That's all bullshit. React is open source and still own the design and all the development roadmap. I honestly think wolfram is an amazing technology but until it embraces the open-source community it'll stay a language that most

Replying to my own comment, but if I had to guess (on absolutely zero context and evidence :p), I would say he wants to focus on crypto/Square, and Twitter is more of a time sink. Twitter is in a good enough state at the moment that th

There's zero explanation in the email for why he resigned. He's re-iterating the point that the company is fine moving forward with the rest of the board, the new CEO and the existing team, but no actual reason as to why he left.

That's the point of the article though. SPA is /hard/. Using a normal many-page app, you get scrolling that works across all browser - even mobile - for free, without having to do anything. I'm not saying I necessarily a

No, this isn't it. What he did was basically build a production-ready webapp for his own personal blog. Was this overkill? Maybe. But when you're used to work in that kind of prod environment, you want to reproduce it when buildin

This is ridiculous that there's no good way to have a production ready environment without all this plumbing. Redwood comes close but still missing many things. On one hand, people underestimate the complexity of building production-re

Most companies hiring for Elixir devs will still hire you as long as you have experience in other languages. imho it's more important to show you have production experience, can ship and are willing to learn. If there's a company
