>weird hierarchical "junior/senior" dichotomy Will this ever end?
I used to think this, but sveltes templating language is trivial and keeps the problem space manageable for its maintainers.
Firefox is not as performant as Chrome is. This is something a web developer will have come across, if not an average user.
Oftentimes, people will say correlation does not imply causation, and this is mathematically true (imply means something different in regular parlance, and correlation can very well imply causation in that usage). That…
To be fair, young and healthy and Covid 19 vaccine tread the waters of “reasonableness” when combined. The risk profiles in either direction are so small it’s very hard to discern a meaningful pattern. It probably just…
That claim you’ve just made is completely inconsistent with evidence showing much higher side-effect rates for mRNA over traditional formulations. Moderna has something like an 80% incidence of fever after the second…
That’s a huge difference. Do you have a citation for this claim? I don’t doubt you, but, wow.
Building a non-trivial website in React with halfway decent design practices is 100000x easier than doing so in raw html/css/jQuery (for argument, the vanilla API back in the day was impossible to use).
That’s interesting. I’m guessing console.log appends to the window object somewhere, which is a fairly common method of image preloading.
Your body and mind are one. It is scientifically inaccurate to believe otherwise. This isn’t a pedantic point: the mind/body distinction is pseudoscience that used to be believed widely in scientific circles. This…
This brings up a fascinating point that spins off into another, entirely complex discussion: does Mozilla pay enough for a great (not good) CEO?
Firefox has, since incipience, faced that challenge. Anyhow, the point I’m making is that I don’t agree that it is impossible to compete with trenched competition. Firefox has some prior momentum themselves, they’re not…
Was the last CEO let go for performance reasons?
This would be a decent point if nobody had any interest in chromium alternatives and Firefox was a new upstart brand, neither of which are true. Usually, when a CEO heads an explicitly sinking ship, the CEO will be…
Unpopular opinion: Firefox is allowing itself to be phased out, and contributing to a less free internet, with their business moves. It was hugely upsetting when they axed their dev team mid-pandemic.
I should note that, on iOS, it seems that Safari with a content blocker outperforms the brave skin by a little, which outperforms the Firefox skin by a lot, which outperforms the chrome skin by a lot.
Yeah, we'd need more data. Because PD is such a low-incidence disease generally, any kind of uptick, even in the pre-60 cohort, would push the dial substantially. Are pre-60 cases, which I just found out trivially are…
Errr... I was more implying that ADD/ADHD medications are in very common usage, making it a notable data point. Perhaps I should have make that explicit.
I definitely don't agree with the comparison; I love TypeScript and find its utility easy to elucidate.
To me, it seems like a really bad sign if something that is supposed to solve a problem is “hard to explain”, almost like it doesn’t actually solve any problem and just ropes you in with familiarity. My assessment is…
There are measurable links between use of ADD/ADHD medication and Parkinson’s, which makes sense given that the former modulates dopamine and the latter has to do with dopamine modulation. I view this direct connection…
I still don’t get the tailwind hype. To me, I think the relevant parties are invested, myself included. CSS is weird and has had a lot of “answers” appended to it out of desperation, but I’ve been feeling really good…
If I may be so bold as to make your case for you, a huge pain point in the amazing software that is makecode arcade is that it pigeon holes you into TypeScript strict mode, which, while an amazing and flexible…
How mature is this? Can I use it to teach kids? How is it more desirable than makecode arcade? I’m right in the use-case for this and have tried many alternatives.
I don’t disagree with or dislike the article, but I feel the author could have included some examples of what he considers programming, and what he considers hard, as he listed quite extensively the things he doesn’t…
