   This is a very good point! I'm trying become a better leader and reading this list was actually not motivating. I felt I had to be perfect all the time. I thought if I was this good I would start my own company instead of being a corpo

   I know exactly how they _can_ improve things but the engineering organization is not well run to do big infra-only projects like that.

   Lyft is horribly inefficient in terms of using their AWS resources. I know this first hand. They don't have to build their own DS. They just need to build a better system. Possibly take advantage of Lambdas because a lot of compute hea

    I used to think without DOM web assembly is uselsess then I saw how Figma made their UI super fast rendering to a canvas and was convinced that hopefully WS will be the reason DOM apis go out of fashion

    I blame the Linux Foundation that has allowed Node.js to ship with npm CLI which is a client for a _VC backed_ _for profit_ company. This posinstall stuff is clearly a bad design that many have pointed to it before but npm just ignored it.

    Sandboxed by default is the best design decision of deno. Using URLs for import is another one. npm as a company has too much power and responsibilities that is really unnecessary. We're downloading from a URL anyways. package.json and

    JS DOM API is a bridge to a native implementation. I wish we could use DOM directly in WS. Problem is DOM calls are blocking but removing the JS layer can help.

    Those libs add some "magic" which is going against the point of Redux (knowing exactly what's going on). Instead of those abstraction libs I like to use the observable pattern with Rx or MobX

    This is a really good write up and I love how they were cautious not to feed the ongoing fanboyism in for and against React Native folks. Say what you like but this is a very mature move from a young engineering organization.

    If you think about AV systems it's a bunch of input sensors and literally two output numbers (steering and acceleration). This makes a good candidate for a big black box deep learning system. Google tried end-to-end deep learning AV sy

    Just the way npm handled my bug reports made me decide never use npm cli again. The registry is something everyone has to use because npm has a monopoly. It's not open source and is making money for a for profit company. I'm very

    Eager Evaluation is pretty cool! It will help me discover APIs a lot easier. I have two questions about this: 1) what happens when evaluating is going to take a lot longer that usual? 2) why the arguments list hint is using Flow syntax for
