The thing is you don't know what's going to be slow and you can't realistically test various implementations for every functions. IMHO a better strategy is to code using standard libraries and use a good profiler. Maybe the t

It's missing the most important React feature (Virtual-DOM diff.). More specifically, he's manually adding and keeping track of all DOM elements. Once elements need to be updated, he would need to go back in the DOM and manually a

One thing I'm wondering about graphql is how does it know when something changed in the db and should be re-queried. For example, I fetch some movies in my front-end webapp and they are cached. Then, later on, I query that movie again

The main problem is that hospital administrators and doctors have very different incentives. Administrators want to bill as much as possible, whereas doctors want to take care of patients. However, administrators are the ones who make purch

Yep, things change. Personally it always felt weird to have html separated but I was doing it because I had "html/css integrator" on the team, and it was easier for them to deal with html-only pages. But now, most front-end d

One interesting thing about React is how some big names (Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Yahoo) rallied to React instead of creating their own libraries, whereas they all had their own-cooked libraries before. Also, which is more of a personal opin

I completely agree and I'm excited about this vision for Meteor. The dream would be to have a go-to choice with formidable standards that Just Works. Personally, what I wish existed was a full-stack framework AND dev ops built with the

At first glance, I thought that your website was listing random free items on the internet and that you'd make money with affiliate links. I looked at a few items and they were all given by "MuxMe" so I was really confused as

I agree. I remember my compiler class where we went through the whole Dragon book and we had a lot of theoretical knowledge, but we were disappointed because we practically couldn't build a compiler. We went in too much detail too fast

I think the future of transit is no transit. I.e. VR from home in a virtual office where you interact with other VR-from-home coworkers. I don't think people are ready for this right now, but maybe in 1-2 generations. It's not unc

A toy javascript interpreter is quite easy. But a high-performance, production-ready engine is a totally different story.

Out of curiosity, why rebuilding a whole new engine rather than using/improving V8?

A framework abstracts away common patterns so you don't have to reinvent the wheel all the time. That being said, not everyone agree on what are the same common patterns or the best way to solve them, hence why there's so many fra

Like raising money, you should trust the "No", but not the "Why". There are so many factors that comes into hiring, most of them totally unrelated to you or your performance during the interview.

Also something less talked about is how hospital administrators don't want to share their data for competitive advantages. So, they're more than happy letting the EMR vendors taking the blame for the lack of interoperability while
