I can’t help but think of Gary Bernhardt’s 2014 talk, “The Birth and Death of JavaScript”: https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/the-birth-and-death...

From my understanding, Actual does not maintain any servers that hold user data. I believe this is referencing the fact that currently, data is stored unencrypted on the device itself, but that in the future there are plans to encrypt it at rest on your devices. More details here: https://actualbudget.com/syncing-devices/

I saw similar results on my MBP, with Chrome scoring ~90 and Firefox scoring ~60. Not enough to outweigh my reasons for using Firefox, but interesting.

I have been looking at this recently with great interest!

A problem I have with all other split layout keyboards is that they place the B key on the left side of the keyboard. However, I type the letter B with my right index finger, not my left. I know this is "incorrect", but it is firmly ingrained in my muscle memory and while I've tried changing it in the past, I've had little success.

I got very excited when I saw the "key cluster" module, since if it were available for the right side, it would allow me to just place my own B key next to N where I want it.

Is this planned? I would buy this in a heartbeat if so.

I was confused by this language too. I think it means that in the context of PayPal being a payment method, you agree not to mischaracterize it in any way.

ca( would work for this as well.

I think what mangeletti meant was that you can't force anyone not to use strong encryption if it exists.

Wow! This is really impressive! I can't wait until someone ports this to vim. I might even take a stab at it myself. Great work!

Just switched and it might be a placebo effect, but everything from scrolling to switching files seems a bit...snappier. Is this due to the async improvements? Do plugins have to opt-in to be async or does the core re-implement previously synchronous functionality to be asynchronous?

Any bets on how long it will take Twitch to enter "rm -rf /" once the filesystem is set up?

I'm a Software Engineer at my company. I used to work on a large Rails project, but now I am on a team where we are building out a smaller product with a React/Flux frontend. I work mainly on frontend stuff right now.

I have a small side project for a family member. He's a commercial beekeeper and needed a way to track information about his hives, so I am making him a mobile app (built with Ionic) that lets him put QR codes on the hives and track everything he needs about them.

My wife and I just had our first baby, and I'm starting Georgia Tech's OMSCS program in the Spring, so I don't have much spare time right now. But off and on I have been learning Clojure/ClojureScript, Haskell, and more about React and its ecosystem. I also am teaching an introductory JavaScript class for a local tech "bootcamp" company, and enjoying it a lot.

This is a really cool idea! I'd love to see more specs on the 16 individual cameras, but the theory seems solid. The only image I didn't like in the gallery was the macro shot of the chessboard. If you look at the pieces in the background, you can sort of make out different layers (which I presume come from the multiple lenses), and it looks a little unnatural. But for anything besides macro photography, this looks awesome!

Just downloaded! I love it. The only thing I was going to say was I wish it had the ability to resize the window and save the size for each time it opened...then I realized you were one step ahead of me and had done exactly that! Very impressive, and a fantastic example of React and Electron. I'm definitely bookmarking this to come back and learn from the codebase later.

TAKE MY MONEY

> Until age 38 I was very focused on material accumulation. I had a Porsche 911 (called Helmut), several investment properties, a wife, and several pairs of trousers.

Is anybody else disturbed by the inclusion of his wife in his list of material posessions?

At my company in the Atlanta area, I am on a team of 20 people, 12 of which are developers. Since I started a little over a year ago, my team alone has hired 2 developers fresh out of a Rails bootcamp. The hiring managers are actively seeking "junior" devs (bootcamp or not) in order to invest in their skills and train them in our company culture.

For some background, the company is fairly large (15,000 or so total employees), but has a strong focus on technology and there are approximately 25 "capability teams" including mine that function largely independently and autonomously.

I have been reading through this awesome book series called You Don't Know JS (youdontknowjs.com), and it's helped me SO MUCH to understand JS at the next level.

I had the immense pleasure of taking a workshop with Kyle Simpson, the author, at a conference last year and it covered much of the material from his books. In particular I found the book on 'this' and object prototypes to be fantastic.

This is the first module I've published to npm. It's pretty simple, but I figured it might be useful to someone else. My main motivation is to get some feedback on how I could improve the code, tests, documentation, etc. Please let me know how I did!

I attended a conference and took an all-day workshop from the author of this series. He covered a lot of the content from his books in the workshop, and it was phenomenal. Highly recommended!

Go, because out-of-normal-order the type declarations are.
