I wonder how many people wrote in Kanye West. My wife and I did. Anyone else in the HN community do so?

I appreciate the article. I think your argument I find most dubious is the idea that we have lessened health care capacity by sheltering at place and closing businesses. Even if we have furloughed hospital workers, and I'm not saying t

That seems like a pretty good algorithm.

My feeling is the author seems pretty open to criticism. You should open a PR incorporating your reasoning into the document. Be respectful but make it better. I'd hope the best ideas would win out but then again the author has the aut

Glad to see this no longer appears to be flagged. I'm curious if anyone knows what HN's process is for unflagging an entry. How do they decide what remains flagged?

Not sure. All I know is I saw the article on the main page, navigated away and when I came back it was gone. I searched for the title and then found it but it was flagged. I was thinking of sharing on Facebook but I'd probably get bann

Why was this flagged? I don’t even necessarily agree with the author’s arguments and conclusion, and honestly I have no clue what to think with all the information I hear that is constantly changing from the various tribes. But when somethi

Yeah the stuff I was doing was more to see how crazy of things we could do with the type system. Like I said just fun. But probably a waste of time other than the learning. Just a warning that is tempting to do crazy (but stupid) things. On

Oh one other potential drawback. Typescripts inferred types, can do some crazy things, and can be very powerful. This to me is really fun, but has definitely caused me when I first started using it to get lost in having fun doing crazy thin

IMO, Yes (usually). Let me elaborate. If you are starting a new project, yes use typescript over JS. And configure it with all strict options. This doesn't magically give you well architected and well-tested code, it still takes a good

If his point is that you should dogmatically reduce long functions into a bunch of small functions, I think he is completely wrong. If his point is that when the clearest way to implement some functionality is with a single long function an

If you work on a Node backend with Javascript, Where does the idea of switching to Typescript fall into this discussion? Is it a boring technology, or a shiny new technology? It is still using the same tech in Node, which you already know t

I don't necessarily want something more technical, but for some reason I was anticipating that the reason given would've been more of a technical one, like "Firefox is way better with WASM" or something of that nature.

Is that even meant to be a secret?

I agree. I think it also has the potential to help motivate developers to write native UI rather than use electron. Currently if for your market, your primary target platform is the web, but other platforms are still important, going electr

I enjoyed his points. I've often thought of the meaningless of things, but I like how he called them rituals. “Vanity of vanities!” says the Teacher, “Vanity of vanities! All is vanity!” The above is a quote from Ecclesiastes, whic

I worked in R&D at Philips making ultrasounds. From my experience this is definitely what it is. The amount of people that were employed to simply test, do documentation, and verify safety alone was staggering, let alone all the smart p
