Hahahaha this got me. My sarcasm/satire detectors are clearly malfunctioning today...
You can also schedule code to run each "tick" of the event loop, which is a non-blocking version of a while loop. Or you could promisify the send function and use normal async/await. let q = Promise.resolve(), sendAsync…
JS has an event loop, it's single threaded but still lets you write asynchronous code. let send = (payload, callback) => fetch(...).then(callback) fetch() returns a promise synchronously, but it's not awaited.
Fascinating article. It's think the author's experiences are fairly context-dependant, with where you live, the political leanings of your social circle, your online community etc. But I have noticed an increase in the…
I find it really fulfilling to meet strangers but I need to be in the right headspace and it needs to be the right atmosphere. "Every person you look at, you can see the universe in their eyes -- if you're really…
Yeah fair enough :)
I'm introverted and I enjoy networking and group activities and also meeting and chatting with strangers. I just can't do it all day every day, I need breaks. Having social anxiety is different from not knowing how to…
I really should read Jung. So much wisdom in that.
I mean push the devs towards writing native swiftui.
I suppose it's only the bad ones that I notice, but I can definitely get annoyed by UI that's janky, choppy, or close-but-not-quite native. It's jarring.
I agree with you but I think at a certain point with large teams, the marginal benefit of hiring n+1 becomes negligible and then dips negative. I've never worked for a company with thousands of devs but I imagine at a…
I don't think it's that hard for someone with experience writing shaders to emulate. The moat is that it's almost impossible to replicate with browser technology, which hurts web-based ui systems and is still a big…
I clicked on this fully expecting it to be about the video game...
I'm sorry but what you are describing is not what a zero sum game is.
Yeah I agree. I think it's the same way as fashion - it's often not new styles, just new takes on the past. But it keeps things fresh and interesting.
Inequality is possible in a non-zero-sum game. It's just as possible to have an inequal non-zero-sum game as it is to have an equal zero-sum game. Capitalism isn't zero sum because at its core principle are…
Nothing of what you said has anything to do with the concept of "zero sum". It has to do with if the resources in a system are fixed or if they are changing.
UI change is similar to fashion. Things can't remain stagnant, they must change.
I have a feeling this will be yet another case of the nerds thinking something is a huge deal and when people update their phones this fall I bet most people won't care after 10 minutes.
What the article describes is pretty sensationalized and full of bias. Obviously there is plenty of room for it to go wrong but I don't think it's automatically the case that somehow paradoxically, giving the government…
That isn't even close to being the same thing.
What an incredibly bad faith response to someone simply expressing their desire to see an idea experimentally validated. That's really the only way we can know if a political system is viable. Eg. both communism and…
I sorta want to see them happen as an experiment.
They aren't piggybacking, they provide the infrastructure, marketplace, and platform.
Depends on the contract between the grocery store and the construction company.
