41,794,420 | comment | benatkin | 2024-10-10T00:45:44 | null | Here's my quick rebuttal, as someone who likes/uses parts of Web Components but knows it's no panacea. ChatGPT could improve on it I'm sure.<p>> 1. No Need for Node.js: Keeping Development Simple<p>You can have code that requires a server or build script with and without web components. You can have code that doesn't require those with and without web components.<p>> 2. Native Browser Support: No Server-Side Rendering Headaches<p>This is the point that makes the least sense. You can opt out of server-side rendering when using a non-WC framework, and you lose the headaches. If you don't want server-side rendering and are just glad that Web Components gives you an excuse to not support it, that's silly. If you want server-side rendering, it is possible with Web Components but there's currently a lot more guidance on how to do that with popular non-Web Component frameworks.<p>> 3. No Compilation Required: Write Once, Run Anywhere<p>Duplicate of #1. <i>smh</i><p>> 4. Universal API, No Lock-In<p>Does Lock-In just mean including an unencumbered open source library? The API doesn't provide a whole lot. That's why a lot of people are using Lit. When you have Lit, you have some of what is called Lock-In.<p>> 5. Smaller, Faster, and More Performant<p>It encourages you to do things that are less performant, maybe only by a little bit, but still. Having a shadow DOM for each item in a large collection means you'd likely have an event handler instead of one that bubbles up. Luckily this is totally optional with Web Components. You can have a Custom Element without a shadow DOM, or you can just create plain elements for items in a large collection and have those bubble up. You can also have your events be composed and they will cross the shadow DOM boundary, though that is tricky in some cases.<p>> 6. Better Long-Term Maintainability<p>If you are using a framework (or library), you have to keep up with changes to the framework. If you aren't using one, you may have to do extra maintenance because you're doing something extra that would normally be handled by a framework (or library).<p>> Conclusion: Embracing the Simplicity of Web Components<p>Some stuff is simple, some stuff is not.<p>Edit: I realized that Lock-In could refer to how frameworks try to manage the child elements by default. This can be disabled, and you can have something manage its own child elements. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to use stuff like CodeMirror inside of React. That tends to be done with a ref. | null | null | 41,794,396 | 41,794,150 | null | [

41,794,427 | comment | everforward | 2024-10-10T00:46:58 | null | I don't write Kotlin, but what that does (assuming I'm guessing at it correctly) requires far more awkward code in most other languages. That looks like it will allow you to extend the types of objects deep inside the library so that you could e.g. create your own Request object without having to type cast inside the HTTP handlers or wrap the entire library.<p>That shifts the complexity of doing that out of the runtime and into the Typescript preprocessor where it's not going to mess with your production instances.<p>I also don't think it's all that bad; it's a lot of generic types, but it doesn't appear to be doing anything particularly complicated.<p>I do think they get awful, though. This is something I've been hacking on that I'm probably going to rewrite <a href="https://pastebin.com/VszX3MyE" rel="nofollow">https://pastebin.com/VszX3MyE</a> It's a wrapper around Electron's IPC and derives a type for the client from the type for the server (has to have the same methods and does some type finagling to strip out the server-specific types). It also dynamically generates a client based on the server prototype. The whole thing rapidly fell into the "neat but too complicated to be practical" hole. | null | null | 41,791,780 | 41,764,163 | null | [

41,794,434 | comment | ordu | 2024-10-10T00:48:54 | null | Java doesn't enforce the rule "mutable XOR shared". But if you have a link "child" in the parent node, and a link "parent" in the child node, then parent.child.parent == parent, and compiler cannot know it.<p>So Rust as the language makes it impossible to do with &-pointers, while standard library of Rust allows it to do with combination of Option, Rc, RefCell but it is really ugly (people above says it is impossible, but I believe it is just ugly in all ways). Like this:<p>type NodeRef = Rc<RefCell<NodeInner>>;<p>struct Node {
parent: Option<NodeRef>,
left: Option<NodeRef>,
right: Option<NodeRef>
}<p>So the real type of `parent` field is Option<Rc<RefCell<NodeInner>>>. I hate it when it comes to that. But the ugliness is not the only issue. Now any attempt to access parent or child node will go through 2 runtime checks: Option need to check that there is Some reference or just None, and RefCell needs to check that the invariant mut^shared will not be broken. And all this checks must be handled, so your code will probably have a lot of unwraps or ? which worsens the ugliness problem.<p>And yeah, with Rc you need to watch for memory leaks. You need to break all cycles before you allow destructors to run.<p>If I need to write a tree in rust, I'll use raw-pointers and unsafe, and let allergic to unsafe rustaceans say what they like, I just don't care. | null | null | 41,793,749 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

Fans of various frameworks and methodologies will naturally fume and rant about this sort of "lowest common denominator" treatment, but in a few years the same people may well thank their lucky stars that their <i>new</i> webapps and <i>new</i> shiny frameworks aren't permanently welded to a now distinctly un-trendy implementation strategy hidden within web components they're still using.

41,794,483 | comment | dahart | 2024-10-10T00:56:55 | null | Ah, but that’s assuming the ‘right way’ path went perfectly and didn’t over-engineer anything. In reality, the ‘right way’ path being advocated for, statistically will also waste a lot of time, and over-engineering waste can and does grow exponentially, while under-engineering frequently only wastes linear and/or small amounts of time, until the problem is better understood.<p>Having witnessed first-hand over-engineering waste millions of dollars and years of time, on more than one occasion, by people advocating for the ‘right way’, I think tallying the time wasted upgrading an under-engineered solution is highly error prone, and that we need to assume that some percentage of time we’ll need to redo things the right way, and that it’s not actually a waste of time, but a cost that needs to be paid in search of whether the “right way” solution is actually called for, since it’s often not. The waste might be the lesser waste compared to something much worse, and it’s not generally possible to do the exact right amount of engineering from the start.<p>Someone here on HN clued me into the counter acronym to DRY, which is WET: write everything twice (or thrice) so the 2nd or 3rd time will be “right”. The first time isn’t waste, it’s necessary learning.

