Yeah, I agree. But the signal is still the disorder that needs to be fixed.

Any psychiatrist will tell you that psychiatric medications only treat the symptoms of mood disorders and that they do not know the cause of most of them. It is hogwash that they think mood disorders are "only chemical imbalances in the brain". They know these disorders are polygenic and environmental. But for some people, a short dose of SSRI's or antipsychotics can keep them alive long enough to find out what it is that is giving them so much pain, i mean singnals.

So you think that ketosis doesn't exist and that I've lost 20 kg of water and glycogen?

Or are you trying to make a point out of things you didn't say?
Doesn't sound like that's facebook's problem to fix, and nor should they be blamed for the consequences of it.

There are significant challenges being presented by the new tools that humanity has built for communication over the last 20 years. I'm not sure that it's the fault of the people who are building those tools that our institutions are failing to get a grip on it.

There is a very simple answer to the problem of "why is facebook getting to choose what's right and wrong" and that's "we're not doing it, so they have to".

Why don't we just step up and start making some rules?
Thanks for writing that. I sometimes forget that these basic facts are not (sufficiently) common knowledge.
Demo Apps and Building a Business Off GPT-3
The author addresses this as well:

> I think a good ol’ Pete Hunt-style “Thinking in X mode” blog post would go a long way.

They point out that maybe all that's missing is a simple explanation of the thinking behind the new React features is, much like React and its developers did when they first introduced ground breaking features.
> He is the founder of Formik and co-host of The Undefined Podcast.

You can disagree with him fine, but I'm quite sure the founder of Formula knows what he's talking about when it comes to React.
who is 66 % waste: w is 300 % shorter and shows up to 721 % more valuable information.
Well, if it's a standard library function, it should not matter what language it's written in. The _intent_ is to make it accessible to everyone, and Debian breaks that assumption.
What leads you to perceive that being stranded in Russia is discrediting Snowden?

I don't doubt that (almost) any other American taking shelter in Russia would make a dent on their reputation in US, but I'm curious about Snowden specifically. IMO, Those who know what he did and how he did (in general) seem to support him. A minority hates him. But the rest of public opinion?
Speaking to something I have little experience with, but 'old, @&$@-you money isn't adventurous' would seem to apply.
That's not a developers fault, that is the insane JS ecosystem. Every year, everything old breaks and everything new is different. Of course no one can keep up, develop intuition and good practices, so all that's left to do is copy. That is how learning works, only the curve never flattens (and nothing is really learned, nothing is gained).
I feel similarly with Nomad vs Kubernetes
From my ultra naive perspective - this was always the case with me.

At the very beginning, Virtual DOM manipulation/management was beyond me. Then they updated the engine to React Fiber. If I thought I understood anything under the hood, I really didn't then.

I believe the author is talking about tiny unexpected side effects as a result of the complexity. Like on a particular hook, 1+1=2 out to 7, 9's. But if you do it just in the right way, you'll get a weird side effect (i.e. 1.0+1=3).

This is a typical result of being a ultra power user and I feel the author's pain.

FWIW, I don't think being a black box is bad. Kernels are black boxes, CPUs are black boxes, to so many of us anyway.

The spirit of what the author is trying to make is - this black box isn't completely predictable. It's only mostly predictable - it needs to get better so everyone can rely on it.
12 and I still have a few to add. At some point I will have to either upgrade my BI server CPU or split the camera's likely.

From the article:

> Mike McDonald, an aerospace engineer at the Naval Research Laboratory in Maryland, will be among the first [attempt to replicate their results]. He leads an internal program for independently testing advanced propulsion systems, which has previously shot down promising results from the EmDrive.
Ice lake definitely brings IPC improvements, but there’s a big asterisk: it can’t clock as high as their 14nm parts.

So results can be a little mixed. It’s clearly pulling more weight at lower clocks but lacks the high frequency performance of intel’s hella refined at this point 14nm process.

And that’s what makes Tiger Lake interesting. It’s all the good stuff Ice Lake has going for it, but now Intel is able to take off the training wheels.
I was once directed to appear at a Las Vegas hotel lobby at 7 AM sharp. I was to drive various poker celebrities from shoot to shoot around the city for a movie. Included was a detailed itinerary. I recognized the names from various TV poker shows.

