Would be nice to pair this with something like FlightRadar where you can see relevant flights in proximity to you and select them.

I don't think the critique is that "welfare is objectively preferable" to a high paying career, but rather that the effort:reward ratio isn't scalable to society at large (without some level of social cohesion, I guess).

What does this actually mean? All flights around JFK are cancelled until further notice? Can someone translate? Does this affect EWR and LGA?

Isn't this kinda like asking "why does my gun need a safety if I'm the only one consciously pulling the trigger"?

Glad to see at least a few mentions of K2 here. IIUC, excess Vitamin D can increase calcification in arteries or something like that, and K2 helps avoid that. But I've also seen mentions of people needing to be wary of K2 if they have heart issues or take blood thinners. It's an exhausting cycle of wondering whether you're truly helping or harming yourself unless you really become an expert in all these subtle things. I stopped taking the Zinc/Magnesium/Vitamin D combo from Costco as a result since it has no K2. Curious if anyone has any safe/vetted Magnesium, Vitamin D, and K2 combo recommendations.

I don't know what the tipping point is, but it'd probably take more than one. I've commuted through backed up/stopped/solid red sections on a motorcycle where I just get to lane-split and cruise through, and it'd still stay red.

Most of the spam calls I get these days are just silence. I'll answer them occasionally and just listen, but even after 5-10 seconds no one says anything. Who benefits from that? I really don't get it.

So for small apps, the final bundle size is significantly smaller since there's no framework "runtime" code included. What about large apps though?

Is anyone satisfied with their Fossil watch? I have a Fossil Q Explorist and it's so slow and laggy that I almost wonder if I got a lemon. It takes like 3 taps to click or swipe before anything registers. I'm pretty sure my original Moto 360 is faster. I only wear it because it looks decent and occasionally works. I really wanted to like it, but my experience has just been ... bad.

Nice, this was a good refresher on some of the lesser known parts of the newer specs.

+1 for explaining the event loop and job queues

-1 for no semi-colons though (kidding ;))

Manuals just make driving fun IMO. I've been trying to find a manual 2013 to 2016 Audi A4 for weeks/months now, and its dishearteningly difficult to find any without expanding my search to be nationwide.

Are you trying to incite the mob with this post? If you read the latest comments by the Webpack team, it seems pretty clear that "Webpack" is not squatting on parcel scopes on npm.

As much as I'd like to buy a house outside of California, I can't imagine living in cold weather constantly. I really need sunlight/warmth, and I can't help but feel like I would miss California's weather.
