React is great for web development (using Next.js) based on my recent experience.

Citing only one side of any architectural trade-offs isn't particularly interesting either. The other side is that we can now easily build sites using Universal JS (serverside-rendered combined with SPA).

Delivering a website with seemingly instantaneous repaints even on flaky internet connections is just a superior end-user experience.

Just click through the primary nav of a Universal JS site vs an old-school one, and it feels like we've been putting up with the equivalent of the old 300 ms tap delay, but for all websites and website links.

Not engineering away that latency penalty will tend towards foolish for website properties that want to remain competitive.

Users will become increasingly accustomed to very responsive sites and the latency penalty that is currently normalised will become more glaring and unacceptable.

Cool— quite similar to one we developed: https://github.com/two-n/join-transition

This sort of declarative transition comes in handy for us all the time. Two features I don't see yet in React-Move that we find useful is a prop for more precise control over the staggering (orderBy), and custom interpolation (interpolate).
Great question! There are great libraries like Create-GraphQL (https://github.com/lucasbento/create-graphql) that can help you scaffold an app on the server side pretty quickly, and it's fairly un-opinionated. That one in particular works with Mongo, but I believe they're rolling out support for other data sources as well soon.

In addition, if you're looking for a hi-fidelity way of building apps without having to worry about the server-side, Scaphold.io (https://scaphold.io) is a GraphQL backend as a service that can help. I work full-time here, and we help you get from zero to GraphQL in a matter of minutes.

And with this you have two options:

1) If you want to use the service, by all means :)

2) We're built to the open standard / Relay spec, meaning that if you want to create an app to learn about how the API is structured, that can help as well. Here's more of a primer on how our API is built and works anywhere (https://docs.scaphold.io/coredata/schema/).

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions on our Slack (http://slack.scaphold.io)!
Nobody is talking about a gravity vector pointing towards the center of the earth during the entire maneuver. The implied assumption, I believe, is 1G towards the floor of the plane at all times.

This is quite easy to do when you realize that the plane can (and will) lose altitude and transfer ground-relative horizontal momentum for the vertical.

Writing tests for your own code is a relatively recent phenomenon.

When I worked at MSFT as a developer in the early 2000s, we had dedicated test developers who wrote tests. You wrote your code and checked it in after a code review and as long as it passed the integration tests, the test developers wrote their (what would now be called) unit tests and checked them in to make sure someone else didn't break your code.

I think writing your own tests gained favor in the early/mid-2000s with the "extreme programming" and TDD movements (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development)

because most americans don't like CS?they like arts, history etc.. most indians and foreigners go to CS because of $$ alone. the motivation for a US citizen is "i want to study what my interests are."

I was looking at doing something similar recently, but I ran into the problem of finding a good database of cocktail recipes, especially one that I didn't need to pay for.

What I think would be even better is an app that makes up recipes based on what you have, sort of like Chef Watson (www.ibmchefwatson.com) for cocktails.

It is just polite for text referring to users or ones colleagues. But I find this new ungendered language in its consequence a bit bland/unpersonal though? Googles guide recommends A and B as names in new documentation, instead of using the traditional Alice and Bob, which I find less readable and makes me think of a dystopian future were people don't have names anymore.

And while scrubbing "sister class" from comments (or replacing it with "sibling") is not a big deal, it kind of lacks a certain human charm?

The 1G is from the frame of reference of the passenger. Gravity's effects are essentially nil for the passengers (and the aircraft itself), since everything in the aircraft is accelerating in the same way at the same time. You only really feel the force of the lift generated by the wings.

Full disclosure: I have no idea how it works in Bangkok. I'm extrapolating from what I learned in Seoul.

However, I'd be surprised if getting a profitable spot for one's cart doesn't involve a lot of "connections" and occasional show of force. After all, there are many more people who are willing to use these spots. If government isn't protecting the "owners" via property rights, someone else is doing the job. (It could be the merchants themselves. Whether that's desirable is left for the readers to decide.)

Reminds me of this excerpt from A man for all seasons[1]:

Roper: So now you'd give the Devil benefit of law!

More: Yes. What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?

Roper: I'd cut down every law in England to do that!

More: Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned round on you — where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country's planted thick with laws from coast to coast — man's laws, not God's — and if you cut them down — and you're just the man to do it — d'you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety's sake.

>So: What would be better? Given that the world currently runs on email, what would be enough better that it would be worth it to switch? I don't know.

This is something I've thought about quite a bit recently. For one, I absolutely hate the fact that when I give out my email address, the receiver can give my address to a third party. The third party has full capability to contact me, I can never know who gave up my email address, and I can never revoke the capability. At a minimum, an email replacement would need to address this.

You're right, replacing email would be really hard. There are a few things I'd like to see that could at least improve the current situation.

1. Push companies/organisations that request your email address to provide you in advance with the sender address they will use in the future to contact you, so that if we wanted to we could maintain a whitelist of accepted addresses to prevent all unsolicited mail.

2. Come up with a service that makes it easy to manage throw-away addresses that redirect to the same inbox so that I can essentially revoke the address that I hand out to somebody.

I dig the changes in the landing pages, but I wished the documentation pages got the same treatment. At present, the documentation is not readable easily on mobile browsers.

