Im not sure that RD works that way. Innovate, time and compatibility, pick two.

solidr53on WebAssembly is more than the web

Think about if the same codebase were in JS, it would definitely be slower. But like others are saying, streaming is one of the main features of wasm.

Nice one!

solidr53on Flutter is not React

Yes definitely, and enforce a naming convention for widget childrens. They are currently all over the place.

solidr53on Flutter is not React

I highly recommend reading the DSX issue on github, I am one of the supporter and highly disagree with the author of this article.

They don't seem to know how JSX works, tell us what Flutter wont be instead of what it could be. I am truly sorry for their fatal decisions in this aspect.

solidr53on React Native: A retrospective from the mobile-engineering team at Udacity

I have a pretty solid counter argument lining up to be published soon (less than 2 weeks, hopefully not too late). I feel that those who had such a bad experience are just doing it wrong.

It has to do with native navigation. What apps are all about.

solidr53on Show HN: ReactScrollShadow – CSS shadow to indicate scrollable area

Doesn't work all the time, you should use IntersectionObserver or ResizeObserver etc.

Edit: I'll rephrase my question, why does the Hacker News Frontpage include stories with zero comments and 1 point?

solidr53on State of React Native 2018

Hi! I've contributed at lot into RNN and love to read comments like yours. I feel the library is very underestimated by the community and IMO should be maintained and shipped with React Native by default.

I've been planning to switch to V2 in our starter kit for the next major release.

solidr53on State of React Native 2018

There is a small step to get all the build tools into your mindset, xcode and gradle. For me the javascript side of things has been very stable.

I have built couple of native like applications with react native, and my only recomendation is using native navigation, it is key.

solidr53on Apple introduces macOS Mojave

I like it, only issue I've found so far is Safari's private browsing (or Incognito) that is indistinguishable from normal browsing.

Under "normal" circumstances I wouldn't care, but I use it a lot for development with the same site, so I don't know which is what.

solidr53on Spend analysis of 6 years, 686 rides, and $12k spent on Uber (2017)

True, that 1 in 10 where you are faster is in cities like New York or Tokyo. And its not "a little faster".

solidr53on Firefox’s new streaming and tiering compiler

Thanks to pressure from HHVM I assume. Nothing was happening in the PHP language for freaking three years.

To be fair the benchmarks usually take a wordpress or drupal installation and do a requests per second measurement, which IMO is a real world benchmark.

No hate, I just don't get why hhvm doesn't get any love for what they did. Maybe because from HPHPc to HHVM they seriously gave the PHPc a competition and people kind of got mad.

solidr53on Essential Image Optimization

But the compression in GIF is so terrible that it will possibly be way bigger than individual JPEG or WEBP. I would say, go with WEBM and a mobile frame-by-frame player, there are dozens.

solidr53on The State of JavaScript 2017

We once had a hope, it was called dart and could transpile to JS as well for backwards compatibility.

Now wasm has our hopes up again but without direct dom access.
