You are definitely right that there are still challenges around how you structure and re-use JSX components.

However, our primary motivation with CSS-in-JS was to achieve decoupling between different parts of the page when it comes to CSS. I.e. if I change this part of page A, will I break other parts of the page? Or even, will I break something on a completely different page? By scoping styles to components, CSS-in-JS helps avoid these kinds of issues. Of course, it introduces its own complexities.

This is really not an academic concern on a large website with daily commits by developers often from different teams and not necessarily experts in CSS. Only last week I had to fix an issue of this kind.

We just gave a bunch of his newborn stuff to another couple that's having their second shortly; they gave him a bunch of their first's when she outgrew them.

Interesting that this web site uses a Let's Encrypt certificate. I suppose it saves the maintainers from being gouged by a beltway bandit charging thousands to monitor and then update an ordinary CA-issued certificate.
Lovely, but if you're making a big deal about quotes and pull-aways in your format, might I encourage you to use proper quotation marks — eg. “The” vs. "The"?
I’m wondering that myself. It makes a BIG difference to me when strings appear out of context. With zeros and Os together it can be very confusing, and the dot or slash makes a big difference.

Back before the far right started getting really bad in the US (2004-2008ish) I even enjoyed /b/ on 4chan. There were several experiments that would be run on the board, with one eliminating IDs even within individual threads. The effect is that, every idea and comment is judged as-is, with no BS authority. Granted, still being in general a cesspool, and only a few years past its childporn heydays, often very negative ideas are given honest support.

But in the end, everything expires after a few hours anyway, no matter how popular, which I always thought was the true value of 4chan

Tutorials on old versions of software are not universally irrelevant. Sometimes, for some people, they are invaluable. I know such tutorials have been godsends to me before.

Perhaps not 2001. But there were certainly people starting to ask by the mid to late-2000s whether source code freedom was what we really needed to be worrying about the most, see e.g. Tim O'Reilly and Tim Bray here: https://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2006/07/28/Open-Data

Many, perhaps most people don't want to think about software. It should just work and you shouldn't have to mess with it. If something is broken, they will ask for help. Somewhat cumbersome procedures are okay as long as they always work and don't change.

I don't see how that fits all that well with a do-it-yourself, volunteer ethic. It fits better with a service-based approach where people just hire others to help if they need help. But then you're competing with Apple stores.

Or, alternately, you can buy a Chromebook for a less tech-savy relative. It's a rather practical solution.

The place where open source really works is with young people who want to get involved. There is a big enough community to sustain it, but not enough to really take over.
I don't know why people are demonizing this. By ending in-person visits, one jail is able to redirect manpower towards its GED program. That's somehow evil? No doubt video calls are inferior compared with face-to-face meetings, but the trade off seem entirely reasonable. Inmates will have more opportunities to talk to their family and they'll get more educational help. It's a decidedly positive development.
That's just opinion. As long as it's not hugging the edge it's fine, it's erring in the side of caution at best.
This is why we need the (A)GPL: to ensure that products built on open-source tech can benefit the community at large.

I checked out a few "influencers" out of curiosity when I first heard the term. It's far worse than Cokie and Cramer. I mean, at least they are mildly interesting to watch or listen to. The new sort seemed invariably dull and vacuous to me. Unwatchable, unlistenable, unreadable, like Season 4 of 'Do you poop enough' on channel 138. I'm not even that picky. I figured it must be mostly fake.

My point is that attractiveness, and any market forces around it, are pretty secondary if people aren't even _trying_ to have relationships. Which, I think, they are not, in massive proportions. There is (I believe) a significant fraction of young people who meet fewer than one person they're interested in per month. That's not losing to market forces; it's just not participating. Among active participants, sure, there might be a market, but if you want to figure out why people aren't having sex, look at why so many people aren't participating.

I don't think this should be surprising.

How much you make has little to do with whether you live paycheck-to-paycheck. You can have a lot of expenses on non-discretionary things.

I don't think it's healthy as a society to be thinking of having kids as "lifestyle inflation." To me, it speaks more to the real crisis of urban centers like SF that have become so inhospitable to raising families due to terrible exclusionary housing policies that have crowded out middle income/upper middle income families.
Myself and many others might argue the "unnecessary" bit...

"someone working at facebook" probably isn't an employee, most likely anything requiring case by case human discretion is a contractor position that pays shit.

On the other hand, this seems like a way to legitimately take your instagram career to the next level! Networking is about who you know, not about how many people you know. Knowing a Facebook verification contractor is some pretty ironclad social proof.

Partly Cloudy: The Start of a Journey into the Cloud
Since everyone else tore this apart already, I think it's valuable to note that this is taken from some random guy's personal blog, who has an interest in driving traffic to his website.

Since the picture itself doesn't give any advice on how to actually reduce said costs and the couple is probably entirely hypothetical, I can only deduce that this whole thing was created to generate outrage and direct views of their personal blogspam website.

In other words, this is nothing more than clickbait.

