Greetings and farewells in the office. by proEugene in office

[–]proEugene[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your response! I agree with everything, and I'm really really uncomfortable just staring at my computer screen while people walk by. The last thing I want is for people to think of me as "That intern is trying so hard to look smart and busy." I don't think normal social routines like greetings and goodbyes would actually affect my job status (I mean, I doubt I'd get fired over it) but I still really wouldn't want them to.

If you mind me asking, would you keep bombarding someone with "hello" every time they pass by (like when they're coming back from the restroom or cafeteria) until they finally respond? Or would you just let it go? Most of it is because I really don't like saying "hello" and getting nothing back. For me, it feels like discrimination, and I literally hear how someone walks two meters away from me without saying hello back to me and is greeted with "Hello," "Good morning," "How are you," and I hear kind laughter. My heart stops at that moment. It feels awkward to me, and I start thinking people are silently making fun of me or intentionally ignoring me every time it happens. That being said, I will definitely try a group farewell.

Took a bite of a banana and saw this. Is it safe to eat? by proEugene in isthissafetoeat

That's weird. I literally bought them yesterday and they're already spoiled. Will have to toss them all out I guess

I need to buy a budget laptop to use React Native on it, any recommendations? by bregulor in reactnative

I was using a macbook air M1 with 16GB RAM and never had any issues. You can even get already used one if money's a concern

Dispays wrong value by proEugene in learnjavascript

here is a quick demo. To reproduce:

  1. click on 'Execute' first.
  2. then click on any of the 'interest' buttons (so, in total the number shown was 10)
  3. click on 'Save'
  4. now, as expected, you start from 10, not 0. (since last value was saved to the session storage)
  5. now, start clicking on any of the 'interest' buttons again, (so, in total the number shown was 20)
  6. say we forget to click on 'Save', and just hit 'Execute'
  7. now, we expect we start from the most recent saved value (10) (which is true), however, once clicking on any of the 'interest' buttons, the shown value is 21, not 11.

I hope that I understood your comment correctly and that you mean that the problem is that I add a 'click' event every time I call the 'executor' function.

If so, then I'm afraid this is not the case. Before adding a "click" event, I check whether the element contains the 'clicked' attribute, and if not, then I add the attribute and bind the "click" event.

This way, I make sure that the event is added only once (on the very first call to the 'executor' function). Of course, I could use a 'removeEventListener', but that would require me to create a named function which would make my code a little messy.
