39 % tariff for Switzerland is for sure going to convince them to move their watch making business to Detroit.

I guess I have to switch to another browser or use some plugin. I don't want to see that stupid AI generated nonsense at the top of my search results.

Version 1.2 of py-predicate will probably allow property based testing, but also run-time instrumentation of a function against a specification: github.com/mrijk/py-pre...

Working on #Clojure spec like functionality for py-predicate: github.com/mrijk/py-pre... . This will allow users to test functions based on predicates for their parameters.

So your #python function has a type signature with a float. Now let's test that and call it with math.inf and see what happens.

py-predicate can now dynamically generate lambda functions with a variable nr of parameters. Bit of magic involved with types.FunctionType but no 'eval' needed. github.com/mrijk/py-pre...

Of course I was exaggerating somewhat, but I see frontend devs endlessly trying to get 'the types right', sprinkling in generics, while at the end what's needed is a simple view-only page. Could easily be done in half or less of that code (and effort) if done in plain JavaScript.

#TypeScript is nice for developers who previously developed clunky corporate #Java applications and accidentally moved to frontend development. Imho frontends shouldn't care about business logic and types.

So many ideas for new functionality of my composable #python predicate library. Working towards the next release of py-predicate. github.com/mrijk/py-pre...

Watched Terminator 1 yesterday. Noticed that a robot coming back from 2029 is still running an 8 bit 6502 microprocessor instruction set. So probably we have nothing to fear from AI in the near future.

I think by now we need to start realising that Trump is going to actively help Putin with information to fight Ukrain.

I can't be the first one that notices that Fargo theme creator Jeff Russo must have been inspired by Follia (Corelli, 1653-1713).

I envision a website that shows European products (clothing, tools, food, etc) with an indication of origin (percentage European), environmental impact, etc. And of course where to buy them.

I was positively surprised that after years of #React programming, I liked programming #Angular. Especially since release 19.

To follow up on my previous tweet: my personal preference ranking from high to low: 1 #clojure 2 #nodejs 3 #python 4 #kotlin 5 #scala and I'm afraid #java ends last at position 6.

I think it was mostly that we didn't model the domain correctly, and all we needed was 'just a backend' for one application. Combined with slow external systems in our federation that lead to many issues. If you want more details, you can reach me at maurits.rijk@gmail.com
