Is there any other Router library for React which has a stable API ? We are most likely to include a router library in our application soon and we don't want something which changes frequently.
The entire dialog is becoming very tiresome, especially since it seems play out almost entirely on the Internet, where you can't even tell sarcasm half the time.

On the one hand, you have decades of women and other minorities having to brush off a bunch of stupid comments or risk losing their jobs, and they're just tired of having to put up with that BS anymore. And they're right to feel that way.

On the other hand, if everything becomes political, then that's completely stifling in a free society. Taken to the extreme, it could be less free than Soviet Russia since, at least there, you know who was enforcing that nonsense and had some kind of hope of navigating it. The enforcers here are self appointed, at times faceless, and have different people taking turns deciding what the outrage of the week is.

The problem is mostly that our society is trying to move away from the old social hierarchy, which was exclusive and hurt alot of good people, but we haven't figured out what we're replacing it with.

> On March 10, 1945, one of the last paper balloons descended in the vicinity of the Manhattan Project's production facility at the Hanford Site. This balloon caused a short circuit in the power lines supplying electricity for the nuclear reactor cooling pumps, but backup safety devices restored power almost immediately.
Imagine a fork of various Apple OS's that took skeuomorphic interfaces to their logical conclusion!

We need a name for this: an open set of parallel computing universes. Maybe OpenCandide: The Best of All Possible Worlds. (Ironic misinterpretation of the phrase intentional.)
I'm interesting in restarting the old SD Hacker News Group. I have access to the old email list and there is an existing google group. How about combining efforts?
Yes.

Also, trading off the reliability of power.

This seems outrageous to many of us in the West, but here in Australia our power utility already cuts power to neighborhoods in half hour blocks during peak power consumption during summer (I believe they exclude hospitals and some other sites like that from this policy).

The infrastructure savings made by this are huge (think of 99% reliability vs 99.99% in software), and the few that really need it can invest in backup solutions for those times.
I'm surprised at the number of negative comments about updates. You don't have to update. It will keep working. It's not like you're going to miss out and be left behind from some vast and vibrant react-router ecosystem. It's just a couple components that match strings up with other components and then barely matters to the rest of your application.

It's exciting that there are people out there experimenting endlessly to figure out the best APIs to build things with. Just because someone comes up with one idea doesn't mean they're wed to supporting it forever. Or for any amount of time: react-router v3 is open source and you can maintain it yourself if you like it or just want to stick with it but want more.

You might want to read up on http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Strawman because when you believe that you should write your own version of someone else's point, in a manner that doesn't represent the position or the logic therein, you may in fact be putting up a strawman to try and discredit the other person.

Not to mention Google literally having bought out one of our previous FTC Commissioners, who was paid to fabricate "academic studies" that supported Google's legal positions, which Google then used as "independent" evidence of their claims. During his FTC term, the investigation of Google's conduct mysteriously disappeared, despite the staff at the FTC recommending a case proceed. (And almost every other civilized country has opened such a case against Google. Why's the US silent on the matter?)

Uncontacted native tribes emerge naked and starving from the woods. The males hunt and kill, and the women stick to domestic tasks. They like clothes, they like shoes, and they like shelter. Their behaviors and expectations are hardly that removed from ours. There is nothing wrong with subscribing to long running historical norms until they no longer satisfy you or are otherwise proven harmful.
Commercial users do see this, with higher costs for energy in peak hours as well as "demand charges" based on their highest rate of consumption (typically measured in 15 minute increments). Charging more for those gives an economic incentive to trim down the energy consumption bursts that require peaker plants to run.

Buildings can design load leveling into their systems with things like thermal energy storage that shifts air conditioning consumption off-peak by freezing ice overnight and using it to cool the building during the day.

One example with a Calmac IceBank system: http://www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/blogs/dept/energy-soluti...
No one is attacking you personally. A lot of people read HN for insightful or evidence backed commentary and the voting mechanism is there to maintain this quality. No one can quote your story and retain any credibility -to a third party relating your story sounds like this: "A dude in a web discussion forum claimed that a man who, based on his childhood memories, was a CEO at Alcor, said that...". It has degenerated to a gossip - something that is readily available elswhere. High quality diacussion, on the other hand, is hard to come by.

It's okay to relate anecdotal experience - some these type of comments are really good - but the style in the comment should then reflect the fact that the claim cannot be validated in any concrete way.

