It seems like the move is to force ByteDance to set up a company incorporated wholly in the United States, which would then be subject to the oversight of the US government. Then, Byte Dance would lease the IP surrounding TikTok to this sep

I suspect they want better condition handling. Because JavaScript lacks a useful conditional expression beyond ternary expressions, condition handling in JSX generally uses boolean operators or ternary expressions. Suppose the conditional l

Most computer users don't use command-line apps day in and day out. Most computer users nowadays use chat apps (Discord, Slack, Whatsapp) and have probably encountered bots on those platforms before. There is an inherent familiarity th

Substitute software for standard accountancy practices or a filing system that led to lost files, giving the incorrect impression that postmasters were stealing, and the result would have been the same. The core issue is an organisiation th

It would be nice if the author would add mozjpeg[1] to the comparison. At certain image resolutions, it can produce smaller file sizes than WebP, and because it is still a jpeg, it has a much better compatibility story, which the author all

I think the use of template strings simplifies it, even inline: const { status } = await send(`${capitalize(greeting)}!`) console.log(status) It does reduce the number of discrete operations to make the pipe example look more impressive, th

Perhaps this falls into the repetitive boilerplate category you referred to, but if you want framework-agnostic domain objects that still work well with Svelte, create your own using the observer pattern. Create an object with a subscribe m

In my experience, the quality and depth of my code reviews were a main contributing element in my last promotion conversation for a senior+ role. It wasn't even a metric I had to scrounge up but something my manager proactively raised

I saw a production of Ulysses twice in the Abbey Theatre in Dublin on two separate runs. I had already read the book, but seeing it performed was a completely different experience, like seeing a Shakespeare text performed in film or on stag

The audiobook, narrated by Jim Norton, is also great. His delivery is quite engaging, and any parts that might be a bit impenetrable while reading flow over you, and you can hook back in later.

I understand the rationale behind using the native constructs of JavaScript as much as possible, but this is where I feel Solid.js made a reasonable compromise to pragmatism. There are JSX constructs for conditions and looping, making certa

If the people don't exist, they can't produce. You can make all the policy decisions you want, but the economy will stagnate if you don't have people working in fields or factories or wiring up houses. Sure, better education

I think one of the biggest benefits, which I rarely see mentioned, is that all the class names are shared. When building your CSS for production, you can look at the classes you use and only add them to your CSS bundle. If you remove a clas

This is technically true if you go out and start running a lot from zero if you are overweight or ignore your body and the warnings it gives in the run-up to injury. If you build up running gradually and treat it as a skill that you learn a

You also don't need the mat, also known as the pellicle, to start brewing kombucha. It is entirely redundant. Just get a couple of bottles of unpasteurised, unflavoured kombucha and use that as your starter, along with the fresh tea an

Ain't that the truth? So much folklore and superstition about how the fermentation process works. I remember being told you can't make Jun with a Kombucha starter because it's a different bacteria, and even if you did get Kom

Minor correction, Svelte dispenses with the Virtual DOM an algorithm for making DOM updates, not the Shadow DOM which is a completely separate browser construct for isolating subtrees in the DOM.

Or there is Inferno which is VDOM based and outperforms Svelte on most benchmarks. The whole narrative of "VDOM is pure overhead" doesn't hold out in practice, and I suspect really just an excuse to attack React and promote S

We used to listen to that 3 CD box set on family driving holidays when I was a child. We get the ferry from Dublin, drive through the UK, get the Eurotunnel to Calais and then head wherever, though usually, we end up in Italy. I remember in

I think the site looks grand. One suggestion would be to make your card background white rather than yellow. I think it would help with contrast against the background of the site and make the text easier to read. Other than that you have y

If a student can look up anything on ChatGPT it could very well inhibit their ability to develop critical thinking skills. They could just copy the output of ChatGPT rather than actually engaging with a text like Of Mice and Men, for exampl

This could have been a year ago at this stage. It was on r/svelte, if I recall correctly. Svelte doesn't have idioms for reusable reactive logic. The $ sign is used to drive functionality in Svelte, so you can't use it to sig

I'm primarily a React user and would generally agree with you, but I understand why people like Vue/Svelte. - Templating languages have been around for years, and for many, they feel like the right way to write markup. If someone

It's funny; I often see it the opposite way. Passing components as props enables inversion of control and usually helps split responsibilities up more easily and generally avoids prop drilling or super components that do everything.

Solid does have state management. Its state management primitives can be used outside components and can even be used completely on their own, and its stores are fairly similar to Svelte stores. https://www.solidjs.com/docs&
