I don't believe in planning when to stare at the wall. I just do it when I feel like it - whenever - sometimes family members are around. Be reasonably spontaneous - you'll calibra…

Unfortunately the big game is opaque it's close to impossible to understand for the common folk. So many questions, so tough to grasp answers. Sickening. The enemy is hiding. One c…

Honestly there might be truth to it, I don't get the downvotes - why?

I personally think null is useless. I write TS not JS btw.

It might be like that. Everyone should strive to make the best decisions and not go with the mainstream. Always question the mainstream, it's dangerous. Make a change for the bette…

My company tried it but reverted the changes. The biggest reasons - it's not compatible with mobx and we didn't notice any perf gains on an existing codebase.

Do you find anything "bad" about this code solving the problem? use std::rc::Rc; use std::cell::RefCell; struct Button { text: String, on_click: Option >, } impl Button { fn new(te…

You world view is very one-sided, it borders with total naiveness.

The US also are by law not allowed to start a war without the approval of Congress, right? But they did anyway in Venezuela.

+ 3 bits for piece type?

From kernel side, I meant - I wasn't clear. Now I understand what's the meaning of "don't break rust code". Happy that rust's journey in the kernel is successful so far. The pace s…

Is rust code part of user space?

Totally agree. One might require to be "in their head" a lot of the time to not get swung down, and enjoy himself such as laughing at his own jokes. To make it possible, one has to…

Yes, that's an OK take, no big deal. Also it can be added that life in itself really doesn't have a choice, on some level it just happens (thinking more about chemistry here).

Is there a way to connect components similarly like react-redux so that they can access external state without prop drilling? Good job.

Can one do 3D in Gleam?

Does not work for me on desktop Firefox. When I press the "make it swim!" button, there's an error in console: "Uncaught (in promise) Error: Fish model not loaded"

For a simple dev like me, that would be learning the lang and using it for some project.

I don't find Elixir appealing for various reasons personally. But on a related note, I'm willing to bet on Gleam big time.

Can you tell more, please? I'm interested to know what did you build that had an interesting growth to you. Could you please expand on one project of yours? Thank you!

What I've had heard so far about cod's troubles in the Baltic sea is that it's not salty enough for them. For cod to reproduce, their eggs need a certain salinity so that they swim…

Probably yes, with From and Into traits.

"This is the famous UI = f(state) mental model of React". Famously incorrect generalization. Why? For example, the useRef hook enables components to hold their own state. React com…
