The S&P 500 has dropped over 40% multiple times including 1929. It did it in the 70s, 2000 and 2008/9. The COVID crash nearly hit those levels also

I'm kind of disappointed that this isn't a simulator for managing what happens inside the airport rather than ATC. I'm also unsure why I feel that way as it sounds like a nightmare…

I'm also bummed. My company shutdown the money burning pit due to fire safety concerns

That much is the key. They're still washed, otherwise they would have all kinds of crap on them (literally, chickens only have one hole), they just aren't subjected to chemicals an…

I was searching for a comment like this. It sounds like a crazy workaround for Flutter's strange architectural choices

Or America's advantage is by its own design. Rich people can invest relatively small amounts in hundreds, if not thousands of startups through preferentially treated retirement fun…

We must be buying different things if you think Amazon is cheap in the EU. I find almost everything can be had cheaper elsewhere these days, except the Chinese junk like you find o…

Dude. They're even on the React Native showcase page. I don't know what to say but you're massively mistaken. Uber use React Native too BTW. Lots of other big tech companies also, …

It's probably within an order of magnitude but it's really just hobbyists, casuals and indies using it. If you compare it to React Native there probably are more Flutter apps publi…

LOL Bolt is a React Native shop. Just Google "bolt react native" they have jobs and articles about their usage but also any library inspector will tell you that.

No. Read the simple form of my response, the first part. What you said was an example of one factor as to why it's more complex than the simple form for people who really want to d…

This old myth is as old as the RN vs Flutter debate itself and I'm willing to help bust it again. The simple answer is that when people have a problem or question about Flutter the…

Since when was Flutter the "go-to solution for cross-platform development"? Maybe for hobbyists but in the corporate space it's still React Native. The problem with Flutter, and th…

The wig costs $2m a year? I need to get into this business. The vegan diet probably saves a few bucks but I doubt he's any fitter than any other guy who spends that many hours a da…

It's easy for a new app, plug and play! It gets harder if you want to retrofit it to an older app using older third party libraries that have no or limited support. You have to pic…

> There is also no practical way to build on React Native without using a metric ton of third party libraries As an author of a few quite large React Native apps I have to disagree…

Snap is trying to generate headlines in a desperate attempt to stay relevant. This has nothing to do with WFH. Just a sorry attempt at trying to piggyback on Musk's just as despera…

I'm an older engineer too and I am very aware of how frustrating this can be for techs of all ages so I made our screening test less fizzbuzz, do my work for me and gotcha question…

Works beautifully on an M1. I never have any of the issues that colleagues do on their heavily IT mutilated PCs.

Did they actually dump it in the end though or just announce it? Appbrain still lists React Native in the list of SDKs for the current version. https://www.appbrain.com/app/airbnb/…

That's why PPP is so great. When using it, it doesn't matter if the person makes 150 euros an hour if it costs them that much for a meal but the person in Italy only has to work ha…

Anecdotally there is a lot more content for React Native than Flutter. I hang around the subs for both and the amount of lmgtfy answers vs idk is much higher for RN. Most common is…

This comparison is ridiculous. Flutter and Dart go hand in hand as the only thing people use Dart for is Flutter. If you want to compare them you need to add React Native + React +…

Is anyone surprised? A lot of the large tech companies that have been saying it's ok to work from home have almost as much invested in real estate as they do in their own technolog…

I always figured it had something to do with lactose intolerance. Somewhere between 40 and 50% of the population are intolerant which is high compared to most of western Europe.
