I don't know, he made a great point about `useEffect` and its data flow and composability problem, which I've known for some time. The part about top down state being one giant mutable variable is true, but it's also how functional programming languages do it with a state-monad-esque runtime, like Elm. It's mostly a footgun when you're irresponsible cutting across many redux state machines in a single component.

I think the author is kind of a mediocre frontend eng but it's also true that modern react + hooks are full of footguns that can get very ugly. It's the opposite outcome of what react was originally designed for, to make it easy to do the right thing.

Heat dissipation is the killer

I really enjoyed Harry Potter and the Methods of rationality. I understand not everyone would like such an intelligent main character though.

Campendium misses a lot of actual spots. It might have one camping spot listed for a 25 mile radius but there are actually tons of spots in that area. It's not precise enough imo and only guides me where to start looking on satellite photos and BLM maps again.

How do you find BLM spots?

I've often had to resort to google satellite photos and referenced flat dirt patches with BLM territory maps to make sure I wasn't on private land. Wish there was an easier way.

Seriously? Who cares? That's not target demographic.

The point of a flagship phone is to push the envelope, not compete with midrange devices. If someone else is filling the midrange niche better than Google I don't really see a problem, buy that phone instead. Google can better differentiate with a flagship and by doing so pushes the rest of the industry forward on features. These features that were costly to develop will later propagate to midrange.

Stop using a big bank then

Tech workers are still a minority in the bay area.

Lets not forget property taxes, which would wipe out again half of that if not almost all of that.

Because a house is a 15 or 30 year loan. Their job market or high pay may not extend that long

I need enough money to support myself and have influence while working on things society will not pay me for yet will benefit them all long term.

Why would you only have 2% yield?