See my comment below... it's not too far out of reach.
You need:

- Transit (500Mbps on a 10G port can be had for ~$300/mo in major DCs)

- a /24 or larger IPv4 prefix (Can be free/cheap from your transit provider) or buy one from a broker (usually only /22s and up, @ $6-12/IP)

- a /48 or larger IPv6 prefix (Usually free/cheap from your transit provider) or you can get one from ARIN for ~$2000/yr (for a /32)

- an RIR membership (< $500/yr)

- an ASN (~$500 from your RIR + $100-200/yr)

> There are plenty of junior developers who are eager and ignorant of the potential dangers, though - they will make a mess in any environment, but they'll make a bigger one when given power tools.

I've often wondered about this. c++ has a tendency to fail fast and hard whereas higher level languages can lead to a false sense of security/understanding. Blowing your foot off isn't necessarily a bad thing.
I think that's an interesting question. On a site devoted to entrepreneurship, taking risks sounds pretty good. And, due to survivorship bias even poorly calculated risks will sound good.

Perhaps there's a real world bias as well. Historically, humans had many more children than would live long enough to bear children. Those who played it safe wouldn't thrive enough to have a lot of children. Those who did take a lot of risks either got erased from the record, or went on to have a lot of children. Genghis Khan is probably the best example!

Furthering the idea, bears and cliffs are risky, but a sensible human would have been even more afraid of other humans. And yet, the most cosmopolitan societies tend to be the most successful in terms of demographic health measures as well as economic, political, and even military strength.

Just as it's said that mobsters may be some of the most cautious investors of their accumulated wealth, places where people or more risky in terms of not "othering" as many people get a lot of benefits from the ready trust they place in their neighbors.
No child proof cap? Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen given that most people keep toothpaste in their bathroom and don't take extraordinary care to keep it away from children as they do with other toxic products. (floridated toothpaste is also hazardous to children, but much less toxic than a tube with over 7g of caffeine)

>I agree that there is at least a sentiment, or a potential explanation that world-wide money movements can explain an abnormal demand for cities demographics.

At this point, it's a certainty that it's happening. The only question is to what extent. Overleveraged residents certainly isn't helping, but that alone simply cannot explain Vancouver real estate increasing in value more than the combined annual income of every resident in the city.

>housing has increased in rural areas as well, and in lesser cities.

That's usually chalked up to a combination of residents buying further out because they've been priced out of Vancouver, and former Vancouver owners who sold and are now looking for a "quieter" place to live. That's happened to at least one former landlord of mine, and my friend's parents are in the process of doing that right now. There's also an area to the south that is zoned for agricultural use, with mansion farmhouses and Ferraris parked out front.

>cities could be building more

In Vancouver, that's simply not possible to build more than we already are. People will often blame overregulation or zoning for not building more, but they completely forget about logistics. There isn't a single construction crew in the city that doesn't already have a huge backlog. Realistically, we're putting up towers as fast as they can be built and it's having zero measurable impact on housing affordability. And that's ignoring the already substantial problem of shoddy construction we have in this city.

>For sure i am absolutely against laws and rules that try to patch a problem that is not understood, having the risk of making the problem worse.

The general consensus among people I know is that it will have little to no effect. The government spent so long denying this problem even existed and openly refusing to even consider such a tax back in the spring, to implementing one overnight in the summer. Everyone here pretty much agrees that it's window dressing done to boost abysmal poll numbers in an election year.

>I wonder what modern economists think of this.

Economists out of UBC have been saying that the only explanation for such explosive, unrealistic growth in real estate is a flood of foreign money. Last I heard, they were calling this tax, at best, a good first step.

These casinos offer alot more than games...tons of discounts, cheap food, comps, advertisements aimed at seniors, a community of seniors always there, etc.

Nearly every fun business ignores seniors except casinos. Night clubs dont want them, tv doesnt want them, gaming doesnt want them, etc.

This is because many people don't care and/or switch to autopilot and double-down on their wrong point instead of being able to switch to a position where they can rationalize alternative answers and admit they are wrong. It is quite frustrating to deal with these people[0].

There is no shortage of remote job boards and job aggregators

That's true, there is just a shortage of the job offers. I'm looking for a remote job now. All the job boards have between 2 to 5 job offers per day. To each of them answer thousands of people.

The aggregators are even worse. They are automated. That's why they contain an ad even when it has no remote allowed.

I've been asking myself if I really need it. The very first React project I ever did I managed URLs by myself like I would have done in jQuery/Backbone. Honestly, I don't remember it being that bad.
I've definitely observed this here in SD. When I used to go to meetups as an aspiring developer we'd get lots of recruiters looking for "rockstars" or senior developers, and none (?) just looking for talent they could cultivate. I understand this is a by product of people staying at jobs for 1-3 years these days, but come on, where are future rockstars and senior devs going to come from if someone doesn't give them a shot?

