Mind expanding on this?
> How do you test your product hypothesis without a product?
You can't. Actually... it depends on how you define a product. The way I think of it is: a product is merely a vehicle for the added value. With that understanding it becomes easier to decouple the value from the actual product. Therefore the MVP is no longer a stripped down version of the product but rather the simplest tool you can build to provide [that] value.
Honestly, I think one should be skeptical of anyone who’s (1) giving advice and (2) don’t have the experience (knowledge itself is not enough) to back it up.
Exactly!
But yeah, for structural layouts grids are better.
2d -> grid
1d -> flex
For the resources, I recommend:
Flexbox: https://flexboxfroggy.com/
That said, native app performance is still unmatched (but not by a long shot!) the react-native project (both by FB and MSFT) looks promising.
However, there’s a big difference between the types of conversations: async or sync.
That said, my recommendation is to pick whichever medium is easier for you to manage/moderate on the go.
Completely unrelated:
> 113. The only constructive theory connecting neuroscience and psychology will arise from the study of software.
This is really interesting. I haven't ventured into neuroscience (yet) but I've been "practicing" psychology (I'm not an SME; I'm just observing, introspecting and thinking about the thing) and I've found the two (software + psychology) to be well connected. For instance, when it comes to designing the UI/UX, you _need_ to have an (intuitive) understanding of the psychology underlaying the design.
I agree on the principle, however there’s a trust issue.
Out of n reviews on IMDB and RT how many of them are authentic? And how much weight does a critic’s review bear on the overall score?
In my case, be it for a movie or a book (not so much for songs though) the Lindy effect applies.
> all the various mental abstractions we have built for ourselves in life and society are not necessarily 'wrong', but definitely questionable.
If I may interject here: The mental models we, both as a society and individuals, operate on are at best incomplete and at worst inaccurate. But then again, humanly-speaking there are no and there will never be a complete or accurate nor true or even correct model — it is by design. And the most obvious (inward) reason is: cognitive biases (and therefore, evolution by extension).
That said, while on a micro scale it might seem imperfect/suboptimal, on a macro scale it’s actually beneficial because that’s (the imperfection) what actually allows us as a group of individuals to evolve and adapt.
