> "Building a full-fledged type system such as TypeScript is a massive effort; that’s why we decided to take a different direction and start by building a subset of the type system that requires stricter typing."

I don't understand why they're building a type system when TypeScript exists, just to name one of great projects they mention.

Is there a manifesto somewhere that describes why this project is taking the high-risk path of boiling the ocean, instead of defining a set of best-in-class projects and improving integration over time? (The "Philosophy" page in the docs isn't helpful in this respect.)

I am also confused by this goal, I've started a discussion in the repo to get some clarity on intent and direction there: https://github.com/biomejs/biome/discussions/1642

Forget the pwn how do I do this

Also, HN used to think this was cool now there are 20 posts blaming the hacker…

I've appended `; tput bel` to the end of long-running scripts to get the same effect.

Fun fact: the `bell` control character is part of the ascii standard (and before that the baudot telegraph encoding!) and was originally there to ring a literal bell on a recipient's telegraph or teletype machine, presumably to get their attention that they had an incoming message.

To keep backwards compatibility today's terminal emulators trigger the system alert sound instead.

PR in action!

He's had an excellent PR machine running since Friday and the opposing faction seems to have exactly none (which makes sense given their relative roles and backgrounds). So reporters and Twitter get carefully crafted leaks, tips, and comments from one side and nobody on the other side has the experience, connections, and confidence to push back with a different narrative. And so the story drifts in their favor.

This is why professional PR is a thing and earns people lots of money.

Sometimes a "PR machine" is just social capital at work. If there's anything else I've learned in this saga it's that Sam has had a consistent track record of building and maintaining highly positive relationships with anyone near his orbit, this board aside, and that it consistently pays him dividends.

There's a huge need for subscription bundles. I'd gladly pay $20/mo for access to a bunch of big names, even if I'm limited to like 60 articles per month combined across those sources.

Instead I just don't pay anyone, turn back when I encounter a paywall and look for someone's summary if I'm really interested.

Did you read the bit about how runes make all those things unnecessary in future?
orpheansodality · 2 years ago
there are so many comments here that really feel like they didn't read any part of the announcement other than that there's a thing called runes.

For me personally I tried svelte in the past and bounced off because there was too much implicitly happening that I needed to have a deep understanding of to model correctly. This solves basically all those problems for me.

I thought your video[1] especially did a great job walking through the pros this change brings. Thanks for all your great work on this!

So basically he just had the wrong title? Sounds like a great engineering manager or lead (in a company where that involves less code writing) or something. But his title is an IC role. But if he's spending all day pairing and not writing code then yeah - that manager seems to be correct, that's not his job? Why isn't he taking on any stories?
orpheansodality · 2 years ago
pairing is taking stories, it’s two people working on one task together.
