Human creativity is related to process and the experience of creating from nothing.

The process is more important than the end result.

Before we can measure leadership. Maybe we ought to first figure out what we mean by leadership.

Often there has being a mix up between leadership, management, and a bunch of other stuff that has nothing to do with leadership.

If people are interested in how and leadership is effectively exercised and what it is. Take a look at this paper: https://ssrn.com/abstract=1392406

The knee-jerk reaction you are talking about is what is consider by some scholars as an Ontological Functional Constraints [1].

The constraint is considered deadly for the effective exercise of leadership. The constrains can however be removed or at least relaxed in a reliable way. :)

Why not mithril? https://lhorie.github.io/mithril/

Seems to be way faster, and easier to learn than any of those other framework/libs.

For example: How is Mithril Different from Other React: Source: https://lhorie.github.io/mithril/comparison.html

"The most visible difference between React and Mithril is that React's JSX syntax does not run natively in the browser, whereas Mithril's uncompiled templates do. Both can be compiled, but React's compiled code still has function calls for each virtual DOM element; Mithril templates compile into static Javascript data structures.

Another difference is that Mithril, being an MVC framework, rather than a templating engine, provides an auto-redrawing system that is aware of network asynchrony and that can render views efficiently without cluttering application code with redraw calls, and without letting the developer unintentionally bleed out of the MVC pattern.

Note also that, despite having a bigger scope, Mithril has a smaller file size than React."

Yes, but I would imagine that cost is not too much. Why not make it into something like a public resource. Often that approach will generate more wealth for the greater community.

Often the for-profit model and fiduciary responsibility can be constraining in wealth creation in general.

Another thing I do which may shock many JS people is to actually check in the build directory of my setup into version control, because this makes deployment much easier and ensures that I will always have a working version of the code in the repository, even if some external dependencies should change in the future. This also eliminates installing extensive tooling on my production servers, which itself is a large burden and creates many security issues (for a simple setup consisting of rabel, react, require.js and a few support libraries, node.js downloads about 350 MB of source files onto the machine).

Kudos. I can't remember how many 'open/source/Free' git repo that I cloned can't compile or have problems compiling. Personally I think it is NOT open source unless the user can compile and get an exact copy of the software that is in the app store.

It is great that Whisper Systems/Signal implement cryptography properly.

However, the NEWER versions of Signal requires access to your contact to work.

For many users that is a show stopper.

Implement a way for user to search by User ID and allow user to find each other by ID in addition to phone number.
