Elizabeth Warren has made calls to _BREAK UP_ big banks and pharma companies for her entire career. She has literally used those exact words SEVERAL TIMES idk what to tell you. She is not targeting those industries with anti trust legislati

Suddenly the goalposts have shifted from Warren unfairly targeting tech companies to Warren unfairly targeting tech companies with anti trust lawsuits

Do you think the most correct answer is the same as the loudest one? And besides, you can use Facebook and still believe it should be broken up, those aren’t mutually exclusive things.

Be the change you wish to see, don’t cherry pick a single article specifically about tech, here’s just a couple about Warrens plans to break up both banks and pharmaceutical companies: https://www.usnews.com/news/articl

Why is this comment downvoted? I’ve only been on HN for a few weeks but I’m constantly get downvoted when trying to act in good faith and engage in discussions. What am I doing wrong? It’s becoming frustrating, since none of these downvoter

Yeah I made some incorrect assumptions about the nature of parcel, foolish mistake on my part. For your other question it depends on your library. If you’re only targeting ESM or CJS sure, if you need a UMD or want separate outputs for sepa

Yeah I actually didn’t realize parcel had so many dependencies. I choose it over webpack not for speed but because it’s highly opinionated and requires essentially zero config. So I guess I’ll change my suggestion and say just use rollup

This natgeo article seems to disagree with you, claiming that higher upper ocean temps allowed Dorian to maintain a greater intensity than it would have otherwise while stalled over the Bahamas. Higher temps also contributed to Dorians over

I recommend rollup for libraries and parcel for web apps.

In this context I read “complete freedom” as “use without restriction”, and that doesn’t seem to be the case with less permissive licenses. Not sure I completely understand what your comment implies but I’d love to better understand what yo

The main draw is that Svelte apps have no dependencies at runtime, instead it compiles a pure vanilla js bundle that relies on existing web APIs to do updates. This is attractive to a lot of people, me included, but imo Svelte isn’t quite p

Like I said, “almost” always. Really the larger the application and the longer time you as a dev will work with it, the more meaningful it becomes to write your own solutions. It’s really a balance, but I don’t think it’s a balance most dev

They’re also tailoring their solution to be as generic as possible. Having written OSS and also having written enterprise applications, it seems plainly obvious to me why a homegrown solution is preferred. Code developed internally is under

by rmilejczz 7y ago
This is a terrible reply, what are you even trying to say? You can’t stack overflow a problem so don’t write your own in-house solutions? Lack of testing? We write our own tests. We write our own documentation. It’s crazy to me how many peo

In the absence of evidence of the extraordinary, it seems most prudent to fall back to the ordinary in the vein of Occam’s razor. If you see a bright flash and then a tree catches fire, do you assume it’s lightning or a deep state conspirac

by rmilejczz 7y ago
As I’ve said to others, yes I understand the “well technically” explanation of deep state but I’d posit that you’re still not particularly mentally fit if you’re declaring war on such a poorly conceived adversary. How do you go to war with

by rmilejczz 7y ago
Right, I get that “technically” there is a deep state it’s not some strange esoteric knowledge. That really doesn’t make it any more sane to plan a war against a poorly defined adversary, this is a hall mark of delusion. I don’t see why my

So what does it mean to “know how threads work”? Do I really need a CS degree to use Go routines or redux sagas? Tbh I wonder constantly if I should get a CS degree. I’ve been working for 4.5 years now and while I feel competent it’s hard t

I work on a team and management sees our interfaces before our employees do so I hardly think this is a fair responses. Tech I build is used by everyone at my company every single day, thanks. Is this kind of personal attack the norm for yo

I agree with this sentiment entirely, and I do think it’s our responsibility as software engineers to make accessible interfaces (if you work in a field where that is a concern). I don’t necessarily have a problem with mgmt and what they re

A lot of the time you’ll end up with an implementation for each discrete possibility, but that’s pretty crappy especially if you have more than 3 or 4 discrete types you need logic for (though not always bad, some go libs follow this patter
