Fair enough, I work in small teams and independently a lot. It does make sense you need some strict architecture / tooling to prevent it in a more distributed org. This is one of those things that gives me the feeling the true "10

Is it normal to have tens of CSS files impacting a component!? In my world, the component styles itself, and its parent can tell it how to be spaced / positioned and themed (via CSS variables preferably). Anything beyond that seems spa

Haha, sure, thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, I hate using the Apple TV remote, so I’ll stick to the classic UX on my roku remote

That's super interesting. Can you tell me this, no snark: how the hell do you fast forward or rewind on Apple TV?

In general maybe, but in this certain circumstance I felt it was clear. On a second read I hear your point though

I thought the same and bought an Apple TV. That thing sucks. Turns out, Roku is way better. With respect to "terrible built-in apps", Apple TV has plenty of those. Netflix, Twitch, sports apps, streaming apps, all way better and m

It truly doesn't make sense that regulators are not only allowing this, but allowing ridiculous overexaggerations in their monikers like Autopilot and Full Self Driving and shit. I guess that's not true, it makes perfect sense tha

So, you walk into job interviews with the feeling you have already earned the job? And that failing the interview is equivalent to being fired? Weak strawman aside, I don't know what your point is. You can reference external things in

Your argument, as best as I can tell, is that people are completely unimodal in how much stress they can handle, and therefore are completely determined in multiple dimensions such as "sensitivity", "intelligence", and &

Can you provide a source that 50+ % of the population find live-coding/collaboration interviews to be a high stress situation while the rest of the interview is not? I think you are conflating your personal feelings with objectivity un

Immer seems like it lets you take the same approach as mobx, but instead of rerendering based on an optimized run-time constructed dependency graph, Immer has to rebuild every single item "under" your mutation. Doesn't this s
