I am not sure I understand your confusion but here's a few pointers in no particular order: - the argument passed to useState is initial state, not "forever state". It will seed prevItems for the first render. But later when

You could argue investing in Coinbase had lower risk than investing in Bitcoin directly (was it?). Then the risk adjusted return would be even better.

One way I try to combat that is by forcing myself to do things the simplest way (unless I am aware I'm making a technical decision I can't change later). Then I try to add more complex bits when necessary. As a bonus you learn the

> At least the first two of them are type wrappers for strings - opaque to the type checker, but transparent to the runtime. Rust and Haskell have wrappers like this. Typescript does not. You are right that TypeScript aliases don't

I don't disagree overall but I'm using SQLAlchemy (Python) on a daily basis and it works quite well. I agree that if you are building ORM with the intention of hiding so many SQL details that the developers don't need to lear

Is that going to help against checking with the Internet Archive? I've used the Internet Archive to read versions of reddit comments when they were deleted (but not to dox people).

Agreed, it's not a problem of theoretical possibility. It's just that the maintainers' time can be better spent improving Python 3 than maintaining a Python 2 compatible runtime.

I wonder if all reports of poor battery life are from users of MBP with touch bar. It is interesting that the non-touch bar MBP has a ~10% bigger battery, half the TDP under sustained load and doesn't need to drive the ARM processor +

Does that mean that for small personal projects, it is acceptable to include jQuery 2 and Bootstrap everywhere, even if custom JS and CSS are a total of 100 lines of code? AJAX using jQuery is so convenient. I would rather not write these i
