Why is this a gem? It's two view helpers and like 30 lines of Ruby code, if that. I've solved this problem the same way probably 5 times in rails apps and it's super easy to build this interface in yourself without taking on

If you both watched it, we could simply count the number of interruptions and see if she was interrupted statistically significantly more. There's an objective answer and opinions don't really count here.

I highly, highly, doubt that. If anything - Amazon is going to win because it can now Monetize Apple customers.

That's the quote that jumped out to me too. I moved to Chrome about 5-6 years ago, and I'm utterly shocked that they haven't done this yet. I remember this being the reason I switched to Chrome. And they still haven't do

I read through the differences, and they seem small enough that for any decently sized project with a non-trivial team you'd choose React and in most cases probably not even consider Vue.

Almost makes you think the hysteria was the goal. The next illuminating question is "why," and the fallout the next couple of weeks will answer that. Problem -> Reaction -> Solution.

I like databases that don't require you run a specific browser for it to work, but what do I know? I thought we got over "you must run this browser to have the app work" stuff when we all got off IE6. I understand the use cas

Sounds like its a long jump to say "its the same IDE you love, on the mac" It sounds like its BASED on the same IDE, but fundamentally provides a completely different feature set, and ability to compile to completely different pla

So I hear you like apps in your apps, and mobile in your web on your mobile.

You have no limits as long as you're willing to learn. I'd ensure that even though you are self-taught, to ensure you understand the basics of CS like data-structures and algorithms. Most engineers I've interviewed for engine

In multiple places, especially towards the end, the author touches on negative feedback loops as much as positive ones. That said - in a zero sum game for resources, a positive feedback loop is in itself a negative feedback loop for others.

Very true. Yet as a manager leading a team of mainly backend engineers who don't have lots of interest in front-end development - we need a toolchain that is easy to pick up, easy to understand the fundamentals, and easy to train inter

I'm still in the Rails/Bootstrap/jQuery camp. When you need something quick, that will function, and not look like shit - you really can't beat this option. It's also easy to teach junior developers, and they streng

Yes but have you worked on that with 10 other developers and deployed it to multiple stages or environments for testing and then onto production hundreds of times for paying customers?

LOL - Reddit has been caught literally editing the content. They then play the "community powered" card when in reality the mods are groomed and selected for major sub-reddits. The level of total control is the same - the mechanis

Agreed - however as we progress I expect a comment like this to be akin to Bill Gate's 64K comment.

The "robot" generated CSS the author ends the article with looks clever. I'll ignore the logic that since CSS is bad we should write Javascript instead. Rarely is the answer "write more javascript" or "find a w

But then you need to be good at Typescript, React, AND Javascript to build a feature. And that's not even considering databases, server middle ware, etc.

Rails, bootstrap, react when necessary on portions of pages. Use regular links again - use regular forms again, remember - AJAX can be cool, but it doesn't have to be the whole app. Remember when the server generated HTML? You could mi
