This is not equivalent. It will result in y if x is any falsy value (like false, empty string, or 0), not just if x is nullish.

If I'm misreading your comment and it's not actually a sarcastic summary of the article, I'm sorry. To me, this article doesn't sound like a rant by someone who profoundly hates process. Ignoring all their complaints abo

I don't know what the source of this convention is, but this is why I was taught that the version "1.2.3" should be read aloud as "one dot two dot three" instead of "one point two point three". The idea is

Huh. I see what you mean! It was based on when it showed up in my (supposedly only sorted by time) viewer, but yours definitely appears before the other if you go through the official “New” submissions list.

Since Rust supports macros, I think you can actually implement most of JSX's syntax in it directly without needing an additional compiler.

I’m all for adblockers, but why would you be allowed to advertise if you use one? Do you have some reasoning for why other people should potentially see your ad while you don’t see those of others? Does your adblocker whitelist some things?

For moving the pointer while the button is pressed, why not instead click and hold with one finger and drag around using another? I usually click with my thumb and drag using my index finger.

Same. Most of the devs I know personally were immediately convinced and loved the API. I assume the usual feedback bias is at play here. Folks who are into hooks probably talked to friends/coworkers excitedly about them, but have a lot

Being in a relationship doesn’t mean you have to pay attention to each other constantly. Some people read books/magazines/papers before sleeping, and some others do stuff on their phones.

Hi. I've been using VS Code for a bit now but I'm actually going back to Atom. I run into a lot more bugs with VS Code--or at least the (very few) plugins I'm using with it--than with Atom. For example When writing JSX, I&#x2

I'm unsure what's ironic about it. Hooks feel significantly easier to me than classes in a bunch of dimensions. Classes come with a whole lot of syntax & concepts like constructors, instance vs class properties, autobinding, t

I think it's best to treat the various hooks the same as method definitions: you wouldn't conditionally define componentDidUpdate or componentWillUnmount in a class component. Instead, you would conditionally do something within t

As the other reply points out, you can do things other than vote. Convincing like minded friends to get involved and convince their friends is very effective at the local scale. Local governments can improve—-or worsen—-life for their citiz

It’s certainly less upsetting, but I don’t think we should just try to avoid reading about the very real & very bad things that are happening when we have some power to address them.

It’s hard not to read your response as implying that no one should ever complain about anything unless it catches them off guard, or that no one should ever challenge the status quo.

I’m sure everyone is very aware of that. Awareness of it doesn’t make it any less obnoxious.

I don't know what to tell you. The sensationalism is there because it's a catastrophic problem that requires major action. There's consensus that a very bad thing is happening, its effects are already being felt, and they wil

And that shock can happen much further away from freezing than most people expect when they just hear the numbers out loud. 50 °F water is pretty much the same as 32 °F water as far as shock is concerned.
