    So you don't care how readable your code is?

    I think it's just an information hoarding mentality. Like people you see on hoarding TV shows with stacks upon stacks of old newspapers just in case they "need" to refer to them on…

    The world doesn't work in this "bottom up" way. It's top down.

    You could say the same about a "nothing bad will ever happen" opinion like yours, except a different group benefits from it.

    Doesn't it? You can google "how to make iphone app" (or whatever) and get a wealth of videos, blog posts, guides, tutorials, github repositories. You can join online communities to…

    Neither React or Redux use proxies or setters at all. Are you thinking of a different framework?

    Ocaml does this too.

    There's one footnote that ends up being a punchline, about five words long. The few seconds spent flipping from the page to the footnote lent it a certain comedic timing that would…

    I think it's just because that style isn't widespread in JS in general? I don't think it's anything to do with hooks or React particularly.

    Trying to make improvements for who, and why? That's the important part, and why politics gets so heated. You sound like you're talking about choosing between slightly different fl…

    The "left-wing" media? Who is that exactly?

    What bubble are you referring to there?

    I always associate The Smashing Pumpkins with Doom because of this. By coincidence, one of their songs actually has a Doom sound effect in it.

    I'm not saying he's not successful. He's implying you either have shoddy graphics, or spend big money on AAA graphics. But they're not the only two choices, and that's proven - the…

    But his games don't sit where he thinks they sit. It's baffling as there's a huge market for "retro" looking indie games, and has been for a decade or so. Plenty of successful and …

    From the article: "A woman psychoanalyst wrote me a very intelligent letter in which she said that “in the last analysis, desires always go far beyond the object of desire.” The fa…

    I wonder how much of this is about the author's ego. They can't or don't want to delve into the (admittedly labyrinthine) world of JS, so there must be a matching lack of ability o…

    Yes, functional CSS goes against current best practices, so people write it off without giving it a try. It's a shame as I think it's the best way of doing CSS at this point. For w…

    I disagree. I'd argue React is most useful when doing something highly interactive. There's nothing stopping you from writing imperative, side-effect heavy code. But it's something…

    I do the exact same, down to the "notes" alias. I find the downside to this approach is it doesn't work well on mobile - the Dropbox app can edit files but there's no search and it…
