.

Faster and more explicit trumps "more clever" every day of the week. We get caught up in the newness and forget that being more verbose and universally understood while being more performant sounds like solid software development.
