It is also very choppy on my iPhone 16, not sure why. Edit - I tried watching the demo, and it seems that on my phone the site is not usable, I can’t play the video, clicking on play does nothing and the page keeps scrolling and jumping

If you liked this you should watch the animated series Scavengers Reign. It’s about astronauts crash landing in an alien planet, where the flora and fauna have a symbiotic relationship, and what happens when humans appear. Fantastic show.

Wasn’t much to it actually. I was working in a team trying to create hp’s first SAAS offering for workflow management. I was the “webmaster” specialist at that time, and hearing the news that HP bought palmOS which was based on JavaScript m

I was working at HP during that time. They sent a company wide email asking people to develop applications for the OS, and receive a Palm Pre for free. I created an app that simply turns off the screen, and called it a mirror app (because y

That’s fine for small projects or startups. Once you go into large organizations, where you have an ever changing glossary, and product wants to be in control of the texts in the application, doing it all in prompts and dev changes complete

I thought this was awesome until you included an LLM into the mix. I hate the current react i18n solutions, and the fact that they only work in runtime, as opposed to Angular’s build time i18n solution. If your compiler could plugin to exis

It is a business opportunity, NX is offering it. In my previous startup, I started developing from the get go with NX, it became a huge velocity boost to our team. With 15 person RND we had standards that a 100 person RND didn’t accomplish.

It may be confusing, but everything here is static param. The —- prefix is css variables, where inside a css declaration block you write: —bg: blue

by halflife 1y ago
It’s less about replacing blue with yellow, which means overhauling design. My example was when your style system includes several color spectrums - primary, secondary, accent, grey, dark, light. Your components are styled using these spec

Configuration. Inline styles are direct style Implementations in your html, tailwind is an abstraction that lets your configure and refactor easily. I can say from experience, being in charge of developing a large product that was bought an

lol gotcha. Thanks for the time!

Ok I probably need to read deeper into server components and look at specific implementation. Your saying that the same component, in the client makes sure that you have a live session (a la JWT in local storage), but in the backend checks

by halflife 2y ago
Oh okay, example 1 makes it much more clear. Angular solves it very differently, fetching the data for the component, and the code to render it in parallel using @defer syntax. The client still renders it, but only on demand

Sorry, having trouble understanding the nuance of the auth example (FYI in react I have experience only in small scale projects). What’s the difference in classic client components having a root component validation auth?

Thanks for the explanation, I understand that wasn’t the point of the article, I’m one step before trying to understand the motivation behind server components :) Obviously the technology is impressive, basically serializing code over the n

@danabramov, would love to hear your stance on that

That may be fine for static rendering libraries, but chart libraries for example would have to be pushed to the client as well. So it seems to me that the benefits are so small and network speeds today are so fast, that switching your entir

This is very long, I’ve skimmed over the article. In the end, what I’m trying to understand, is what server components solve? Faster performance? Serving compiled app html on refresh? Why is it so much better than the old school hydration?

People working in cloud environments or cybersecurity absolutely have heard of Wiz. Working in a company adjacent to Wiz, I’ve encountered many organizations working with it. Don’t project your lack of knowledge onto others.

I’m sorry, but we have a lot of data. We just implemented the right procedures to consume it

The DB is rarely our bottleneck. Our reads are very simple, mostly paged sets from a table with a 1 level join. When we need complex abstractions or transformations, instead of using function or views, we listen to table changes, and with

100% completely agree. You just can’t scale SQL code. If you have a small app, then sure. But then I don’t know why you’d invest so much in testing. But if you need to scale your code to more than 3 people, SQL should only be your persisten

So you agree that Arab citizens in Israel have the same right as Jewish citizens? And your only grievance is regarding which non citizen can get citizenship?
264.
by halflife 2y ago
How is the right of return has anything to do with Arabs IN Israel? The right of return is only for immigration rights, which is relevant only for non citizens. And every other example is anecdotal, and does not signify less rights for Arab

Was Gaza bombed at the 6th of oct? Or before that?
266.
by halflife 2y ago
Damn if you do damned if you don’t. Israel approved money from Qatar to flow into Gaza as a goodwill, trust establishing gesture, and as part of previous ceasefire agreements. It was supposedly used to pay salaries for the Gaza government.

No matter how motivated they are, without weapon and training they pose much less risk than an army

The difference being that the new manpower has zero experience, is mostly kids and has no leadership. They reverted from a terrorist army, to an unorganized guerilla

The last ceasefire and hostage exchange was broken by Hamas when they didn’t want to return the hostage that was agreed on by the ceasefire agreement

The entirety of Hamas leadership is gone, Hamas will most likely not going to have control in Gaza (still being debated which mechanism will govern, this is part of the deal), the crossing to Egypt will be handled by foreign countries which
