But afaiu, with state living outside of react, components have to be updated by hand? Or at least have state to be duplicated in them. I mean, if a control/table gets a mutating event, you have to update both outside state and internal setState({input}) as well, otherwise input wouldn’t appear. And when outside state changes by itself, there should be a way to forceUpdate() with props or maybe a direct setState(). Am I right? At least MobX does exactly that behind its fancy object properties. I mean, I’m not saying react is restrictive, it’s just tedious and doesn’t even try to help if you claim ownership over your state.

you have to be careful to not re-render components unnecessarily in performance critical situations where you're rendering a lot of stuff

Interestingly mithril’s author, the library that I use in place of react, suggested that for humongous doms it’s better to split it into sub-apps. In short, you make a shallow component that mounts another entire “app” into its div on its mount, so that updates do not propagate downwards (the main app simply doesn’t know about subapps). Otoh, events propagate as expected due to regular dom. Personally I find mithril’s approach more outside-state compatible, if you don’t do funny tricks with event bubbling. If you’re not familiar with it, it’s the same hyperscript/vdom, but re-render()s everything after any event related to dom it controls, unless you tell it not to in a handler. That is fully out-of-your-way approach compatible with anything. Animations, jquery components, you name it. I don’t get why people choose react, which seems to be the opposite of that. What do you think I’m missing here?

And thanks for your time and the expanded reply!

Edit: frankly, I wouldn’t even bother with react and would just use what fits, but its presence is overwhelming in a sense of both community and job options. If there is a way to use it without abstraction pain, I’d like to understand it.
Someone has already linked to it being posted on Gab. What people are really upset about is that they can't use Youtube's technological prowess, audience reach and outlet legitimacy to promote their ideas. When someone sees:

"You can't find it on Youtube, but it's hosted on Gab",

The listener draws enough conclusions about the media and it's intended audience for it to be dead on arrival.
That’s misinformation.

Antibody drop off is supposed to happen, it’s different than reduced vaccine effectiveness. Childhood vaccination for measles for example provides near lifetime protection via the adaptive immune systems: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_B_cell Which cuts days from how quickly the body can respond to infections.

When people of similar age and health with and without vaccination die at similar rates then you can say their ineffective. There is a short term boost from antibodies after an infection or vaccination, but they don’t prevent infection they just reduce infections to the point where we don’t notice.
> Are you sure this isn't just a problem in your organization?

I'm really struggling to understand the kind of confusion that would be necessary in order for this question to make sense.

Why do you suspect that this might be a problem "in [my] organization"? How could it even be? When I do a random walk through projects on the weekend, and my sights land on one where `npm install` ends up failing because GitHub is returning 404 for a dependency, what does how things are done in my organization have to do with that?

I get the dreadful feeling that despite my saying "[That] means nothing if it's not my project", you're unable to understand the scope of the discussion. When people caution their loved ones about the risk of being the victim of a drunk driving accident on New Years Eve, it doesn't suffice to say, "I won't drink and drive, so that means I won't be involved a drunk driving accident." The way we interact with the whole rest of the world and the way it interacts with us is what's important. I'm not concerned about projects under my control failing.

> non-reproducibility due to missing lockfiles is just not an issue

Why do you think that's what we're talking about? That's not what we're talking about. (I didn't even say anything about lockfiles until you brought it up.) You're not seeing the problem, because you're insisting on trying to understand it through a peephole.
The ceo of flexport rented a boat and toured the area and reported on issues people saw and reported to him. Very informative.

The study says exactly what the GP wrote and that you discounted. Read the first sentence of the Findings section.

"At the country-level, there appears to be no discernable relationship between percentage of population fully vaccinated and new COVID-19 cases in the last 7 days."
Not at the margin, no. If you can solve a problem by clicking a button, why the hell would you spend more time doing it any other way? Some sort of principle? Seems poorly justified.
Ehhh, not all of us despise Go.

Yes, chess masters at the top actually have groups of coaches (if they're preparing for an important match). Sometimes up to 5-10 people. Though it might not be so much coaches as "preparation team" - one of them might be the lead coach, one responsible for openings, one responsible for mental game, etc etc.

Novel writing is more subjective - if it were a clearly competitive endeavor with objective rules, I'm sure that the top performers would have coaches as well.
Also as a way to promote Typescript, since VSCode has great Typescript support, which is also something by Microsoft.
Between PKD's "If you find this world bad, you should see some of the others" talk (https://youtu.be/Q7SxTm_LQW4) predicted the plot of The Matrix back in 1977, and his letters in "Exegesis," his secret to world building was based on remembering it from visions.

