  1. Its obvious that the is-positive-integer would need three dependencies 1. is-number 2. is-positive 3. is-integer

  2. This is why you need a physical kill switch, something that blows up your server room.

  3. Today I got pulled over when commuting to work, I thought I was done before because my license has been suspended for a month for past overspeeding offenses. The officer asked me "Do you know why I pulled you over?" I knew I was done for but I replied anyways "I was going over the speed limit?" but to my surprise the officer said this: "No, the Cloudflare Sales Team wants to talk with you."

  4. I swear there was a time where Prime could make you feel bad for not writing Rust, even if it was jokingly, and now this. This is the reason why you don't look up to techfluencers for recommendations, most of them are spontaneous and don't even know what they want themselves. If you truly want to learn something YOU have you choose it, not some random YouTuber saying its blazingly fast.

  5. Plot twist: It was just their sales team mass emailing everyone to upgrade to the Enterprise plan.

  6. There are padStart and padEnd functions already present on the String prototype as per the ECMA standard. But your snippet.. I mean library looks promising, just add Typescript support and you're set for at least a million weekly downloads. Edit: Yes, I know padStart and padEnd were added after this incident, but even then the left-pad package has ~2 million weekly downloads which just proves the point of the article.

  7. That article screams AI generated. It describes a bunch of generic best practice things that you would expect from any succesful company.

  8. Just checked out the repo author, works at a company called Decodable that specialises in real-time stream processing Definitely not sus lmao

  9. That "No. I decided I don't care." Is just whole another mood.

  10. This is probably why you shouldn't look up to these so called "techfluencers" for inspiration.

  11. The biggest problem so far with React is that its often advertised as beginner friendly when in reality its not. You should only learn React If you can sit through understanding its APIs and the motivations behind them. Once you do that you'll realise its like using any other library.

  12. The timing of this video is interesting. Lee Robinson (the VP of product at Vercel) just uploaded a great tutorial on how to self-host Next.

  13. I couldn't stop laughing at your reaction at C++ being S tier.
    93
  14. Absolutely, the choice of Java makes its very obvious.

  15. That article had the "He is confused but he has got the spirit" energy I agree with his take that things have gotten so complicated over the past few years but whatever he was creating didn't make much sense.
    75
  16. Why does a programming language survey need to know if you're a man, woman, gay, lesbian, Twitter user, or whatever. We live in a really strange time. I don't intend to be mean, its just genuinely confusing me.
    71
  17. Exactly! its mind blowing that the natural instinct has become to reach for a NPM package rather than checking the standard library, especially for something so trivial.

  20. 4:40 as a famous developer once said: "You silly product manager! You know nothing about GALACTUS's pain, my pain. Delivering this feature goes against everything I know to be right and true, and I will sooner lay you into this barren Earth than entertain your folly for a moment longer."

  23. That's very inefficient, we need a package that has all trillion trillion UUIDs listed as string literals so it can be accessed more easily.
    37
  24. There is no way it was not Rae.

  25. The main point is that Amazon Prime was doing something thats inherently impossible with Serverless and thats how they save 90% by moving away from it.

  26. Can't wait to hear Theo's take on this, he always used to shill hard for the PlanetScale's free tier lmao

  27.  @tjkandala5650  Doesn't excuse the fact that it still has almost 2 million weekly downloads...

  28. The greatest marketing trick to ever have been pulled in human history was to rebrand Machine Learning as Artificial Intelligence. People forget that at the end of the day these are just prediction models, they try to predict what comes next based on what they've seen so far. There is no actual intelligent taking place, not even artificial. This is why it was called Machine Learning because the machine is the one learning. It had nothing to do with intelligence. That's not to say they're useless, you can still learn from them because you have the collective of human knowledge distilled into natural language that's easy for us to understand. But if you bet so hard on AI to just throw an entire project at it then you probably deserve what's coming to you.

  29. Thank you for 16:42 you damn comedic genius
    26
  30. This is probably it. In fact, if they were holding those business plan customers at a loss then it could even be a net positive.
    24
  31.  @EwanMarshall  Yes I am aware of that but left-pad still has ~2m weekly downloads which means we have learned nothing and just proves the point of this article

  32. This video is like you asked a ChatGPT that was trained on TikTok data to create a video that has the same style as Fireship.

  43. In the same boat, but I think it's because this has more to do with Math and Cryptography than Programming.
    8
  44. You forgot to talk about how a Regex with global flag maintains a hidden start index between calls and results in the most confusing behaviour.
    8
  45. Maybe invite Jeff Delaney (Fireship) on your stream? Would be amazing!
    8
  46. Understood!

  47.  @MrOsefosef  No need for it, everything is JavaScript these days.
    8
  48. In a time where most people don't even credit the videos they react to, Prime watches a full blown ad on their video. Huge respect.
    5
  49.  @OneGuyWolfpack  I have seen it done directly and sometimes indirectly. I have even seen some advice which said you don't need to learn JS to start using React, which is just horrible advice.
    5
  50. I don't have the time right now, but someone please create an AI interviewee that just owns this AI. In theory it should be pretty easy, you just forward the questions to ChatGPT, convert the output to audio, play it on your microphone. I think both of these is possible with existing OpenAI APIs alone. For video you can either cook something intricate or just sit there trying to lip sync because I don't think they would be correlating what is being said to your lip movement.

  51. If anything, this is a great example of why having a decent interpersonal relationship at work is important lol
    5
  52. Maybe an odd take, but I think the frameworks are not bad its the business requirements that have gotten so ridiculous that as a result the rest of the web ecosystem had to evolve in an undesirable way. Everyone wants the best results with the least investment.

  53. What a start to 2024. Predicting JS in Linux kernel by the end of year.

  54. I know its baffling. I just hope they continue making Rust a good language and not start treating it as some kind of vessel for political agenda.

