So you came here to recommend a framework you just found, looks exactly the same as hyperapp et al, and have no experience with, over others because of “virtual-dom advocacy”? Oh boy. > Languages don’t have any custom extensions. It’s ju

What part of “violation of human rights” or “concentration camps” or “disappearing business people” requires more critical thinking? Nazi Germany did amazing things in many fields (just skipped to the end here).

It happens every single time you plug something into a USB A port, I’m surprised you haven’t witnessed it. They are very often upside down, sideways, and the mechanic design gives you no feeling/feedback that it’s going in the right wa

How else do you propose a control group for an entire city, other than looking at other cities in the same region? Have you done research like this before?

FB seems to have a too-good ability to swindle entrepreneurs into believing they will keep their independence. Oculus suffered the same fate.

No, the one from Jena was a controlled study, and they tried to exclude any biases like neighboring cities. It’s “synthetic” because you can’t create two equal cities and population to test, unfortunately. Again, did you actually open and r
