The only difference is that you personally believe the evidence to be less strong than others… there’s no fundamental difference, just difference of opinion. If a socialist candidate is assassinated in South America and someone on YouTube s

Not shocking for the managers, just sad. Shocking that executives don’t get it so consistently.

It’s shocking to me how people sell out like this. You have to know deep down that all these hostile short term juicers destroy the brand, each malfeasance creating more room for a competitor. I mean you guys replaced Digg, cmon. The audaci

There weren’t clouds, and i could make out a body as the light was attached to it. Plus we tracked it far into the distance as it moved steadily at a consistent height. If I had any doubt it could be a laser pointer I’d have noted it, but i

It was high enough, maybe 60-100ft that it could have been quiet and we just didn’t hear. It was off to the left a little as well. I say drone only because it seemed about that size, didn’t see it beyond the general shape and darker color u

I moved to Tucson temporarily during the pandemic. One night walking to get groceries my girlfriend and I saw a very low flying drone with a single green light underneath. It was moving far faster than I’d ever seen a drone, very low over o

When 40 some percent of your price is customer acquisition I don't buy the price being competitive. Health I can see has some room for quality, but still some high 90% of the market doesn't go outside the bottom three plans across

It just strikes me as an intensely bad equilibrium where the best priced insurance should be the one that advertises least, yet insurance is the most heavily advertised industry. It makes sense why, it’s basically entirely 0 sum. There’s no

I wrote SnackUI[0] to solve this exact problem. It gives you in my opinion a nicer style syntax (flat style props on the component) while avoiding the downsides of CSS-in-JS by extracting everything but the most dynamic parts to pure CSS. T

I have no ties, other than owning a few of their devices. I think you should up your prior that there exist people who generally think this is ok. I think about 0 out of the first 100 people I know that I think of have heard any version of

Disagree, they seem very reasonable. But also no one is reading those terms really, they aren’t being pushed in ads or shown at the store.

I don’t think any one of my less technical friends has any belief that the App Store is infallible or even mostly secure. Apple doesn’t advertise it much, and if they did I’d be happy to call that a mistake.

Punishing companies for adding protections to their products is an insanely backwards incentive. May as well turn off sandboxing, and lock screens. If they ever break, it’d be a liability!

Yes and likewise, car manufacturers should remove seatbelts and airbags. They simply encourage reckless driving, and by giving the false sense of security / assuming the gatekeeper role, they should be liable for any accident.

There’s no reason all of this isn’t supported as well if not better in GQless than any other client. You can hoist the query logic if you need to ensure it stays static for some reason. I’ve built a very large app with this and am perfectly

It generates types via CLI statically up front, all queries are then fully typed, only the final request is generated at runtime which means you never fetch anything except what you need.

It does autocomplete with types on that line, and yes, it’s really that cool. Disclosure: I funded the development of version 2, and have written a large app using it. I am very happy with it, and believe it’s the best data fetching solutio

There’s a different hook you can use that returns an error state.

The argument of traditional stock being worthless isn’t just that they could dilute, which they could in any number of ways, but they could end sharing anytime, change the % share, or do any number of the squeezes for-profit VC companies en

Crypto gives the ability for the community to actually control and be confident they won’t get slowly squeezed out, because you can actually codify control. So no, you can’t do that with a traditional company. And I’m somewhat sure it’s not

by nwienert 5y ago
This is willfully ignorant and motivated reasoning. Crypto has more uses than I care to even list, in fact it’s quite easy to come up with many of them, but it’s weird that people who’ve set in their ideology against it won’t ever budge. In

I want to throw out something I had thought about while deep (deep) into fixing a broken server yesterday and having had a few thousand tabs opened over the course of 24 hours searching for every possible Linux command under the sun. Here’s

Does anyone make anything that just takes your docker compose file and run it really easily with a lot more features? I’m happy with compose. It works. I know swarm was supposed to solve this but is dead now (?).

React native has Hermes, it’s own JavaScript engine. The key is it’s not a JIT though. It actually performs better in many facets than JSC which is impressive. So you can run your own side process, and it can be its own JS engine. Also, I’l

You’re conflating concurrency and parallelism. Unless you’re explicitly forking the process, the async all happens in one process. Async is incredibly easy to manage in node, even the simplest linter handles telling you you’re forgetting to

He seems to be saying people have told him as much, or he's heard as much. It’s not like he’s stating it strongly either, I think mostly he’s just making conversation. To even bring the word delusion is delusional.

A bird not flying outside it’s habitat is not delusion. Likewise any animal. Just because there’s this modern idea that you need to travel and sample (trample on) everything, doesn’t make it more rational. Will going to Mars do anything for
