The likely endgames of 'no tracking' (accelerated by automating rejection rate up to 100%) are: - drastically reduced free content (see the rise of paywalls on most news sites) - an arms race to find other ways to track (see rise

Arrow itself is a standardised in-memory columnar data representation. The benefit of this is you can then send data between processes without needing to be concerned with serialise/deserialise. There's then a growing ecosystem ar

Excalidraw can store the files, although it's a little hidden: the link option in export gives a link that downloads an encrypted JSON from their server.

I've found Rust is great for doing heavy lifting (parsing/compiling/graph analysis, etc) on the frontend, as long as you can define the boundary between wasm/JS reasonably cleanly. And in that code I don't think the

I don't think it's fair to say React hooks are optimising for writability, even if they are much shorter, but modularity. While lifecycle methods are 'obvious and straightforward', they often spread related functionality

Personally, beyond development, I haven't found rollback migrations particularly useful. Once you've run migrations on a live database, it's often much simpler operationally to treat any rollback as a new migration, to keep t

Looks good, just giving a shot at integrating. On the API, it would be great if your events API would accept a user-agent string, would make generating events on the server easier, and lighten the JS blob for clients.

Relay looks like it will partially replace Flux if you're using it to manage the client<->server state, but Flux still seems necessary if you have a lot of intra-client state to manage (such as in a document-editing SPA).

Thanks, that's useful, I'll take a look at moving across.

Is there much benefit in using Phoenix for the server for a SPA where 95% is API routes, over using Plug directly? I guess it might make adding websocket services easier in future? (I've been very impressed with Plug/Ecto, just wo

Well yes, it's not ideal for all development, but you professed a need for smaller filesize, which it's ideal for. Naming conventions can alleviate most of the variable issues, it's just another way to solve the problem that

by vmind 12y ago
If it's just a snippet, and require.js made up 20% of the filesize, then why not just have a single file, or assume a single closure and concatenate a few files together? You'll gain even better filesize from minifying inside a si

Rust relies on a newer version of LLVM than Emscripten is based on (as Emscripten-fastcomp is based on the PNaCl fork of LLVM, which is lagging behind). Once the PNaCl fork is updated and Emscipten rebases, or they rebase onto LLVM proper,

The second link by uulbiy ( https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/2j9caq/anonabox_to... ) shows they were much more deceptive (in direct questions) than just being vague on their kickstarter page.

Not who you're replying to, but there's a similar class at Cambridge where you implement pong/game of life on an FPGA board. Some of the practical course notes are available publicly, though the full computer design notes ref

Yes, this seems like a much better approach. I mean, creating components based on path state is completely trivial, once you have state driven by a router, and lets you be explicit about how state is moving around. react-router seems to be

Do you mean a ClojureScript compiler compiled to JavaScript? ClojureScript can be compiled and run in v8 just fine right now.

There are actually two main React libraries for ClojureScript, Om[1] and Reagent[2]. There are also other libraries for doing the templating if you prefer hiccup[3] or enlive[4] style templates, which I find a bit more readable than straigh
