    And likewise I feel like a broken record, but try MobX instead of Redux. Much quicker to get started.

    Regarding state management, have you tried MobX? It makes state management almost ridiculously simple. I've noticed a slight performance hit using it for deriving values for 60fps …

    Good point. I suppose what I meant was more that types are at the core of Elm and pervade every part of the language, whereas TS/Flow are adding types on top of a dynamic language …

    Absolutely agree, this is one of the biggest benefits I have found since I started working with Typescript (that, and the ease of refactoring). Of course Flow/Typescript's approach…

    I thought the very same thing, as I can see the benefits to both having a single atomic commit for ease of reading history, and to being able to see the individual commits that mad…

    Ah amazing, thank you! I had been doing it with https://rocketgraph.com/reports/21-discover-weekly-archiver but the archived playlists live within their web app rather than Spotify…

    I was going to say the same, Discover Weekly frequently really impresses me with some of its selections and I have discovered some excellent artists through it. I'm into electronic…

    I've been using the v2 beta (along with https://github.com/jhudson8/react-chartjs/tree/chartjs-v2 ) and have been really impressed with it in general, thanks for all the hard work!…

    Thanks for the detailed reply, very helpful :) I wasn't trying to raise an issue at all, merely state that Spacemacs isn't as obvious to a new user as Atom - but I'm not saying tha…

    That's a fair point, didn't even occur to me!

    I downloaded and tried Spacemacs out of curiosity, after seeing your comment. While I'm sure it adds a lot of usability features compared to the default Emacs config and it looks p…

    I understand the point here and agree to some extent, but on the other hand I think using a standardised set of emojis makes sense for cross-platform communication apps such as Wha…

    Yeah, you are right. It's just a particularly annoying bug because: 1. It broke my phone pretty fundamentally, 2. It was a third party app that broke core functionality (in a round…

    It's happened to both me and my girlfriend. It's not very common but seems to happen sometimes when software is updating when it has a good signal/wifi and you move into an area of…

    You're right, I guess "stability" is probably more accurate. At the end of the day, it represents app(s) breaking the phone in very fundamental ways, in spite of the sandboxing iOS…

    Interesting, I am fairly certain the problem didn't surface until a few days after installing 9.3 although I could be wrong.

    The current theory according to the article is that booking.com's app downloads a 2.4mb file of links for its "universal links" data (that annoying thing where you get taken to an …

    Your thoughts echo mine exactly (right down to submitting a story that got no votes!). The fact that this kind of bug would have a lower impact on Android (i.e. wouldn't disable ma…

    OP here, posting this as I am experiencing this issue with links from e.g. Google on Safari, and links from in-app webviews. I thought the MacRumours link shows the extent of the i…
