I was at Yahoo when they did a big email redesign, and the new design didn't work for 1/2 their users. Digging deeper, they found that email users kinda fall into 2 camps: filers and pilers. Filers carefully organize…
Took some effort to refine a websearch: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2158516/delay-before-o-o...
I don't know about "hero" use cases, but I use actors (state machine responding to events in a queue) quite a bit when making hobby Arduino devices. It allows me to have a "button" device that can work with both the…
I think it was their thread/process scheduler. It had a section of priorities which got hard realtime scheduling, then lower priority stuff got more "traditional" scheduling. (Alas, I don't know too much about…
I'm in the middle of building a 1000sf home with some friends. It'll probably be about 80k for the house (including various permits). We hired contactors for: plans (including engineering calcs), concrete slab finishing…
You'll probably need to research what the particle size(s) is(are) for cigarette smoke, but this detects a bunch of different sizes: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/15103 I have some code to read from this, it's not…
Depends on what you mean by "very low consumption". For one project I used a SparkFun SAMD21 Mini Breakout[0], and with the RTCZero[1] library was pretty easily able to get it down to 0.3mA when sleeping and averaging…
Good points, I pretty much agree with everything you said. "NoDamnGoodForUs" is a little strong, more like "AlmostButThisOneUseCaseNeedsALittleMore" :) Interestingly, that embedded device I made wound up being MVC…
In the article the author states: From this, we get that accounts should certainly behave like state machines. And from that, it’s reasonable that other pieces of code ought to be able to dynamically inspect an…
As someone who works at a large company, $10k is in no way "a drop in the bucket". Sales teams might have a budget to wine-and-dine clients, but as a developer I have pretty much zero budget and every expense has to be…
I see it more in storytelling terms: the existing hell, the seed of hope, the promised land, the hero's path, the hero made real. It's not so much about the consistency of the storyline itself but instead the emotions…
There are a few NPM libraries (make-plural, cldr, probably others) which will help you write those pluralization functions. The CLDR data does get updated from time to time, so it's nice to rely on another package to…
Yeah, for a simple plural that can be a bit longer. In other languages, though, the pluralization rules get rather complicated[1]. (For example, Arabic has both complicated pluralization rules -and- a lot of people who…
Hmmm... after very quickly looking at Globalize, I'd say there are two things about formatjs.io that I see as main differences: * Integrations with Handlebars, Dust, and React hopefully make formatjs.io easy to use…
