Yes. This is true for JS too, object-wrapping parameters just to make them named will add runtime overhead.


Not in current chrome, at least for simple cases (like a short function with a single argument). It benchmarks the same with or without the param wrapper.


Variable names is just documentation. Having types that can assert some condition on the underlying value is not even comparable to "having a named return variable". (just document? just name variables?) You don't care about what the name of the returned value is, you care about what *it is*.


Just figma apparently, it's disclosed in the FAQ.


Those animations wont "peg" any relevant CPU, and they clearly had a purpose that was not about wasting cycles or battery.


They still end up doing that, regardless of the intention. It would be better if they only animated once, or just when you hover over them instead of constantly.


What does this solve? Genuine question. You still have to manage connectivity, and synchronization. Also not so sure that stream reading will necessarily be quantized chunks of your updates sent from the server.


That seems very unlikely, why would you think that will be a requirement?


Because I've been getting interviews where the hiring company "strongly encourages" use of such tools - interview projects are just too large to finish without LLM help within the forty five minute time limit.


So.. For which company? The sentence "there are scam profiles all around the IT world" would not be on any real company of scale guidelines, and no company would put that much liability in one "slide" even if they had them.


Pretty fun, but how can you tell the content you link to is from "real people"?

How is the feed ordered, I saw a pretty wide timerange?

Is it supposed to be used as a search engine, feed, or more like "stumble!"?


It's a bit opaque right now, but we rank up content from authors we know are real people that write online...working to make this clearer in the interface.

The feed is ordered primarily by the what you've specified as interests and the salience of authors. As we find new essays that score high "relevance" when compared to the topics you've selected, your feed will be updated with more recent content.

In our personal use, we use it as a hybrid between feed of our favorite topics and exploring (stumbling upon) new things. The "prompt your feed" aspect definitely adds some search engine-like capabilities, while still letting you surf through the things you don't know about.


Thank you for expanding on it!


Congrats, but why not just share code as usual, like via libs and so on?


It is on the website in a Github repo. You can find the link in the navbar.


Yes, many companies will cap out on the advancement ladder so that at that point there's no requirement to advance further formally. Any company doing up or out indefinitely will obviously just drop valuable resources. You can still advance in pay etc.
