The first and only occurrence I’ve heard of this claim was Rogan’s podcast. The article lumps him in with other claimants. But it doesn’t actually demonstrate that his anecdote is fabricated. How does this portion of the article make it pas

It doesn't take authority to effect change. You'd be surprised at what you can accomplish once you figure out how who owns the various fragments of the solution. OP – My offer to help still stands. I'm sorry to hear about you

Agree. I’m a US citizen who lived in London. The cost of essentials are actually very affordable in the UK. Your lifestyle excludes the need to acquire material goods. If earning money is your primary focus, I would choose the US. These are

Love the concept. I find it nearly impossible to buy products that are made well and intended to last longer than a year. Any plans to lead a movement, because I’m in.

It’s the best extension I’ve installed. I only wish it would permit single hand navigation as a setting (e.g. left hand only with right on mouse all the time)

I hope to see a democratic China in my lifetime. Rationalize the “cold shoulder” however you like. But the CCP has so much more than to answer for beyond their self-interested COVID cover-up. Ask a Uighur Muslim who’s fortunate enough to “g

One of my favorites: spread operator shorthand for passing component props. Suppose: const now = moment() Then, you can pass it down to a component like this: <TimeInput {...{now}} /> Which is equivalent to <TimeInput now={now

I used SlateJS a year ago and couldn’t be more impressed. It struck a great balance with minimalist architecture while also providing the React building blocks I’d rather use than create myself.
