I would make the exact opposite argument in fact. I would argue it is entirely irrational to perpetuate this bizarre notion that living in a prosperous nation is some sort of original sin that must be atoned for by self-flagellation. Prospe

I'm afraid I don't understand what you're trying to insinuate here. Capitalism is part and parcel to disruptive services such as this one entering a space where established players have created price fixing opportunities for

I've had great success running kvm as a host and macOS as a client and passing through hardware to get good performance. That said, this is on a dual socket xeon board and not a NUC, so ymmv.

That's kind of what I'm saying. If you don't value those things, why introduce a library at all? What you're describing can be implemented in < 10 lines.

I guess I fail to see the value of this. If you don't want the component lifecycle, event system, or DOM diffing that React gives you, you might as well just write your own declarative wrapper around `document.createElement(...)` and b

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the production build of React strips out PropTypes as well doesn't it?

Maybe these people would rather be lied to by a con artist than to be made the punchline of every joke by every liberal blogger, pundit and late night host on a daily basis. This election taught us that one of the parties is peddling very d

> JavaScript - Dynamically typed, does not scale What does this even mean? I see the phrase "does not scale" bandied about all the time. In what way is a language supposed to scale? It seems like its just the latest semi-techni

I really hope that higher-kinded types can be brought to TypeScript. I really want that kind of power on the front-end, but I can't count on getting an entire team up to speed with PureScript.

You should checkout the ØMQ guide. They do such a good job of first defining the problem space, and then establishing the design patterns they use to solve it. The code examples almost become irrelevant because they make the patterns so cle

To be clear, I wasn't meaning that use of local state was an anti-pattern in itself. I only meant that dumping all of the state of a wrapper component into the child should be avoided. Ideally, the complexity of the data in the props o

This is awesome! Like you mentioned towards the end, I've been stewing on the idea of a React Native <-> React bridge for a while now too, but haven't had the time to thoroughly dig into the code of other custom renderers to

I often leave off tests for strictly "synchronous" actions like `return { ...currentState, newProp }`. Most of my tests are for confirming that the right paths are taken for actions that trigger one or more async operations to ens

In my experience, as long as you have a well tested data model and use proptypes/Flow/TypeScript, testing the components themselves becomes almost entirely irrelevant. However, I can see the utility of component testing if I were
