Posts often reference people, events, technology, places, etc. Grok effortlessly provides background, counterpoints, etc. I find it amazingly useful.

Nope. The defence strongly objected multiple times and sought a mistrial over Daniels' testimony; Judge Merchan ultimately allowed most of it over their objections, setting up a likely issue for appeal by Trump's team.

A quote from a Soviet-era-someone, perhaps Stalin himself. With a compromised judicial process, there are ways to convict any person.

Sadly, a substantial part of the left has become illiberal. But, thankfully, the purity spirals have recently stopped spinning as aggressively.

The InterViews library, written by John Vlissides, was for writing GUIs in C++ under X11. It came out in the early 90s. (Yes, I'm an ancient programmer) He was one of the Gang of Four who wrote Design Patterns, but he wrote this libra

The article makes no mention of Photobiomodulation (and there’s no mention in these comments at the time of writing). And that's odd. Because that's the HUGE idea here. Yes, there are concerns about the harms associated with the

This essay smells like referred pain. If the author has a good case, he should just debate PG directly on his Coinbase stance. Because it sure feels to me that that's the real issue here. All the rest of the snarkiness is motivated by

Oh Man, it is certainly nice to hear something positive. Thanks!

Answers to your three points: - I'm wondering if re-frame-test might help? - That ship has sailed a long time ago. And, even if it hadn't, I diagree that symbols would be better. - I'm unfamiliar with angular's

I appreaciate you saying that, thanks.

I've lost track of how many times you have posted pretty much exactly the same thing. Seems slightly fixated.

Docs on builtin effects were added last week. http://day8.github.io/re-frame/api/ Then click "Builtin effects" in the left Nav. I'm actually working on the API docs at the moment and wrestling with

If those code examples were in an unfamiliar language (ClojureScript), would they still be useful? I've been under the impression that the concepts would have been a more helpful in that case.

Checking: you had a few hundred event handlers in the one namespace? That worries me.

And yet I've also had people tell me the opposite - they say they liked the water cycle analogy, even more than the subsequent dominoes narrative. Hmm. Hard to know what to do about such conflicting feedback.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

Hmm. This is likely to devolve into a static vs dynamic typing borefest. There is no right here: it is just different brain wiring (preferences), backed by motivated reasoning on both sides. But to address the three points you raise... I&#x

Thanks for the feedback. In this regard, I think things have improved a little over the last 8 months, stepwise. In our busy world, people want more immediate summaries and progress. These docs arose out of me trying to teach my team how t

Well, I'm glad to hear it might have improved. After taking a battering in this thread, I'll take any possible small win. What you reference is an attempt at a joke which requires certain cultural knowledge (Early Star Trek). On t

Hmm. In my experience, this an unusual opinion (to me, the author). Over the years the re-frame documentation has been the most praised part of the project. Could you point out the area which you found unnecessarily difficult, and I'll

I don't like his analysis. I don't think it models what's going on currently. And because of that, it doesn't allow us to think about the problem correctly. IMO, the key thing that's happened since 2010 is that ther

The thread hanging off this post (which had nothing to do with downvoting) has been "disappeared". That leaves a bad taste. It seems unnecessary.
