This is a joke, right? Warm water occupies more volume than cold water. Also, ice that is on LAND and running off into the OCEAN will raise sea level. Also water from melting ice caps that evaporates goes back into the ocean and refreezing on polar caps is slowing down, so more water in the ocean. It does not have to melt straight into the ocean. Sea level is rising due to ice melting. It is a fact.

D3 can use GPU shaders and is far more flexible. This is ok for canned vis, not for custom data vis. Like Vega vs D3. D3 wins every time.

I can't go inside Whole foods after this. Same reason I won't answer an Amazon recruiter's email. It's disturbing to think of the race to the bottom (in terms of worker compensation and benefits) that Amazon brings to industries it's taken over.

So you're telling me that if I state a fact but don't back it up then I get down-voted? On so many occasions I've stated facts without explanation that got up-voted. So what I'm trying to say is: the idiocy of crowds.

A lot of them are business accounts, bots and fake or throwaway. I have 3. How can anyone be sure that each account is a person. It says a lot about general IQ on HN that I got 4 downvotes for suggesting that Facebook has less users (real ones) than China has people (real ones, too!)

China has more people than Facebook has users.

I understand that, but suggesting it as a tool for prototyping and easily sharing apps with others (which was the concern I was responding to) does not warrant multiple down votes, unless the readers here are absolute assholes?

I thought the issue was him trying to get it on his cofounder's phone?

Use Expo.io ... if you're building in React Native, Expo is the easiest way to distribute apps (even on the Web with Snack)

So essentially the HN commenting UX is one of walking on egg shells.

Down voted for asking a question? The system is definitely broke in such instances.
