You post a beacon periodically, other people post beacons, everyone is listening for that UUID and records and instances of it. This is how the whole thing works.
GPS would be a privacy disaster, if it it did work for this. Random rotates beacons are a privacy issue if you don’t trust your phone mfg, which you should not, but as long as it’s an optional thing is O.K. in the way AppleGoogle are proposing.
It's not app engineering, it's a comparison of GPS accuracy (especially indoors) vs a bluetooth beacon. Beacons work great no matter where you go.
I'm currently on the 11th floor of a building. GPS accuracy in the vertical dimension is much worse than horizontal. A bluetooth beacon will tell you if I'm in the same room with someone else.
Interesting. Can you elaborate on this. What do you use this vanillaJS framework for? How do you do DOM manipulation? How much traffic do you get from what you've built using this?
I've heard doing document.getElement... and then modifying the DOM is costly.
> I've heard doing document.getElement... and then modifying the DOM is costly.
So, manipulating the DOM uses more memory than, say, manipulating strings.
But assuming you're going to change something on the DOM anyway, the framework has the exact same API's to manipulate the DOM that you do. And they have their own overhead to figure out what operations they want to run.
Almost by definition, vanilla will always be faster.
That doesn't mean it's always better. If you need the DOM to reflect changing states in complex ways (think Trello or Notion) I'll be the first to admit it's simpler to let someone else's algorithm morph the DOM. And that's okay.
The main performance gotcha to watch out for with hand rolled DOM manipulation is causing a reflow.
Pretty much if you make changes to a DOM element and then read a computed value from it before a new frame renders (like dimensions etc), the browser has to recalculate the page layout before it can return an answer.
Fast: Read -> Modify -> Paint
Slow: Modify -> Read (reflow!) -> Paint
This generally isn’t an issue but if you’re seeing hiccups it’s either GC run wild, synchronous code chewing up the frame budget or frequent reflows.
It helps when one uses Java and .NET server side rendering frameworks, which offered component libraries before nodejs was even an idea, which also allow to package JavaScript and CSS.
Then only use JavaScript where it makes sense.
For example, using Angular, React, Vue to display text or encapsulate three.js is probably not the best use case of customers CPU and bandwidth.
Are you sure it's the lack of social skills? Lot of my male colleagues don't socialize with women at work. They are completely normal outside of work. They just don't want to take risks in today's socio-political climate where any interaction is looked through hyper-deconstructed sexism lens.
Also, cats aren't as social as either dogs or crows (collaborative hunting wise). Cats not coming when summoned is a very common thing, even when they recognise their names.
Cats will come over to you if you squat down, it happens almost instantly. In cat world I guess the human being low means you're nice.
Cats are heavily into patterns. My family always had cats and you could see how they craved for everything to be in order. You come home at 5pm, you eat at 6, you watch TV at 7pm, you turn off the TV at 10:35pm, you brush your teeth at 10:40pm and on and on. Cats know and expect your routine to be the same and they seem to love that.
My elderly parents' cat puts my father to bed. Then she goes off to her favourite sleeping spot. My dad's brother comes to visit at 2pm and the cat gets ready for the visit by coming to sit by the chair before my uncle arrives.
My gf is in a community oriented job here in India. Dominated by women. Men are criticized much harshly, the environment is outright unprofessional with sex talk and gossip constantly at work. Every other day there is another girl crying because her work was criticized (fairly). Maybe try looking outside populist narratives with a more nuanced view, toxicity flows both ways.
That line just proves how much of an echo chamber this place really is when it comes to international affairs.
I live in India. I just had lunch with my colleague who is a Kashmiri native. His parents recently arrived from that state, and his father has returned back to run his medical shop. Though the situation is not ideal, it is a far cry away from being a breach of democracy or humanitarian concerns. The government has evoked constitutional law to maintain peace and order, largely as preventive measures against extremist operations and organisation. This has certainly affected the lives of daily citizens, no doubt, but the way western media blows it out of proportion one can just wonder whether it is genuinely clueless journalism or ideologically motivated smear campaign.
The double catch is that neither Zeus's nor Sisyphus's state of mind matter, skipping a day or two is detrimental to both the good and the bad interpretation. If Sisyphus is unhappy pushing a rock every day (the first level interpretation) taking it away gives false hope and fosters doubt. If Sisyphus becomes happy or fulfilled pushing the rock, taking it away temporarily removes that satisfaction and again leads to doubt.
In other words, arbitrary and random work, putting someone in an uncertain and unpredictable situation is worse than constant and well-defined work.
I think there is a law in Canada against mis-gendering people. Lot of popular tech companies have explicit CoC guideline against mis-gendering. StackOverflow recently fired a moderator for proposing to use gender neutral pro-nouns instead of individual preferred pronouns, even when there is no official CoC defined as such.
> Every person who is an employee has a right to freedom from harassment in the workplace because of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression by his or her employer or agent of the employer or by another employee.
(there is also a similar paragraph for landlords)
> “harassment” means engaging in a course of vexatious comment or conduct that is known or ought reasonably to be known to be unwelcome
