I swear, folks and their JSX have me convinced they have Stockholm Syndrome. HTML+CSS in JS was always a pragmatic choice back in 2015, never the most elegant or most maintainable one.

It's like the folks who refused to use anything but the DOM APIs when JQuery was sitting right there. Or who keep on using onclick handlers on their div tags instead of using perfectly good HTML tags like:

<a>
<button>
<input type="submit">
<details>

JSX was never the best of any web development world. It was at best the least worst option at the time. We have better ones now.
To be pedantic, you're proposing that practice studying should result in improved exam scores, which doesn't seem to follow as well as you're proposing.

Practice shooting basketballs leads to better results at shooting basketballs.

Practice playing piano leads to better results at playing piano.

Practice studying leads to better results at studying.

Practice scoring well on exams leads to better results at scoring well on exams.

That's how the parallels work. And it's clear true: however one defines studying, it gets easier as one practices it. It might or might not be effective in improve exam scores, for many reasons, but it definitely improves studying itself.

Not a flight buff, but...

- Jet fuel from NYC to LAX seems to cost ~$10k.[1]

- You pay a pilot $50 / hour salary. (+100% more with benefits?)[2]

- Double all of that for a bunch of random things I can't think of (airport fees?)

My napkin math seems to indicate this couldn't possibly cost Boeing more than $10-20k? Pretty small potatoes to such a large company.

I've heard the term "virtual dom" for years. This article made me want to understand. It gives this example for explaining "what is a virtual dom?"

function HelloMessage(props) {
return (
<div className="greeting">
Hello {props.name}
</div>
);
}

And that returns "an object representing how the page should now look"

Aren't we developers here. How about an object type.
I assume it's a DocumentFragment. Is that correct?

Then it talks in broad (i.e. useless) terms about using this object.

So my next question is: what's exactly is wrong with using a DocumentFragment to just replace that part of the DOM? For example:

let frag = renderMyModel();

if (destElt.firstElementChild) {
destElt.replaceChild (frag, destElt.firstElementChild);
} else {
destElt.appendChild (frag);
}

I do this with a massive DOM tree and rendering is like instant.

> while in some like learning a foreign language or music or art it's not

You absolutely must be joking.

This tells me that you have never learned a foreign language to a high level of proficiency, and that you know very little about art.

Regarding the rest of your post, talent certainly exists, and things like motivation and talent are better predictors of success than IQ, but IQ tests don’t claim to predict success (even though IQ scores and success might be mildly correlated).

As I mentioned in another reply (please read it), folks seem to think that IQ tests claim to predict success. They don’t. It’s an unfair onus to put on IQ tests.
It is - but that's the specific hardness that you want to capture and cover with your tests. Downstream logic changing and the application being unaware of it is one of the two major dangers these sorts of tests exist to protect against.

> Sprawl, in a sprawling country, is inevitable.

The communities listed in this page were suburbs, just not car-centric suburbs:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streetcar_suburb

Development could have continued to be denser communities around either tram lines, rail stations, or existing towns. LA's 'sprawl' started around the trolley system:

* https://la.curbed.com/2017/9/20/16340038/los-angeles-streetc...

* https://www.jstor.org/stable/26412661

Some of the original bedroom communities were based around rail stations. But those communities still had 'urban-ish' communities that one walked around, and long distance travel was rail, or horse, later car.

And I know well communities not around any dense urban area, as I visited my grandparents' farm in Communist Europe numerous times when I was young: my aunts/uncles had cars back in the Old Country, but my grand parents still used horses for a lot of work and even going into town.

A random farm, in a rural area, in a sprawling country is not the same planned development on a parcel of land, which required government approval and permits. Low-density development, cul-de-sacs, restrictive zoning where residential is not with-in waling distance of commercial/industrial were all policy choices. There was nothing inevitable about it. Certainly in the 1940s and 50s maybe folks didn't know any better, but that's harder to say by the 1970s and 80s.

