>one can't dictate the markup exactly the way one wants because it has to be recognizable to the virtual dom as well

I'm not sure what you mean. On the opposite, with React, you specify exactly the DOM (or UIView) tree you want to get.

You will build different components for React web and React Native, there's no common ground between them. The platforms are too different.
I'm aware of these. But React gets all of the attention despite its warts like local component state or encouraging singletons for Flux.

Yes it does, because your decision has consequences for those around you that may include killing them. We have a history going back hundreds and hundreds of years that effectively says we as a society will reduce your freedom to whatever the hell you want to do if the consequences of it kill other people.

That's why "life, liberty, and happiness" is in the order that it is. Life before liberty before happiness.

Understand that some people can not get the vaccine. They are protected if everyone who can get the vaccine gets it. Now that a bunch of healthy people are note getting the vaccines, the ones that can not get it are at serious risk of not only illness, but death.

The vast majority of society has decided that your freedom is not worth the risk to other people. There was a minor exception for religion, and few people used it so it didn't really impact public health until very recently. Now a lot of people are abusing that provision, it is having a public health impact, and that provision and your freedom of choice on the matter need to be eliminated.

First off I'm pro-vaccination. However this example doesn't really add up for me. I'm not a doctor, but if the rest of us vaccinate our kids, won't they NOT GET SICK? Hence calling it an immunization.

So if the rest of us are immunized the only people getting sick are the anti-vaxxers. For this allegory of the Car Brakes and Social Responsibility to truly be a 1-to-1 comparison of social risk with regards to pro/anti immunization he'd have to basically present the premise that everyone else who has car brakes is protected from the less informed anti-brakers.
Tell him that he has no right to make that choice for others, and while he may think he is only making that choice for his own family he is also choosing to put others at a greater risk. The braking analogy in this article is quite apt.

Prior to the measles vaccine, about 3-4 million people got measles every year. In such a world, a 0.1% mortality rate still leaves 3000-4000 people dead from an easily preventable disease. And this says nothing of the people who suffer from it but don't die. The economic costs from kids and parents getting sick and missing school and work would total in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

Even intelligent people can be narrow-minded. There is much more to a disease than its mortality rate.
So Fetch Talks #1 – Kevin Kelly Inventor of Run Beacon
I don't think you're disagreeing with the post. The author isn't arguing that "set up" isn't a verb, but that it's a phrasal verb, which should be written as two words.

This isn't a prescriptivist argument about language itself, it's an argument about a spelling convention (One which is arguably more accurately descriptive of the usage of the words.). Your dictionary link, by spelling "set up" as separate words when used as a verb, agrees with the author.

It's possible that language changes will result in "set up" becoming a fixed, atomic phrase, at which point writing it as one word would make sense. But since both"I'm going to set up the computer" and "I'm going to set the computer up" still sound perfectly natural to my ears as a native speaker, I don't think we've yet reached that point.

Any tips on what sort of people they're looking for? Particularly what technical areas they look for in a web position?

The discussions I've seen online are all related to the product engineering side of things.
The mental model is much simpler because your `render` method describes UI at any point of time. Not just the DOM, but your own components too. On the inside, any component can have its own state, but from the outside, it's not visible, and components using it don't care or know about it.

Separating `props` and `state`, component boundaries, lack of two-way binding and predictable top-down data flow make it easy to reason about where any data comes from, and how UI will change over time.

I'm looking forward to desktop UIs also being supported by something like this -- e.g. native Windows, GTK+, and Cocoa widgets. Then we'd have a true framework for writing GUI apps that can share most of their code across the whole range of platforms, which would make me literally stand up and start singing right now. Lalalalalalala!

If you coupled this with conditional stuff around what kind of form factor you're on (screen size, etc.) you could design mobile first UIs that gracefully enriched on a larger form factor. Lalalalalala!

I don't know of Facebook cares, but I WILL PAY FOR THIS! For a well-engineered modern platform that did all of the above I would pay thousands of dollars. So if the choice comes down to staying free and abandoning this effort vs. making it a profit center, please for the love of all that is holy take my money.

Really when you look at the labor costs of developing parallel UI efforts on many platforms, a cross-platform dev system that delivered a high quality native-feeling experience across every major platform could be worth at least tens of thousands of dollars to millions of people.

I have a set of Surefire EP4 silicone ear plugs I use on my motorcycle and at concerts. The nice thing about them is that they have a center plug you can add or remove. Without the center plug they significantly reduce SPLs to safe levels but you can still hear everything. You can put the plug back in when needed.

