It's a complicated issue because it of course depends on how reliant a product is on SEO. Maybe certain pages that bring in views from search engines shouldn't be part of the same client-side application in the first place, but if it must be then the developers have to decide if they're building a SPA to actually hand off workload to the client or because they want to use React. :)

But to the point of the person you were replying to, we definitely overcomplicate web development these days. There are some good reasons for this, like the fact that there's so much competition to contend with(so we all feel like we have to be rockstars), but it's good to remind ourselves that the end goal shouldn't be focused around the tools.
JFYI today's headline: Navy SEAL dies in the cave.

React is a view library that doesn't even provide a way to do XHR requests. Angular is a complete framework. They are very much hammer and screwdriver, completely different and incomparable tools.

There seem to be a lot of people thinking front-end is just a mess of different options all doing the same thing. And the same people show little understanding of the complexities and nuances of front-end solutions.
I've done consulting at that rate. There is selection bias in what you describe: the kind of client who will pay that rate tends to already know they want "best is better" which is why they hired the fancy consultant in the first place. I have also consulted at that rate to pre-revenue startups, a much harder sales pitch because you're literally decimating their burn. The pitch here is advancing their business to the next stage as fast as possible. For this, worse is absolutely better as they don't yet even know what "best" is. They do however know what "done, delivered your MVP in two days" is. BTW if any of you want your MVP delivered in two days, consulting portfolio is in profile.
Your interpretation is not charitable.

The last few flights I've been on have had electrical outlets, which allowed me to compute as normal.
I'm relying on his description:

> The biggest issue I have with the defaults, and the borrow checker is that places in FP where you would normally pass by copy — pass by value, in Rust instead it assumes you want to pass by reference. Therefore, you need to clone things by hand and pass the cloned versions instead. Although it has a mechanism to do this automatically, it’s far from ergonomic.
Philippines is also another great example.

I sometimes ask people how their employer justifies operating a bus service to take them to and from work, but not the additional real-estate cost of giving you a bit of personal space in the workplace.

I'm guessing that they do this because it is "easy" to take away lifestyle benefits if the numbers aren't working but it is "hard" to reconfigure real estate to stuff more people into the same space.

High end, class A office space is $10/sq foot per month in Silicon Valley. An open office plan allocates roughly 15 square feet to each employee ($150/month or $1,800/year). That employee is typically generating more than $10,000 of net income per year to the bottom line for all of the top tech companies). It took Ford nearly 100 people to develop a new automobile feature that could differentiate their cars in the market, it takes Facebook about three. And Ford gave every engineer in that group of 100 an office of their own to work in.

So yeah, times have changed and the employees aren't benefiting as much as they used to. The only question is whether or not they will do anything about it.
That wouldn't work have you not heard of splits :-) ie trusts / funds designed with separate classes of share one gives income one gives capital gain.
Trump, Obama, Bush & W, already beat China to the punch. It's a strange experience to watch an empire crumble in my lifetime, even if most of the people there don't realize how close to the brink their country is --- few, if any, share good sentiments about the US, in the first world -- at least, I haven't met a single non-American that openly says anything positive about the USA these days. It's heartbreaking to watch an entire nation get painted by the actions of a distinct minority.

I have no idea how the US comes back from the events that have unfolded since the Iraq war started ---- but I do know, William A. Henry III's, "In Defence of Elitism" (1994), now seems wildly prophetic of our time and offers a vivid roadmap, albeit not a full picture, to the rise of anti-intellectualism and populism in America ----

It's a very convincing argument that doesn't even spit in the "Russian's" direction, and drops a lot of blame on the Bush/Quayle years and the modern age (and idiotic) liberalists for selling "lies" like equality and political correctness as a party platform --- the left was once the intellectual elite, instead of today's reactionary left which celebrates every arriviste notion, irate minority group, and practices revisionism like a cult. -------- So no, China won't do it because free people don't want the future to be China, but no one is going to rally to US when a better option presents itself either ------ it does not pay to be hated. How does the US turn this around?
I'm living in Uganda at the moment and have a couple of things to add:

1. VPNs still work fine (I'm using one right now, though its one I installed on a digitalocean instance - it's possible those receiving lots of traffic have now been blocked).

