As randycupertino pointed out, my comment was about teenagers being ridiculous. That is hardly newsworthy, but the extent to which the social-media-industrial complex has elevated this nonsense, should be.
Society, by dismantling the old illiberal structures (which I agree, were pretty bad) and offering no real substitutes, has done great harm to its future generations.
Indeed. For example, I am deeply amazed at how in Flux and many of its derivatives Actions are not executable behaviours, but messages describing an action to be performed, while ActionCreators are the actual, well.. "actions".
As someone with FRP experience, what do you think is the minumum viable set of functional transformers (like map, filter etc.) that should be implemented for a library like this?
But seriously, Fastflux just continues further in the logical direction established by Redux (and arguably React itself) -- a more reactive approach to software development.
Fastflux does this by using an implementation of the Observable FRP primitive as a superclass for stores and actions.
> Thought is more fluid; putting it into words concretizes it, collapses the possibilities of the waveform. Somewhat, formalizes it.
That is a very good description.
I discussed this topic with a colleague recently, and we both agreed that putting thoughts into words takes conscious effort. Though I suspect that is not so for the majority of people, whose default mode of thinking is distinctly verbal, even when not talking or writing.