I also recommend earphones (in ear headphones). They're much like earbuds with foam earplugs. They block out sound about as well as foam earplugs but with the bonus of being able to listen to audio.
165 db LCpk is a good estimate for the muzzle blast 1 m in front of the barrel of a shotgun. However, outdoors, it's going to be closer to 140-150 measured at the shooter's head. There is a significant asymmetry in how the muzzle blast propagates.

Besides the obvious "who cares" there is another criticism here. It is not that difficult to think of that as the setup method, wherein the noun applies. That is, if you want to know what the setup is for an object, the setup method is a good place to look.

Sadly, this does mean that to set up the object, you have to execute the setup method. Which, I'll grant is odd. But seems fine.

> The claim that email makes scamming, on the level we've historically seen, easier is laughable.

Right or wrong, the assertion seems to be not that email makes the scam itself easier, but that it lessens the social impact on the scammer (making it easier to decide to be a scammer, and ignore the impact you are having on the other person).
There was a great Planet Money (NPR) podcast on this a while ago:

http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2012/12/04/166514067/episode-...

and I remember hearing another Planet Money podcast on bitcoin around the same time:

http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2011/08/24/138673630/what-is-...

and thinking "why don't the marijuana growers just store their money in bitcoin?" Of course volatility is a big issue, but that can go both ways. Marijuana dealers saving profits in bitcoin in 2012 and before would have made even more in appreciation. Dealers doing so from 2014 would have lost some of their profits (in dollar terms)

The point is, the underlying real estate was not created by anyone else (subject of course to one's preferred religion.)

Compare what a real estate developer does to what a Disney-esque media conglomerate does. The developer buys the land and constructs buildings for customers who are entitled to exactly what's in the contract, nothing more or less. I have no problem with that. Nobody took anything that wasn't legally theirs (at least not recently). If you lease the building, nobody is going to alter the contract after the fact to extend the lease for 70 more years, or kick you out before the agreed-upon term is up.

Disney, on the other hand, appropriates stories and ideas from our shared culture and erects legal walls around them. They didn't build jack shit, they just slapped on a fresh coat of paint and a stout padlock. They're cultural squatters with their own cadre of Congressmen.

Is a db meter on an iPhone really inaccurate? This recent article from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health suggests otherwise:

> for A-weighted sound level measurements three apps had mean differences within ± 2dBA of the reference measurements. For un-weighted sound level measurements three apps had mean differences within the ± 2 dB of the reference measurement. Since national standards and occupational guidelines specify that type 2 sound measurement instruments have an accuracy of ± 2dBA, some of the above-mentioned apps could potentially be used in the occupational setting

Here, it helps that the problem is more acute in children groups. It is acceptable for schools to require proof of vaccination on admission. It is also acceptable for sports clubs to do so on admission. Mixed adult/children environments are not as problematic, because adults resist better to these diseases and so the infection rate gets a lot lower.

A lot of text to say that this is a Pareto rule scenario. Cover the 20% of places where kids spend 80% of their social time and you get most of the needed protection.
I know this will be down voted, nonetheless, after reading many of these threads it is clear to me that most pro-vaxxers are horribly uneducated about the facts, and simply go around parroting others and making holier than though smug comments. If they would actually take the time to listen they would see that most so called "anti-vaxxers" are nothing of the sort. While there will of course always be the few that are extreme about it, most are simply concerned about safe delivery and over vaccination for the sake of pharmaceutical company profits. They want better oversight and safe guards. They want to spread vaccination schedules out and not have to get any that aren't absolutely necessary. If these concerns were addressed, the die-hard "anti-vaxxers" would be such a small number as not to matter for herd immunity.

React lets you take these decisions yourself.

Whether local state is practical for your team or not.

You must be living in a very different world than mine if you think that compared to its rivals (Angular, Ember, etc), React is somehow “encouraging” local state. Sure you could go more functional than that, but take a look at the mainstream frameworks and you'll see it's such a long way to go, that had React not allowed local state, it would not have gotten adoption at all.

This is true of all virtual dom libraries. There is no point of two-way binding when you have a virtual dom, and I'm not sure it even makes sense since you have to rerender the tree anyways.

So we agree, you're just separating the concept from the implementation and I'm talking about them as one.

Plain old shame should work. Think of the littering campaigns and "earth day" movements in the 80's/90's. This is the sort of thing that needs to be won over on facebook, The View, and supermarket headlines.
That position works for the "what you do in your own bedroom" arguments, but vaccines actually really are a social problem rather than a personal choice. (Disease management usually is)

Vaccines are a great example of a personal choice that does hurt other people, despite seeming like something that impacts only you.

Why? In short, because herd immunity is far more powerful than individual immunity, and protects even people who cannot be vaccinated. By choosing not to vaccinate, you chip away at herd immunity.