I don't like his writing, but I do like his ideas. (I even wrote a song about it: https://soundcloud.com/n-gram-music/exegesis )
I felt that way (using Elixir) until I truly took some time to dive in and understand Erlang types, especially `binary`.

I think the point is that there's plenty of older "non-connected" vehicles, but they're not EVs. If you want an EV it will have to be a newer one.

(Obviously I'm excluding all the non-street-legal "EVs" like golf carts and the like, as well as the truly antique and rare EVs that did exist around a century ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Electric_vehicles_int... )
Let's not forget the media. Renting a boat and talking to people at the port to see what's going on should be right up an investigative journalist's alley. The Silicon Valley guy is doing the job of not just one power center, but two.
>VS has no place anymore.

That's exaggeration at best.

VS with extensions like Roslynator make C# development really good.

VS Code is nice, but I always felt like VS had significantly more reliable Intellisense than VS Code (for C#).

but I wish VS (real, not 4Mac) worked on Linux.

I have issues as well, each implementation (SDL/Jack/Pulse) is completely different, in some the shaders break completely, some don't respond to shortcuts or don't show the menus... it's a mess and the funny thing is that these are the same issues I had 10 years ago. The first thing that they have to fix is that each client works the same way.
My paranoid takeaway from this: you need to create big drama every time Microsoft does something like this. This won't be sustainable in the long run.
Not sure where you're getting your data but here's some data for you: http://www.bccdc.ca/Health-Info-Site/Documents/COVID_sitrep/...

Over the past month, fully vaccinated individuals accounted for 29% of cases and 19% of
hospitalizations (In British Columbia, Canada).

We have ~75% of the population vaccinated. So 25% of the people account for 71% of the cases and the case rate amongst vaccinated is significantly lower. What you really want to think about is what that says about the R number difference between those populations because our R is hovering around 1 so the vaccine is making a huge difference.
well with the purchase of github they can basically kill atom? and sublime text is/was niche. I have it, but it was still more or less a niche editor.
Have you ever smelled a Harbor Freight store before prop 65 and after? The difference is night and day.
Doesn't seem like a bug indicative of being beta.

The bug could obviously be fixed by looping back to 0, but the correctness is not the important part.

Though, reporting such an issue does not seem to be possible, hmm :(
Surely superior judges make the decisions relating to inferior judges? It’s hard to believe judges at the same level in the hierarchy are making those decisions for themselves in any capacity.
You can't properly understand something if you can't question it. When you elevate any idea to unquestionable capital-T Truth, you blind yourself to the actual truth. You break the only mechanism we've ever discovered for figuring out how the world actually works. Censorship of anything is the enemy of human progress and always has been.
Wow, I didn’t know you were the arbiter of whether it’s acceptable or not for YouTube to do something. Very impressive.
When I was a commuter, I saw private cars with plate scanners sweeping through the parking lots at the train station, they are hoping to collect a reward for finding someone in the system. It's upsetting, but I don't see how we could unroll this at this point.
“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away.”

I just tried this and it's pretty nice. It's still not perfect but it's getting there.

I ran the theme song from the credits of Cyberpunk 2077 and the resulting vocal has tiny bits of instrumental elements in it every now and then but in parts it's perfect.

That song turned out to be a pretty good benchmark (plus I kinda wanted the vocals anyway), because it has a lot of reverb, stereo imaging trickery and various other effects on the instruments and the vocal. The instrumental didn't really come out too well, sadly. But the vocal is very usable! The Deezer one was noticeably worse on the vocals but to be honest even that one was amazing to see in action.

Compared to an AI like this the way people used to sweat blood to try to get something usable for a remix or a sample out of a song seems so archaic.

I might reinstall my DAW and instruments and play around with the extracted vocals now. :)
Yahoo! and MSFT tried doing same, selling Bing search ads on Yahoo ad exchange. Didn't work well and can't scale it.
And these are Google innovation why should they not use it.

Is it fair to ask some other ad exchanges to run ads on NYTimes or CNN, Fox news?
Actually, it was a chief job of the jester to cross the line when other members of the court could not. Jesters, as all court members, had a natural fear of execution, but probably not any higher than any of the other courtiers.

It's worse than that. I think they save the hashes on Ethereum. So once the hash is stored then it's there forever.
Taleb made his F-U money by taking a position that very much went against the grain of most investors. He wasn't one of those people that go on TV every 6 months and say a depression is coming, but have very little skin in the game.

