Why does the stand cost $1350!? (or a mere $1200 during introductory pricing)

It's very important that JS devs be aware of the distinction there too - especially as Promises gain traction

A lot of Abramov's responses do refute the original points, but they also betray how much cognitive overhead is required to play in React's ecosystem. The guy used Redux, I'm sure, because he knew he needed to manage state so

They do allow things like pushing updated JS bundles to react native apps. My guess: RN constrains the surface area of the native API it comes into contact with (e.g. no performSelector, or similar)

I'm the complete opposite - I can't stand the flavor or texture of cooked tomatoes. Raw tomatoes are great, as are tomato based sauces

Both Closure and TypeScript support (some of) the JSDoc type annotations and syntax ( http://usejsdoc.org/ ). AFAICT, TypeScript supports a subset of what Closure does - so anything here should be portable between the two:

Ditto! And it's awesome to see all the cool things David's accomplished since his early MMOing days :P (I worked with him back in the day on Warcry) Sentry is a fantastic tool; use it every day.

Nexus 5's camera didn't even remotely compare to iPhones of that era Also, Android 4.x was an awful experience (that was the point I had jumped off the iOS train)

As an Android person (and someone who was a fervent iPhone user until the iPhone 6), I've definitely been waiting for a phone without all the usual Android carrier crapware, with a great camera, and not a phablet. Quite excited about t

Encrypted links between processes inside a data center is still a good thing: It protects against malicious actors sniffing traffic (without compromising the machines in the data center)

Google does not work like every other data center in the world. All internal services communicate over SSL (or similarly encrypted links)

The benefits of this sort of encryption & privacy infrastructure: * Protects you (user) from eavesdroppers between you and Google. * Protects your data from eavesdroppers inside Google's data centers. * Protects your data at rest (

If those extra bytes drop you from two packets to one, that's a _significant_ reduction in traffic (which, IIRC, was the original rationale behind that style guide rule)
