I've found reliable persistence on the backend irritating with yjs. Seems like the official path is to fork their example library and edit it. (The example is insufficient because, for example, it will silently eat data if the onchange

No, it's the same category, but the specific values makes all the difference. The logic depends on the probability of error, the predictability of error, and the social acceptability of error. By analogy it's socially more accepta

Endemic diseases are defined as diseases with relatively stable case numbers confined to a localized area. This obviously doesn't apply: COVID is not confined to a localized area. Per the WHO[1] and the CDC[2] COVID is still a pandemic

I put the second puzzle into ChatGPT. It makes an extremely stupid mistake but gets lucky. GPT gets JavaScript numerical semantics utterly wrong but the only non-integer operation is a red herring: "the result [of 14/3] is approxi

I hate that feature. I don't think it's possible to usefully solve clickbait with a trivial algorithm. HN already has robust tools for using human judgement to fix issues.

It's worth noting that if you go to a doctor's office and get some treatment some of the evidence behind that treatment will probably overlap with the replication crisis. I don't know of any commonly accepted definition for t

Point one seems to be an API naming issue. I would not anticipate getFeatureFlag to increment a hit counter. Seems like it should be called something like participateInFlagTest or whatever. Or maybe it should take a (key, arbitraryId) inste

Not necessarily. It depends on what you need. For example suppose you were implementing an news reader with two panes. Left pane is a list of titles and previews, right pane is a full article for the selected item in the left pane. You can
