Once everything is setup and builds are working, it's pretty great. Being able to write react components in a mobile app is quite the productivity booster. However, the infra surrounding getting that to work is quite the burden and on

That's right. Not to mention the transaction fees are so high that moving from a wallet you own to an exchange can cost non-insignificant amount of money. Add on top of that the general volatility of crypto, people not wanting to deal

Thanks for the info, didn't know that about Plex. A couple of a hours does not work with my workflow. I get a movie, add it to my media folder, and then I want to watch it, so I'm not surprised I missed it.

The same argument can be made for government intervention. I don’t buy it, there are a ton of examples where not only does the gov get it wrong but also have the opposite effect of what they were trying to achieve. Good intentions is not re

Hmm, I’m not sure about your conclusion. I would rather see people be more scrutinizing when giving their money to others. It doesn’t matter if there are rules and regulations, people are always going to be duped. When I read about FTX I ju

Hey thanks for the thoughtful response. I agree with everything you mentioned here. I'd love to continue to chat with you about how to make testing sagas better. If you'd like, it would be great if we could move this convo to ht

I totally agree with you, Next has introduced some innovative ideas and created a framework on top of react that rivals the quality of the react codebase itself. However, this is the foot in the door that creates incentives that prioritizes

Vercel and the VC money they generated is probably one of the worst things to happen to FE OSS. I avoid next like the plague. To make matters worse, now the react and next teams are actively colluding with each other, effectively allowing v

That sounds nice but it’s not that simple. In the case of react you are doing both. You are importing functions like hooks and render. Then you pass render a function that then gets called by react.

I have some takes on this topic. The reason why I think we find consciousness so mysterious is because we are so intimately biased that we are blinded by what’s plainly understandable. Consciousness is an emergent property of nervous system