2. This tax is unaffordable for many Ugandans (it would be about 5% of the average wage here). Whatsapp is very popular here and this has impacted everybody I know. Most people I've talked to are using a free VPN (they aren't aware of the risks here).

I haven't done much analysis of the blocking yet but I will be doing a more in-depth post about this whole debacle in a few days.

This might well be a good thing to do, but it should be noted that income qualifications come with their own entire bag of tricky problems and potential perverse incentives.

What income level do you set it at? Is it a cliff or phased out? If the latter, what does the curve look like? How does it change with inflation? Are these questions set up front or negotiated by politicians at some frequency? How is wage vs. capital-based income handled? These are the kinds of tricky questions that come up (and are usually not answered very well) with any program that attempts to inject some income-based fairness into some government system.

So I think the answer to your "why not?" is that it will be hard to get it right and is likely to become a political football that may end up making things worse in some way. But the argument for doing it may still be stronger (it seems so to me, without knowing much about it), I'm just saying that there is also a fairly strong counterargument to this sort of thing.
i have a spare (identical) computer, i have backups on site and offsite of my disk images and virtual machines.

The Case for Small Commercial Spaces
Yes, but we run them in production.

Kind of kidding. Our service is strongly seasonal, and there's a specific week every year when our traffic can double or triple compared to the low points of the year.

In the past, that week reliably revealed performance bottlenecks. We would then make it a priority to fix the most recently discovered bottleneck before the next year.

This past year, we finally had a crunch week with zero performance hit.

We've also in the past had trouble with bottlenecks when hit by ill-behaved bots. That problem is also finally solved - we haven't had a bot-related outage in several months.

Based on the load and performance profiles of our infrastructure at throughout levels that have caused outages in the past, and our current load at weekly peak, we now have room to grow traffic 10x without hitting another ceiling. And we're a slow growing business, so that gives us at least a few more years before it becomes a concern.

Note that this strategy is not an awesome one and is in fact VERY bad if you run a service with SLAs; with traffic patterns that include extreme spikes; or where high availability is critical. But it's worked out just fine for us.

You also can extend beyond the 6th year based on an approved I-140 so actually the GC process can be started in the final year but this is riskier of course. Our generally practice is to kick it off at the beginning of the 5th year but I also feel strongly that it's almost never worth it to stay in a job for immigration reasons and that if you're inclined toi switch, switch soon and negotiate with your new employer to sponsor you relatively soon (after you've proven yourself).
I've thought about this as a commercial operation in the UK; but TBH I can't see that you could make enough money from it. However, it does seem to serve a very useful function in society, and would be something I'd want to fund through government - but it goes against commercial interests (people with repairs don't buy as much stuff).

We're getting some charities working to help people make repairs, some maker-spaces and such that facilitate people doing it themselves, etc..

Wasn't it an equally true description of how the English settlers fought?

As a reminder, and quoting from, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_massacres .

>English colonists and Creek allies under former Carolina Governor James Moore launched a series of brutal attacks on the Apalachee villages of Northern Florida. They murdered 1000 Apalachees and enslaved at least 2000 survivors.

> In the Pequot War, English colonists commanded by John Mason, with Mohegan and Narragansett allies, launched a night attack on a large Pequot village on the Mystic River in present-day Connecticut, where they burned the inhabitants in their homes and killed all survivors, for total fatalities of about 600–700.

> Colonial militia and Indian allies attacked a Narragansett fort near South Kingstown, Rhode Island. At least 40 warriors were killed and 300 women, children and elder men burnt in the village.

People who hire contractors are usually not developers. I've had my fair bit of working with contractors, let's just say that if you get them to work in domain logic without very strict oversight, you are going to have a bad time. Tooling, purely technical matters - that's more like something you can give them to work on.
While I want to agree with this, it's hard to argue that Facebook and Google "privatize all the gains." If you added up all of the economic value that google's zero-dollar-cost products provide globally (even ignoring Facebook which IMO has a much more dubious net value), that's going to be a pretty big number.
I will write a bigger post later on. But whatever happens do not apply for I-485 till you get your I-140 approved.

