I've been using them lately and I think they are the bees knees.

And for React: https://javascript.info/custom-elements

He ain't as smart as you think he is.

California needs to build a heroic amount of housing as quickly as possible.

A lot of people also don't know what it's like to live / grow up in a small town. I suspect once they meet middle American culture they'll be coming right back to California.

After this article it began to be all about style and irony and it just wasn't any fun anymore. Just like what he did to punk.

If you are in New York City you can use drivers.coop.

I've been thinking about getting this laptop. I am a little hesitant because it is far more of a project than other laptops, but it seems to give me that Thinkpad x200T vibe.

I am a web dev, and I've been considering pairing this with an Apple Ipad as a sort of second screen / browser.

It's got about the same specs as my main webdev laptop -- which is a Thinkpad X200t -- with a modern GPU.

It's got a mechanical keyboard and a trackball!

It's awful -- like getting slapped in the face repeatedly -- but it works.

I am just now getting my career on track, but I am essentially starting from square one again. As a programmer your primary tool is your brain, and when it simply isn't working...

What, to me, is positive, is that we are talking about it. Just being aware of this pain and not replicating it is what is needed to shift the world.

The fact that polluters have been allowed to leave ticking time bombs all around our country without having to pay for the clean up, that we are still mining coal, that our obesity crisis could be solved by walking and taking the bus, but politicians are terrified of letting gasoline rise to its actual price?

I dunno man, you want more?

The Watts Towers complex has a museum to Mingus attached, as well as another museum of local artists attached. I'd highly recommend a visit. It's a beautiful neighborhood full of very nice people.

These types of engineers will also build stupid stuff that doesn't work, because that's what the specification written by a group of business people who have never even looked at code before said.

It's also why frameworks like React are popular.

I, of course, desperately wanted LOGO (and of course the robot turtle, too!), but my family couldn't afford it.

How would you quantify this?

So, say you're paying me $15 an hour. Really, if you own a business by the time you pay for taxes, infrastructure, capital outlay and insurance you are really paying about $45 an hour for me to hang out and do what you tell me to do at varying levels of competency. You need to make that much more value from my labor per-hour or you are going to go out of business.

Say I have a piece of software that, because of a miscommunication between the developers who wrote it and the people who have to use the software (ideally this is what management is for but, lolz) has added 30 seconds to a transaction I do 20 times an hour. This means that, suddenly, there are 10 minutes of labor added to this task on aggregate an hour.

If you have a piece of software that wastes 10 minutes of my time, you just wasted $7.50 worth of my labor. But, of course, I'm using this software for 8 hours a day. So that is $60 of money wasted a day.

So, really, you thought you needed to make $45 an hour from my labor, but you just added $7.50 to the total. So, $52.50, and now you have a morale problem to boot: because the folks who are using the software are now accomplishing less than they used to for the same amount of work.
