I’m a front-end developer. I sometimes need to solve algebra problems. I’m pretty bad at it because I , but my knowledge that a problem is solvable by math comes in handy maybe once or twice a month. It’s just that on the few occasions that there’s algebra that I can’t figure out how to solve (maybe once a year), I may ask for help from a colleague.

Examples of cases where math comes in handy:

• Pythagoras when I need to figure out the x/y components of a diagonal distance
• Width/height calculations from a variety of parameters

In summary, as long as you know what math is capable of, you probably won’t have major issues. There will pretty much always be someone around to help with the math part if necessary.

As for calculus… I forgot all about the one calculus class I’ve taken and I’ve never suffered for it.

What year is it? Locked devices have been illegal in Quebec for, like, ever.

I do know a few devs who prefer 5 days in the office. But they’re absolutely the minority.

Personally, I try to go once a week, but I usually don’t because I dread having a day with 50% my normal productivity.

It’s just so noisy all the time in there. Open space and really high ceilings for “collaboration”…

Vue and React are popular alternatives.

Lit is a less popular alternative that’s 100% compatible with native WebComponents, and I’ve been interested in it ever since I first heard of it.

The old version, AngularJS, died. The newer Angular lives on, and I heard it’s a much better experience.

For now. I suspect some evil person will eventually think of baking in default ads for when it can’t connect to the network to get new ones.

I think the profanity filter used to be non-optional on iOS’s autocorrect.

Yeah, our company has been meaning to transition to them for a while. I started saying Jsdoc comments but people complained about the pollution. Then I said fine, we’ll do TypeScript one day instead.

That one day has yet to come. I don’t actually get to decide much at this company, after all. Aah, technical debt.

Nope, don’t need to. WebStorm can even detect nonexistent attributes for objects whose format the back-end decides, and tbh I’m not sure what sort of sorcery it uses.

That’s way too broad. Scripting is a pretty broad concept.

Do we need a name? Most social networks don’t have a special name for their users.

I wouldn’t mind them if they didn’t BREAK MY REMOTE’S PLAY BUTTON.

That is not what I’m suggesting. I’m not saying charging only cables shouldn’t exist. I’m saying what everything does should be clearer.

There should be a way to make it simpler.

Idk, something like “for USB 4 you NEED all of these”.

Or maybe USB 4 with levels like bronze, silver, etc.

Or make displaying data rate, display and charging capabilities all mandatory on all ports…

I’m not sure what, but “it’s a USB port; look in the manual and if you’re lucky you might learn what it does exactly” ain’t it.

The USB standards are just… Comically overcomplicated. And almost everything about it is optional. They need a full revamp, making it simpler and mandatory on all future ports, devices and cables.

But they won’t do that, will they.

Will that ruin my phone’s battery?

Also what if I’m someone poor using an extremely basic smartphone to connect to the internet?
