You hit the nail on the head for me. The point is we should have higher standards. Why do we have to wait at all for computers to boot up or programs to load today? Our systems have gotten thousands of times more powerful, and with that power we have not produced an order of magnitude more value.

You know what else had a low barrier of entry? Geocities. The world is a better place without it. Certain things should require at least a medium barrier, to keep out the masses. Why? Because when you lower the barrier, more will come and they will inevitably create shitty things. Somewhat working, always kludgy, shit...

What are you talking about? Most programs today are both faster, more complex and provides more functionality and value than those from years ago. As for boot times/load times, those were mainly bottlenecked by HDD speeds, but now that SSDs are mainstream you can boot up Windows in about 10 seconds, great improvement...

Pretty much. Gor's basically along the lines of "Conan the barbarian". Surprise: barbarians keep slaves, and men tend to dominate such stories both in fiction and historically. There is more to it than that, I'm sure, but I've not read enough of the Gor novels to say much beyond that.

If you mean Jigsaw recommends against circular object references, as you'd see in Observer, then you're wrong. Circular module dependencies **≠** circular object references.

One thing to remember is that the Electron runtime continues to improve. Each time the Js engine is optimized, all the apps using it get the benefits more or less for free. Having a cross-platform engine that has low barrier to entry and makes it easy to write and maintain applications is very valuable in my opinion.

I'd rather have a bad web designer design an app than a programmer in all fairness. In certain good native app developers do create great looking apps, most don't.

Think of them as method names. You wouldn't call it `object.fixesABug()` you would call it `object.fixBug()`.

Methods that can only be called in a specific sequence, and calling them mutates your copy of ...

For what it's worth, I think this is a great 15 minute introduction to some of the parts that make up self-driving car software. It's VERY lacking in depth, but reading the comments here, nothing short of a Nobel prize worthy PhD project will satisfy. Good job, ignore the haters.

With the address example I was just considering that the user had a typo or something in the first update and was correcting it with the second. There are lots of ways to solve these issues but the gist is it's easier to just use a messaging platform that gives you a guaranteed message order.

No, with a few important (IMO) caveats: 1. You do have to keep up technologically (well, I guess unless you want to make a living maintaining a creaking-but-vital COBOL codebase, and there's nothing wrong with that).
