I'm not sure I see how obvious it is that a <Redirect/> is wrong. But that's fine, I take your point that it's not particularly intuitive.

I'm of the opinion that routing, in general, is a function of application state - and I like to manage my application state with Redux - so I will often also mix in connected-react-router [1]. This lets you do navigation w/ an imperative API [2].

About half way down, "... I've been exploring some promising mechanisms in my current project, an idealized assembly language and OS for teaching programming called Mu"

It's really easy to build a React Native app, but not easy to build a really good one.

edit: Lol apparently two React devs ears were burning at the same time.

We want users to view the tool as a virtual assistant, and not as the enemy. Over time we hope to add features like daily summaries, more conversational / nlp understanding and, eventually, the ability to understand what the tasks are about so we can offer positive feedback/encouragement.

Difficulty? hard to say, looks like knowledge of the various libs used is pretty critical, but pieces look to be between 100-200 lines.

Can you tell me what crime was committed here? As noted in the Vindicator's own article:

> While unhappy with Facebook’s action, the editor reminds readers that Facebook is a business corporation, not the government, and as such it is allowed to restrict use of its services as long as those restrictions do not violate any laws. Plus, The Vindicator is using Facebook for free, so the newspaper has little grounds for complaint other than the silliness of it.

> The problem The Vindicator faces is that it has become dependent, perhaps too dependent, on Facebook to communicate with local residents and to promote the newspaper. Some Vindicator stories posted on thevindicator.com attract thousands of page views, but usually only after links to them are shared on Facebook. Plus, many bits of information are shared by the newspaper through Facebook alone.

And review this announcement that they are building a tool to appeal decisions: https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/04/comprehensive-community...

What more do you want? Feel free to mention specifics instead of just downvoting me because I disagree with you.

FB has been under intense scrutiny for providing a platform for hate speech, so why should we be surprised that they use automated means to decrease the lead time between posting and removal?

That phrase is hate speech, it just happens to be contained within one of the founding documents of the US. While it is a worthwhile goal for the algorithm to understand the context of it - I don't think we're quite there yet, and I would rather have a few false positives than the avalanche of shit that would exist without it.

As to whether a human removed it, I suspect that from the perspective of the person doing it, it's better to err on the side of caution than lose your job; especially a non-US citizen.

Skimmed the blog because it seemed to be mostly fluff and presumably the author does not work at Stripe, but I do consider this a good design for the following reasons (some aesthetic, some practical, not exhaustive):

- Dead simple call to action & it speaks to two core audiences. Either you're a developer and you know how this works (create an account), or you're an executive and you know you want to talk to somebody (contact sales).

- The diagonal lines are cool because they stand out on the web (filled with vertical and horizontal lines) and they create movement within the design to draw your eyes over to the little illustrations.

- The illustration/hero image itself is nice because there's not so much detail that you get bogged down in the solution yourself, but the variety of big brands and different sorts of user experiences allow you to visualize your brand with a slick checkout experience right next to those "big players".

- Well-executed typographic contrast. Think colors, sizing, weights, and variation between title-casing and uppercase. This is important because it creates a visual hierarchy, so if you don't want to read the whole page, at least visually you "know" what is important.

- Color palate is well suited to the industry. Too lazy to find facts, but in general blues are known to be calm/soothing and green communicates or gives the perception of trust/success. Whether that is your success as a potential customer, or Stripe's success, idk; Just a vague designerish feeling.

- Finally, I think it would good given the points above - but the interactive elements really give it the kind of polish that would make me call it "great". IMO, these types of flourishes are signalling quality. Take them away and the site is just fine, but as the author mentions - to most people they give a sense of delight. Not over the top; just subtle, playful little elements.

Regarding the link you mentioned; I don't think it's a bad design, but not on the caliber of Stripe's. For me the typography is quite dull, and having read all of the text on the page; it's not really clear to me what valuable service they are providing. My impression is that it's a white-brandable video hosting site, with maybe some version control? I'm not exactly sure because I only gleaned that info from the 2 of the 5 bullet points, which are identical to the other 3 generic features.

Anyways, I'm just some guy who flunked out of design college - so take all this crap with a grain of salt.

Also, I'm glad I found you! Long-time user of Paw, but going to make the switch to Insomnia. Question, can I just type a JS object into request body and you stringify the JSON for me? Is that something you would accept as a PR if not?

I believe your are confusing web pages with graphic design. A graphic designer's job is based in information architecture. Webpages were originally designed for simple document sharing, however since '96 - we still have some simple documents, but we also have non-trivial games, and extremely complex applications that run businesses.

This open source project happens to be for the mid to latter, so it seems appropriate then that they actually demo some of the features of the library. Also, one could make the argument that a beautiful design can inspire another developer to make something beautiful. API's are often pretty dull. I find this design to be delightful.

BTW, you can always use shortcuts provided by your browser/OS. Tap in the header on mobile, press "Home" on Windoze, and Cmd+Up on Mac.

Specifically the comment that you replied "And?" to, I think makes valid points. You have the right to block ads, but the BG also has the right to block people who block ads.

Finally, how can they be reasonably expected to test a custom page against many different adblockers, all of which alter the structure of the DOM; In addition to being actively hostile to their goal, which is to be compensated for their work.

Then don't. What are you complaining about?

I suppose terrestrial radar looks at much smaller objects and what it sees is emitted from the tower and bounced back in a straight line so that sort of makes sense.

To your point, I would lean towards bluetooth as I've never associated the phenomena with Pandora. My friends and I mostly use Spotify.

I don't think an artist has a duty to anyone but themselves, especially on the internet. Should medical devices be designed so that they don't harm people? Definitely. But the factor there is that you're actively selling/distributing it to the public - or at the very least, you are making certain guarantees about the function of the device.

This website/artwork makes no such guarantees and as such I don't see how you can reasonably expect that it should tailored to any specific audience. Again, in the time that you and I have spent commenting on this - you could have either PM'd a mod to add a NSFW tag to the title, or modified the site itself to suit your needs - that's what's awesome about the internet.

I could not disagree more with this opinion. The creator presumably hosts this website on her own dime & invested the time and effort to create this piece of art - and you are connecting to their server, free of charge. I don't see how you could reasonably claim that they have a "duty" to do anything.

You're right that an image of a nude woman would be make this unacceptable in a school setting - however, it is your duty to vet the content that you show in class, not the other way around.

Finally, I don't see what educational purpose this would serve - as it's not like this is actually an OS, perhaps as an example of html5/js programming or nostalgia. In fact the whole thing is a JS app, so there is nothing stopping you from running it locally, where you can edit to your heart's content. Ironically the first JS file I clicked on (desktop.js) contains the shortcut definitions for the desktop.

Agree with both points, 0.1% is not nothing - that's what NASA scrapes by on. FWIW, the article mentions a ramp up in spending going up to the census year - so I take it that this is not an annual cost.
