In my experience, $100b companies tend to be owners of things and not renters. Why would you pay multiple times for something when you were the ones who took the biggest risk in creating it?

I qualified the statement as the "worst of the 21st century". If you were to compile a list of worst decisions ever, I think most lawyers would say Dred Scott v Sanford, Plessy v Ferguson, Korematsu v United States, Bowers v Hardw

I knew someone would bring up Citizens United v FEC when I said worst. I know this will be an unpopular opinion on this forum, but I believe that case was decided correctly. I agree wholeheartedly with Justice Kennedy's opinion that &q

I've worked at a couple of places where I was the "git guy", aka the person who fixed your git repo when you borked it. I don't understand why so many people have difficulty with git. I get the API can be a bit wonky, bu

That's Matt Stoller, and I wouldn't want to confuse the two. Levine has a much stronger grip on reality.

The budget for the highway system is managed by the Highway Trust Fund. The trust fund had been solvent until 2008, but has since needed additional funding to meet outlays. Prior to that the system had been working as outlined in the Federa

Maybe if you're writing it ;) Most of the time it mirrors the structure of a file system which is the exact way (almost) every program is written. As with most software projects, keeping organized is like 80% of the battle.

Nah you can get reusability by creating shared components that you just pass props into. For example, you can have a date picker that just accepts variables to display the current state and parent component that reads data from the store an

I would go a step further and say that React Components should not manage their state internally. (this.state was a mistake to add to the project) You can create every single UI in the world using pure functional components. They are easier

by pg_bot 6y ago
I would argue that writing a React component with a hook is a mistake. There is usually an easier/clearer way to solve the problems that hooks are intended to solve with the existing React primitives.

The problem that I fear is that most of this work will go to waste since it is difficult to apply your own custom styles to the default experience for most input types. Instead of having to reinvent a date picker for every project I would l
