@ped.ro any chance you could sneak me in to the raycast windows beta? 😁 it's such an essential part of my mac workflow that for the past month on my new job's windows laptop i've been sorely missing it, raycast is my favorite mac app and i've referred several colleagues!

wait nvm that’s not ocaml, it just looks really similar, what language is that?

does it count if i’m using ocaml for my compsci class this semester? 😁

being able to bind a key or shortcut to holding down the hyperkey would also be really useful

the first thing that comes to mind would be binding double caps lock to escape to make it easier to use with vim bindings, this would be a sick feature

@ped.ro super happy about the new raycast hyperkey functionality! was able to replace the hyperkey app with raycast instead. i did see that you can press caps lock twice to toggle it on or off, i was wondering if the team would add an option where you could bind this to a different key too?

this is exciting, every time i try to set up a shadcn/ui turborepo it gives me a huge headache and takes way longer than i’d like

definitely does not help, as someone going to one of those prestigious schools my advisor told me that most students are shooting for faang but there’s lots of other decent-paying jobs if they look around

how much of this is due to applying in the most competitive swe jobs out there? ofc faang is going to be difficult to get into, there’s going to be at least SOME swe jobs that might not be 150k starting but will still get you into the industry, especially for a berkeley grad

it is in fact that difficult, building something at this scale takes time

setting up i18n for my app gave me a whole new appreciation for the work people do to support other languages

that took a lot of work and my app isn’t even that big 😬 next-intl is a great package tho! pretty happy with the api and learning how to configure it

copilot has been pretty good, especially if you have amex, rocket money never properly tracked my amex accounts

love the sentiment but that’s not how a bell curve works 😭 the β€œcoding a lot” should be on the right

why is aria-disabled a better choice? from what i can tell it only functions for screen readers, whereas disabled shows the state for everyone

what's the primary difference to be aware of?

A benchmark result for jsbenchmark.com showing the results for different functions to convert a string to camelCase. The results are as follows:

seems to have some variance based on platform and the difference is not nearly as drastic

a good way to show that it’s better to prioritize DX, since real world performance differences are likely to be negligible

i keep going between β€œthis game is horrible” and β€œthis is the best game to ever be made”

the naming of javascript and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race
