I could never get used to mine, I didn't even know there were alternatives so I might give it a go.

I bet you didn't expect them to double down with "actually i do think bikes and most things we do are superstition"

yeah i was very disappointed to find out i couldn't use my wife's imac as a display for my mpb

It does! Here's a bookmarklet with that added (generated here: https://caiorss.github.io/bookmarklet-maker/)

> I think it's necessarily going to be more expensive and less flexible compared to alternatives

What are the alternatives? Is there something like this I can get my hands on now?

For me personally the usage of my resources was apparently so low as to go unnoticed.

I had to be told by the Internet that it was even happening to an extent that could be noticed.

It would be interesting to have stats though.

Because once you exercise enough to lose weight he reclassifies you as an athlete

We really need to go back to 1 supercontinent

Maybe? Certainly it must be easier to attain higher income if you're legally allowed to be and work in the country.

> That products survive this long with React illuminates how resistant the community is to... reading and doing work in the easiest, pragmatic way possible.

My point is that you were entirely wrong. Web Components are not ready for primetime, they are half baked. If they were the easiest and most pragmatic way possible to build web applications people would do so.

The only thing they are the easiest and most pragmatic for is to build a simple non-form associated component that can be used across frameworks. Like a card.

> It has always been a chore in one way or another.

It's actually never been a chore to make an <input> behave properly. Something that literally every component library needs to do.

I don't think that's accurate. SPA's arise from the desire to put something like Slack in a web page. If bootcamps are responsible for that, I don't see how. Isn't it more likely that they meet the demand rather than create it? And bootcamps taught Rails long before they taught React.

And let's be honest, making a server rendered site with some traditional Python framework is in many ways just as easy or easier than making a SPA.

For anyone else that didn't read the README, MHTML is mentioned in the comparison section https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile#file-format-com...

That's just one example, and the issues with form associated components are not limited to ING. The Microsoft FAST form components also have a fuck ton of code to achieve what <label> + <input> can do in any non-webcomponent framework.

There are proposals for this and most of the other issues I have with web components. But they all feel like issues that could have been covered from the beginning.

Also if you go all Lit on an app with many nested shadow doms it becomes fairly painful to test with tools like cypress.

I've been maintaining a web component library with Lit for a while. Web components overall don't feel ready for primetime. Just making a custom input field and have it work with a <form> is chore.

Just look here at how much overall code is needed to do it right: https://github.com/ing-bank/lion/blob/master/packages/input/...

After you get through all the inheritance and mixins it's thousands of lines

I wouldn't call <For> in Solid a custom DSL anymore than any given React component. And Solid looks to have good TS support.

For me it's because people already know and are already using Postman. We already author collections for services that other devs in the company reference when using our APIs.

Sure we could write the tests in python or whatever, but everyone is already using and likes Postman for the most part. And replacing the postman collections that people use for reference with a folder of scripts I don't see going over well.

I'd personally prefer something like https://hurl.dev where you have a readable file in source control, but that's not a battle I'd win at this point.

I don't imagine exile would be as bad today as it would back then. Our national level politicians are fairly wealthy too. Getting exiled as a local level politician would be tough though.

Plex has shifted over time to present their content more prominently. It got to the point that your own media isn't even displayed on the default landing screen. Had to re-teach the kids how to find their movies and whatnot.

I haven't had it running in about a year though, couldn't be bothered after a move.

Jellyfin looks nice. I'll have to give it a go. I am dreading having to set everything up again if I move off of plex, rather than just grab my docker-compose file and get going.

It’s also not the general consensus I find by reading peoples experiences across various platforms online. I went to school for a year in Germany and greatly enjoyed it.

Of course I expect a different opinion from the top 3% income tech bro libertarian bent of the HN user base. But I haven’t seen a compelling reason here to think life for the average American is better than it is for someone in the EU.

>> what do you use as a discovery platform

> I randomly happen upon them

It answers the question but likely not the answer they were looking for.

Personally I find that YouTube recommends decent content to me based on what I like to watch.

But it’ll recommend garbage to my kids. The problem is that the kids like the garbage.

Beyond that often YouTubers in a certain niche will mention / promote others doing similar stuff.

I do subscribe to premium just to avoid the Prager U and other ads that have no business being targeted at kids in the first place.

Never heard of it. Does that work on a child’s iPad and expose videos via an interface that they can navigate?

I don’t know why you guys want to be America so bad. Nobody I personally know that has had the chance to move to the EU has ever returned. Roughly a sample size of 5, but you get the point.

Any reason to believe it’s not the same as when you install any other app and grant it various permissions? Or are you insinuating that TikTok is exploiting the platforms and getting data it shouldn’t have access to?

> If you knew enough about RNW to look out for sites using it and pose a question about it then I assumed you knew enough about Flutter to do the same?

That it exists, it's general purpose, and given it's semantic version that it's pre-release software. That's all I know about it. I know a little more about Flutter since it has a marketing budget.

It probably wouldn't be wise to rely on either of them outside of hobby projects. Unless of course you are Facebook/Twitter/Google, aka have effectively unlimited budget and employ the people who wrote the stuff to begin with.

Never used Flutter, no plans to use Flutter, likely would never rely on anything by Google in this space if I could help it. Not sure why you're asking me about it, unless you think my question about this v0 library is somehow a defense of Flutter, which it's not.

> especially with react-native-web

I've seen this but never heard of anyone using it. Do you have any notable examples of serious production apps shipped with this?

> That analogy is just yet another way how to shut up people who dont like the process.

In that case explaining why you like anything is a way to shut people up who don't

> I'd say it's more like having a second pair of eyes while you're doing a tricky reversing maneuver.

I’ve always liked the rally racing driver/navigator analogy for explaining pair programming. It tends to go better if you generally follow those roles when doing it too.

I've always thought there was a balance of average US liberal and libertarian tech bro with a sprinkle of "far left commie antifa folks" (taken from elsewhere in this thread)

Maybe Stalin.
