I disagree, I don't want my project to successfully build at all if I have type errors.

Wow, this is fortuitous for me. I've been wanting something like this for quite some time, and was literally just thinking about it this morning. I've had a lot of ideas for certain small side projects that have ended up dead in t

Thanks for details. Here's my response to most of them (some of this is definitely anecdotal of course). > - Slow debug cycle due to increased compile time. If using TDD, it takes longer to run tests. The delays adds up. I've n

> It's not worth it. Productivity will drop enormously How does TypeScript make your "productivity drop enormously"? It has type inference, union types, looks just like ES6, and the typing is fully optional. The learning

Have you used TypeScript 3.0? They improved the type errors a lot. I'd highly recommend giving it another shot.

One interesting thing about Dark Souls is that there is quite a bit of ambiguity around what the "age of dark" actually implies, and there's a lot of hints that it might actually be a beneficial state for humanity. Personally

Yes, but you still need insulin on keto. In fact, starting keto can be dangerous for a T1D at first until you find out what your new, lower, requirements are. You put yourself at risk of hypoglycemia, so you have to be extra careful with do

The article WAS focused on type 1, though, where there is no cure, from diet or otherwise. It's absolutely revolutionary for those of us with type 1.

For me it would have the same things that make Typescript appealing: - Full access to a large and mature ecosystem (one that Crystal doesn't quite have) - The ability to gradually add typing to an existing Ruby codebase. No need to rew

I've been a fan of Ruby for about 5 years, but lately I've been leaning a lot more heavily towards statically typed languages. Which is why Crystal is at the top of my "want to learn" list. Ruby inspired syntax and stati

5% for conservative and 7% for aggressive would have been better choices...I know the goal was to make this calculator simple, but those values should have be configurable with saner defaults.

I'd recommend trying out create-react-app if you want to learn React without having to worry about all the build tooling craziness. Eventually you'll have to start fighting with those if you build some real life stuff, but create-

Good point, I wasn't really thinking about styling 3rd party components. styled-components makes it sort of okay, but still feel hacky.
18.
by naiyt 9y ago
styled-components are actually really nice, so I don't think it's fair to say "styling is React's worst part". This seems like a more general criticism of React's agnosticism when it comes to so many things. Re

> two way data binding Maybe it's better in Vue than it was in AngularJS, but this seems like a downside to me.

This is the first I've heard of it. What, in your opinion, makes it so much better from a developer experience perspective?

Believe me, I'm more than aware of the negative side effects and potential dangers (especially with Xiidra, which is a new medication without long term studies). Xiidra is costing me about $200 a month, after insurance. But in my case

Nope, never took Accutane. I got a full examination from a specialist (including a LipiView analysis) and the conclusion was that I don't have MGD. My glands look mostly fine, and my issues stem primarily from inflammation as a result

They addressed this argument in the article, and why smartphones are inherently different than TV (or any number of other distractions that people have worried about in the past).

Same. It's funny because occasionally when you call support they require you to answer one of those questions. "That's correct, my childhood pet's name was 1xs3^&szx!@!24"

After reading that it sounds like they just haven't been able to reproduce the process of making it, not that it's an alloy that they don't understand the composition of.

Have you considered audio books? That's the main way I consume fiction these days. I love listening to audio books while doing other things (commuting, cleaning, going on walks, etc). It's a good alternative (or companion) to list

Yeah, I also got misdiagnosed as T2 (at 23). Too many doctors still immediately jump to a T2 diagnosis if you're not a kid anymore. There's a reason we don't call it "child onset diabetes" anymore.

Kind of related: it's fun as a Type 1 Diabetic when people tell me that I should be able to manage my disease with just diet. Or when they get upset because I eat a bowl of ice cream or something (even though I bolused properly for the

I'm glad she got that full story posted on Vice, I hate having to scroll through long Twitter chains to get a story.