(Parenthetically, originally people used to live in towns and commute to their farms: living right on the farm was a later development (relatively speaking).)

How is this supposed to be good faith advice? The mentally disabled person may earn $15/h as a janitor or $25/h in some high productivity job that would usually pay $60/h and requires a college education but also has some accomodations for their disability. Mental disability isn't linear and it isn't a discrete yes or no either.

It's like everyone here is taking some extreme edge case as the baseline for mental disability where it is immediately obvious that they can throw them into the "too dumb" bucket.
The article already has a summary. What both summaries miss is the fact that one of the authors was appointed by Steve Jobs himself to study Apple’s ways and then offer the learnings as a curriculum to Apple employees.
The reviews are fake.
A few years ago I designed a product like this, but more focused on sales calls. We called it DiscoveryCall.ai and and my friend built a proto-type. It was cool, but the sales cycle was something I didn't want to tackle.

A few ideas & learnings if they can help.

1. If you focus on a specific domain of conversation, you can pull conversation data and "summary" into a more valuable data structure. For sales it might be identifying the Decision Maker, budget or launch date. Project meetings will have budgets, timelines, approvers etc as well.

2. My thesis was that getting data into a structured format was more interesting than summary. Sales people need to enter their data into Salesforce. Sales people hate doing this and do it poorly. It's valuable if an application can process the recorded conversation into a completed SFDC record/object.

3. It might be possible to rely on the user to prompt the application correctly in the conversation. In a project management scenario, the user might want to collect launch_date as a field. The user would ask, "When is the launch date?"

The response might be, "I don't know, we're thinking about March or maybe April or even May."

The user of the application can then repeat. "OK, let's pencil in the launch_date for April 15th."

During onboarding or setup for this type of conversation and data extraction, the user would set these keywords like "Pencil In" to then save the date mentioned in the conversation.

Anyways, that's what I remember. If any of that is interested or you want to see any old notes and wireframes, hit my email.

> elevated for blacks because the commit more crime

True perhaps, but very misleading. Consider that blacks are far more likely to end up in jail (and for longer) for the same crime a white person commits. Consider that ending up in jail and with a criminal record puts someone in a situation where they're more likely to commit crimes in the future. Sounds to me like racial bias is creating a higher likelihood of the police encounters that may result in shootings occurring.

> He had one short story in particular where one citizen would be called in front of Multivac and, based on their answers to Multivac's questions, Multivac would (accurately) infer who the winner of the presidential election should be, obviating the need for expensive elections to be run.

Everyone is of course entitled to their own opinion but my interpretation of Franchise is that the depicted government is a dictatorship. I would say the the end of the story seems pretty sarcastic:

> Suddenly, Norman Muller felt proud. It was on him now in full strength. He was proud.

> In this imperfect world, the sovereign citizens of the first and greatest Electronic Democracy had, through Norman Muller (through him!) exercised once again its free, untrammeled franchise.

Besides, it's obvious that the process is not transparent, denies its citizens their free will by treating them as statistically predictable objects, and requires an amount of personal data that can only be provided by a surveillance state.

>By that logic, if you're looking at life and upset the judge, you should be let go?

This makes no sense at all. You can't impose much punishment past life; I was never proposing SUBTRACTING time for offending the judge just not adding it. I'm baffled by your logic. I was comparing the above offered differences of life to 10 years, which the difference of the two is life minus 10.

>It's based on the moral that people who made a mistake and regret it (or at least plea to change) are less bad than people who did something wrong and continue to refuse to even accept it being something wrong.

The law isn't about bad and good though. Growing a pot plant could possibly be "not bad" but still be illegal. Selling a prescription opiate in some circumstances may be "bad" but legal. The law is in essence a description of punishments for behaviors that may or may not have objective connection to good or bad. Also I reject the thesis that 10 years versus something more must make them more "good" and in fact hypothesize it may have the opposite effect.