41,794,485 | comment | zahlman | 2024-10-10T00:57:16 | null | A lot of the time, people say things like "Python has been circling the drain ever since." referring to the implementation of the "walrus operator", to imply that they don't like the feature and that it was the first of a series of changes to the language that have made it progressively worse; and they often further imply that if only we still had the original leadership then we could avoid such damage to the language.<p>I was, in a sense, in that camp at the time, before I looked it up. I felt that the operator went against the spirit of the language by trampling on what was previously a strong, and clearly very conscious, separation between statements and expressions. And I misguidedly imagined, and lamented, that GvR was unable to keep it out of the language, being overruled by consensus.<p>I just want to make sure it's clear that things are not like that. Rather, the Python envisioned (nowadays, though not originally) by the original leadership includes PEP 572 - and probably also the large majority of what's been added since. | null | null | 41,794,327 | 41,788,026 | null | [

41,794,490 | comment | caseyy | 2024-10-10T00:58:04 | null | Compared to many other countries, UK has a computer science culture that's very open about how technology is used in every day lives, and it invites public participation in new tech. This shows a lot in the government as well as its services like BBC and NHS, and the academia.<p>It's a very broad topic to cover so I'll be terse with evidence/examples only. UK government provides a lot of open data and APIs for the country [0], [1]. They are free and pretty much not throttled. They have a license [2] for a lot of this data which is formal but nearly as free as John Carmack's legendary hacker-friendly "have fun" license [3]. There is also a lot of historical Ordnance Survey data and historical legislation data from the National Archives. And of course, you can see the openness in how they have built gov.uk, as blog articles appear on HN about it quite often.<p>There is also a lot of government infrastructure provided to local governments, such as gov.uk Notify [4] or a freely available NHS website CMS (which is why many NHS websites work the same). There is a guide [5] mostly intended for government services but free for others to use on building accessible, secure and quite good-looking websites.<p>Most other governments I lived under are either technically behind UK or they have very advanced tech capabilities in certain branches of the government only (such as the armed forces) but keep it out of the public eye. Ultimately, I think it is the culture of welcoming everyone's participation in technology that makes UK gov so forthcoming and open with their tech and data. Doing this is seen as kind and civilised, which is how governments want to be seen. Of course, there are still areas of improvement in how UK gov provides data, as there always are in everything.<p>Finally, I should mention you can find many BBC technology outreach programmes from the early days of home computing. They are all over YouTube if you search for "BCC home computing". There was and continues to be a lot of techno-optimism in the country. It is one of the admittedly not many things that persist from the pre-austerity times.<p>[0] <a href="https://www.data.gov.uk" rel="nofollow">https://www.data.gov.uk</a><p>[1] <a href="https://www.api.gov.uk/index/#index" rel="nofollow">https://www.api.gov.uk/index/#index</a><p>[2] <a href="https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/3/" rel="nofollow">https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-lice...</a><p>[3] <a href="https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM/blob/master/README.TXT">https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM/blob/master/README.TXT</a> (before GPL became popular, id software code was distributed with this readme that said "Have fun")<p>[4] <a href="https://www.notifications.service.gov.uk" rel="nofollow">https://www.notifications.service.gov.uk</a><p>[5] <a href="https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk" rel="nofollow">https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk</a> | null | null | 41,794,314 | 41,793,597 | null | [

Maybe because it would be slow?<p><i>edit:</i> The creator of Terser is working on flow analysis for his new minifier, according to him[1].<p>[1]: <a href="https://github.com/terser/terser/issues/1410#issuecomment-1710349693">https://github.com/terser/terser/issues/1410#issuecomment-17...</a> | null | null | 41,794,189 | 41,764,163 | null | [

41,794,494 | comment | sensanaty | 2024-10-10T00:58:26 | null | I'm fully onboard, but only if it's not <i>only</i> Google being broken up here. M$, Apple, Meta (!!!!!!!!) and all the other big tech companies all need to be nuked from orbit.<p>I'm worried that what's actually going to happen is Google getting broken up and M$ just swooping in to feast on the carcass, leaving us in an even shittier position. Out of all the evils coming from the FAANG world, M$ and Meta are by far the worst IMO, so not breaking them up alongside google is just idiocy | null | null | 41,784,287 | 41,784,287 | null | [

41,794,496 | comment | mozman | 2024-10-10T00:58:53 | null | I went to interview at a fortune 50 company that is primarily based in India.<p>It was very clear my communication style and values is drastically different.<p>It was a good opportunity, but one of the most frustrating encounters I’ve ever had. I’m glad the offer didn’t go anywhere. | null | null | 41,786,148 | 41,785,265 | null | null | null | null |

41,794,499 | comment | lolinder | 2024-10-10T00:59:14 | null | Was it? I confess that I initially downvoted them on principle but came back to remove the downvote after reading the article because it did have strong LLM vibes.<p>There were lots of turns of phrase that didn't feel natural in a technical blog post but are common in ChatGPT's prose. But honestly the bigger red flag for me was the listicle format, with a numbered 6-point outline fleshed out with a few paragraphs per heading and no transitions or relationships of any kind between sections. It felt like something written in chunks and stitched together afterward, which is a common artifact of a ChatGPT workflow (since it produces small chunks of text at a time rather than whole coherent essays). | null | null | 41,794,428 | 41,794,150 | null | [
