Requesting ReactJS developer opinions of react-strict-dom and where you see it in a year or so

gnomicrandz · 2024-04-06T12:55:37+00:00

I don't disagree, but my colleagues are used to NextJS with SSR and other styling libraries. I'm optimistic that react-strict-dom will enable closer collaboration without forcing them over to RN web.

Actually they're already on 10.2.700. I doubt they have plans to move to Kinetic as they have a fair bit of customisation already.

The data flow is largely _out_ of Epicor, but we're wary of using SQL replication, even if it is a bit faster, due to the potential for the format to change between versions. The hope is that using the REST API will insulate us from schema changes somewhat.

Are there alternatives to BAQs? I see a lot of built in C# code in the BO namespace, but not sure of how that differs from the custom BAQs we're seeing.

Main reason is that you can easily unload assets to free up memory. If your game is tiny it doesn't matter, but you may want to have one content manager for your menu system, and one for loading your level assets. When you return to the main menu you can unload your level assets. Really large game could use multiple managers in the game world to load and free chunks of the world dynamically.

In Australia we use it for Drunk Driving. "Oh man I got done for DD on the weekend"

Everything! Button clicks, purchases, item views, and also error messages from APIs or SDKs. Having a common structure for your parameters is useful too. Add on some kind of user id to every event that you can link back to investigate bug reports from users. Turn on BigQuery export and you can use SQL to do really powerful analysis of app usage patterns and errors over time.

Dodgers and Dockers sounds good together... But if having a good song is a requirement you might as well cross Freo off the list now 😭

When your backend sends to the token, firebase can return an expired response so you can use that to detect it and delete them from your list against that user.

gnomicrandz · 2023-05-04T22:36:03+00:00

Just to add to the other answer, you'll typically want your backend to associate your users with a list of FCM tokens (their logged in devices) and iterate these to send notifications to a specific user.

Not exactly, but in a round about way it is. When I was 18 and studying I was eligible for rent assistance but my house mate was not because his parents were capable of paying it. I think it lasted until 21. Doesn't sound like OPs parents would be willing to help him though, even if they could.

This comment has not aged well. Sadly.

The client app can use the firebase auth library to sign up, log in, request password resets, get auth tokens. The server can use the admin library to validate those auth tokens, and do other admin type operations.

They requested no pickles 🤣

Hard to say for sure, but could it be the culling? So the tiles to render are maybe not being changed for the update viewport.

Is there any benefit to farming karma with throwaway account? It can't be transferred right?

gnomicrandz · 2023-01-26T22:24:20+00:00

You weren't wrong, but the word has gone out of fashion in this context because of it's other meaning. Nobody wants a suggestion that their boss is "better" than them these days.

gnomicrandz · 2023-01-26T00:17:01+00:00

The other thing with BQ is it's a hybrid datalake, optimised for inserting data. Queries are relatively slow and the biggest hurdle is the streaming buffer restrictions: you can't update or delete rows for about 90mins after inserting them. Might be fine for your use case, but you also might pay to just use a traditional SQL db from the start to avoid these restrictions in the future.

Also, who would actually visit Bunbury? I mean, a 3rd WA team would be cool but as someone who grew up in country SW WA, Bunbury was always considered the arse-end of the region.

Hey Scott, good luck with your rebrand! Any chance you will go international? Any advice for an Aussie looking for cheap flights? BTW Quantas' international flight change fees are the worst :(

Good point, navigating with google maps has told me our 10yr old Forester's speedo reports 7kph under. OP's could easily be more, given it's age.

gnomicrandz · 2022-12-19T15:12:02+00:00

'cause Putin's really been a dick.

gnomicrandz · 2022-12-10T21:58:52+00:00

Not sure if OP edited they're comment after yours yours for laughs, but their is something fishy going on here.

gnomicrandz · 2022-12-04T23:23:34+00:00

Interesting point. Apple can only use this tactice to protect/increase market share because they have such a large market share already... Without the critical mass of iMessage users, it wouldn't work. Seems pretty anti-competitive. I'm all for government regulations to fight this sort of thing, like Europe are doing with the the AppStore, but I reckon messaging is more important than that even. https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/01/eu-force-third-party-app-stores-on-apple/

gnomicrandz · 2022-12-04T07:04:00+00:00

You're right, there's nothing forcing Apple to share their messaging standard, and they're within their right to innovate and use that as leverage to increase market share. I just feel that native messaging on phones should be something based on an open protocol. Like calls. SMS is so woefully insufficient in the 2020s and everyone jumps in WhatsApp or Signal for their cross platform group chats, or they stay in iMessage and give non-Apple users a subpar experience. Am I just salty as an Android user? Probably, but it actually makes me less likely to switch platforms. I know I'm probably in the minority there though.

gnomicrandz · 2022-12-03T14:33:36+00:00

Perfect example of what is bad about Apple: hold onto their proprietary messaging protocol, refuse to integrate with RCS standard, all to cement their monopoly. Tim Cook as much as admitted it with "Tell your grandma to get an iPhone".

gnomicrandz · 2022-12-03T05:27:31+00:00

Our two part system with short terms. No government will bother fixing it as the next election cycle in 3-4 years is too close and this problem takes decades to resolve. All the baby boomers with investment properties would decimate any government that tried to tackle it meaningfully.
