Hello,

I wouldn't suggest us for 3D rendering or games tbh, as it's react native like.

Our bundle size is pretty good.

We don't currently have web support but are investigating it.

Would you still be curious in checking it out?


Ah, unfortunate. I wasn't expecting the 3d stuff, but web is the most important platform to me. It's just the most accessible distribution platform. Users won't blink at clicking a link and loading a page, but might balk if you ask them to install an app.

Web is also why bundle size matters to me. As many apps have made clear, you can succeed with a stupidly large bundle. No so with a long initial page load.

If you supported web with those small bundles, I'd be very interested. As it stands, I wish you the best of luck.


No. Choose the other FAANG offer


What was your pay difference between the two?

I’d love nice things for taxes in the USA but the pay tends to be higher enough here to offset it for engineers.


I’m an engineering manager. I enjoy reading about how to be a better manager.

I’d probably still agree with your statement though. They also definitely don’t teach us how to manage.


I strongly disagree. It was way easier to reason about things pre hooks.


I think you’re probably referring to the lifecycle methods, which have relatively clear and unambiguous names in class components. The thing is, those names may make you feel comfortable that they do what their respective names imply, but in reality they’re an abstraction away from how React really works under the hood. Hooks, for better or worse, get you a little “closer to the metal,” so to speak.

Also custom hooks are vastly more readable IMHO than HOCs.


Hooks were the beginning of the end of my interest in React. Truly a terrible concept. Way to magic. Not overly aesthetic, not to mention the async programming techniques the js community has developed for over a decade all kinda break down with hooks.

You can’t even just keep using class based as they have no way to consume hooks.

Unit testing of hook based code is non existent IME. It’s some kinda funky E2E feeling test.

React was my favorite framework before. It’s really a shame.

I’m guessing you’re referring to the fact that you can’t access component state like you can with class components. If so, that’s not required to do a unit test. That’s a sign that implementation details are leaking into your tests.


They are just so simple to me that the "magic" never comes into play. Just a function that gets called when something in an array is different between renders.


Why not both


Agree. Content on Chinese tik Tok is very different.


If you want this, pass laws to force that kind of content.


Doctor’s borrowed the title from academics. They didn’t even have it first.


Latinx was invented by white people to alleviate their own guilt. You’re right it’s essentially colonialism.

You can’t remove gender from Latino languages… the entire language would need to be created from scratch.


   > Latinx was invented by white people to alleviate their own guilt. 
Doesn't that describe pretty much all of this nonsense though?
