I've started using smaller (ish) YouTubers instead of reddit when it comes to finding best in class products. For example, this channel is phenomenal: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2rzsm1Qi6N1X-wuOg_p0Ng

That does seem heavy handed. But think of it this way - how would you feel if your elementary schooler's teacher had a prominent copy of "Mein Kampf" in their classroom and told any kids who enquired about it to read it when

There's a difference between banning things (including books) for use in schools and the federal government declaring certain books illegal. We are dealing mostly with the former here. California doesn't want its schools reading H

You would just do: const response = await fetch(...) Bam, now you have the response without needing callbacks.

by umvi 3y ago
Async await fetch lets you flatten your nested callback functions into simple procedural programming. It makes everything much easier to reason about, no more closures and such.

I know this will probably sound extremely arrogant but... at least we actually do try to bring democracy when we invade other countries, unlike, say, Russia + Ukraine or China + Hong Kong/Taiwan. IMO, Afghanistan had a pretty great gif

That's true, I haven't counted all the times the mechanic or doctor did their job well. I just tend to remember the times where they didn't do their job well. For example, my daughter had a rash, the doctor says to just put m

True or false: An above average software developer that is good at debugging probably really is better at troubleshooting mechanical or medical problems than an average or below average mechanic or doctor? So then the problem may be that av

Debugging skills learned from software development are highly applicable for troubleshooting mechanical (car) and even medical problems so it's hard to take professionals in other fields seriously when they lack the same debugging abil

In your case then perhaps a cash infusion is what is needed to help. Based on my observations of poverty in the Washington DC/Baltimore regions though, in my opinion cash infusions alone would not be the most effective option for comba

by umvi 3y ago
I disagree. When I look at chronic poverty, a very common, almost guaranteed symptom is lack of skills/education (dropped out of high school, etc). I'm not saying there aren't highly skilled poor people (i.e. starving artists

by umvi 3y ago
Cash and services just helps the symptoms though. Addressing the root cause involves educating the poor somehow so that they have the skills to be more financially self reliant and the ability to avoid traps (lottery, debt, etc). Being poor

"metadata" is data that describes other data. I would guess a "metarepo" is a repo that contains other repos. Why would you want this? It's an alternative to monorepos or hacky homegrown solutions for managing relat

I imagine it's sort of like how if you pour a bunch of liquids together (oil, water, etc), even if you blend them up (ignoring emulsification) they will naturally separate into layers based on density, buoyancy, or some other property

Yes, computers are good at storing data. But there's a big difference between information stored in a database and information stored in a neural network. The former is well defined, the latter is a giant list of numbers - literally a
