Yeah the shelves are already super bare at all the grocery stores in my town. Entire displays just bare metal with nothing on them. There was an entire empty aisle at Walmart.
go ahead. post another "take". tell me that eating hot dogs is ableist. say jackbox games doesnt center bipoc voices. accuse a famous person of grooming their younger spouse. come up with a woke way to say race mixing is wrong. call me gay for liking dessert.
Everyone wants to feel like they’re involved in the decision making process until it comes time to actually do the thing required to get a seat at the table: attend a fucking a protest. Organizers decide. Internet nobodies don’t.
He’s used that line on his family plenty of times
Before this loaded I thought it was going to be the Sikh farmers getting hit by the water cannons
Black bagging someone for the crime of being brown when I see a ring on their finger and suddenly I’m like, “oh shit my bad didn’t know you were married”
There’s definitely overhead to spinning up and running a JS interpreter (although it uses Hermes instead of V8, which helps) as well as communicating between JS and the native layer. I think the extent to which that stuff results in bad performance on its own is greatly exaggerated and is acceptable for a lot of use cases.
For the extra effort of learning how to optimize RN code, you get the benefits of:
- not maintaining 3 codebases to deploy to iOS, Android, and the web
- transferable knowledge if you have a lot of JS and/or React devs who don’t know the languages for native dev
- OTA updates, meaning you don’t need Google and Apple’s approval every single time you wanna change styling on a button or fix a bug and your users can’t remain on ancient buggy versions forever
I’d say when dev resources are limited, React Native is a good choice. Was it a good choice for Microsoft? Seems like the answer is no, but that could easily be the result of bad org charts just as much as the failure of individual devs.
As far as vibe coding goes, I was very happy with it right up until I wasn’t. I hit the same “this is a mess I’d better rewrite it” wall I always do with side projects except I hit it faster. At work I’ve found AI useful for speeding up monotonous tasks, but I’ve never had luck with just letting it fly and not giving the code a close review as soon as it’s generated. Prompting AI to fix a bug it created seems to create more bugs just as often.
It’s possible. I wouldn't make that assumption without profiling the code though.

I can’t really stress how much the cops are a big part of it. They already keep telling him they’re not his personal attack dogs and there are ways to file claims that don’t involve calling 911. He just keeps doing it and acting like he knows the law and therefore the cops have to do what he says.
He says once he has his last surgery he’ll be “normal” and no one will be able to tell. Which like, he passes just fine. And I don’t blame him for trying to find a way out of people treating him like shit for things he can’t control. It’s also just some major internalized transphobia to be like, “eww I’m not trans”.
We need an emoji of that guy going “Israel #1! No politic!”
My brother is trans but is in complete denial about it and keeps threatening to call the cops on people who refer to him as trans. Like, he’s been on T for over a decade and has had top surgery. He’s working on bottom surgery now. I don’t know how to get it through his head that the cops are not on his side here. Sharing random Snapchat screenshots of people misgendering him and him threatening to sue them. No pig is gonna give a shit about that aside from the annoyance they’ll feel at being involved in the first place.
I fear that standing at the bow of a ship that’s attempting to breaking a fascist blockade is now gender goals
It works on occasion for certain issues if people do it en masse. Just not a path to systemic change
“I have some news for you” is a facetious way that people sometimes imply someone might be trans. But the joke is that the “news” is a literal news story. Maybe with the added twist that it’s a subject that’s nerdy in a way that fits with stereotypes of trans people. Not sure about the last part though.
Surprisingly engaging narrative for a clicker
