React actually does more than "one thing", and it does those things quite well, actually: First, it provides a relatively performant diffing mechanism that gives a happy medium between manual diffing and templating; it also provides reusable components that are easy to make, easy to maintain and are able to easily hold local data and have an ergonomic API; finally it also provides a sane of of passing data between layers.

Other frameworks have adopted some of those concepts in different ways, and it works quite well. Other technologies have other ways of solving the same problems, and they also work! Of course, it is absolutely not perfect and doesn't solve "all problems", but that's how mature technologies generally are.

Modern browsers have tried to provide a competing technology with WebComponents, but despite being native to the platform and embraced en masse not only by browser makers but by large companies, it hasn't taken off like React. Please take a time to reflect as to why something that is "there" isn't as widely used as something that requires a 50kb library to even start. And no, it's not a conspiracy, nor it is marketing. There are very good technical reasons for that.

About the "fans" part: please look at the mirror. You seem to be projecting a lot here. People use React and other similar libraries because it gets the job done. A lot of your posts seem to be about competing technologies, or are anti-Apple, or anti-something. Criticism is perfectly fine, but you're the one making hating something part of your identity and the projection is blurring your ability to empathise with what others are saying.

I don't understand why us humans must necessarily have such a wide and varied diet compared to other mammals. Is there anything in our DNA, gut bacteria, biology etc. that requires this?

And do we really have to change our diet as we get older? Besides being reared by their mother in the earliest part of their lives, do other mammals change their diet as they get older?

So far I've seen three variants of the "he just doesn't understand" argument in comments, including the currently top rated comment, and the day is still young. I bet there will be more, because it has become crypto advocates' favorite tactic to negate real argument. Unfortunately, it's an appeal to (false) authority. Why should anyone believe that the crypto advocate - even without considering the taint of self interest - knows more about the subject than someone like Nick Weaver or David Rosenthal who has a decades long record of actually solving closely related problems? At best, with only a few exceptions, the advocate is a relatively new programmer in a completely different specialty. Often they're not even technical at all. Where's this authority that's supposed to override rational arguments (even if those could be countered)? At least people like those I've named don't rely on authority and take the time to provide real discussion-worthy points as well.

This is supposed to be a rational reality-based community. There should be zero tolerance for the "just doesn't understand" trope, especially when someone doesn't even identify (let alone explain) what it is that their target doesn't understand. It's blithe dismissal, not curious conversation, and at least nominally (according to the guidelines) not what the site is supposed to be about.
> I'm rather mistrustful of people that are this forthy about being against a new technology. If it really is that devoid of merit it'll die on its own.

And in the mean time it's chewing through energy and uselessly adding carbon to the atmosphere. Blockchain's use case is generally the conditions of needing both (a) an append-only log and (b) being distributed/decentralized. I don't think there are that many places where it'd be of use.

I try to raise awareness of NIST's Blockchain Technology Overview, which is a good explainer:

* https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/nistir/8202/final

See especially Figure 6 ("p. 42", 53 of the PDF), which is a flow chart to help you decide on whether blockchain may match one's use case. Extracted:

* https://imgur.com/a/RlUj9Ed

But we unfortunately now also have blockchain tied together with the notion of "money", and so folks are going bonkers over it (à la tulips and Beanie Babies).

An idea can take a long time before people stop practicing it, during which does a lot of damage: it's been 70 years and we're still stuck with car-centric/dependent suburbs.
I too believe it has to have environmental causes. I saw a phenomenal documentary a few years ago that went into great detail of how especially pesticides and flame retardants are the most likely cause.

I think getting incredibly angry about those things, to the point that the usual type of rational HN discussion cannot happen, is idiotic. Discussing crypto here has become like discussing US politics. It's just not possible because everything is described in black and white/good and evil terms. Claiming that getting rid of crypto will lead to the resolution of national and international crises is stupid.

This is a really interesting, simple and clever study design and I look forward to reading it. That said, I think there is strong evidence for selection against intelligence at genetic level.

neither I nor any of the people I work with have ANY of those issues with Teams, so I am going to have to blame an inadequate network or overzealous QoS somewhere causing a lot of that.

updates: users have shown Microsoft time and time again, that unless forced, users simply will not update their computers. the result was that we had an internet teeming with unpatched Windows systems getting very bad worms when the vulnerability was patched 6-months prior. everyone, including powerful governments, blamed Microsoft when the users were at fault. so now Microsoft forces updates, because we won't do it unless we are forced, and now everyone blames Microsoft. we put them in a corner, and now we deal with our complacency. so, we blame Microsoft when we don't do the right thing, and we blame Microsoft when they force us. genius.