Are you considering converting the documentation pages to responsive design too?

Also the black and yellow theme looks great on the home page, but that theme loses its continuity on all the other pages. It's as if the home page was designed by a different person, the feature and other landing pages by someone else, and the documentation pages by someone else altogether.
I don't understand why. They have a WebGL version in Google Maps that look almost identical. The data is the same between the two. Did they recompile the old desktop client to NaCl for no good reason? They didn't even keep any features, the only thing they kept seem to be the rendering. The new client isn't even close to the old desktop version that hasn't seen an update in years, and probably never will either.

No, I'm defending the Chinese room thought experiment. It's cheating to look at the implementation and then claim it isn't AI; you can't look at the human implementation which could very well also be based on simple math we simply haven't figured out yet. It's only fair to judge by inputs and outputs. And you are confusing AI with AGI; something does not have to have human level intelligence to be AI. The Turing test is about AGI, not AI.

Useful and relevant world changing AI will happen long before AGI which could very well be a pipe dream. A car that drives far better than humans is useful AI and yet would fall short of AGI, a robot that can clean my house is useful AI but could fall way short of AGI, there are vast world changing things to be done by AI long before AGI ever becomes a reality and that we understand how something works DOES NOT disqualify it from being AI, even if it boils down to little more than some statistical inference.

Saying it isn't AI because you understand how it works is like saying submarines can't swim; it doesn't have to work like nature to be valid nor does it have to be like human intelligence to be intelligent and any intelligence we build is by definition artificial intelligence. Machine learning that can diagnose better than a doctor... is AI, not matter how well you understand it's just math, it's still AI. Those who conflate AI with consciousness are the ones in err. AI does not and has not ever meant artificial self aware consciousness, while such a thing would be AI, it would be the pinnacle of AI, AGI.

Sorkin's article ignores Ballmer's billion-dollar tax dodge... er, break... for buying a basketball team.* Ballmer should revise his boast from "paid for with pre-tax dollars" to "paid for with "shamefully un-taxed dollars."

Interesting terms that don't show up when googling Ballmer's site (at least as of today...):
tax expenditure tax shelter estate tax good will sports team basketball... e.g.,
tax expenditure site:usafacts.org

And so much for the "already taxed" argument by Trump's billionaire class (and their gullible middle- and working-class sycophants) against the estate tax. How much supposedly already-income-taxed dollars of wealth will soon escape estate taxes? And how much will all of these tax expenditures add to working and middle class taxes and the national debt?

Now that, Mr. Sorkin, would be an interesting article.

Not sure what you're referring to here. React state is UI state. Components are of course visual (the "V" in MVC), and component state is what you use for UI state. So there's no separation of concerns being violated, unless you believe in a strict separation of style and component, which I think is a fallacy.

Animation stuff in Redux state would not be as nice.

> What we do not want it companies that bring in cheap barely-qualified labour for cost-cutting.

The alternative at many tech companies (including mine) is to outsource to the cheap overseas labour while they continue to work remotely from their home countries. Still competing against US workers, but no US income tax paid. H1-B's seem like the lesser of two evils for the country. Not having a US visa does not stop said person from working for a US company, in this day and age.

Suggested reading related to the topic: Smart & Sexy by R. Kaynes (https://www.amazon.com/Smart-Sexy-Evolutionary-Underpinnings...)

I wonder how he would comment this study...

- higher IQ men are more likely to get married (because a higher IQ gives them an advantage hence they are more desirable to women), and higher IQ men earn more

- married men have more pressure to dedicate their time and effort to provide for their family, hence they end up earning more

- married men have more pressure and make different career choices to better provide for their family

- this is a small leftover from a past, more conservative, more family oriented society (before women entered the workforce) which valued married men more (because more useful to society)

I hear this argument all the time.

If the companies could offshore everything, they would have already done it. If they can't, they can afford to hire Americans for the few onsite employees they've got left.

Otherwise, they should move their whole operation - the executive board and their families, included - to S. India.

The going expectation for professional résumés is about honesty and modesty. What you say on that piece of paper should reflect what you would be able to come in the next day and be productive doing.

I agree with this....and I think it is a reflection of the diminishing value that accelerators bring to the table for software startups. Teams great enough to get into YC are great enough to build a product, take it to market, generate revenue and grow just fine without an accelerator.

It depends on your frame of reference. If you're on the space station, are you falling down with 1G of force? Yes, but so is everything else around you, so we consider this to be effectively weightlessness.

An aircraft which is freefalling will be experiencing 0G's in that downward direction, but if the aircraft's wings are creating 1G of force perpendicular to the force of gravity, the only forces experienced within the frame of reference of the aircraft is that 1G sideways.

H1Bs are still way more expensive vs offshoring. There's a host of reasons it hasn't been done yet but if it was clearly going to happen it would have long ago. Engineering would have gone the way of manufacturing in this country but instead the opposite is true. I personally think it's because engineering is complex (even CRUD apps) and requires a lot of communication, back and forth etc. There's a lot of nuance that's not easily defined into step by step factory instructions. It's a field where you need to be taught to think first and countries with very weak educational systems cannot compete easily.