IMO the judge should be objective purveyors of the law. Your 1A opinion to whether your breaking of the law was good or bad should be irrelevent to senencing. If somebody says "fuck the law and I'd be happy to do it again" even regarding events of horrible violence IMO should be first amendment protected speech free from additional punishment. Of course these are mere opinions, and not to suggest yours is wrong.
My contract states that I am expected to use my full work time with my employer and can't have another job. I think that this is a pretty common clause. It's not just about the hours but more the focus and energy.
I said "most people" and "most things" because yeah, some people really do have a low level of general intelligence and will struggle. I know a social worker whose job for a very long time was finding employment for people with IQs in the 50s, and they really struggled with a lot of things. There is a lot of research into IQ demonstrating that some kind of underlying general intelligence probably does exist.

The point of my post was not to deny this, but to assert that what we perceive as intelligence in our day-to-day lives might not be something as deep as that.

For the vast majority of threat models, having someone you have a little bit of rapport with watch your locked computer is perfectly adequate. Realistically the bigger threat is someone stealing the laptop to sell, not as part of some targeted assault on your security.

For that not to be adequate, your threat model needs to include field agents establishing a false sense of trust through some relationship, then leveraging that into an attack physical security. At some point you're getting really close to the "It's easier to bribe/blackmail/kidnap you" territory.

The issue is once you buy a monitor for your work, they're then getting to rent it for free. If you need something to do your job better than they need to pay for it. You hurt yourself (financially) and you are contributing to a workplace culture where employees buy what they need. It's not just a monitor you're paying for!

To be clear, I am not judging you. You did what was good for you and took the path of least resistance, as we all do many times a day. I am just trying to answer your question of "who cares?" We should all care a lot about this!

I'm an in-house producer at a tech company. I own a lot of film and audio equipment. I made it very clear in my initial negotiation that my gear was to be used solely at my discretion that and within 12mo we will fully transition off of it. I also used it to negotiate a slightly higher salary. It would've been easier to just give it away, but then why would they ever stop? I could've easily slipped into a position where they just use all my film equipment rent free and then I am on the hook to replace it as it breaks at a faster rate. That's not right without proper compensation.
Is it surprisingly? Value is not determined by frequency of use, but by the qualitative difference: if gp doesn't use it at all, would anything of value be lost?

He's a thought experiment: imagine a device that changes the scent of the air I breathe to something I find pleasant. I could use this device all day everyday for free (or on the cheap), but I will not pay $20/mo for it. Losing access to the features really isn't worth that much. On the flip side, many people pay thousands of dollars to rent machines that helps them breathe, even if that adds up to total of less than an hour of their lives - which is nor much.
That's assuming the average internet user types a url into their address bar instead of using their browser's "new tab page" with recent sites (all probably HTTPS) and finding non-history pages through a search engine that will be HTTPS by default and point mostly to HTTPS endpoints.

So yes, you can catch a subset of users who type new urls into their address bar, but that's a minority of people a minority of the time.

I think it sucks for prototyping too if your prototype is constantly evolving. I have a WIP with about 100 files in it that I've been aggressively evolving over the past year, and I already want to rewrite everything in something statically typed, because any kind of change became pain in the ass.

Here's a write-up from a relatively small/personal perspective

https://blog.qwertyforce.dev/posts/similar_image_search
I'll say it again since you edited your previous message to reply to the message following it, I wasn't arguing about who should be in power, or placing my chips in any direction. I was plainly stating that people will have different reasons for supporting the class in power vs supporting outside of that class.

Parent comment was stating that people who support the minority are using the same fallacious reasoning those who support the majority do and that is not true.

In the event the power changes, the people who supported the previous majority class might be the same or use the same reasoning but that has nothing to do with how both groups reason separately.

As an example, imagine it's The Great Depression, The Majority would say something like "Wow I really wish we had more food, I'm going to vote for this candidate who says that we'll get more food". In this instance the Majority is not tied to the ruling class, do you see how implying everyone is knee-jerk reacting is misleading?
