There are ~10 million arrests per year in the US. That google doc includes non-US cases as well (but is also limited by what’s caught on camera). Still, 0.0007% of arrests leading to a case like this doesn’t seem as horrible as the raw tota

Seems common here that many interesting discussions are also controversial and therefore result in a lot of downvotes. It’s a pain to read downvoted comments because of the low contrast despite them sometimes being insightful yet unpopular.

Yes. From that linked website, among cases that had an outcome (recovered/died), deaths in April were around 20%. Today, around 10%.

It’s difficult to calculate an exact death rate. For one, there’s limited testing. Without being able to test the entire population, a whole range of biases can skew the rate dramatically. The large number of asymptomatic cases that never g

It’s not about race—it’s about a shitty corporate culture. Within Intel there are full-time employees (blue badges) and contractors (green badges). Intel has shifted towards hiring more green badges while paying them less, offering them few

Off the top of my head, things I use most beyond L/R split include: 1. Workspaces. Not at all unique to i3 but I’ve kept mine themed and automatically load certain apps into the same workspaces—all things i3 makes easy to do. 2. Floati

Really great idea! Just a small note though your pricing page doesn’t work on a mobile device. It just renders a bunch of checkmarks without context

Based on the language in the video, especially in the few extra seconds from the one you linked, it does seem like they were asked to clear the area that they were in. It is impossible to know for sure without the minute or so of footage th

All these weird prices ending in 7–Is that something you arrived at by A/B testing or something else? Just from first impressions seeing $397 made me notice the prices much more than, say, $399 or $400.

The answer is usually to use SVG. You see this in most maps and charts with clickable or interactive areas. For cases where you need a raster image to have clickable regions, like showing plots of land or property boundaries on a real estat

Yes. One of the costs of having a low barrier to entry for publishing is that the quality is generally lower. NPM still hosts tons of very well written code, but you have to sift through quite a lot of noise to find it.

I like it. If it’s intentional and kind of cheeky the way I interpreted it then I see no issue. It’s funnier and less bland than some strictly technical alternative. If it’s just an innocent call to action and just coincidentally happened t

The parsing cost for 100+ kB of JavaScript is not negligible. Sure maybe the transfer over the network is comparable to an image file, but you can’t stop measuring there. And to claim “Lightweight” on the homepage for something that should

Apparently there’s an app you can install (if you are running Windows) through the Microsoft store that demos each component. Why wouldn’t they just throw up some screen shots? Beats me.

That’s a good point. There’s something in the difference between the two communities then, where React’s tends to be encouraging of memoized components and shouldComponentUpdate while mithril’s tends to advise against those methods. The blo

React is far greater than 2x as slow on some metrics, like boot time, but the newer versions actually aren’t as bad as the pre-fiber versions that those benchmarks are based on for DOM updates. For boot up time React is still about 5x worse

Most web developers should be more concerned with performance than they are. In the wild, on a fairly recent MacBook Pro, I frequently run into sites where I deal with 100ms+ input lag. And every time I check, it’s always React (sometimes A

So true. This reminds me of one of my favorite tidbits from another vdom framework’s documentation, in which using the equivalent of shouldComponentUpdate is generally considered to be an antipattern. Whereas in React, it seems idiomatic to