It could have, and in fact Notch moved to reddit shortly after Minecraft's "birth" which helped expand it's popularity exponentially. (He went from posting on /v/ 100% to 100% on /r/minecraft over the course of a couple months - memory is hazy)

I'm convinced the initial randomness/anonymous feedback/chaos of that initial period helped grow the spark from the ember that split off of Infiniminer.

Budgeting $7200/yr for entertainment, $8400/yr for a luxury car, $7800/yr for vacation and $25000/yr for food.

This article addresses moral panic and so it may seem like it is not an extension of it, but I think it basically still is. People have tried for decades, through scientific research, to quantify harm caused by video games and have failed over and over again. Can people become "addicted" to them and use them as escape mechanisms? Sure, But that happens with all kinds of things, from chess to reading to running.

It's rare to see a real impassioned defense of gaming outside of "it's not that bad" but I'd like to go out and say it had a hugely positive impact on my life and I think it's really doubtful I'd be where I am today without gaming. Beyond giving me the foundations of the technical skills I used to become an engineer, gaming gave me tons of social skills as well. As an adolescent I was able to play a ton of different roles in a group in a way that I wasn't able to in real life, even in sports and mock trial and things like that, where other elements of teamwork were present. This prepared me greatly for understanding deep collaboration with teammates at work today. Much more than group projects in school. Like orders of magnitude more so.

It's also important to note that despite being the safest the country has ever been, adolescents are more restricted than ever before. It is extremely rare for them to have places where they can be free, with their friends, and also trying out new social roles. This is an extremely valuable process and it's really difficult to do these days. I don't think there is anything wrong with Fortnite, but I think if you're trying to figure out why people play it and you reduce that down to "bright flashing colors and escapism" you're missing a ton of the context.

And this isn't to rag on sports and say gaming is better (or theater, or woodworking, if those are your things) it's just to say: it's 2019. This gaming thing has been going on for quite some time. It's a real thing with depth, mastery and real benefits that spread into the rest of your life just like playing sports, or chess or however else you think kids should be spending their time. Let's stop tiptoeing around gaming like it's just a vice and start emphasizing the positive things we get out of it.

I'm a transportation cyclist. People seem to assume this some sort of massive "sacrifice", yet I actually prefer to do this mostly because it costs less and helps me stay in shape. If I need a car, I can rent one. (And despite having a zipcar membership for over 5 years, I just recently cancelled it because I never used it once.)

I am hopeful that what superficially seems like a massive downgrade in other areas is just an illusion. It might be different, even "worse" in some senses, but ultimately I hope people will find climate friendly solutions acceptable or even better in the long run. We can't know until we try, and I don't see many people in the US willing to try.

The page does not list enforcement mechanisms for cartels, and in fact says: "In general, cartel agreements are economically unstable in that there is an incentive for members to cheat by selling at below the agreed price or selling more than the production quotas set by the cartel (see also game theory). This has caused many cartels that attempt to set product prices to be unsuccessful in the long term. Empirical studies of 20th century cartels have determined that the mean duration of discovered cartels is from 5 to 8 years."

Come to think of it, the general idea is "If you, as an insurance company, foot the bill for these treatments with long-term benefits for your clients, this will cost $X, but save you $Y and other nearby insurance companies $Z in the future. Therefore, we the association will pay you $z < $Z to do it, and by assumption $Y+$Z > $X, so there should exist values of $z that make this profitable for both parties (anything between $X-$Y and $Z)." The carrot is the payment of $z.

In terms of whether this association could become a price-fixing cartel... It's probably easier to verify compliance when compliance consists of performing a positive behavior (i.e. paying healthcare providers to do certain treatments; whatever the details of the payment, the important thing is whether the treatment was performed) instead of a negative behavior (i.e. not selling extra product at a lower price on the side). It doesn't seem obvious that this would make price-fixing much easier than it currently is.

Recent research suggests that our brains attack bacteria with amyloid beta. The result of a low-level bacterial infection is therefore not a lot of bacteria, but ever growing amounts of amyloid beta plaques. Which are easy to spot. After that, it is a question of what kinds of bacteria attack brains.

Until recently, the prevailing theory was that the amyloid beta plaques were themselves the cause of Alzheimers. As a result we spent an insane amount of money developing a variety of drugs that would clear/prevent those plaques. They did reduce the plaques, but did absolutely nothing for the disease. However with virtually all research money devoted to this theory, and all top researchers on record as believing it, alternative theories fought an uphill battle for acceptance.

The old theory is still conventional wisdom and a lot of research efforts are focused on it. But there is mounting evidence for the infectious model. The result is a classic paradigm shift in Kuhn's sense of the word where researchers in each paradigm literally speak past the other. Each regarding their theory as proven. To someone who thinks that infectious disease is the problem, the fact that mouth bacteria have been found in the brain, plus a correlation between gum disease and Alzheimer's, is a smoking gun for causation. To someone who thinks that amyloid beta is the problem, it is an interesting correlation but not compelling enough to overturn the prevailing theory.
