React and Reconcilers in Reason

React

This is the base of all projects and it will include the foundation for all potential react-based projects in Reason.

This base package should include a ReasonReact api to promote collaboration and familiarity with people using a ReasonReact, and for the modern world of React this should also include a Hooks api that currently revery uses.

React module

All blocks in Jsx are of type React.reactElement. This reactElement should represent:

tracked npm

@tracked is a decorator for Preact that makes working with state values no different than properties on your component instance.

It's one 300 byte function that creates a getter/setter alias into state/setState() for a given key, with an optional initial value. The "magic" here is simply that it works as a property decorator rather than a function, so it appears to integrate directly into the language.

tracked has no dependencies and works with any component implementation that uses this.state and this.setState().

A curated collection of answers that Rich gave throughout the history of Clojure

Rich Already Answered That!

A list of commonly asked questions, design decisions, reasons why Clojure is the way it is as they were answered directly by Rich (even when from many years ago, those answers are pretty much valid today!). Feel free to point friends and colleagues here next time they ask (again). Answers are pasted verbatim (I've made small adjustments for readibility, but never changed a sentence) from mailing lists, articles, chats.

Who pays when startup employees keep their equity?

Who pays when startup employees keep their equity?

JD Maturen, 2016/07/05, San Francisco, CA

As has been much discussed, stock options as used today are not a practical or reliable way of compensating employees of fast growing startups. With an often high strike price, a large tax burden on execution due to AMT, and a 90 day execution window after leaving the company many share options are left unexecuted.

There have been a variety of proposed modifications to how equity is distributed to address these issues for individual employees. However, there hasn't been much discussion of how these modifications will change overall ownership dynamics of startups. In this post we'll dive into the situation as it stands today where there is very near 100% equity loss when employees leave companies pre-exit and then we'll look at what would happen if there were instead a 0% loss rate.

What we'll see is that employees gain nearly 3-fold, while both founders and investors – particularly early investors – get dilute

Rapid prototyping with Relay (Reactive 2015 lightning talk proposal)

This is a proposal for a lightning talk at the Reactive 2015 conference.

NOTE: If you like this, star ⭐ the Gist - the amount of stars decides whether it makes the cut!

Rapid prototyping with Relay

Relay makes data fetching in React apps simpler, by letting you declare the data needs of your components instead of writing complex imperative code. React, Relay, GraphQL and the other complementary tools are changing how apps are built.

I would like to propose a lightning talk for the Reactive Conference demonstrating how you can interact with Arduino and/or Raspberry Pi GPIO's using React Native.

Here's is an example video where fellow speaker Brent Vatne controls my arduino device remotely using a sample react native app that can be found here

Thank you, @christopherdro

ClojureScript Game of Life - Reactive 2015 Lightning Talk Proposal

In my proposed lightning talk for the Reactive Conference, I'll create Conway's Game of Life in ClojureScript, and I'll do it in five minutes. I'll use an interactive programming workflow enabled by Figwheel. Each piece will be added into the running application without reloading the page.

If you want to see a little cellular lifeform spawn out of nothing into an running web browser window, I'd appreciate it if you starred this Gist!

Cheers,

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics
  • elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

Hi Zach :D

Modals are funny beasts, usually they are a design cop-out, but that's okay, designers have to make trade-offs too, give 'em a break.

First things first, I'm not sure there is such thing as a "simple" modal that is production ready. Certainly there have been times in my career I tossed out other people's "overly complex solutions" because I simply didn't understand the scope of the problem, and I have always loved it when people who have a branch of experience that I don't take the time

Most VPN Services are Terrible

Most VPN Services are Terrible

Short version: I strongly do not recommend using any of these providers. You are, of course, free to use whatever you like. My TL;DR advice: Roll your own and use Algo or Streisand. For messaging & voice, use Signal. For increased anonymity, use Tor for desktop (though recognize that doing so may actually put you at greater risk), and Onion Browser for mobile.
