They apparently have 300M daily meeting participants which is actually more impressive than this headline.

In general, yes. Everyone seems to have their preferred style of coding, and it is an easy defence mechanism, when presented with anyone who tries and finds it wanting, to say that "Well they didn't do it properly". You find

If you want a serious answer is because peer to peer webRTC doesn't scale beyond two people. If you have 4 people every client would need to maintain 3 streams, a total of 6 streams between all participants. To have any kind of scalabi

It's no longer declarative as soon as you've done that though; it's still a break in the declarative paradigm.

Don't worry, I'm not espousing lifecycles as a panacea or solution for the modern programmer, I just wanted to share that experience with lifecycle methods meant that I was less tripped up by the pitfalls of react lifecycles. Less

But that's great until it isn't. You can design all the declarative things you want, but someone will eventually come up with a requirement that doesn't appear to fit a declarative structure, such as an event that fires 2 sec

I liked that model because as an ASP webforms developer the class lifecycle is easy to reason about, like a page lifecycle. In ASP you wouldn't put initialisation code in the page constructor either, it would go in Page_Init, Page_Load

Then I agree completely, and must have misunderstood what was proposed by a handler. Typically a handler will launch an external application such as mailto, ftp, magnet, etc. If we want to run code in browser there is WASM. So is the propos

Correct me if I'm wrong, I haven't used DOSBOX for a decade but doesn't it have the ability to access hard drives and mount them? Given that, it's not much of a sandbox. Or does that require intervention from the host sy

A handler for executing arbitrary code. What could possibly go wrong?

Well yeah, either is fine.

Exactly, I think grammatically this would be correct: Arsenal are winning Arsenal is the best team in the league It's contradictory (as well as plainly false ;) ), but that's English.

I'm not saying there's no effect I'm saying that weddings aren't special in that regard. That's just as easily (or not!) answered the same as: > So what about all the workers that cannot pay their mortgages now?

Thanks, that's it! A good video and better than I explained it too. The video says it's inspired by Taleb's Black Swan so I suspect I read it in that too.

Not much? I think in most jurisdictions it's possible to get legally married, just not be celebrated in the traditional way. So wedding celebrations have been delayed by 6 months or a year, well so what? It's such a small thing to

This reminds me of a prediction game experiment I heard that was described like the following. \* The researchers presented the following to people. f(1) = true f(2) = true f(4) = true f(8) = true And asked, what is f? And

I think idempotent wasn't a good word but I think the idea being described is that crafting is acyclic. For example Copper Wire + Iron = Green Circuit. There's no recipe chain that takes in Green Circuits and produces either Iron

6 exoskeletons (yes, they stack) and a couple of personal nuclear power plants and you can outrun cars and some trains for that matter.

I agree, and I dropped Factorio for a year before going back to it and sinking a few hundred hours into it. What changed? Well partly some UI improvement, but mostly it was a mindset change. The inventory is rubbish because you're not

Yeah pretty much, having names against people is fantastic. I also don't particularly notice any increased lag, perhaps I'm normally operating at a verbal or social lag and zoom normalizes it down to my level? Also, can hide video

Looking through that comparison, I find it funny that "time tracking" is touted as a feature. My grand-boss might love the idea but the fact that GitHub is missing time tracking is a blessing as a developer. Making developers trac

GitHub is not git. GitHub has pull requests, actions (mini CI integrations), other fuller integrations running off github hooks. It's the issues, and pull requests that are the most immediate lock in. Transfer away and you lose your is

GitHub has significant vendor lock-in, so it makes sense to make it free to capture the market before a competitor gets traction. [Speculation:] Perhaps they've run the numbers and can figure out that they make enough money from enterp

90% of the adverts I see on Twitch are for Amazon Prime which suggests that Twitch advertising isn't naturally selling out. Twitch since acquisition has made some changes (e.g. no longer hiding ads for prime members, forcing pre-roll a
