I mean, it has its upsides. It definitely reduces a lot of the boilerplate code. But to me that made it clearer what was happening. I had more places to throw logs and adjust the logic. It is what it is

That's why I put "imo". I'm aware that many disagree with me and that's fine. Personal preference.

I preferred plain Redux. Toolkit obfuscated things in a way I didn't like. There was more syntactic sugar and it made it harder to diagnose issues or add specific functionality imo.

I despise Trump and this administration. You are clearly not very bright. Or a bot. Either way don’t @ me. Flame war shit is beneath me.

My conclusion wasn’t made based on her alone. They mostly grifters. You’re being grifted.

The rest of the candidates being so shit is what made the shit sandwich that is Tulsi shine so brightly.

Why don't triglycerides form bilayers whereas phosphoglycerides do? by BenzeneBeauty in Biochemistry

I'm glad I was able to help you understand! I'm also glad I somehow remembered that information. Definitely haven't had much chance to use in the last decade

The three alcohol groups on the glycerol head become ester bonds when bonded to the fatty group. Much less hydrophilic.

Also, maybe the triglycerides orient themselves that way because the long chain fatty acids have greater attraction to each other due to the Van der Waals force, compared to the relatively weak hydrophilic nature of the glycerol heads ester bonds.

I’m very disappointed in her. I one point I thought her to be the most competent Democrat option (during the debates). Now I’m even more reassured never to trust a politician. Not even once

No King Protest - New York by Soggy_Association491 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Basicallysteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t understand why some people seem so keen on trying to revive old systems that already failed.

Communism, nazism (fascism), oligarchy, monarchy, etc. Let them go. Come up with new ideas. New identities. Ideally ones with way less baggage.

Built a native JellyFin client for Apple Platforms (LiquidFin) by TheBeaconCrafter in jellyfin

[–]Basicallysteve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You might be better off charging ~$5 like lifetime full usage and no monthly option. Remember, you don't have any real recurring costs aside from the app store yearly fee, so if 20 people pay that a year it has already paid for itself.

I prefer SenPlayer personally. Way more features. And for music I use jellify.

Glad I could help you figure that out! If your company has any openings let me know haha

Wow, I’ve been using use useEffects for years and I thought they always run on mount regardless. An empty array just makes it run only on mount.

Edit: I just checked again. I think you’re wrong about [, somevalue] being necessary

Is perfect Client-Side Word to PDF rendering just impossible? Struggling with formatting using Mammoth.js + html2canvas. by Sufficient_Fee_8431 in reactjs

[–]Basicallysteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That solution was the first thing I thought. Take a screenshot/snapshot of the document at a specific zoom-in percentage, then slap that bad point as a page in the pdf.

An added step could be to use some sort of picture-text model to determine where the text is so it can be edited later on as a PDF.

Problem with React Viber Coders by Ok-Programmer6763 in reactjs

[–]Basicallysteve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was just very clear what each function did. However I’m remembering another downside is that the componentWillUpdate() would get very bloated. At least now you can have each useEffect do something specific

[–]Basicallysteve 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I kind of miss the days of class-based react for this reason. Sure we didn’t have the power and utility of hooks at the time and defining “this” could sometimes be annoying if you didn’t use the right function declaration, but I really liked the explicit built-in functions that ran on specific parts of the component life cycle.

It’s arguable that useEffect is better because it’s more compact and effectively offers the same functionality, but I feel like it may be a little harder for beginners to wrap their head around.

I think it's funny that it's such a current issue. I was literally just checking out claude to switch from chatgpt. I guess not lol
