VSCode config to disable popular extensions' annoyances (telemetry, notifications, welcome pages, etc.)
// I'm tired of extensions that automatically:
// - show welcome pages / walkthroughs
// - show release notes
// - send telemetry
// - recommend things
//
// This disables all of that stuff.
// If you have more config, leave a comment so I can add it!!

How to make a game loop for your idle game

How do I make a game loop for my Idle Game?

Interval-Based Resource Generators

So, you want to build an idle/incremental game in JavaScript and you’ve read on the internet that setInterval is the way to go when it comes to handling resources that automatically generate over time.

You get started, you write down your setInterval function, you set it to trigger once every 1000 milliseconds, and every time it triggers, you add 1 to the player’s total resource count. Perfect. It works.

Uh-oh.

Interaction tracing with React

This API was removed in React 17


Interaction tracing with React

React recently introduced an experimental profiler API. After discussing this API with several teams at Facebook, one common piece of feedback was that the performance information would be more useful if it could be associated with the events that caused the application to render (e.g. button click, XHR response). Tracing these events (or "interactions") would enable more powerful tooling to be built around the timing information, capable of answering questions like "What caused this really slow commit?" or "How long does it typically take for this interaction to update the DOM?".

With version 16.4.3, React added experimental support for this tracing by way of a new NPM package, scheduler. However the public API for this package is not yet finalized and will likely change with upcoming minor releases, so it should be used with caution.

# It also dumps all of the records into CSV files inside a 'CSV' folder, that is created

Getting a Shell in the Docker for Windows Moby VM

2018 Update: Easiest option is Justin's repo and image

Just run this from your CLI and it'll drop you in a container with full permissions on the Moby VM. Only works for Moby Linux VM (doesn't work for Windows Containers). Note this also works on Docker for Mac.

docker run -it --rm --privileged --pid=host justincormack/nsenter1
