Can you go into any additional detail about why firechat shut down?

making web apps is the least exciting thing wasm could be used for. plugin systems, embedded, serverless use cases are much more interesting off the top of my head. i think we live…

I think this article does a decent job of highlighting many of the reasons why Closure has fallen into obscurity. https://effectivetypescript.com/2023/09/27/closure-compiler/

I feel so seen in such a bad way

I might be misinterpreting what I'm seeing but I don't see titles on any of them. For instance, on one in southern California, the icon showing the podcast art makes it clear that …

Fantastic idea. Minor issue is that when you tap on one of the flags, you get the podcast episode notes but you don't get the title of the podcast. Title needs to be prominent.

I mean, that's almost exactly how mainstream Hollywood treats actors, women in particular, as well. It tracks to me.

Intentions are useless in this case. What matters are the incentives.

It's ok everyone, they must misspelled Go as Kotlin

The lake is great but it has good days and bad days like anything else. I lived near the lake for years and still think it's heart-rendingly beautiful. Flies weren't usually a prob…

As others have said, the problem is the lake drying up from lack of incoming water. The consequences of the lake drying up is the end of the "lake effect" cycle, the arsenic in the…

The legal system governing water rights in the western United States is utterly absurd. I think it was a stupid system in the beginning but is orders of magnitude more stupid today…

Dear God this is a tired point. The rest of the damn paragraph of the Wikipedia article fully addresses that. Nobody who uses the term "serverless" thinks that magic fairies are re…

100% rollout is the default for me when submitting an app. You're saying it's not for you?

"I reply to comments without reading them or understanding them."

"I wish this person being persecuted by her government would stop being so political"

Use Expo. Ignore anything that ever mentions having to "eject" because that's the giveaway that the information is hopelessly, uselessly out of date. It's fine.

The single threading isn't an issue for many backend use cases and even though JS was initially designed for use in the browser, there's been a decade of development on the languag…

Ejecting is an outdated concept when it comes to Expo for the past two years or so. The eject command in the cli is just an alias for the prebuild command even. The way Expo builds…

There's nothing that requires you to use EAS Update though. You could just stick to submitting builds through the app store like normal.

React Native over flutter all day every day. There's almost nothing you can't do in the react native world when sticking with the managed Expo workflow these days. After Compose Mu…

I'm skeptical that was ever the rain for the rationing.
