While I have made a few OSS donations, I want to avoid doing so out of principle. I, a lone developer, should not be funding the work my peers do.

How much does openssl benefit me personally? How much does eslint? However much, it’s negligible to how much it benefits my employer. Which in turn is negligible to Google.

This is a responsibility that big tech ought to pick up, not random people.

I quickly scrolled through the supported website list, and I haven’t recognized any familiar websites.

All of these look super obscure.

Have businesses forgotten why they introduced free returns in the first place?

When you promise easy returns, you make consumers more confident in buying, which leads to more sales.

What they save through non-free returns will cost them in sales, eventually… or maybe not. I have a hard time imagining that the analysis holding up these policies for years has turned out to be wrong.

Your comment signals a key misunderstanding.

Doing a=jsx and interpolation does NOT touch the vdom in any way.

VDOM only comes into play for jsx returned from components before being rendered to screen.

There's a series about Newman and another about Holmes out there. Both are quite enjoyable.

This reads like you have worked with SQL a lot and has a skewed perspective. As a newcomer to SQL, this could be very surprising given that this diverges from every language that Im aware of having nulls.

I can only imagine Uber asking for tips for themselves. So distasteful.

What will it take to kill the 5-day week next?

It could be worse. They could be automatically closing all issues that they havent solved after 6 months like many projects on GitHub do (VS Code is particularly bad for this one).

> “Crazy, this could be used by Nazis,” one person who appears in the database said.

Hopefully they don’t live in 1930s Germany.

Yes people say that, and it is 100% true.

You can use all React features without any special tooling.

React has gone down in the amount of boilerplate.

Simply because it made browsing the web on iOS possible for me again. I think it would be appreciated by many HNers who haven’t discovered it yet.

> killing someone for not providing it

They wouldn’t live to tell the tale

Unbelievable. A post about buying an island includes zero numbers concerning the costs.

Agreed. There is absolutely no reason most statically compiled binaries should stop working.

They’re financing a war right now

I’m guessing it’s closed because you can’t download it. It’s only available through the API.

If you were going to “wait and see” anyways, then it wouldn’t have mattered.

I have a fair amount of skepticism about climate change, but I have to wonder: if things were going to be dire in 10 years, wouldn’t the practical thing to do be to sound the alarm saying that we have 2 years or we all die? How can you make people take it seriously before its too late?

It’s very much about physical safety (for the elite).

> This also can't be patched unless browsers stop allowing websites to style links

This sounds sensible. Color is perhaps the only thing that browsers should be able to control.

It’s going to birth an empty fad, where every island is a silly hat island, but most people don’t wear one.

But anyways, why does it matter? Will my silly hat experience not be as good if other people aren’t wearing one? I’m wearing for myself.

This is entirely voluntary.

I’m not sure what this is beyond saying “if you want, you can put your phone away!”

You always had that option everywhere. Are people more tempted to phone if they see other people on their phones? I never felt that.

Without web sockets and streaming responses, this is not very useful tbh.

How does this deal with web-sockets?

If Fediverse admins accept the NDAs, it would be a shame. You can’t run open communities while the top is conspiring.

Is this not the logical conclusion to « just build your own X? »

I understand the source is available. I’m saying I would enjoy seeing the source on the website as I browse it. Much easier to search up on Google that way.

I don’t understand why this should be distributed as a package of many hooks.

Unless if a hook is unusually complicated, I much rather copy-paste it into my code.

You should really share the implementations of each of them on the website. I don’t want to pull in 100 hooks just because I don’t want to write 1 from scratch.
