Good old times...
Yappp, they do not make games like those anymore.....
I will just remember the more "modern ones"
and the original first titles and others
i can only play
I think I spent more than a thousand hours on this alone playing single player with all the factions, what a great game
I still dig Road Rash.
Ooooo nostalgia triggered.....
forgot lemmings
or worms 3d.
This was fun
Wolf, doom, prince of Persia (i played this in B/W), battle chess (b/w)
Ooo
Cannot forget windows 3.1, solitare and pinball
Guess this applies to all of let 🤔 😅
We need LowEndAnonymous
The true LowEndAnonymous facilitator in my watch is @ehab.... hands pants down
@FAT32 do you work with JS/TS a lot?
I have finished my JS>TS conversion, I got the data much more structured than before
Currently using Express with Zod validation and MySQL (manually typed for now)
This is very early testing though, this is not the code that I'll go live with. It's a fairly complex SaaS thing so I had to do this just to practically see issues with my way of thinking etc.
Now, I'll take a pause coding and think about how the final stack will look like. One issue I have with Express/TS (let me know if you know a good solution to this) is that middlewares suck.
I can have a middleware function that verifies the request contains XYZ json/query/params data, but unless I setup custom RequestHandler's etc, TypeScript got no idea that the incoming request actually contain that later on in the controller/service-part.
I can extend the request object, but it very quickly becomes a mess that I just don't feel like I've got control over.
Thoughts?
How do you guys even find all that time? You really make me rethink my life choices.
You probably have a good life if you can't find time for shitposting.
Work a shitty job from home? I totally recommend it. I ssh naked.
Pics or it didn't happen.
I work naked from home occasionally. Gotta keep the fans pleased.
I work with them on a daily basis but mostly frontend. The last time I have been working with purely Express (v4, havent tested v5 yet but heard about it) I extended Request instead and there's no easier way than this.
An alternative would be making some getter functions so it becomes something like:
getSomethingFromReq(req)or the like and you can perform type validation or casting there. (In the case where it has been validated by a middleware, this just acts as a getter that casts from any to your type)If you and your team are able to invest a bit more time I would recommend using a more opinionated framework like NestJS which is not everyone's cup of tea but it allows a better maintainability down the road.
Most of the pure Express projects I have seen grow into a mess because of the lacking of a good structure, so unless if you setup some very good structure and enforce certain coding styles else I would still recommend an opinionated framework.
What if the frameworks opinions starting getting too out there like it agrees with Kanye West or something
The confetti looks soo different on a desktop....
I hardly visit LE* on big screens.
Well you get some you lose some right, the problem for Node.js to this date is there is no good solutions for Backend (probably using Node as Backend is wrong decision to begin with), NestJS is the most maintained and stable one that I have seen to this date.
We were planning to build one ourselves at first but after quite some research it looks similar to NestJS at the end so might as well use them. The plus is we understand most part of the NestJS codebase so in the rare case where they go bad we could fork it and maintain them ourselves.
I feel personally attacked by this as anything I ever write myself is in Node
Same
Before this turns into why X is better than Y, there is nothing wrong with using any languages or frameworks as long as it serves your purpose. In most cases, most websites probably dont need to handle high traffic anyway so there is no point to premature optimise.
It is just a joke because a lot of people are joking on Node.js is not suitable as a backend but we are running it in production in our company and can handle pretty high traffic even in single instance.
