My learning process is pretty much the same; that's interesting. I definitely can't learn from books. That's a good tip; I might steal that in the future. Thanks again.

This is super cool! As a former Swift dev who is now learning React as well, can you talk a little bit about your process? Your site looks super polished and I'm curious about how you went about learning React, designing the site, etc.

From the email patching system. It's a tried-and-true model, but it tends to be unfriendly to new contributors.

Hopefully that will start to change with Firefox Quantum, which in my brief experience has been fantastic.

I'll try that. Thanks for the tip!

That's absolutely why. Every time I try to just use the "Install macOS $VERSION" app, my new installation seems slow and buggy, and I swear some of my files disappear. But if I backup everything and then wipe the drive, thing

Every year I ponder getting a new laptop to replace my mid-2012 MacBook Pro. Every year I don't. Instead I wipe the hard drive, reinstall the OS, and I have a brand new machine. Even the battery is still going strong 5.5 years into own

I also have a Series 3. What app do you use to track sleep? I'm using AutoSleep, but it seems to really overestimate the time I'm actually asleep, and as far as I can tell it doesn't take into account tossing/turning dur

Out of curiosity, what do you use the decompiled tokens/endpoints for?

Is there an available history of Twitter's APIs over the years? IIRC it was initially open, and then they locked it down so many 3rd party apps for Twitter had to shut down, and now they're sort of opening it up again? What's

I'm still clinging to iOS 10 on my plain 6. It sounds like you'd recommend I don't update; is that true?

Do you mind elaborating? What specifically was so disappointing? When did you guys visit? Has anything changed since then?

I believe Venmo is squarely in the market of peer-to-peer money. IIRC I don't believe they have any business offerings. Square, meanwhile, is offering both business and peer-to-peer options. It might be a generational thing, but it doe

Do you have sources for this? That's a pretty big accusation.

Interesting anecdote. What did you end up doing? Did you just leave it as-was?

Likely because you're less focused/more susceptible to the quick reward and novelty that these sites provide. I've noticed when I sleep better I can better focus on long-form entertainment (reading a novel vs. browsing HN, fo

What would you consider good implementations of either?

You're correct. Hiro lives in a U-Stor-It by the LAX airport.

I've never used React Native, but I've had negative experiences with Xamarin at my current company. It's buggy as heck and the development experience isn't great. Most teams are committing to native development after try

Does anybody who works in the industry have any idea of what the risk management is like for these types of events? What are the odds something could go wrong compared to the relative good of squeezing in one last flight's revenue for

Are you seriously suggesting that the decline of the acceptance of rape or the increasing awareness of discrimination against women in America is causing men to use opioids?

Perhaps they're working to help recruiting. It might be easier to attract top talent in a different area (for example, if they situated in Pittsburgh as another commenter mentioned, they could more easily recruit CMU grads/profess

Right. The mention of the Apple Watch was a little disingenuous. The sign-stealing could have just as easily been performed with any number of smart watches or even just a cell phone.

Holy smokes I had no idea about that story. Thanks for getting me started down a rabbit hole of the lore around Google's origin.

I think you mean unfettered, rather than unfethered, which I don't believe is a word. I'm sorry to be that person.

That's what I thought as well, but I repeatedly find myself blocking the same elements on Medium. Maybe there's some element of randomization in the ids of the offending elements, or else I'm using the extension wrong and onl

I can't figure out if it's just poor implementation or just terrible UX design, but every time I scroll on that site a sign-up dialog pops up. I can click out of it, but when I scroll again, it immediately pops up. I'm unable

Your assertion about getting to Mars with less propellant is super interesting. Can you provide a source for me?

uBlock Origin definitely does. I thought there might have been a downside to using multiple adblockers...is that not the case?
