Drivers around San Antonio can be insane, from my experience

I don't know, I've lived in Austin my whole life and I've always loved it. But I've also never lived anywhere else for any kind of comparison. But the traffic I've experienced visiting other cities really makes the traffic here seem not so bad, especially now that the Mopac construction has wound down.

But yes, it's frickin' hot. But I'm a homebody anyways :)

Nothing is forcing you to put everything in Redux. If state only has relevance to a single component then keep it in that components state, Redux works perfectly fine with this approach.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the 911 operator doesn't ask your preferred doctor before sending an ambulance.

It's hard to shop around when you're having a heart attack.

I never even considered this option, a whole new world awaits me

Professionals tried different settings, that's the key difference.

I'm wondering how this compares to the frequency of any comments by day. It could be that more comments are posted on Sunday in general, and the least on Wednesday.

Customary, but unless the name is trademarked, not required.

Is that such a bad thing? Slightly redundant, but that seems more aesthetic than anything.

This doesn't quite look like the same bug described in the article. Maybe the inconsistency with the comma separator is a separate bug?

All dogs are good dogs.

The authors company isn't a Slack competitor, it's a real-time data platform. Otherwise I imagine they wouldn't be using Slack for their internal messaging.

That's insane. And despite losing the suit, they continue to do the exact same thing.

That might be okay for a software engineer who can likely find a different offer somewhere else without much trouble, but that's not going to be realistic for everybody.

It looks like they've kept the D-Pad in so it can double as the A/B/X/Y buttons in that situation, which I think is a really clever way to alleviate some of that issue. I think the type of games where this use case makes sense probably don't need a large number of buttons anyways, though.

Not that I believe the rape allegations against him are necessarily true, but just because she consented before doesn't mean she consented then. That's a dangerous assumption to make in any situation.

I think that right there was the problem.

On the other hand you could use static typing to avoid writing a lot of tests. Maybe it's a bit of preference thing, I don't mind either approach personally.

I wish I had taken your advice...

You would still need to do it for every user, anytime you create a new one. I fail to see how that's any different from, say `echo "export HOMEBREW_NO_ANALYTICS=1" >> .bashrc`

Of course, the better alternative IS for it to be opt-in, which it should be.

Poor word choice on my part, I wasn't intending to downplay the significance.

So it's a networked file system, just implemented better? That was my takeaway from the post.

Couldn't you just put it in your .bashrc?

For the average user the two concepts are not so different. Most people wouldn't think twice about downloading an executable, just like they wouldn't think twice about clicking a link.

Some RethinkDB merch like that would be awesome!

It's not like that is a significant amount of money for a company the size of Samsung.

I would disagree that optional braces are a "great power." I feel like it's a really nothing feature.

The particular module being used in the article has async versions of those methods. He uses the synchronous versions in the example presumably for clarity/brevity.

And ::1 while they're at it.