I've been using react-router 0.13.4 for almost a year in a project and it works perfectly. I found no reason to upgrade and am now glad I didn't bother.
If you read a bit further (pages 2 and after) it's actually not all innuendo. In fact some of it is actually laudatory about his contributions. It's basically a very brief summary of Chomsky's ideas and the impact he had on linguistics as a profession. Namely using trees to model syntactical forms and his hypothesis on universal grammar. I don't know what it is about HN that makes people refuse to read past the first little thing they object to and then bloviate about it.
The problem was CAFE; the Ranger was too small and too inefficient to meet increasingly stringent CAFE standards. CAFE rules are based on the "footprint" of the vehicle, basically the area between the wheels, and in 2012 the "light truck" target would edge past the Ranger's footprint/economy combination. There's a detailed article here: http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2012/10/how-cafe-killed-com...

Redesigning the Ranger to have a larger footprint results in a mid-sized pickup only slightly smaller than the base model F-150, which is where the sales-cannibalism problem comes in.

> tail calls are now fully optimized

Can't remember where I heard this, but I'm given to understand they aren't optimized, just allowed. As in, recursive calls from tail position won't be super-fast or anything, they just won't blow out the call stack. Optimization may or may not be added to the engine at some future date.

I think there are 2 sides and both sides are important. I think that the author was focussing on the half of our awake time that we spend doing our job, while you are focussing on the other half.

The author is probably talking about naive remote job seekers who focus on the job but don't consider the team culture. I was one such naive job seeker and used to think in that manner until a few years ago.
we had taken this conversation to mail, but this is what I wrote:

its an ecosystem question. Docker became wildly successful because a developer could start using it in production within minutes. In early stage startups there is NO difference between developers and devops. All of these developers who deployed their MVP apps on docker (like me) are the ones who are starting to pay for services like Codeship, etc. We have grown with the Docker ecosystem.

The question is whether k8s is giving us that flexibility ? I dont see that. For example, the next easy step up for people is Docker-compose: single host.. many services. And that gradually extends to docker-swarm.

Lot of people say I "don't need k8s for 3 node cluster", but I'm still stuck...because I need to do something.

So I have to use docker compose. And then I'm solidly locked into the docker ecosystem.

That's the problem - your value prop is great when someone has 100 clusters... But I'm asking you from an ecosystem perspective : how will you make sure someone like me will choose k8s at some point in the future, when it is unusable for me right now ?

Or do you believe that k8s is so vastly superior to anything else out there, that when I scale up enough... I will have no choice but to move to it (and then call you for help)
It's interesting to think that connectionist theories of language are literally shipping on Google Translate and people still argue about Chomsky. Many of the cognitive scientists were poking about with neural nets too - and they were getting into huge arguments with Chomsky and like folks since the 80's.
I was just talking with an acquaintance who's at a company that invested millions of developer-dollars in cutting-edge tech. 7-10 years later, after a long period of a few developers keeping everything together with duct tape, the whole thing is getting thrown out.

Why? Well, some of it's solid code. That might be worth keeping. But some of it's technologies that fell out of fashion. And there's a bunch of stuff that people wrote in a frenzy, so there's a bunch of tech debt. And even if they stripped it down to the bones, there's a lot of upgrading to do just to get back to where they could do new work with modern libraries. From the business perspective it was easier just to glue together a bunch of outsourced services.

I'm sure those developers all meant well by picking cutting-edge tech. But as Dan McKinley says, we should generally choose boring technology [1]. As you describe, the costs of keeping up with interesting things is substantial. On rare occasions, it's really worth paying that cost. But, mostly, as with my acquaintance's company, the costs can accumulate while your attention is elsewhere, pushing code bases into a sort of technical bankruptcy.

> Chomsky

Heyyy it's actually about Chomsky qua linguist instead of qua political whatever!

> It would be premature to conclude that universal grammar has been proven not to exist.

> But universal grammar has lost some credibility. Suppose the whole notion is eventually abandoned. What will be left?

> Second, psycholinguistics is going to be big business.

Welp. This is some Fox News "I'm just saying" bullshit right here.

edit:

> Third, opportunities to discover more about language are continuing to open out before us.

Language attrition (and the dearth of linguists willing / able to work in the field to produce ethnographies of dying languages) are _decreasing_ our opportunities to learn about human language.
The catch being that muggles do not understand that autopilot isn't taking decision-making and situational awareness responsibility away from the human pilot.
The day a room temp superconductor is developed (and is scalable to mass production) you'll see that change in a crazy hurry. Assuming we're alive then, which is probably not a safe assumption. There are a few things like that which could change the game almost overnight, but a room temp superconductor would be one of, if not the biggest.
I found the stars to be a bit distracting. The book might be better off using thin lines, or, since all the entries are 1 paragraph, just using the small bit of space between paragraphs to signify the breaks.
