Sounds like all the very best bits of javascript like spreads, arrow functions and destructed arguments are missing from dart.

I’m quite attached to stateless functional components too.

I really failed at this in my relationship.

I’m more open to advice from ordinarily successful people rather than the most successful people in the world.

This confirms google lets people read your email. Nothing said here denies it.

Or Microsoft Azure.

I don’t get the Microsoft hate, it feels immature, like teenage rage.

Life’s pretty good if all you have to get really mad about is Microsoft buying github.

Is Naval rich?

I think the most valuable advice in getting rich is from people who are moderately rich.

Advice from people who aren’t rich is stupid.

Advice from billionaires seems irrelevant because their circumstances are so exceptional.

How did the friend of a friend make $20million ... there’s an interesting question.

I could give you advice on how to not get rich.... just make what are in hindsight a constant flow of wrong decisions about things that could have led to financial gain. I’m an expert at that.

Yes indiehackers is becoming what HN used to be .... a community where there was a focus on tech entrepreneurship.

This raises too many questions to give a meaningful answer here on HN.

But if you want a quick opinion.... sue them for underpaying you and report it to the tax department and demand full pay for the work you did and also point out to them that you own the intellectual property rights of all the work you did and threaten to sue them if they don’t pay you for it.

Just throw it to a lawyer.

Is the author of the posts rich?

I read the source code because I was trying to see how a solved problem needed so much code to implement.

Can you explain what it means to pollute the CSS namespace and why it matters?

Are you sure you are correct or are you just guessing?

The core premise for CSS in JS is solved by backticked strings in style tags as shown above.

The backticked string style tag shown above already solves all the issues with CSS limitations in reactjs.

Here’s what the article you linked to says:

“Why does this matter? Not all CSS features can be aliased with JavaScript event handlers , many pseudo selectors (like :disabled, :before, :nth-child) aren’t possible, styling the html and body tags isn’t supported etc. With CSS-in-JS, you have all the power of CSS at your fingertips. Since actual CSS is generated, you can use every media query and pseudo selector you can think of. Some libraries (like jss, styled-components) even add support for neat, non-CSS-native features like nesting!”

All addressed by backticked strings in style tags.

Why is this better than a style tag?

What’s the purpose/benefit of generating classes from CSS versus just using CSS?

Couldn’t I just inject a CSS string into a component and put that string into a style tag?

I just read (skimmed) through the source code of https://www.styled-components.com

Holy shit there’s a lot of code there. What is it all doing - can anyone summarize?

As far as I can tell it’s main selling point is letting you use pure native CSS in reactjs.

You can do that anyway in ordinary reactjs by writing:

<style>’put your css here’</style>

Put that straight into your react code and you can use any native CSS in ReactJS.

So is the key point here a terse syntax for using actual CSS syntax (as opposed to react CSS) to create component wrappers?

It’s not really clear what this is.

Lack of a giant obvious demo link really annoys me with this sort of thing - “hey look at the code and all these words about our new visual offering”.

Hearing “chlorine washing” in the same sentence as any food puts me off that food in s big way.

They look ready to fall over.

Can’t remember. Maybe I was misusing it. Probably I was trying to either prevent access to object methods where user not authenticated or prevent access where object not initialized.

I liked the functionality but found it hard to implement. Not a good sign.

Successful features are those that surprise in the easy direction (arrrow functions) rather than in the hard direction (proxies).

Seems to me that even acknowledging these truths invites attack.

Strange how it’s only people who already own a house who suggest this.

Just name the company and post an image of the clause on a LinkedIn post and the company will quickly and publicly remove it.

Make sure they have lots of age appropriate books lying around for them to pick up. Don’t try to give them books ahead of their current level.

Notice their natural interests and try to apply your adult brain to getting them access to more resources to explore and practice those interests.

Aim without hoping to get there, at zero screen time.

Actively personally participate in their interests with them.

Search out and try new hobbies and activities for them to get exposure to.

Make most things optional, but make adult decisions about things that they must continue to do even if they don’t much like it.

Turn off that TV.

“Storage containers”, “network port mapping”, “layers”, I don’t even know the terms for actual images versus instructions to build images.

Containers aren’t even encapsulated like virtual machines, they are tightly bound to the kernel of the host. Ugh, nightmare.

Then management of all this. Ugh.

Complex, complicated and has necessitated effectively building operating system infrastructure within an already complex operating system to facilitate all this complexity.

Which bit of this is simple?

Sigh.

These “Im the center of the world” posts by VCs really make me want to snark in response.

Have you read any job ads lately?

I totally disagree.

I think that technology is driven mainly by waves of simplification, not added complexity.

Indeed this is exactly why I don’t like docker because it introduces fresh new deep complexity.

I don’t like docker, it’s a complex kludge, but it now pervades every aspect of development and operations. I just don’t want to work with it, which means I don’t want to work in most computing environments.