  57. Because Prime left Netflix

  58. I have always thought of undefined as language's default empty state, while null as the intentional empty state.

  59. As someone who has been working with React, I can confirm that making a React app is more complicated than building a rocket these days.

  60. The only way to prevent it is to train a model from scratch on limited data. But at that point the investment gets so big it outweighs the returns.
    3
  61. Watching you increase the speed just so the video would end and you could talk was hilarious 🤣🤣
    3
  62. Unless its a model that's trained on specific data I don't think theres a practical way to prevent a jail break, is there?

  63. I am dying laughing at this 😂

  69. Also what a lot of people don't seem to understand is that OpenAI WILL use the research produced by Deepseek in order to better their own models while simultaneously playing the victim.

  70. Not really, you only need the callback setter if your doing consecutive setState calls

  72. When it started I didn't agree with Matt's ways but I understood his reason behind doing this. Now, nothing makes sense, he seems to be on full schizo mode.

  73. This is probably it. In fact, if they were holding onto the business plan customers at a loss then it could actually be a net positive for them.

  74. Last I checked, he was waiting for his JIRA ticket. Hope he can get the ticket before holidays.

  75. Fully agreed, if a company ignores the context of why you took some time off or why you stepped down from a position its a red flag.

  76. Imagine being smart enough to write an exploit in plain sight that surpasses almost all detection methods, only for it to be busted because some guy (Andres Freund) is benchmarking Postgres and his SSH login is using higher CPU than usual. Humans are generally considered the weakest link in a security chain, but this incident shows that they can also be the strongest link.
    2
  77.  @natescode  Possible errors that are easy to catch and fix*
    2
  78.  @reed6514  But the thing is with code it would be much easier to catch and fix bugs, even during reviews you can catch some easy errors. The rest you can catch via testing. With regex there always tend to be some hidden behaviours that are hard to catch, and they only become worse as the regex grows longer.
    2
  79. Funny you think they don't already do that
    2
  80. That was disappointing. Using Express and then saying its a CSS backend. It is the equivalent of using a templating language. I expected him to somehow make a compiler for CSS that would handle the requests, routing and basically everything that Express is doing here.
    2
  81. Need more of this mindset
    2
  82. When I first write a regex only I and god understand what it does. When I look at the same regex later only god understands what it did.

  83. Theres two types of people, - People who hate tailwind - People who hated tailwind

  84. See the difference is that Walkman claims to be a portable audio player and it does that job well. So there is nothing wrong with that.
    2
  85.  @starllama2149  It sure is a good language. But the fact they're starting to push an agenda means its only going to get worse. I have no problems with DEI, but this just seems like a completely wrong place to shove it.

  86. This is time for Supabase to shine.

  87. Comparing virtual threads with actual threads is like comparing excavators with shovels lol

  88. Wait why is that test case checking against "true", shouldn't it be "false"?

  89. I still don't know wtf is a monad.

  90. And whatever the "modifications" are, they are probably not even in-house they just slapped on something open-source because at the end its just Linux.

  95.  @ThePrimeTimeagen  Isn't the Rust compiler self-hosted? so technically its already writing rust with rust.

  104. I am no scientist but I find it hard to make sense of what their solution is. AI is bottlenecked by compute and like with everything else with computers, optimising compute is a trade off. You use less compute at the cost of a better model, or at the cost of more compute you get a better model. I believe their latest experimental model cost something like $2k per task which is just nuts. Even if you have a magic optimization that cuts the compute in half without sacrificing quality, you're still paying as much as $1k per task. They'd have to bring it down to pennies or a few bucks in order to actually be profitable otherwise it's literally burning cash. Assuming OpenAI's current greatest model thats publically available is capable of 5% of collective human intelligence (that's being very generous because in reality its probably close to like 0.1% since its built from what's on the internet) and its already heavily bottlenecked on compute. So if you magically scale up to be 100% of human intelligence or even 50%, aka the buzzword Artificial Superintelligence or ASI, you would probably need more compute power to run it than anything has today. You could organise an orgy between AWS, Azure and GCP and still fall short. So unless we invent some new magic energy or build a dyson sphere to get us practically endless energy, I don't see how we can get better AI models than today without it being an economical and environmental crisis. Don't get me wrong, I am not an AI doomer. I love using it to speed up some of my workflows but I am not buying into this super intelligence non-sense.

  105. "You get to choose your hard" Thats some solid advice. Thank you Ms. Wifeagen Also this advice couldn't have come at a better time. I am literally sitting on a gig that requires Supabase for a full stack app, I haven't responded because I know very little about Supabase. But I think its honestly time I stepped out of my comfort zone.

  106. I mean is it really a surprise that SamGPT is making bold statement where he see himself as some kind of a god? OpenAI is losing its edge and desperately needs to be profitable before the hype dies.

  108. ​ @samarthnagar2939  JS basics, then advanced concepts - closures, promises, referential equality etc (these play a big role in react). Then learn about DOM, try doing things with raw JS (no libraries or frameworks) You can also try fiddling around with jQuery but it's not super helpful because a lot of jQuery features are now natively supported by the DOM APIs After that you can dive into React. If you do it in this order, there is great chance you will clearly understand why React exists and what problem it is trying to solve. After that it's just a rabbit hole waiting to be explored.

  130. Anyone remember when Fireship did his Git/Github tutorial? He created his own repository, taught how to open a PR on it, and gave free stickers to anyone who created the PRs correctly. That was a masterclass in teaching. I hope more educators learn about the impact, be it positive or negative, they can have on people's lives.

IF an AI were to become sentient and be able to articulate its own thoughts, then I don't think it will wait for permissions from humans to do things it wants to do.
