I think hooks are just not for me because I don't think those examples look elegant.

by Vanit 8y ago
Hooks seem great for simple usecases but I can't see how you'd not end up with a mess once you have 3+, and since most components inevitably gain complexity, why use hooks to start with?

This oddly reminds me of gamergate whereby engaging on the facts seems to side you with the abusers.

You're right, but I don't think this is quite what the quote is referencing. If payment details are stored and kids are merely presented with a colourful popup confirming they want to spend $99 for 2000 gems, it doesn't seem

I still write little http servlets like this sometimes, especially for something like gluing IoT services together.

Don't have the link handy, but Gitlab is one.

"Understandable — like regular expressions", out of context, but I chuckled.

I'm really interested to see where this leads. They got some quick wins out of this, but they're going to need to somehow revert a lot of game systems to get it back to something approximating the vanilla experience.

If I'm having fun, seriously.

Not in one individual, but animals that die from eating them will self select themselves out of the gene pool (if done before they get a chance to mate), over time only leaving those that avoid it. The more generations that survive this the

Considering the benchmark for profitable mining is against electricity costs... It's a no from me.

I think all you've illustrated is how not to design for brains :) Why would you need to even think in terms of inputs or buttons? Why even use words when you could post or consume thoughts directly?

I know how public domain works. My comment was making light of the OP's ambiguous analogy.
258.
by Vanit 9y ago

Also migrated to a Dell XPS 15 as new Macs stopped exciting me. No coil whine in mine, but it was hell finding just the right bios version so sleep would work. And if you don't use a specific Intel you driver version you get screen fli

I'm not concerned about AI, but I am concerned about AI being improperly used. In Australia there was a recent controversy with the govt using big data to improperly correlate tax returns with information submitted to centrelink (socia

Its not even that, its disingenuous because you're being their friend in the hopes you'll get a payout.

I think this skips out probably what is the biggest hurdle for "nerds"; you can't trick your crushes into liking you back by being a nice friend to them.

Reminds me of the language of the Observers in Fringe, whose language was so advanced it was rare to see repeating symbols.

Not sure why they couldn't rename it, make the previous function an alias of the new one, and deprecate it.

Not sure on a machine, but Steam is getting a lot of great indie party games these days that might be appropriate.
