Might annoy or alienate a CEO (maybe that’s a warning sign?). But, these are the right questions to ask.

I came across this while Googling, "do humans increase entropy". The crux of this article is the theoretical generalization by Jeremy England (MIT physicist) that life exists because it increases entropy. And, arguably, that Darwi

What about the opposite? I recently (past few years) have no problem thinking and solving problems while I sleep. Surely this is something a younger me strived for. How can I turn back to fantastic dreams, adventures and generally things of

I dig the desert. It’s nice to escape to e.g. Joshua Tree. Later this summer I’ll be hiking Mt. Whitney, and will swing through Death Valley on the way home. 15k altitude change in a few hours.

This might sound dumb. But, I use ProtonVPN because Mozilla partnered with them and I place trust in Mozilla’s ability to make a more informed choice than I can make — largely due to their access to information and on hand knowledge and exp

Your alternative is dependency injection. What you seem to be describing is class factories (I.e. the use of meta classes) which /is/ OOP. That said, I think OOP is fine. And so is FP. They’re just tools, and I would prefer to mod

Hi – I wrote rbx[0] as a React UI Framework based on Bulma. In the process, I learned a ton of TypeScript, a bunch about front-end testing, and have become quite fond of this language and community. My approach to building a UI Framework wa

Well, I’d love to learn more about PenOS, but Google seems to provide NSFW results. Anyone have a demo video? Edit: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=x0XE08BjQDQ

I went the other way. I enjoyed using VueJS. But the quality of the library and community on React seems a bit better. It probably helps that I’ve really been learning JS with TS after a decade of Python, and the TS community is pretty good

I’d like to see hooks in CRA but that’s apparently a CRA3.0 thing - far off in the future.

Haha of course. Probably a change I made earlier today. I’m at dinner now, but will update it in a couple hours.

Shameless plug: I just put `rbx` 1.0 together which has 100% coverage and fully implements the Bulma framework for React. Every component has a story, and it’s written in TypeScript (transpiled to JS). I hope to get around to releasing this

I was sorely disappointed with pipenv, and transitioned to poetry [1], with which I’ve been very satisfied. There is also some commentary in the README on the design decisions re: pipenv [3]. Contrary to the author's perspective on poe

I learned it in more than five minutes - over the last couple weeks - when I rewrote an open source UI Componenrt library in TS. What’s scary is the number of bugs in the original implementation! I made the comment on Reactuflux’s #typescri

As a follow-up, I think the humor is that I imagine this blog might have valuable information, but you’re turning off your target audience with low-brow ads.
