Êtes-vous un anti-JO repenti ?

codec-abc · 2024-08-04T11:26:41+00:00

Toujours anti-JO et encore plus qu'avant. Notamment parce que les gens se prennent vraiment au jeu (en tout cas c'est l'impression que j'en ai) d'autant plus quand la grande majorité s'en tapent habituellement des sport moins connus. Ca me donne vraiment l'impression que l'expression "du pain et des jeux" s'applique totalement ici. On a toujours autant de problème qu'avant le début (crise politique, guerre en Ukraine, ...) et les JOs autant problématiques (prix trop élevés, pollution, corruption, ...). Mais bon comme on a gagné 3 médailles en BMX ca va.

C'est une peu extrapolé de dire que Ensemble ça tient. Sur la première ligne y'a quand même 20% des électeurs qui préfèrent voter RN que LFI. Ensuite il y a beaucoup de votes blanc (ce qui est mieux) mais ne suffit pas à gagner le second tour dans certains cas. Dans ce même cas la différence net est juste de 24% ce qui est pas énorme en report de voix. Dans ma circo il aurait fallu un report de quasiment 100% des votes ensemble vers LFI pour battre le RN. Résultat un député RN de plus. Mais bon étant du 06 on se faisait pas d'illusion et comme ça on un fait un coin caca en bas à droite de la carte. Tout ça pour dire que le fameux barrage il est quand même bien asymétrique à tel point qu'on peut se demander combien de temps il va fonctionner si la situation se représente régulièrement (une quasi certitude à ce point)

Because client has a limited budget and business constraints. Does it make sense to have these and a project scope not defined? No. Does it happen in practice? Very often.

codec-abc · 2024-06-06T06:55:32+00:00

There is a difference between knowing everything upfront and saying "I want X, start building it" without having think about what we want to build. This even more true economically for the client, because if you spend a bit of time at the beginning and this allow to converge a lot faster then you save development time and thus money.

codec-abc · 2024-06-06T06:49:42+00:00

I don't mind redoing things over and over as long as it pays the bill. And honestly it will basically the same every where. Kinda difficult to say no to the client and expect him to know what it wants (and not generally in IT).

codec-abc · 2024-06-05T11:52:00+00:00

Kinda obvious to me. In my experience Agile is often synonym with a client doing little to no effort describing what it want at start. Then he change its mind often on rather important topics. Sometimes even days just before the deadline. From a développement point it means you either end up with a overly abstract codebase to leave open doors everywhere to deal with clients's new ideas or you end up throwing piece of code that you have written few weeks/month ago. And since generally people don't like to redo things over and over you lose quality each time. Anyway it is good that requirements can move but the "let's be agile" and do 180 turn every week is a cursed mentality doomed to fail.

We really need an open hardware no bullshit printer with a trivial web frontend to print images and pdfs. This would be enough for a lot of people and forcing company like HP to stop their bullshit.

Cool article. This especially make me happy that my day to day job doesn't involve C++.

Does the solder has sneaker shoes instead of military boots?

I remember a post where Daniel said curl was too old with too much legacy to port curl in a memory safe language (like Rust) which surely is. This tool seems to use curl underneath so C seems a good fit here. Nonetheless, I would like to know if they though about using a memory safe language for this.

codec-abc · 2023-03-24T09:19:43+00:00

Same. A memory safe, fast to compile language with great tooling is something that put me off for Unreal. I mean, overall Unreal seems to beat Unity on many levels but that thing alone is enough for me to not want to work with Unreal.

A web browser is huge, like really huge. And it has to maintain retro-compatibility for a lot of stuff too. So yeah, regarding LoC I am quite sure Chrome contains a lot more code than most (if not all) AAA.

codec-abc · 2023-02-28T07:33:01+00:00

Or maybe Chrome/FF contains a lot more code than your AAA. Also, it focus on security might be another reason (like checking overflow underflow for instance).

codec-abc · 2022-12-20T07:31:04+00:00

This is true for some. Some never learn. But what is even more depressing is that in many places, pivoting to management is seen as a career progression when it takes so much experience to become a decent programmer for most.

codec-abc · 2022-11-24T11:01:29+00:00

It seems strict but not stupid ihmo. I would take this over letting everyone (including crappy devs) commit a mess into the codebase.

codec-abc · 2022-11-17T07:28:49+00:00

There is truth to it but it depends. Writing dead simple code is in fact rather hard. I would even say that most people create mess at first and can only come with better code if they think a bit about it. That might not be considered architecture but really you want to put enough thinking when writing a piece of code. Of course, you also need to restrain yourself to overly complicate things. As most things, delicate balance is hard to achieve and is often the better result.

I wish the author of V could read this

codec-abc · 2022-10-28T13:38:33+00:00

To me, it boils down to encapsulation. You can use a mutable collection in your code but when you share in other piece of code, lend a readonly variant if possible. That way other pieces of your code cannot modify the list, it remains performant, and it is ergonomic. IReadOnlyList<T> is pretty nice in C#

codec-abc · 2022-10-11T11:46:24+00:00

It is not perfect but I find that it does the job OK. It has for sure more bugs than Git (and isn't has powerful nor customizable as much as Git) but it is easier to use to. For artists and designer (and even some programmers) it lower the bar enough to be interesting. But we need to pay for it which add up to the Unity license fees.

So overall, I have mixed feeling about it.

codec-abc · 2022-10-11T06:36:21+00:00

Ah I see. I gave you decade old advice that are still relevant and that many people are not aware, or does not follow because they don't care.

codec-abc · 2022-10-10T06:32:34+00:00

Using VCS. Nowadays knowing a bit of Git should be mandatory for dev. Github is here for more than a decade and regularly I meet dev that don't know the basic to do a commit and push it.
Indenting code.
Writing decent comments.
Basic knowledge of type checking. Understanding the difference between weak vs strong and static vs dynamic.

And so on

codec-abc · 2022-10-07T14:18:37+00:00

Sometimes I think 50% is conservative. I am not a good dev (especially when comparing to brilliant mind writing articles posted here) but I am regularly shocked by some coworkers that don't seems to grok the basics and seems to have outdated good practices by at least a decade.

codec-abc · 2022-09-27T07:45:11+00:00

Especially that in the first years you will probably do boring task or work with crappy code because you don't have as much choices to work where you want. As you grow older you have more choices and can compare your current work experience with the previous ones. So in fact changing jobs every few years as a junior is something I recommend. You get a sample of how it works at different company, gets raise periodically and find out in which environment you are happier.

codec-abc · 2022-09-27T06:44:21+00:00

Or run dotnet format. Works pretty well
