I don't think it is standard practice but depends on neighborhood. Trying to re-deliver a package should be more costly than covering the cost of lost package when the crime rate is low.

I agree that “do it this way” can be godsend. However, suggesting a library is only one of the ways. By suggesting all these tiny libraries, I don’t think we will mentor the less experienced community in the right direction.

I disagree. That something is reusable is not enough for it to become a library. There should be other benefits, because, using an external library has its own drawbacks.

Hooks are interesting. We are reading about it and evaluating it. However, I have a hard time in understanding why I should use all these tiny ‘use’ libraries? Hooks are already simple to implement such small snippets yourself in your codeb

I still don't understand what you expect DataLoader or GraphQL to solve for you. The list of problems you mentioned are not what DataLoader/GraphQL are trying to solve. I am even not sure if there is an individual library that can

I didn’t understand why you have to use caching with DataLoader. I am also not sure about what you mean by inconsistency. The n + 1 query problem is usually solved by making two consecutive queries to the database. One for the root element

Subscriptions usually work better when the variety of content/product offered is big. Amazon, Netflix, Spotify, NY Times; these companies offer a lot of content from a lot of producers. In contrast, most media subscriptions offer you a

I didn’t do React Native programming in a real product and only played with it but like many others, I used Javascript in different runtimes against different APIs. The most famous ones are of course DOM and NodeJS. The biggest advantage of

After 1.5 years, I can tell that using GraphQL compared to REST/Redux feels like using SQL instead of implementing your own database.

Bitcoin, if not worse, has similar problems that cash money has. While governments trying to get rid off cash, now we have Bitcoin on top of that. There will be regulations on Bitcoin for sure but how can it be regulated without breaking th

Wow. The writer of this article like many other articles I read about Bitcoin in these days does not seem to care about all illegal activities happening on top of Bitcoin, and just talking about it as one of the killer apps. Am I the only o

A typed query language will definitely help for anything you store either locally or remotely. In this case, it would provide information to compiler to do most of the type checking for you. It is not only GraphQL itself I had in mind thoug

I was imagining a React style UI framework but for desktop apps. The ingredients I have in mind are React, GraphQL, and Rust. I think these three solve the problems of their respective areas the best and combining them together would be pri

My only concern with DRM in browser is that, as far as I understand the technology, any website can put a small piece of arbitrary DRM content and your browser will send information to that website uniq to your device, and your device will

It is good to witness so much improvement in VR tech but most people focus on the eye. I think the killer step in VR and also AG will be when we can use all our fingers. Once we have that it will be a huge improvement in contrast to 2D inte

(1) For the sake of extending the same analogy, the question is not whether people should have vacations and cars or not, it is about everybody asking for luxury vacations or cars. (2) IMHO, housing may for sure move some people closer to t

I have 2 questions: (1) Do not such articles sound like "not everyone can afford a holiday in Hawai"? Or "all my friends have a Mercedes AMG but I don't"? What is the difference? * (2) In Bay Area, the daily commute

This complaint looks to me about some devs jumping to use the alpha version of v2 and got confused about which version the homepage points to. This is separate and a minor problem which they have fixed anyways.

It is hard to find well maintained JS libraries in these days. Thanks a lot for the mature work done here, especially in terms of documentation. So many OS projects launch their new shiny versions in such a rush, they leave their users in d

The story is very important and thanks to NY Times for covering it. However, calling it "Turkish" history is a few thousand years short.

This looks like a poorly written sponsored article. More housing will boom real estate market, and only for short term. I don't believe new housing will help average Joe to have better prices. To the contrary, it will make some real es

That is the core of this discussion I believe. Bay Area is really hot as a place to live and many real estate investors are very much aware of that. I can assure you that most of the new housing put there just becomes a big target for the i
