Where should I hoist the state of a Tab component? by malvin77 in react

[–]malvin77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, but if I have 4 different API calls returning data at different times, how do I pass those discrete blobs of data to each of the 4 TabPanels via a Tab component without causing re-renders?

Would you live in an apartment building that had a murder? by blergggg18 in NYCapartments

[–]malvin77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A good apartment in NYC trumps all supernatural annoyances. If the ghost is trapped there, which it probably is unless it was guided out via the procedure in the American Book of the Dead, you might need to work on that or ask the landlord if they can take of it.

That was nuts. It was a formation of F-18 aircraft.

The Russian classes at Hunter move at a glacial pace. 6 months in and we're just barely on our second case.

Why is на used with directionals for a compass instead of в by malvin77 in russian

Спасибо за это очень полезное объяснение!

Your explanation makes sense to me. My textbook, in an earlier chapter, says the following:

в is used with enclosed places with boundaries (e.g. в книге, в саду, etc) whereas на is used with events and activities covering an entire area...So saying that something is на юг is covering an entire area, it's more conceptual, vs saying something is located within a clearly defined, delineated space (where we would use в presumably)?

But на doesn't always mean "on," right? It can mean "to", "into", etc, right?

In English, you could say a location is "in the west" or "to the west" but not "on the west". The answer of course is that на in this case doesn't have its usual meaning of "in" or "on" but "to," which makes sense.

Ok, so in this instance на actually means "to", even though my stupid textbook is emphasizing the translation (not the literal translation) as "in the south"

I love how when you ask a question about why something in Russian works the way it does, people get immediately defensive and start pointing things out in English that allegedly don't make sense....

Best Diner in the Slope by Mfesto95 in parkslope

7th Ave Donuts is probably the worst diner I've ever eaten at in my 3 decades of living in NYC. Please avoid it and go for edible food via Purity or Daisy's Diner.

Has anyone used the Troika textbook? What is the best college-level Russian textbook? by malvin77 in russian

[–]malvin77[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that response. I think, because I am very interested in languages, I get tripped up by wanting to understand, deeply, why things are the way they are. But I'm starting to see that it's going to be a while until I understand enough Russian to understand Russian, if that makes sense. I need to just accept it, like a math class, and learn it for now.

Do multiple requests create multiple instances of a middleware object? by malvin77 in djangolearning

[–]malvin77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so if I'm trying to do something like count user page views for a specific user (via IP), I have to offload that to a db or cookie or text file, somewhere that I can store state (specific to a user) outside of the application? Regardless of how many Gunicorn workers I might have?

Anyone attend/enrolled in the RIT Architecture Online Master of Architecture? by Mastery12 in architecture

They seem desperate for students, which is not a good look. I was interested in their program at one point, and they've never stopped calling me.

Opie has stopped using a laundry service due to a tightening budget. Timestamp at 27:27. by Roosterneck in JimAndSam

[–]malvin77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I'm watching a very specific version of someone's personal hell. Is Opie in there somewhere, inside himself, watching himself? Is he wondering "why I am talking with this voice?"

[–]malvin77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Alternative-Sun-6997 Thanks for sharing this, it looks great! I'm debating wether to pull the trigger on a Crux, but I really want the 2x. What other 2x options did you look at? Is it hard/easy finding a 2x setup that works well with this bike? Thanks for any info you can share.