If he doesn't take a position here, it may just be because he can't figure the timing of when it will fall, not because he doesn't believe it will fall.
Yep. Same applies to shootings. I've recently changed my ethnicity in an effort to gain some of the special privileges that come with it.
This is very bad for the rest of the world, and also for the US, since all the empty containers are stacking up there, then there aren't any empty containers available in China or anywhere else for exporters, so even getting your hands on an empty container can be very difficult or almost impossible, or they cost 2-3x more than usually.
The Verge has an article about this.[0]

>The Verge understands that the decision to remove the functionality from .NET 6 was made by Julia Liuson, the head of Microsoft’s developer division. Sources describe the move as a business-led decision, and it’s clear the company thought it would fly under the radar and not generate a backlash. Engineers at Microsoft that have worked on .NET for years with the open source community feel betrayed and fear the decision will have lasting effects on Microsoft’s open source efforts.

That is that and it is their service and Venmo IS also PayPal Inc. which is a private company and can refuse service to ANYONE.

This is the reason to use cryptocurrencies in your OWN wallets and NOT using Venmo / PayPal's service due to the Not your keys, Not your coins rule.

When will they learn that these services will NOT change?
When I advertise to consumers, it is not important to me that they believe vaccination against COVID-19 is good or not.

I really struggle to think of any company for which it is important that their customers are not sceptical of vaccinations? Maybe airlines and hotels.

Since I can’t see how any company would want to reject customers for making certain decisions about their health or not, it appears to me that it rather is forces within Google, Facebook, and Twitter that do not want any voice critical of their line to be shown. For this reason they (shadow)ban people expressing forbidden or politically incorrect worldviews.

The really ironic thing is that it is tied in with a more environmentally friendly car. Want to avoid being spied on? Then you need to use dirty fossil fuels.

I disagree, and so it's not likely "certain".

I do think that nitpicking over formatting is rather unproductive and rude, though. And it had wasted considerably more space than a format that you happen to dislike, but that others are fine with.

Like I said, I don't care. If you do, then that's on you.
The OP has nothing to do with "critical mass" events, so your comment seems like nothing more than a non sequitur.

Man this has come a long way since GEISS.EXE for MSDOS+VGA (320x200x256)... it didn't even synchronize, but it was 1988 and I was so stoned that it appeared to be in sync.

This is more misdirection. By no means am I arguing that if you're doing a thousand stupid things and then start checking in a copy of your dependencies, that you're magically good. _Yes_ you're still gonna need to sort yourself out re the 999 other dumb things.
Here is the full quote from the article:

"The study shows that people who become infected with the Delta variant are less likely to pass the virus to their close contacts if they have already had a COVID-19 vaccine than if they haven’t1. But that protective effect is relatively small, and dwindles alarmingly at three months after the receipt of the second shot. "
You can hide them like any other post, so I don’t see that they are as impactful to user experience as most other ads, which require third party browser extensions and/or DNS level blocking. On balance, I think HN does ads “right” and the only way I think they could be improved is with explicit labeling indicating that they are sponsored, unlike user-submitted posts.

Being entirely anti-ad is an acceptable position to hold, and I don’t really disagree, though it feels a bit of a cheap shot to single out HN like this.

I don't understand the first item, it seems unlike the others.

As I understand it, the reason you're not supposed to do what Jeff did, is because of exactly what you say in the next sentence - favoritism and bias, that undermines morale and leads to a dysfunctional team and good people leaving.

That first paragraph sounds to me like you are not connecting the affair with the "assholeness" and you think it's bad he got fired. Which doesn't go with everything else you write.

If your point is that they waited too long to do the right thing, well, that doesn't seem like systemic evil to me, even if there is other proof they aren't a "good company". I wouldn't put it in the same category of all the rest of the stuff you describe.

Everybody knows about the allegation that TJs wouldn't let people wear BLM apparel, right?
There's a long list of serious health issues currently.

For example, should Youtube start banning all modeling videos because is taking the life of young teeneagers with eating disorders?

What about smoking, drinking and illegal drugs on musical videos by very, very popular singers? Should Youtube start banning them too?

As far as I know, the example issues are taking way more lives than the current ONE. It's a double standard just to comply with the status quo.

Don't mess with art, it's just art, we all agree.

Note that it's 68% who have some kind of job and 50% who have full time employment.

Well, I think, considering that German is pretty much a must in Germany and that it must be an incredibly hard language to learn for people from Syria, it seems like a relative success.

Of course, 32% being unemployed is still very high, but that may be expected under the circumstances.
You're looking at presented cases and hospitalizations - a fraction of a fraction of total covid infections. There's no way this accurately reflects R0 (assuming that's what you're talking about - sorry if I'm wrong!). And determining the impact vaccines have on R0 is nearly impossible - there's too many unknown unknowns that would confound it.

For example, if a flu vaccine was administered at the end of a seasonal peak, we'd think the vaccine caused the dropoff because we don't understand seasonality.
