Safari's date-picker is the cause of 1/3 of our customer support issues

Safari's date-picker is the cause of 1/3 of our customer support issues

...and obviously we're building a workaround. But I'm absolutely flabbergasted that a standard <input type="date"> HTML field, in a standard browser, from a company that bases its reputation good design, could be so dreadful.

The context

I'm the developer for a startup that sells a genetic test to recommend medications for high blood pressure. For medical reasons we need to know our customers' birth date. Most of our customers are in their 60s or older. We've found that many of them use iPads or iPhones. And they're the ones who complain to our customer support that our site is unusable.

The problem

How to open Visual Studio Code via command line (local file, remote-ssh, docker, remote-docker)

How to open Visual Studio Code via command line

In order to open a Visual Studio Code sometimes we want to do it from the command line. Either because that allows us to just open the current file or folder, or because we would like to script opening some specific resource. This resource may be placed in another machine (e.g. via ssh), or in a docker container (running in the same machine or in another machine).

Local file or folder

code <file or folder>
# e.g. code .

[Github Actions][Go] Check pull requests before merging

Create template actions that's used to verify Go language pull requests before merging. It's easy to custom the flow, tools with your case.

Put pr_checker.yml or pr_checker_simple.yml to .github/workflows/ and see how it works with your pull requests. Make sure you are allows to use actions of Github.

  • pr_checker.yml is using by mine with full checking tools. It will make sure every Go langauge pull requests will be buildable, testable, passed security checking and error-able code checking.
  • pr_checker_simple.yml is more simpler with buildable, testable.

Falsehoods programmers believe about time, in a single list

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

  • There are always 24 hours in a day.
  • February is always 28 days long.
  • Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).
