Let's put an emphasis on the fact that this cannot be a technical limitation, as everyone else in the world manages to build websites that work on most devices, including android. The appleid is a security nightmare anyway. I used to u

The french typically call «bande dessinée» the french-belgian comics, while using the words «comics» for US comics (typically Marvel/DC/etc, and «Manga» for asian (manga/manhwa/etc). The word «bande dessinée» is also the

Actually, this is funny because that's literally what I have been doing for the last 2 startups I co-founded. The first one was in 2013, so Electron was not an option at the time, I needed a runtime to run my webapp (in the healthcare

You are so right for the thread-safety, immutability is a major improvements. However, I am pretty sure OP was referring to immutability in javascript, which is single-thread by design, and yet many javascript developers use immutability li

Exactly that. Our app is >60kloc of typescript/react, we target android,ios,macos,win32 sharing >85% of the same source code with react native and react web, many abstractions, a lot of local storage and sync with remote server,

Exactly my feeling. Also, when I hire people coming from the startup industry I have to explain why we don't use kubernetes (we manage 2 servers for our production) or redux (good old publish-and-subscribe works great for us). Some of

IndexedDB used to be slow, but is it still yet? Not so sure, performance does not seem that bad (see http://reyesr.github.io/html5-storage-benchmark/ ) Do you have some benchmark that shows it is indeed slow as of toda

PDF is a format designed for the exact display of documents, not for anything else. It's like ranting about your printer losing all those html tags semantic when printing a web page. The pdf format is not to blame here.

In France the firing itself is a very strict procedure that includes a mandatory discussion between the parties. When an employer wants to fire an employee, here is what absolutly must happen for the procedure to be valid: - The employer ap

I have been working on a commercial RN project for 2 years now. As of today, the project is ~50kloc, and provides builds for Android, IOS, Windows, and Macos platforms. I started it using RN after prototyping with an early Ionic2 version an

Not all of us. I have been writing open source since approx. 1998, and I remember hosting my code on sourceforge, and announcing on freshmeat. There was also a few other central repositories, and some major projects having their own CVS and

JQuery is a great tool, it got a lot of buzz and people started to abusively use it out of its nominal scope. This does not say anything about jquery, only about people. React is having a lot of buzz, and the same abuses happen in places wh

Is this the same dynamic that one can observe between java and scala developers? Anyway I can see how converting a "native" program to a web environment can add a lot of value, as you can embed it in a webpage and execute it local

What you buy is a temporary licence to use a domain, the fact that you need to renew it every year or so is a good sign that nobody "owns" a domain name (and that it was designed this way, with a limit on the number of years you c

A lot of features were so far ahead it was astounding. Many applications were scriptable with AREXX (the Amiga Rexx language implementation), and we could process data in one app, send it to another, process it again, save it, etc. Unix phi

I agree, this is very premature, we don't have all the information yet. I purchased an i9 in december, because I cared about the performance, not the price, and had I known the little information we have now, I would have switched to A

The facebook patent clause states that you lose the licence rights to use react if you sue facebook against any patent infringement (for patents you own). There is nothing in that saying that they have patents on react, and if they have

I don't think this will happen, because Typescript now has a very large user base, and Facebook will stick to Flow. However, I don't think flow is going to survive React, because it's only used there and internally at Faceboo

Exactly that. Also management suddenly asking developpers to document source code when they never cared before, or new organization with business people being put in charge of the developpers.

Maybe Typescript still lacks maturity in the sense that if you can adapt your projects (and your process) to how it was designed to work, then it's great and provides a lot, but on the other hand it may be quite difficult to adapt it t

Just wanted to give a different perspective. Been using typescript for more than 2 years now, on 2 projects of medium sizes (30 to 100Kloc). Those are projects that provide my income, them breaking means no income anymore for me and my asso

I am not defending the position that banning netflix from Canne is right, because they have several high quality shows, so it's a pity, but note that in France the movie theaters audience is very respectful of the experience, and there

It's not that simple. The Front National is basically the same people than 10 or 20 years ago, under the reign of JM Lepen (the infamous father), but was toned down, made left-wing friendly (taking parts of the left wing ideas), mixed

You are so right. Try living in Bordeaux when you don't drink wine. It's awful, people wouldn't believe I didn't like the taste of wine. Not my fault, I just dislike it. French people would always try to convince me it&

French people do not really talk much about food. Sometimes with foreigners, because it's a bit of a cliché topic, and foreigners usually may want to talk about it, or as a way to chitchat with a foreigner (but between french people, t
