FYI, Jenkins has an endpoint to validate the pipeline without running it, and there’s a VSCode extension to do this without leaving the editor: https://www.jenkins.io/blog/2018/11/07/Validate-Jenkinsfile/
FYI you can (sorta) redirect searches from the start menu: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-let-google-handle-cortana-web-search-results-windows-10
Mine all go to DDG in FF
The WinAmp maybe sorta open-sourcing is interesting. I’ve never used it (aside from downloading it to get MilkDrop working in Foobar2000).
I feel the same way. Designing good, opinionated APIs is HARD, but it also provides the best experience for both the author and the consumer.
Among other examples.
That’s how I feel about RuneScape! I don’t find it a particularly fun game, but the music is so great and iconic and fits the game so well, I hear it and want to play.
In a world where your IDE and maybe also compiler should warn you about using unicode literals in source code, that’s not much of a concern.
VSCode (and I’m sure other modern IDEs, but haven’t tested) will call out if you’re using a Unicode char that could be confused with a source code symbol (e.g. i and ℹ️, which renders in some fonts as a styled lowercase i without color). I’m sure it does the same on the long equals sign.
Any compiler will complain (usually these days with a decent error message) if someone somehow accidentally inserts an invalid Unicode character instead of typing ==
.
This is a fantastic write-up, thanks for sharing!
