What RN will never overcome is being an unstable wrapper around unstable native UI toolkits. Pretty much everyone who used RN complains about bugs, and this is the reason.

This is random, but a lot of these parts exist because of the way it is constructed. I wonder how minimal this kind of watch could be if you had a unrealistically accurate 3d printer and the design was essentially optimal (done by machine l

Declarative UI works amazingly well when done properly (see Flutter). But Apple has a tendency to half-ass development tools, so it is what it is.

Thoughts and prayers to the Go team. I suspect they got kinda forced into implementing this, otherwise generics would be available from the start.

My point is that nobody is doing research on effective weight loss, so it's not surprising that doctors can't deal with it. Giving a diet plan for weight loss is basically an equivalent of giving an exercise plan for depression.

I am someone who lost 10% and kept it. If there are no studies on people like me, then no wonder why doctors are so bad at treating obesity.

The amount of compiler magic used by SwiftUI is staggering. By itself it's not a deal breaker, but closed source makes it almost impossible to understand what is going on.

I like Inscape but I wish they added GPU acceleration, at least for moving things. It's unbearably slow on macOS.

UI code absolutely requires fast compile times, ideally hot reload, but it wouldn't hurt to have a compiler that compiles code on background and executes unit tests for it.

Most likely terrible. You need to gather electricity in one place, send it to the farm, emit some light, plant will absorb 5% of that light, and then 5% of that 5% will end up in the final product.
