Proposal to rename the type assertion operator in #TypeScript (`as`) to "gaslighting operator"

Is there a locale flag (POSIX or BCP47) to indicate how "educated" the expressions are (formulas vs formulae, choice of entirely differet words, etc.)

But I assume, this would be hard to standardize

I scored 13/28 on https://jsdate.wtf and all I got was this lousy text to share on social media.

But jokes aside, I had great fun—and quite a few headscratches, yaw drops, and sighs 😅

Fellow people in #softwareDevelopment: How do you do "#CodeReview post-processing", meaning what do you do with the review comments that either weren't (considered) directly actionable during the MR/PR (e.g. follow-up tickets) or contained general feedback/shortcomings that have to be addressed outside the scope of the MR/PR (e.g. improve our handbook, "replace this in the whole codebase", "we need to discuss this as a team" etc.)?

Don't force software developers into using and producing #AI tools. If you want prompt engineers, get prompt engineers, not software developers—these are two vastly(!) different professions (for a reason!).

Otherwise, the industry will beg for coders in a decade, if even that far into the future—mark my words. Because they will either have quitted, unlearned or ever learned coding.

#amCoding #amProgramming #ArtificialIntelligence #generativeAI #genAI #softwareDevelopment #softwareEngineering

#artificialIntelligence still can't reasonably(!) replace you (sure, you can be fired due to the #AI hype nonetheless), but AI can destroy the whole industry sector by destroying the trust in honest programmers:

Another #CodeGolf puzzle for #JavaScript #WebDev people:

I have n functions that type one argument of the same type and return a boolean.

The current usage is:
function a(b) {
return c(b) && d(b)
}

I boiled down a to
a = (b) => [c, d].every(fn => fn(x))

I assume, this can be further boiled down via bind/ #PartialApplication/ #Currying

What do you think?

When using a #MySQL database, is it possible in one go, when adding a new column to an existing table, to use one default value for existing columns (initial migration, so to speak), but another for every new row going forward (real default)?

Scenario: I want to set the value in pre-existing columns to true, but in all subsequent rows to false by default.

Has someone attempted to build a #CodeReview tool that relies more on #git itself like using git notes and git trailers and such?

#TypeScript devs: I have the following class, emitting the type error below. How is it that TS isn't able to infer the type of the props correctly and how can I make it?

#amCoding #amProgramming #webDevelopment #softwareDevelopment #softwareEngineering

class MyClass {
readonly key: string | number | boolean
readonly value: string | number | boolean

constructor(key: string | number | boolean, value: string | number | boolean | undefined) {
this.key = key
this.value = value ?? key
}
}

enum MyEnum {
A = 1,
B = 2,
}

const myInstance = new MyClass('A', 'a')
const myIndex = MyEnum[myInstance.key]
// Error: Type 'false' cannot be used as an index type.(2538)
// Error: Type 'true' cannot be used as an index type.(2538)

#TypeScript/ #Vue devs: I have this generic component using defineModel(). Now, I want to make the type conditional:
– if props.multiple, return T[] | undefined
– else, return T | undefined

How would you approach this?

#amProgramming #amCoding #webDevelopment #softwareDevelopment #softwareEngineering

<!-- GenericComponent.vue -->
<template>
<select v-if="multiple"></select>
<select v-else multiple></select>
</template>

<script lang="ts" setup generic="T">
const props = defineProps({
multiple: Boolean
})

defineModel<T | T[] | undefined>()
</script>

<!-- SomeComponent.vue -->
<template>
<GenericComponent @update:modelValue="(model: string) => console.log(model.toLowerCase()">
</template>
<!-- Error: Cannot call toLowerCase() on string[] -->
<!-- Error: Cannot call toLowerCase() on undefined -->

When in doubt if your comment an a #PullRequest/ #MergeRequest/ #CodeReview or the like was substantial enough to be credited via a git trailer (e.g. Co-authored-by), what would you prefer that the other developer would do by default in that case?