I did that mistake and had to leave US recently after my I-140 and I-485 got rejected. Once your I-485 is denied - you can't move to options like O-1, E-2, B1 etc. H1 will be your only option.

As far as chances of EB1-A. If you work in tech and are a startup co-founder, the chances of getting an EB1-A currently are really low. I talked to quite a few top law firms recently - BAL, Wolfsdorf etc, and they all mentioned that tech startup founders are finding it really difficult to get EB1-A.

Two of my petitions were rejected. I had lot of media about me, sold a company, leadership positions in various companies, wrote a book which is part of MBA course, judge at hackday. Apparently that was not enough.
>people don't throw out technology until it's obsolete

People throw out computers (including screens and everything) because the mouse stopped working, or the power supply needs replacing or the computer got a virus. A washing machine needs a new door-seal, a cooker needs a new light, people actually throw out that sort of stuff. Ebay has helped to make a market for junk, but oftentimes it seems people over-estimate the financial value of their used stuff and that hinders reuse in favour of replacement.
Mutation testing also seems interesting.

I wish we had tools for proving object invariants widely available. But such tools tend to come from people pushing their latest type theory or functional programming or something. They're too complex and abstract for most programmers. I tried to fix this once, but it was too soon in the early 1980s.[1] (That was before objects. We would have had object invariants if objects had existed back then. We had function invariants and module invariants.)

This stuff is useful is when you have lots of modifiable data structures which need to be consistent. Window managers. Operating systems. Game engines. Database internals. Most of the things you need to prove are trivial. But you need tools to check that invariant A is maintained by code far distant from where invariant A is defined. Maintenance programmers will miss that.

Yeah, I don't really understand what the OP is trying to say there other than "I'm frustrated." The lack of examples makes it hard to know. Passing by value works just fine in Rust, so it's hard to unpack what the author was getting at.
Actually, no. I started working in React about two years ago and if anything, I think the ecosystem in the OP map has stabilised somewhat. I think that SASS use is starting to fade and grid layout is now a thing but not like the whole gulp to grunt to webpack thing. Plus create-react-app makes starting easier.

What frustrated me is that management had no idea of all the bases you needed to cover and expected me to be a backend dev and performant in Java, Spring, Elasticsearch and a whole variety of other things in Java land.

> The only way to achieve demonstrable correctness is to rely on mathematical proofs performed mechanically.

This is guaranteed to fail. What are you going to prove by your mathematical proof performed mechanically? That the program performs correctly? How do you define "correctly"? At bottom, it is defined by an informal specification in peoples' heads. You cannot mathematically prove correspondence to that, even in principle.

At best, you can prove correspondence to the most-high-level formal specification. But how do you prove that that specification is "what the program should do"?

The next problem with this approach is that it has costs. Having to write a mathematically rigorous formal specification for all the behaviors of a program takes non-trivial time and effort. As others have said, that effort could have been put into other things, like more features. Would we rather have more perfect software, or more feature-rich software? Above a certain level of quality, we'd rather have more features. (Yes, software often drops below that level of quality...)

Facebook has a built a legal surveillance machine that can read the thoughts of most people on the planet. That is very valuable. I don't doubt Facebook is incredibly valuable both for reading our thoughts and for its ability to shape them.
The only current danger to Facebook's model is the EU severely curtailing their operations within the EU, but even if they have just the US market that is still hugely valuable.

Of course it is a danger to society and hugely unethical but financially they are sound.
That's not how tax brackets work. The new bracket applies only to income in that bracket, entering the 22% bracket means that income above that threshold is taxed at 22%, your income below that is still taxed at 12%.
Some religions consider root vegetables like onions not okay to eat, because harvesting an onion involves killing the whole plant. 'Really holy' men and women might avoid any root vegetable to further their spiritual development.
