I'm talking about Emancipation. So no, this isn't temporarily taking something from the rich, or something that could have been solved through "mutually beneficial voluntary action". The government told a bunch of rich p

You can still use vanilla-OO React. Do you complain when other frameworks add new features without breaking backwards compatibility?

React is almost 12 years old and has dominated frontend development for almost a decade. I'd bet most JS backend projects still use Express as the webserver, and it's even older than React. Can we please retire this meme? It'

Talk to any Canadian and tell me that trust in the US as an ally hasn't been irreparably damaged. Global geopolitics are complicated . It's true on some level that no one trusts anyone else, but relative levels of trust still mat

It's public data already.

The data is publicly available. Researchers could get it by scraping, this law says that companies must provide more convenient ways to access that public data. This has fuck all to do with government overreach or access to private data.

As a senior+ engineer, I have no interest in working for a company that doesn't hire junior or midlevel engineers. Mentoring the next generation is not only one of the most rewarding parts of my career, it also levels me up. The US t

They don't prioritize growth for the same reason healthy cells don't prioritize growth. You need to be cancer or a public corporation to think growth is the most important thing.

All of your points are premised on the idea that the only purpose of a corporation is to make as much money for its shareholders as possible. But that isn't true, especially in the case of a cooperative. Most companies make decisions b

As a member of that crowd, you're misrepresenting the argument. It is absolutely censorship when a private company does it, but they have the right to do so; it is not illegal. But they also cannot force me to use their platform, I hav

You don't have the right for anyone to care about what you say, and never have. Your argument seems to be that the New York Times has no choice but to publish my op-ed, because otherwise how will anyone find it?

Is it more dangerous? Facebook has done more harm to the average American than the Chinese Communist Party has. More dangerous to the US government? Yes, that's true.

I don't think the number of games in the catalogue matters in this discussion? There are hundreds of Switch games that perform great, and I don't care because I will never play them. When I play a game and there are frame drops, s

I'm not sure you understand what snapshot testing is. It's a form of testing where you render frontend components and take a "snapshot", storing the output and saving it for later, then on the next test run, the componen

The problem with snapshot tests is that they tend to fail when something is changed . One property of good tests is that they only fail when something is broken . Snapshot tests aren't really automated tests, because you have to manu
