You can fully care about one person at a time.

You can not genuinely care about every person on the planet every moment.

Potato potato. Js classes are just closure sugar. So what?

Syntax makes sense and improves readability in business logic. Readability is good

Mobile apps handle app data better. They have their own well defined jail to work with. Simple to locate “stuff”

I maintain a pretty complex app to draw 2D graphics for 3D objects. For packaging productions. Basically draw your packaging design with 3D preview. So this is basically a 2d3D editor with TONS of business and material knowledge.

It’s powered by react.

But it so decoupled from react you can slap mini gui in any other form / framework in a day

I think it is about input. Before I had to type regex, now I just type text and fuzzy finds more, regex style. Awkward wording, but code seems cool.

This is how organizations like IRGC work. There is always a big campus like area where there is everything, including schools for indoctrination and new future recruits.

This what always happens in capitalism. Scarcity is almost always followed by glut

> work at a European identity wallet system that uses a zero knowledge proof age identification system

> derives an age attribute such as "over 18" from a passport or ID, without disclosing any other information

Well, as soon someone points their chinaphone camera on a passport, it is already over.

This whole setup is a nightmare fuel.

You want to check over 18? Fine, let adults set their kids devices in a "child" mode. Problem solved.

No need to create a stasi dreamland.

This is a genuinely beautifully written book chapter on origami math/geometry, with interactive graphics and playgrounds.

Is it a runner minute or workflow running minute? That would be a massive difference. Would people pay for idle time or not?

I’ve stopped buying any books that have that kind of a DRM. Kindle / audible apps are horrible
