so question is then what?
For working people properties on mortgage are just expense.

For instance, bags that are on their logo flag, are not recyclable, in UK when you sorting out recyclable materials they tell you that bags are not suitable for recycling. And in some way they tear quickly and contribute hugely to micro-plastic pollution that goes into food chain.
- Fusion is around the corner, (and this time it is not yet again 30 years) it is just shifting more money into research, I read that globally only 50 bn is invested in fusion, jApple on its own has value of 2250 bn.
...
It does not matter is it 50 or 500 years, technological advances will undoubtedly lead to spread beyond the Earth. Historically, many things were "never" - until we do otherwise.
I agree with the author that we need to solve problems here first.
EDIT: For example, atmosphere is not a problem, we can have entire planet living in vast network of underground tunnels, powered by nuclear energy. We already know how to bore tunnels. In that ways, also, it would be significantly fewer problems with cosmic rays and solar storms. Anyway, point is, for each problem there will be some solution if we put our minds into it.
How much time did you spend developing all this? And resource wise how hungry is it? (Servers, Memory, CPU...)
Edit: Wait a sec, I just saw this is part of open source demo of ViewFinderJS, bit confused now, is it commercial or opensource? How do you prevent someone of other 8000ish will not create a bit same and steal your thunder so to say?
I mean except obvious Testing purpose usage, as many other tools give (Puppeteer, Selenium, WebDriver ...).
For me and probably most of the people I know, I do not know where to begin, most average income people networks are not investors type, so we do not have a clue, where to even find people who are willing to listen for a five minute pitch, without feeling that you are begging for money...
In that regard poor or middle class will never be the same as rich, it is amount of struggling to keep up the daily needs. If rich person gets bankrupt, he can easily bounce back, with connections he has, he can turn few phone calls and again pop up on the ladder, issue with other people they are not even close to ladder, until you get to ladder, there is path through swamp, forest, dark cave, and dragon on two ...
On the other hand is there a part of tolerance where you embrace that your partner is not same as you, and that from time to time it would be nice to learn few things about her/him?
In article number of 500,000 movies has been mentioned, and if you use 3 sec of swiping that is really lot of seconds, and I do not think 3sec is enough to decide on some movies. But even with 3 sec that is 416 days of 1 hour swiping, or 208 weeks if you use only 2 movies a week (2hr). So, 4 years per person would take someone through the set, but what if you find out that you do not have any matching movies?
Personally I would rather watch 206 (2hrs) movies I do not like knowing a bit better person I love.
Table has left, bits of person removed, and some other parts left.
p.s. Credits and kudos for learning new things !
When you building custom application, you are trying to do it in most optimal way for the $ paid. So, when you building something for the value $ let say 100 SP (story points), and then when you stumble on a problem in OS usually you do not end up building 100000 SP side projects (worth $$$$$$$ of your time) in order to complete 100 SP project. Especially when you crossing to someone else domain.
Everyone has its own domain, so if Google, FB, Oracle, Microsoft have the main code base for Java, C#, JavaScript, React, Angular ... or else, it is expectation that they will listen cries of users, sometimes they do other times they do not.
Few years back I was involved in Google Chrome thread about auto-fill feature, at the time I was working at the health organisation, so to cut the long story short auto-fill was populating data and causing issue, in the very long thread I gave number of cases why is automatic form fill bad (and I was proposing some one-click alternatives), at the end Chrome team was sticking with what they wanted, and justification was "Because we are Google team, and you are not, so what ever we say is the best" - end of the story.
Regardless of what my expectations are for some language or library, simply it is not there, so after banging my head and burning hours trying to solve a problem I would realize I need to use some dirty workaround (and I hate those so much I do not have enough words to describe...)
Just a few example from JS world:
- parser that is simple
- jest framework working fast
- universal planet wide date time
- SCSS compiler that does not require C++ ...
- multipart/form-data request which can be interrupted in nodejs
- ...
For each of above there is some solution, but it looks like a dirty hack ... it seems with time, instead simplifying things we are complicating things that should be simple.
The other day I was pondering, how in any other trade people becoming masters, as they becoming good with their tools, tools are becoming part of their body, so they are focusing more on art and creativity, in programming, except for those rare who are blessed with very good and fast memory, tools are always changing ... as soon as you become comfortable there will be new set of tools... and I should not even start with the whac-a-mole of method and property renaming ...
1. Nothing user has is truly hash-able, (email can be replaced, there are people with the same name/dob/place of birth, address is not permanent attribute...)
2. Hash key can have duplicates - so those collisions would block different users (probably not for small companies but for FB with 2 billion users something worth considering.)