I wonder what happened when I didn't show up (I did let them know that I wouldn't be there), and I wonder if it was ever finished and released.

Yes, I also get the bills (mostly from electricians in Australia for some reason) the porn/game signups, the notes from Grampa, etc.
I agree.

I do not envy people struggling through the adoption curve of using Hooks. I don't know enough about them to know how to "fix" them, nor do I have the time to care about that problem - but I would love to see a different syntax, abstraction, or some kind of guard rails around them.

I might be wrong, but it has always felt like scope & hoisting are the primary language features that hooks operate on... both features that I prefer to avoid.

Adopting them seems to require the same leap of faith that is required with something far more complex like early angular versions. The "I don't get it but I'll just follow the rules" kind of vibe... But the web community seemed to understand and fall in love with Rx a few years ago, so I'm sure hooks can become more well understood, too.
People don't like to see quack science take funding from legitimate science. I am not qualified to judge whether or not this is quack science, but it certainly reeks of the same claims as previously documented quack science.
It seems to be a tactic not so uncommon as that. It happened here in Canada:

Did you read it again?

"to CHECK your knowledge level"

Doesn't sound at all to me like they're saying "read this and you'll be ready to learn React". More like "if you find any part of this overview to be confusing, you might find React confusing."

Also, I learned enough React to be dangerous when I didn't know anything about reactive or functional programming. I imagine plenty of people have had the same experience.

International law doesn’t exist as we would understand it, the global system’s inherent anarchy and thus lack of law, or lawlessness, is essentially axiomatic in IR.

> The appendix is 100% harmful

It is not.

Much better examples would be cancer and auto-immune diseases. Evolution is not magical, it can't produce 100% fault-free organisms. Or maybe it will, given a few more billion years. But in a limited time span, there is no reason to expect it to correct any potential flaw in an organism (and experience obviously shows that it hasn't).
When people do prediction, they also simulate system states given known priors and behavioral characteristics. The distinction you're making is in my opinion not valuable (or at least, you've not demonstrated it's value here).
Way back when computer to computer serial connections were a thing, you could get a cable that erroneously connected the power as well as the signal. Even if the two computers had the same ground, if the voltage regulator of one computer's power supply was slightly higher voltage than the other one, then it would try to power both computers, with the power flowing through the cable. This would tend to break either the cable, or the power supply. This particular thing shouldn't be a problem with USB, as the power supply has protection circuitry.
Brand and creative strategy in times of endless disruption
There are no diseases, only symptoms. We can name diseases forever but that gets us nowhere. They just have more depression, or are more depressed.

By the way, why don't people get SSRI's when they are depressed with a flu? I mean that is caused my lower serotonin as well. So for some reason we accept that depression because we have a reason for it?

https://www.inverse.com/article/40843-what-f-lu-do-es-t-o-yo...

You see, depression is fundamentally and immune disorder. We react negatively to something in the environment, like a bad job or marriage.
"becoming" - it has been since the beginning. You have to import the react library or it doesn't work. You create classes but never instantiate them. JSX is invalid JavaScript syntax. It's a veritable cornucopia of black box features, with hooks being just the latest.
Good old XKCD 927 applies [1].

It may be worth explicitly noting that category theory and set theory are not mutually exclusive. You can use set theory as the foundation, and build category theory on that, and then use category theory to do all that interconnection of fields and whatnot. To me it seems like the most natural way to do it, because set theory is simple and intuitive (kind of), whereas category theory is complicated and extremely abstract.

(Of course there is a lot of stuff in set theory that is counter-intuitive when you get to infinite sets, but I still think that's better than what you have with categories where they're just abstract algebraic objects and there isn't any intuition in the first place.)
You seem to think @dang is in disagreement, but by sharing the relevant previous posts, he's both supporting the new post, and helping reduce the number of kneejerk "but this was already posted" responses.

> React powers one of the most complicated and widely available web apps in the world. That the company and team building it are including tools and philosophies which feel awkward for your CRUD app should simply feel... right. But what certainly doesn't feel right is to see the core team build out more and more features, which support more and more advances and highly specialized use-cases, only to then see the community turn on them somehow because it is "too complicated" or a black box.

