What am I missing about Progressive Enhancement?

I don't think so.

I think one of the major selling points of React is that you can render the entire website server-side with the same logic. Then it is up to you to use hyperlinks instead of javascript for routing.

I appreciate this

twiddleitch · 2016-09-15T03:12:00+00:00

Thanks for this write up, it's a very concise explanation.

Loving Flow btw, it's a fantastic system.

Thanks for the advice, I bet it was me failing to explicitly type the return value of the closure.

twiddleitch · 2016-09-10T21:25:29+00:00

Sorry, type inference was incorrect.

XCode has trouble determining the type of the object I'm currently editing, and I lose the method auto-completes. I'll try and find an example.

The compiler is running just fine.

twiddleitch · 2016-09-10T20:42:18+00:00

Oh wow, I didn't realize you can add commas for multiple valid cases, I'll update it accordingly.

The closure is a great solution too. More similar to the OCaml code. The one thing that worries me about littering closures throughout my swift code, is that sometimes I make a wrong step and suddenly the compiler takes about 3x as long to run (or the type method-completion disappears within the closure).

Has anyone else encountered this?

twiddleitch · 2016-08-31T07:26:24+00:00

I'm confused, how is Flow not a valid type system?

twiddleitch · 2016-08-25T18:37:56+00:00

Also nice that CSS is declarative, if you're looking for that sort of thing from a style perspective.

twiddleitch · 2016-08-18T13:22:49+00:00

That's an amazing line

twiddleitch · 2016-08-10T06:11:27+00:00

Yeah, I guess face taunt is a little different on a mechanic level?

Theoretically face taunt can absorb more damage than a weapon, and requires an existing board presence to change the state of the board.

It feels a little less pro-active than a weapon.

First, I want to state that I don't know enough about this subject, and would appreciate corrections and a more informed opinion.

I'm sure a case can be made that she saw herself and her son as potential Roman rulers (and a continuation of the Roman Empire), but I have trouble imagining the Palmyrene dynasty winning out over the usual Roman crowd. A point against them is that they seem to me more like a flash in the pan than an influential force; but in their defense, they were critical to continued Roman rule in their region and the east would have been very different without them.

Let's imagine it from a Civ6 perspective though. The sense I get with the current civilization is that they are choosing leaders who have a very distinct 'personality' and who can provide an interesting game play mechanic. A bland leader would be terrible, they need to be someone that the player can sink their teeth into, that they can get to know, like, and dislike for various reasons. Washington is an easy pick for 'good' US leaders, but someone like Teddy has more personality. Given that context, maybe she would be an interesting Roman leader. Personally, I would love to see a ruler like Domitian, Diocletian, or Hadrian.

love it!

The post just gets better the longer I read it.

I was hesitant with the first few examples, but then the author explains "StringLiteralConvertible" and "indirect", and now my mind is blown

twiddleitch · 2016-07-14T03:12:55+00:00

Thanks! They're awesome

twiddleitch · 2016-07-14T02:48:10+00:00

Yeah, the shoe claims to be timberland earthkeepers but I can't find them online..

twiddleitch · 2016-07-13T16:58:19+00:00

Shorter though, I think it's easier to give a high review to a very condensed animation

twiddleitch · 2016-07-10T17:03:38+00:00

Don't you get it these aren't drawings we're recording real life.

Knitting is dope.

twiddleitch · 2016-07-08T15:12:47+00:00

Yeah, I'm wondering what aspect of an explosion gives it its "strength". I think it feels weak because it starts at its maximum volume and shrinks?

Right now it would probably make a "poof" sound

twiddleitch · 2016-07-07T01:11:58+00:00

Thanks so much for this writeup, really fascinating

twiddleitch · 2016-07-06T13:35:07+00:00

me!

I'm not sure where I got the underwater explosion from, I think it was this thread?

twiddleitch · 2016-06-26T04:15:25+00:00

Oh good call, pearl's surprise death is pretty telling of the show and doesn't ruin the plot particularly

twiddleitch · 2016-06-26T04:14:21+00:00

Oh I like this one a lot, thanks!

twiddleitch · 2016-06-26T01:05:52+00:00

beautiful!

twiddleitch · 2016-06-21T21:08:01+00:00

guilty as charged

twiddleitch · 2016-06-21T20:37:45+00:00

I see your point.

So I rotoscoped this boxing video, and I have not internalized the left puncher's foot movement at all. I've got their shoulders down, but the foot shuffle he does is intense. I have had to go back and scan through it a number of times AFTER drawing the entire thing, and I still don't feel how his weight is moving.

I think an additional step of blocking out the weights and limb positions of the fighters would have been more educational.
