“Svelte is a radical new approach to building user interfaces. Whereas traditional frameworks like React and Vue do the bulk of their work in the browser, Svelte shifts that work into a compile step that happens when you build your app.”
I went through the interactive tutorial, and I liked it.
“In this post I’ll provide a brief introduction to design systems and describe the advantages and use-cases for having one. After that, I’ll show Base Web, the React implementation of the Base Design System which helps you build accessible React applications super quickly.”
Artificial (but hyper-realistic) faces created by AI techniques.
Looking at various ways to manage state in React.
If you have old VVV hosts setup and you get a certificate authority error when you try to access them via SSL, you might need to update VVV, update your site configs, and reprovision them.
Michael Arrington, Silicon Valley tech leader and founder of TechCrunch, is starting a hedge fund based on the Ripple cryptocurrency. While there have been other funds set up to invest in various digital currencies, this is the first one to actually be denominated in a cryptocurrency, rather than in dollars or euros.
“The async/await syntax in JavaScript ES7 makes it easier to coordinate asynchronous promises. If you need to asynchronously fetch data from multiple databases or APIs in a certain order, you can end up with a spaghetti of promises and callbacks. The async/await construct allows us to express such logic more succinctly with more readable and maintainable code.
This tutorial explains JavaScript async/await syntax and semantics with diagrams and simple examples.”

“If you are a dyed-in-the-wool software developer, you probably don’t need to be convinced to use Git. But even if you aren’t, there are a lot of things you can do with Git that don’t fit the usual mold.”
“In 1993, a Linux engineer found a nonintuitive case with load averages, and with a three-line patch changed them forever from “CPU load averages” to what one might call “system load averages.” His change included tasks in the uninterruptible state, so that load averages reflected demand for disk resources and not just CPUs. ”
A great bit of research explaining not just what “load average” means in general, but how and why Linux load averages are computed differently from other *nix systems.

In a component-oriented application, a suggestion that code should be organized by (more-or-less) stand-alone features, rather than layers of system architecture (authentication, database, ui, api, etc.)
