The myth of top talent is overrated, especially in managerial positions for companies where the workers have more say in decisions.

I feel that pain, yeah. On the other hand, at least the error messages are often helpful with Webpack.

They do reveal a pattern that is equivalent to ignoring the canaries in a coalmine. The Amazon's fires are crucial this year not because there was not burning previously, but because once the ecosystems collapse, there is no regaining

As someone have pointed out in the thread itself: this is not in any way React's fault. If you want, you can add (p)react for a few kb to your page, serve a max 20-25k js code with it and still do not match the served image's size

Thank you for posting articles like these. I feel a bit relieved seeing how its not demigods with decades of in-domain experience who create sometimes huge, monumental modules or building blocks of whole languages, but instead: actual huma

But this is exactly the point of studies like this. They are written in a way that allows misinterpretation, and then the media can pick it up and run with it (like they did with this one). There is a large body of writing about P-hacking,

It is not. Please read the summary of the study,and tell me that that the conclusions drawn there are reasonable.

A coworker linked the original study to me, and was quite glib about how this new study is quite reliable and so on. I checked it out, immediately got suspicious by the article (that was even more nonsensical, since it was not written by a

Here is the thing though (8+ year vegetarian here, with vegan periods): we have been grown up eating shit like that. Eating sausages, salami, all that jazz. There is nothing wrong with going back to the spices and texture of that. A certifi

It is rather interesting to me to see that V8 has been packing so many micro-optimizations and special techniques over the years that now it has become actually feasible to just start cutting back on the optimizations to have performance ga

Biodegradability means nothing in the context of plastic that ends up in rivers, seas and oceans. Nothing. That is not a solution. We need waste control, enforced harsh laws on producers (industries and tourists and waste manager companies)

Exactly. Its very hard to claim that one is just putting stuff out on "the marketplace of ideas", when in reality, losing ground to an ideology that places people who have non-majority skin color, sexuality or religious views (or

Exactly. It is only when upfront sale gets combined with season passes AND microtransactions AND lootbox-systems is when criticism gets to arise. Rightfully.

If you are honest in your approach to selling games, you will not get overwhelming criticism about ANY of the above game modes. Full-priced games have tens of millions of sales regularly. Games that do not hide content behind paywalls can

You keep moving the goalpost. Lets just assume we are on a caloric budget and we deal with fat being fat, so we can, like good third graders in math, just count the calories. No more wiggling around with "too many calories" and &

You are bullshitting against fats and vegetables, for what reason I do not know. But nuts and seeds are NOT "almost 100%" percent fat. They range from fat contents of 30g to upwards 70-75g per 100g (walnuts, for example, are on a

Your body needs fat. Also, olive oil contains plenty of antioxidants, and Vitamin K and E - so the claim that it is just empty calories is pointless. Also, just a thought game for you: if I were to claim that your carbs are just empty calor

You should not buy this, olive oils are one of the healthiest sources of fat on this earth. Plenty of studies confirm it.

No I do not. You will have to work very hard to back up the claim that modern DOM operations are not costly. Plenty of lookups can cause repaint or reflow. Scenario A: (Vdom-like approach) - Render x with dimensions x,y,z,w. - Store the

Ew, not really. Even the getters can be performance-heavy in DOM-land. If you store your data in JS-land, and only diff against that, you never need to touch the dom for anything, except the endpoint insertions. At worst , it is matched ev

I was running some quite complex UI systems in several of my projects with vanillaJS, cached DOM elements, all that jazz. Nothing like VDOM. Then eventually, it started to finally bog me down. Like rendering an inventory in an RPG system wh

That is frustrating, I concede on that point. (If there is one thing that is bad about the JS ecosystem, its the brittleness and complexities of setting up build tools. If you get together one that suits your need, you do not look at it aga
