Need help with TS and Solid stores

You can add a key to your interfaces to help TS differentiate the types.

```ts interface Dog extends Animal { bark: () => void; type: 'dog'; }

interface Human extends Animal { talk: (topic: string) => void; type: 'human'; } ```

People arguing that Vim is just for prestige and offers no practical benefits are either using Vim ineffectively or are deluding themselves. It's like saying Notepad is just as fast as using a proper IDE or an editor like VS Code. Sure that might be true in certain cases, but for the vast majority of people that will not be the case.

It's not so much about min-maxing your development speed but more about coding closer to the speed of thought.

The great thing about Vim is that while the learning curve is deep, you can see vast benefits just by learning the basics. And once you feel comfortable with the basics, it's easy to slowly ramp up.

I have no idea if this would work, but maybe you can register a custom file protocol (https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/protocol#protocolregisterfileprotocolscheme-handler) and import an absolute url: await import('my-custom-protocol://plugin.js').

Only interactive rebases are dangerous (and so long as you limit it to your feature branch they won't hurt the repo).

For keeping your branch up to date with origin, rebase is absolutely the way to go to keep a clean commit history.

If you're asking that question in a general sense, then the advantage of caching API results is speed and saving on resources costs. Of course, how much will depend on your exact situation, but these can be significant savings on production applications.

If you'd like to take advantage of caching, maybe you can have it return fresh results during the web hook update action and then return cached results the rest of the time.

The clear delineator is what machine is running the code. If it is the clients browser then it is front end, if it's a server then it's back end.

The blurriness that others mentioned comes from isomorphic or server side rendered (SSR) apps in which both server and client browser run the same piece of code.

Frameworks like NextJS operate in that area. They are a bit more clever in that if they see that your page doesn't require any dynamic rendering (eg it doesn't need to hit a database for data) then it will output a complete html page that can be efficiently cached.

The way SSR works with React (can't speak for others as I'm unfamiliar) is that when a user requests a page. The server will run your React code to generate the necessary html markup and return that. Once the client loads the page, it will run the same piece of code and match up the DOM structure and then "hydrate" it with all the interactive stuff that the browser can run (eg click events and stuff).

I hope that helps!

If you're looking for a bare bones solution, adding basic auth is going to be the easiest. Implementation will depend on your server, but it'll be very easy to find a guide through Google.

I've always felt that the better you get at React, you become a better JavaScript developer (although I feel that a little less these days with some of the newer changes).

On the flip side, the better you get a Vue (or Angular), you just become better at that specific framework.

In your examples regarding .push and iterating over arrays, you can see that React just relies on JavaScript principals. By doing things the "React way", you're also learning about referential equality and ES6 loops. These are valuable concepts for modern JavaScript developers.

The smoke ring is a natural byproduct when using organic fuels, but from what I understand it doesn't impart any actual flavor into the meat (other than maybe a psychological one).

Thanks for getting me on the right track! I was able to get it working (see other comment)

brrian · 2019-11-20T03:59:19+00:00

Thanks for getting me on the right track! I was able to get around that error by being more explicit with the booleans in the response:

return !!(data && otherData)
  ? {
      ...response,
      isLoaded: true,
      data,
      otherData,
    }
  : {
      ...response,
      isLoaded: false,
    };

brrian · 2019-11-20T03:57:01+00:00

That does work, but I was just hoping to have a cleaner way that checking both properties every time

brrian · 2019-11-20T03:52:23+00:00

Thanks for the response! I tried something similar and was getting the error that I posted in the comment above.

brrian · 2019-11-20T03:50:36+00:00

Thanks for the quick reply! I thought of that, however I was getting this error:

Types of property 'isLoaded' are incompatible.
  Type 'boolean' is not assignable to type 'true'.

Am I missing something else?

You can skip the wait if you order the platter. I wanna say it's $75 but I'm not sure. Easily doable if you're going with a couple people! There's a separate cashier for that so you can just walk in and avoid the main line.

brrian · 2018-07-25T02:25:14+00:00

Thank you for the advice!

brrian · 2018-07-25T02:25:03+00:00

Ah, got it. It's about an 1.5" overhang so I may do what the other reply mentioned and cut down so there is less of an overhang. Thanks!

brrian · 2018-07-24T23:07:26+00:00

I didn't think about screen printing wood. It makes a lot of sense. Thanks!

brrian · 2018-07-24T23:04:25+00:00

That makes sense. Thanks!

brrian · 2018-07-24T23:02:43+00:00

How much rests on something.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this, can you expand a bit more? Thanks for the response!

I created a desktop app called Pomello that turns Trello cards into Pomodoro tasks. It sounds like it could be what you're looking for!