Not sure if you can blow more smoke up Zuckerberg's ass?

I feel like we need a new word: 'trickle down software' (in the pejorative sense). It recognizes that the corporatocracy has plundered the Commons/public domain [1], and are 'gifting' us frameworks like React while keeping the most useful strategies and mission critical frameworks and strategies for themselves.

Maybe I should just stick to campaigning for 1) Protocol Cooperativism using Arthur Brock and Eric Harris-Braun's Holographic chain distributed application framework, together with 2) Mikorizal.org's Holo-REA economic framework - an Open Value Network (OVN) based on the Resource Event Agent (REA) accounting model (first developed by Bob and Lynn and Tiberius), which works as a transparent alternative to black-boxed corporate Enterprise Resource Software (ERP). OVN's can be used to fund open source hardware projects, and help with the transition to Commons-based peer production.

But I just think someone needs to point out the hypocritical and 'privacy-washing' behavior of corporations who 'open source' non-critical pieces of code and then leech on free software developers and destroy and corrupt these people's hacker+maker philosophy with wads of cash and a life of consumerist 'luxury'.

All of these actions are in turn based on the Silicon Valley lone Genius Myth, which bears the unspoken underlying promise of individual greatness and merits [2]. Damn it is painful to think back to how much self-loathing this delusional belief brought onto myself.

>To this day I am wondering if eMule would still have an active userbase if it had some sort of mechanism that (via opt-in) allowed clients to download from trustworthy „friends“ only and pipelined those downloads from the „public“ ed2k network through these friends and their friends' networks. Yeah, may be a bad idea but to my knowledge never really got explored.

> author doesn't know what he's talking about

The author is Jared Palmer. He's a well-known engineer who has worked with React for years, and the author of a very popular OSS React library (Formik).
Sorry but that attitude is extremely dangerous. Maybe you have a less severe case that's manageable without treatment but that's not the case for everyone. Mania states are actively brain damaging and can blow into full-on psychosis. There is no lifestyle change, diet or essential oil that's going to stop that from happening for folks with a severe bipolar disorder, which is absolutely a disease since it destroys your brain if left unchecked.

Spreading such misinformation can lead to people not seeking treatment and getting hurt. Your case is absolutely not the canonic case for people with bipolar disorder.
Nitpick: gcc and g++ are not different frontends but different compiler drivers. They can both invoke the C and C++ frontends (cc1 and cc1plus) and select them based on the file extension unless specified using the -x option. The difference between gcc and g++ is mainly in which libraries are linked by default.
Hasn’t been my experience. The author must not be very experienced in working with React.

I took a quick look at the docs and I'd say the API looks to be pretty similar to mithril.js. Not sure why you think mithril would have a thicker abstraction in comparison.
Not personally but I have worked there and knew a few colleagues.

One young, single (i.e. no kids), healthy, alcohol lover (really expensive in Sweden) didn't like it very much and returned to the US after a couple of years. He couldn't stand the boring night life of Stockholm, being an American didn't help getting friends and didn't understand why did he have to pay high taxes,

Another guy, middle level manager married with kids, obviously older, moved between Copenhagen, Stockholm and Prague and his worst complaint was the Danish weather.

Note that it is not that easy to compare salaries, especially in the more "Socialist" countries since your taxes buys you and your family a lot more.
> Non-us citizen nor lawyer, but doesn't a pardon require a conviction?

No, Nixon wasn't convicted either. He received a pardon nonetheless. Accepting a pardon implies though an admission of guilt.

> Does _anything_ obligates the President to pardon anyone?

AFAIK, not in the strict sense of the word. In the looser sense, public opinion.

> And why would those points you listed invalidate a pardon?

It would at most, because it influences public opinion. But technically, all those are reasons, why there is a pardon.
The law may say he is guilty, but there might be overruling concerns at hand.
> What an ugly, unintuitive language.

And then you compare it to C++???
I had the same thought. Note the OP is also the author: so how do you respond, u/nireyal?

I'm guessing you get this a lot.
I thought about that but passed because I didn't feel like telling all my browsers to trust that new CA. Yes, that's incredibly lazy.

