A fascinating part about Sorbet is it did not have to introduce any additional syntax to Ruby (unlike TypeScript, for example). This really speaks to the expressiveness of Ruby. Very cool.

Yes, and it's also not as severe or "a sign of being stupid" as many think. Cognitive dissonance occurs in situations as simple as walking to a store and discovering the store is closed.

Agreed. If Elixir had static typing then Phoenix would be my dream framework!

> I just cannot take a type system seriously when workarounds like that are needed. Are you familiar with type theory and how easy it is for a type system to require too much work to be useful? Especially with conditional types. TypeSc

What makes these ideas "micro"? They seem like normal SaaS to me.

What's wrong with working with plain arrays? Genuine question, they seem to work fine for me so far.

Mammoth https://github.com/Ff00ff/mammoth is also worth paying attention to. Still early, but a promising approach.

Lots of replies saying it "depends on your use case", but zeit's departure from v1 to v2 clearly shows they think serverless fits most use cases.

Context IS NOT the most important concept in React. It's basically CSS cascading. Not something you want to introduce into your project so easily.

CSS variables are actually superior to SASS variables because you can change them at runtime via JS.

Mithril.js has been doing plain javascript variables for years :) Basically, React's decision to use setState is an overoptimization. Mithril (and flutter, interestingly) opts for global redraws, greatly reduces end-user code complexit

Types are not just for autocompleting, but also for making illegal states unrepresentable[0]. For example, let's say you have Question model with two types: MultipleChoice and ShortAnswer. In TypeScript you can model it like this:

If that's the case, then document.querySelector works like a charm.

Prisma looks good and I hope it succeeds. Another interesting and unique approach I'd love to see get more attention is Mammoth[0]. Instead of abstracting the database away, you define columns using its raw primitives (in this case, Po

You also get nullable types with Java, which severely cripples the confidence static typing is supposed to give you.

What does the SSR story look like with pika/web? If I have code that has something like `import x from 'lib'`, can I make `lib` point to node-specific code on the server, and browser-specific code on the client?

Materials science is one of the most fascinating and underrated fields. There's so much to discover with the elements on the periodic table, and so many applications from those discoveries.

I find cypher to be a superior language to SQL. It expresses relationships more succinctly and intuitively, and has better support for aggregations.

Is this targeting the same space as Flutter? That's an enormous amount of work, and can't imagine it being done without a Google-scale level of resources (I'd be happy to be proven wrong, though!).