Actually, a couple anti-vaxxers would be OK. Herd immunity, as I said, allows for some people to safely be unvaccinated, and that is why it is powerful. The problem is when anti-vax'ing became a movement with the goal of convincing as many people as possible not to vaccinate.
The chutzpah of telling someone what not to ask.
Programmer IS a Career Path, Thank You
Totally. I think it depends on the group - especially group size. The intimidating standup I was describing was I think around 15 developers, mostly working on separate issues. It worked for them because the majority were very self-starting, skilled devs.

And I was speaking more to the general idea that OP shouldn't expect everything to bubble up to them automatically, because different people work and behave differently. Learning about that is an important aspect of being a manager.

That's only true to a point. We knew for decades that cigarette smoke is terrible for you - and referred to them as "coffin nails" as early as 1888 - but people keep starting the habit. What more education could we possibly give that smoking is bad? People get it in their head to believe and do dumb things, regardless of how reasonably or empathetically they're told that those are dumb things.

You probably can't convince hard-core antivaxxers. They are likely lost causes. At this point, probably the best we can do is to so relentlessly ridicule the position that it becomes an embarrassing opinion to hold. For example, could you imagine your neighbors learning that you were a Flat Earther? No; you'd be the block laughingstock. That's what needs to happen to the antivax delusion.
This is pretty much the way to handle it. Kids can say some amazing things to change a parents mind. Satire doesn't work worth beans, it just pushes people farther into positions they wouldn't normally hold. People are remarkably stubborn. I sometimes think the direct (less subtle or funny) satire the internet has exposed us to had contributed to the extremes.

Some sensitivity to children that cannot for proper, documented medical reasons receive the vaccine needs to be in order. I am not sure how you handle that without subjecting them to the same shame. I would guess isolate them until the outbreak ends making sure the kid knows the doctors and parents are doing what they can given the kid's condition.
Probably, but not all of it. You've got engine bearings and cylinder liners with special compounds and tight tolerances.

Vaccinations carry risks, but so does not vaccinating.

If you just want to talk percentages, what is the chance that you will have an unusual or adverse reaction to a vaccination vs. what is the chance that you will contract and have an adverse reaction to the illness?

Even on those terms it seems worth it to vaccinate against MMR. Those vaccines have been around for a long time, they are effective, and they are safe. They are certainly much safer than measles, mumps, and rubella.

It used to be that you could avoid the risk of vaccination entirely by assuming that everyone else around you would vaccinate. That's no longer a good assumption.

Plus, there is the compounding factor that by not vaccinating, these people are facilitating harm to others.

Government is all about balancing benefit and risk as a whole.
Interesting, that runs counter to the prevailing sentiment that Ruby's metaprogramming makes it great for writing DSLs. What language features do you prefer for writing DSLs?
If you want to convince skeptics to get vaccinated, being insufferably smug is probably the worst way to go about it.
But if you do that, you're a danger to others.
You're getting downvoted because you're pointing out that vaccines have risks. Fucking everything has risks. It does not help the debate when people say "Yeah vaccines are great, but there are risks". Thanks, great contribution. You took a risk driving your car.

As one of those individuals who suffered an adverse reaction, I'm surprised to find this post in grey text at the bottom of the page while the parade of right-thinkers remains at the top.

When the majority starts to frame the debate as "crazy vs. not-crazy", and replaces a balanced, scientific and reasonable assessment of pros and cons with a one-sided ideology, it'll only serve to swell the ranks of the "crazies", since there's nowhere else for intelligent skeptics to go.

The sarcasm was completely lost of me because of the brakeless bicycle movement: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-gear_bicycle#Brakeless I thought he is just a crazy bad-ass.
Let me emphasize the importance of patience and positive reinforcement.

I've worked with someone who had a reputation (previously unbeknownst to me) of being terrible to work with and inadequate to the task. However, I both enjoyed working with then and saw them make significant strides in understanding in less than a year. What was the difference?

Multiple factors:

* I made a point of working with them until they understood the problem at hand (easier to do as a fellow developer than as a manager, though, I suspect). This had the side benefit of often increasing my own depth of explicit understanding.

* I would rewrite code that they found confusing until it made sense to them. I also emphasized (sincerely) that their lack of understanding was an asset we could leverage to engineer more inherently clear code.

* Every bug of theirs was a learning opportunity.

* Praise for accomplishments, even small, was liberal.

All of the above might sound excessive and like "hand-holding," but it's things that everyone needs. A lot of us just lucked into receiving such reinforcement earlier in life, or were spared the negative reinforcement that can only be undone with larger doses of the positive. The more you invest in the "problem" developers now, the higher the dividends later.

Hoping that advice helps, and let me know if it does!