I bought a real domain name, told my UBNT USG that was the domain for my network, set up the dns servers to use digital ocean, used jetstack's cert-manager [0] to acquire the a wildcart cert using DNS01 instead of HTTP01, and use kubed [1] to synchronize the TLS cert across namespaces. One key thing to consider is that you really should ensure that you use the staging let's encrypt server to test out issuance and see your browser complain about warnings before you switch to production let's encrypt.

Honestly, I don't mind that the cert requests for my domain show up in a CT log.

People who say that Nvidia "gonna destroy ARM" know nothing about Nvidia. All their history Nvidia live on lock-in integrations and for profiting from that they need ARM alive and thriving. A lot of open source folks might hate it, but Nvidia is R&D heavy company. Every year they come up with many new proprietary technologies that help them to keep perceived leadership and also keeps everyone locked-in into their tech.

All these technologies are intentionally built to make them hard to copy for competitors and easy to protect with patent encumbrance, but on the bright side technologies that actually prove to be useful slowly turn into open industry standards. So basically Nvidia invest a lot in niche features and then recoup the costs using their top-notch marketing.

IMHO what people missing about ARM is that on mobile market there are already companies with worse lock-in who don't tend to share their hardware innovations with others at all, e.g Apple. And high-end ARM SOCs market would only benefit if someone finally gonna compete with Apple on more than just marketing.

> React hooks are a mess, or at least code based around it tends to be.

I've read a lot warnings about the pitfalls, and about hooks not doing what you think they are doing, but honestly, I haven't experience any of that, maybe because my use cases are so close to the documented ones, that I don't need to stretch the concept, and it just works as intended for me.

Could it be, that as with many other programming patterns, some developers are using it as a silver bullet, and trying to solve everything with hooks?

Otherwise I'm failing to understand, it would be useful to see examples as the mentioned above.
Legislation that is responsive can inadvertently create or reinforce monopolies because of the regulatory moat that is created, making it economically infeasible to create competition without already being of equal stature.
It has always been a black box. Not a single one of the people I've worked with over the past four or five years could understand or explain even a fraction of React's internals. Reading the source is a massive undertaking. Of course not every dev has to know the the tools inside out, but it was not unusual to discuss the inner workings of Backbone / MooTools / jQuery / etc back in their day and I think that made all the difference. We have Preact, Riot, Svelte and many other options that are much more accessible, pick one for your next project :)
The true beauty of SpaceX is that they've made landing their boosters boring (almost). This makes their competitors throwing them away seem stupid.

It also shows how clever it was to livestream so much of what they do. So many people have seen a rocket booster land. Children today will hear that ULA doesn't land their boosters and ask "why not?".
If you are fine with Facebook then Oculus Quest is the sweet spot at the moment. It does not have photorealistic rendering like PC-based VR but it is self-contained, does not need a PC but can be connected to a PC to play PCVR titles, has solid library on its own and being wireless is huge advantage. There are strong rumours that they will announce new Quest model on September 16th at base price of 299$ - but do not quote me on that.

I'd avoid PSVR, it is obsolete in 2020.
Ketosis exists. You didn’t just lose 20kg of water and glycogen. In the beginning you probably did though.

My point is that everything you did is possible with a regular diet. You can lose weight, improve blood numbers, gain muscle/lose fat at same time, etc. with a regular diet.
To be fair no law is completely enforced. Even if there is no discretion on the part of law enforcement, they still have limited resources and have to prioritize enforcement in certain areas.

I do take your point though. It is easy for legislators to pass laws against all manner of things because they know that the police won't be patrolling their neighborhoods enforcing them.
No problem, I see you had to be blunt. And thanks for your insightful comment!

I attended a talk in the UK at Google Campus in London by Eric Schmidt. At the end of the talk there was some Q&A and one very apparently angry and frustrated member of the audience asked something along the lines of 'Do you think it's fair for Google and other big American Tech firms to keep buying up innovative and valuable British and European companies!?' Eric Schmidt immediately replied 'Well if you don't want us to buy them, then don't sell them!'

It seems we're yet to learn that there's a possibility to go all the way.
