Very extremely. Quite a lovely presentation. I'm definitely having a Patrick Bateman-esque appreciation for that delicate cream background.

At this point, AGI seems to be more of a marketing beacon than any sort of non-vague deterministic classification. We all thought about a future where AI just woke up one day, when realistically, we got philosophical debates over whether th

> "react's complexity isn't worth saving 5 lines of code" which people would agree with. If you look at the code the example shows, the replication is a bunch of HTML and tailwind CSS classes in backbone. So basically

This is how Backbone looked back in the day. Not that I agree with him, but there's nothing new to this, it's essentially a basic View wrapper around a jQuery dom manipulator.

Yes. `useState` is essentially the "two way binding" of React at the component level. You may also enforce two way binding via an external state manager, and pass it to your React components via props. This is the beauty of React,

Nobody wants to have a discussion about [enter argument of the month here] because it's all BS partisan politics motivated by the right's outright disdain for all things liberal in America. The problem isn't a lack of underst

It seems like there's a lot of propaganda premised on the idea that "both sides are bad", it's just "two sides of the same coin," and it's always the people who know nothing about politics and just want to

Is it really partisan to point out that Republicans took anti-vaxxing to be practically their identifying feature?

Yes, there's a difference between a raging narcissist who can't even seem to tell the truth even if there's nothing to gain from lying and listening to a doctor. But yeah, keep going with the whole "democrats are just as

Wait, you mean you're an enterprise company and using email for login everyday isn't a viable option for you? (clearly Notion is too cool for people like us to use...)

Exactly. This is why cocktails you order from the restaurant don't taste nearly as good as they do in store (unless you know what you're doing with them). I can't wait to get drunk in a bar with people again.

The year is 2047 and California is half desert, half ocean. Youtube has moved their offices to the hippest, most promising upstart of a community, Beluga, once a suburb of Fairbanks, Alaska. A small collective of cyberpunk hackers have decl

Wait - was the "Russia collusion narrative" that one totally crazy massive investigation that ended up getting 34 people indicted? One of them Trump just pardoned Flynn for a week or so ago? Are you just gonna sit here and pretend

yes! I've been using licecap for years now and can't sing its praises enough.

Not that I think react+redux was a particularly great choice for reddit (given that it's mostly just static content), that post doesn't justify your conclusion that this is the bottleneck at all... (But is new reddit slower than o

There isn't a generic insulin available (at least in the US) - that's why there's a movement of biohackers to homebrew insulin.

I get the sense the end goal here isn't in productivity but more for education and creating environments that foster a programming mindset and/or nourish more emergent creativity from being able to code at a higher level (probably

Hm, interesting. I like it. I'm also curious about how selectors come into play here as well (exported getter functions for shielding app from reducer state shape). You might still need to place actions/selectors in their own dire

>There is nothing wrong with storing some information in the DOM. Except you're coupling your application state with the document model. If you ever do anything to change the DOM later on, (like installing React into your codebase)

To be fair, you don't really need to declare your constants elsewhere. This is just a pattern people stuck with, because they're stubborn about constants, I think. Doing a find/replace is so incredibly easy that it's kin

There's so many factors that come into play with conversion, though. And this will vary wildly between B2B, B2C, and enterprise. I think marketers have invaded the UX space a little too hard. We should be thinking of more inventive met

Does this mean we can crowdsource and buy the private browsing history of our favorite representatives and post them online for everybody to see?

Everything is unclear until you become used to it, though. I mean, used to it, as in, you can read it without stepping yourself through the steps manually. And to a novice programmer, pretty much everything they come up against represents t

I think cognitive load is a perfectly acceptable term here. Taken within the context of Cognitive Load Theory, we assume that any individual can only maintain a few items into their working memory. These items are portions of the code that

I find this kind of strange, given that both of them seem to be sinking massive amounts of money into subsidizing rides. Like, they're going to be all about user retention when people are only going to care about which option is cheape

This is an interesting question. I'm not a neuroscientist or anything, but I'd wonder how this question relates with brain waves, as well. I guess there's research into how these signals cause integration within the brain ht
