Just used your service to order from sainsburys based on this comment. Outstanding process, so simple. Put me in my partners good books! On the sign up I said I found you on hacker news. Thanks for posting here!
I have never once in my relationship considered who was smarter than who. What makes you so smart that this is even a thought?
Thank you. Invite received!
How long is the beta waitlist at this time?
Exactly what it reminded me of! Had me smiling the whole way through. If anyone knows of more long form writing with this style i'd love to know!
Wow what is wrong with me. I order the extra large tub every time. I absolutely love the sauce
The whole thing is a joke
What is so scary about there being a market for a flat fee service allowing you to listen to any song you want, any time you want?
The act of listening to music doesnt require a vast server infrastructure. Thats why people could still listen to music they had stored offline during the outage.
I credit mithril and it’s fantastic community of knowledgeable devs with really changing my learning style at the outset of my dev career. Essentially from learning by reading, and becoming overwhelmed (as is often reported in the js world), to learning by doing and using technology. I’m sure this happens to many other people through different routes but I personally experienced it through this community. Seeing people so actively discuss things with new users and the amount of other general interesting discussion that happens in the mithril Gitter channel makes it one of my favourite places on the web. There is a strong desire for simplicity and a strong anti bloat sentiment from the devs over there. I like it a lot. I’m referring to you, Pygy, Leo, tivac, barney, porsager, jaforbes and foxdonut. I have built and deployed a few mithril apps in production early in my career and I’m glad I had the chance. I wonder now how new js devs starting with frameworks like vue can learn to work with the language rather than than the framework when every part of it is wrapped up in a reactivity system. I would worry that a lot of vue devs would come to mithril and not understand why the string literals they are passing down to components are not being set in the parent.
Anyway that’s enough. Cheers to mithril and it’s great devs, if you like mithril check out bss and Wright from porsager and meiosis from Foxdonut.
Mithril has a very open and inviting community and will definitely accept PRs. I reccomend popping into the Gitter channel if you’d like to discuss things further
Yours do that if you want, but then you might have customers using large parts of the code base that other don't have access to so you want to use code splitting. You probably have some images and want them to look good on all screens but also want them to be a small size so you use image srcset but you need to output 6 images for all the sizes. If you're using svgs you might want to inline these. I mean it goes on and on really, just look at all the headings within the webpack docs if you want more insight. I can understand why it seems crazy and perhaps it is more crazy than I think but if you want you can just concatenate all the scripts, if you want more bells and whistles then you can too
This comment bears no resemblence to the experience of those of us running mithril in production
I spend all day writing SPA code and would be fired if my boss saw me do anything like that
This guy has gotten it so wrong I'm verging on mistaking it for a troll.
This poor example of an SPA is not going to convince anyone that Single page apps are a good thing.
I think if an SPA can achieve all of these http://rauchg.com/2014/7-principles-of-rich-web-applications...
with minimal additional payload, then it's good.
I don't know where I stand on this issue but to see people defending this as 'persecuting someone for their political views' seems a little odd. Thiel is openly supporting and funding a presidential candidate piping hate in to your country's population in the form of racism, misogyny etc etc - This is not a political view everyone, it is hate speech. This is not political to me. Thiel is funding a hate machine and helping him stay on the biggest platform in the world so he can continue.
What is political about that?
In the UK you could say you support the British National party because they want free school tuition but a large part of their platform is racist - and discredited because of it.
I try and be fairly neutral and absolutely find 'justice warrior' type stances to be awful, unjust and discriminatory. I just don't see how this can be defended. Propaganda and hatred should not be called 'political' to make it OK that some rich guy gave him a ton of cash.
Seeing many negative comments here. As someone getting to grips with programming and who already has a paid position I do sometimes wonder what I would need to be doing / know to have a more advanced position.
What do people want, and how should I say I have what people want (assuming i do)