I can understand the theoretical arguments for sum types and closed enums, but I have never once been bitten in practice by this issue.

I agree with you. There is something about Salesforce in particular I feel people don't trust to be a good steward of acquired products.

I don't feel it's deserved even though I worked for an acquired company that certainly did fail because of their leadership—I think we were the exception though. For Mulesoft, Tableau, Quip: I don't think it's clear these would be successful companies on their own.

They paid a ton of money for Slack and need to protect that investment.

Is there a clear example of Salesforce failing at an acquisition? Or do people see the examples I gave above differently than I do?

I really like that comparison with the gold to raw ore ratios as a frame of reference, but isn't mining hashes in general just a completely arbitrary selection for a definition of work and wouldn't harnessing some more useful proveable activity tied to a lottery system be better ?

Even all the Miners locking cash in a single account with a constant reward function could be put to some real use and still generate the same return outcome of new minted coin to investment/work; just with fewer steps and without all the electric overhead.
It's what's on the horizon that matters. Interest rates look like they're coming off the floor, and that will have an effect on those kinds of investments. When rates were zero it made a lot of sense to have a punt on VC. Once they come off zero they might not be back for a long time.

Starting a new project and trying to decide between Go and F# of all things. Go seems fast and very widely used which means resources and help is widely available and it’ll be easier to find contributors.
Meanwhile coming from the C# world at my job I really like the syntax of F# from what I’ve seen so far. The type system seems incredibly expressive in a way Go’s isn’t, access to C# libraries means I can do pretty much anything I’ll need to, and I enjoy FP paradigms even though I’m not looking for full FP (I generally like loops and escape hatches from FP if I need to do something specific).
What’s your experience with F#? I’m worried about support and finding other people familiar with the language, not a huge fan of nuget, and I prefer to use VSCode but C# has been impossible to program in VSCode imo.

Who Is Thinking About Open Source Firmware?
Food safety in processed foods in the USA is a major issue, and the fact is, preventing microbial contamination in the pipeline leading from raw ingredients to final product is an expensive proposition. To have any chance of catching problems before they hit the public, you really need an onsite QA lab capable of doing microbial contamination tests (and heavy metal contamination tests) at every step of the process.

In-house labs are notoriously subject to corporate pressure to pass product through (consider the expense of having to toss an entire production run), and this leads to the promotion of those who don't back up production by waving red flags when product fails tests.

One solution is aggressive testing and auditing by the FDA, i.e. swooping in and grabbing samples of product, but this is where political pressure to deregulate industries comes into play, and again, anyone at the FDA promoting this approach won't get promoted up the government ladder.

Another solution might be legislation requiring independent accredited labs to be involved in the testing process, but again you can have massive problems here as the labs that pass questionable product are the ones who get their contracts renewed. It's probably the best option - but my advice is to just avoid highly processed foods as much as possible.

> A few years ago people were so entrenched in their object-oriented upbringing that sum types were considered "weird functional stuff"

A step further: I was hearing talk of enums being a code smell and that they should all be replaced with interfaces as they represented alternative implementations and you might want to be more extensible or insert a mock for testing

As an aside, tagged unions weren't a big deal to me (though I thought it neat to merge tagged unions with enum constants) but what blew me away was when I learned they could have methods and implement traits. Would love it if Rust took it a step further and made the variants types. There are cases were id like to have builder methods on variants. The closest I can get is having an explicit struct and implementing From to the enum. Also wish there was variant visibility so I wouldn't have to wrap my enums in structs to hide the variants.

Charging stations vary in sizes. I've seen some really small ones. But I've also seen really large units.

But the issue so much the size of the units, it's that the streets of the UK aren't exactly well designed in the first place. And now they're adding extra things which were never met to be there in the first place. It's not the units that need work, it's the british cities that are footpaths or varying sizes next ot each other, not enough room to drive and park. Many streets it's basically one way traffic because there is only enough room for one car at a time.

Hardly.

Founders who have been around a long time know the game. Founders are disposable soldiers , VCs are Lieutenants and GPs/Asset Owners are Generals.

It's that simple. And it's okay. The BS part is when Lieutenants feel the need to conceal the truth or make motivational posts such as the OP .

The absolute worst is when a soldier manages to be decorated in battle...all the Lieutenants become absolute fangirls and ask him for autographs and pictures whereas they treat other soldiers like crap. Of course such behavior is in the hope to impress the Generals.

My hope this will blow up a bit so we get more information (it's in the public's best interest to know more). This is the way all "conspiracy theories" should go, at least those with credible theories to test.
